Answer:
Tom has 70 cards, and Harry has 28 cards.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let h = number of cards Harry has.
Then the number of cards Tom has is 2 1/2 * h = 2.5h.
Together they have 2.5h + h = 3.5h number of cards.
Together they have 98 cards.
3.5h = 98
h = 98/3.5
h = 28
Harry has 28 cards.
Tom has 2.5h = 2.5 * 28 = 70
Answer: Tom has 70 cards, and Harry has 28 cards.
Answer:
1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
If 6/18 of the cartons are vanilla that means that those are the odds of you picking a vanilla at random
6/18=1/3
For this problem we can represent the situation as a rectangle triangle.
x: depth of water.
40: Base. "Antonio pulls the lily to one side, keeping the stem straight, until the blossom touches the water at a spot"
x + 8: Hypotenuse. "He notices water lily sticking straight up from the water, whose blossom is 8 cm above the water's surface." Antonio pulls the lily to one side, keeping the stem straight, until the blossom touches the water at a spot".
By the Pythagorean theorem we have:
x ^ 2 + 40 ^ 2 = (x + 8) ^ 2
Clearing x:
x ^ 2 + 1600 = x ^ 2 + 16x + 64
x ^ 2 - x ^ 2 = 16x + 64 - 1600
0 = 16x -1536
1536 = 16x
1536/16 = x
x = 96
answer:
1) x ^ 2 + 40 ^ 2 = (x + 8) ^ 2
2) the depth of the water is
x = 96
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let d be the diameter of the wheel.
Circumference = πd
(35.325 m)/(25 revolutions) = (1.413 m)/revolution
πd = 1.413
d = 1.413/π = 0.45 m
Answer:
p = -2/5 or 3/8
Step-by-step explanation:
|5 − 3p| + 9 = 13p + 8
|5 − 3p| = 13p − 1
If 5 − 3p is positive:
5 − 3p = 13p − 1
6 = 16p
p = 3/8
If 5 − 3p is negative:
-(5 − 3p) = 13p − 1
-5 + 3p = 13p − 1
-4 = 10p
p = -2/5
Alternatively, we can square both sides of the equation:
(5 − 3p)² = (13p − 1)²
25 − 30p + 9p² = 169p² − 26p + 1
0 = 160p² + 4p − 24
0 = 40p² + p − 6
0 = (5p + 2) (8p − 3)
p = -2/5 or 3/8
