Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

sum the parts of the ratio, 5 + 6 + 3 = 14 parts

Divide number of members by 14 to find the value of one part of the ratio.

560 ÷ 14 = 40 ← value of 1 part of the ratio

(i)

number of women = 6 × 40 = 240

(ii)

number of children = 3 × 40 = 120

since we know those two triangles are similar then we can use proportions.

$\cfrac{AE}{AB}=\cfrac{AD}{AC}\implies \cfrac{14-8}{2x}=\cfrac{14}{2x+4}\implies \cfrac{6}{2x}=\cfrac{14}{2x+4}\implies \cfrac{3}{x}=\cfrac{14}{2x+4} \\\\\\ 6x+12=14x\implies 12=8x\implies \cfrac{12}{8}=x\implies \cfrac{3}{2}=x \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ AB=2x+4\implies AB=2\left( \frac{3}{2} \right)+4\implies AB=3+4\implies AB=7$

What is are the solutions to | x+4 |= 3x-5?

bonufazy [111]

Answer:

x = $\frac{9}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The absolute value always returns a positive value but the expression inside can be positive or negative, that is

x + 4 = 3x - 5 ( subtract 3x from both sides )

- 2x + 4 = - 5 (subtract 4 from both sides )

- 2x = - 9 ( divide both sides by - 2 )

x = $\frac{9}{2}$

-(x + 4) = 3x - 5

- x - 4 = 3x - 5 ( subtract 3x from both sides )

- 4x - 4 = - 5 ( add 4 to both sides )

- 4x = - 1 ( divide both sides by - 4 )

x = $\frac{1}{4}$

As a check

Substitute these values into the equation and if both sides are equal then they are the solutions

| $\frac{9}{2}$ + 4 | = | $\frac{17}{2}$ | = $\frac{17}{2}$

right side = $\frac{27}{2}$ - 5 = $\frac{17}{2}$

left side = right side , thus x = $\frac{9}{2}$ is a solution

check second solution

| $\frac{1}{4}$ + 4 | = | $\frac{17}{4}$ | = $\frac{17}{4}$

right side = $\frac{3}{4}$ - 5 = - $\frac{17}{4}$

right side ≠ left sides, hence not a solution

Your question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

The function below can be used to calculate the cost of making a long distance call, f(m), which is based on a $2.50 initial charge and a fee of $0.12 per minute, m, that the call lasts, f(m) = 2.5 + 0.12 m. If Natalie paid $6.82 for one call, how many minutes long was it

It was 36 minutes long

Step-by-step explanation:

∵ The function is f(m) = 2.5 + 0.12 m, where f(m) is the cost of a

distance call for m minutes

∵ Natalie paid $6.82 for one call

- Substitute f(m) by 6.82 in the equation above

∴ 6.82 = 2.5 + 0.12 m

- Subtract 2.5 from both sides

∴ 4.32 = 0.12 m

- Divide both sides by 0.12

∴ 36 = m

∴ The length of the call = 36 minutes

It was 36 minutes long
