Answer:

<em>Zeina had 35 books and Ali had 5 books</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Equations</u>

We know Zeina has seven times as many books as Ali. If we call

x = Number of books Ali has

Then Zeina has

7x = Number of books Zeina has

We also know if Zeina gave Ali 15 books, they would have the same number of books, thus:

x + 15 = 7x - 15

Adding 15:

x + 15 +15 = 7x

Subtracting x:

15 +15 = 7x - x

Operating:

30 = 6x

Dividing by 6:

x = 30 / 6

x =5

7x = 35

Thus Zeina had 35 books and Ali had 5 books

A man walks along a straight path at a speed of 4 ft/s. A searchlight is located on the ground 20 ft from the path and is kept f
krek1111 [17]

Answer:

0.128rad/sec

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the between the man and the point on the path

θ = the angle

dx/dt = 4 ft/s

dθ/dt = rate is the searchlight rotating when the man is 15 ft from the point on the path closest to the searchlight

tan θ = x/20 ft

Cross Multiply

20tan θ = x

dx/dt = 20sec² θ dθ/dt

dθ/dt = 1/20 × cos² θ dx/dt

dθ/dt= 1/20 × cos² θ × 4

dθ/dt = 1/5 × cos² θ

Note : cos θ = 4/5

dθ/dt = 1/5 × (4/5)²

dθ/dt = 16/125

dθ/dt = 0.128rad/sec

Cara has $25 to buy dry pet food a pound of dog food costs $2 and treats are $1 apiece if she buys 9 pounds of food the greatest
zzz [600]

Cost of each pound of dog food = $2 .

Total cost of 9 pounds of dog food = 9 * 2 = $18.

Let us assume number of treats she can buy = t.

Cost of each treat = $1.

Cost of t number of treats = 1*t = 1t .

Total money Cara has = $25.

We can setup an inequality as,

Total cost of dog food + total cost of t number of treats ≤ 25.

18 + 1t ≤ 25.

Subtracting 18 from both sides, we get

18 + 1t -18  ≤ 25-18.

1t ≤ 7 or t ≤ 7.

So, she can purchase 7 or less treats.

What constant term is necessary to complete the perfect square trinomial pictured in the algebra tiles?
gayaneshka [121]
The algebra tiles show two equal factors. They are (x + 4).


Then, the perfect square is the product of the two equal factors, (x + 4) * (x +4).


That is (x + 4)^2.


Then develop that perfect square to find the constant term.


(x + 4)^2 = x^2 + 8x + 16.


That means that the constant term needed to complete the trinomial is 16.
