Answer:

The three numbers are 56/5, -39/5 and 78/5.

Step-by-step explanation:

EQUATION 1:

First number: x

Second number: y

Third number: z

x + y + z = 19

EQUATION 2:

Sum of following is 77

Twice the first number: 2x

5 times the second number: 5y

6 times the third number: 6z

So, 2x + 5y + 6z = 77

EQUATION 3:

Difference between first and second number is 19.

x - y = 19

Equation 1: x + y + z = 19

Equation 2: 2x + 5y + 6z = 77

Equation 3: x - y = 19

1. Find x in terms of y

x - y = 19

x = 19 + y

2. Find y in terms of z by putting the value of x in first and second equation

  x + y + z = 19

  (19 + y)+ y + z = 19

  2y + z = 19 - 19

  2y + z = 0

  y = -z/2

and

2(19+y)+5y+6z=77

now putting the value of y in this equation

2(19-z/2)+5(-z/2)+6z=77

38 - z -5z/2 +6z = 77

5z/2 + 38 = 77

5z/2 = 39

z = 78/5

Now, y = -z/2

y = (-78/5)/2

y = -39/5

and  x = 19 + y

x = 19 - 39/5

x = 56/5

Therefore, the three numbers are 56/5, -39/5 and 78/5.

Aleksandr [31]

We have been given that a jeweler has 5 rings, each weighing 12 g, made of an alloy of 20% silver and 80% gold.

Upon melting all 5 rings, the weight of the material will be 12*5=60 grams.

We have been given that the alloy contains 20% silver and 80% gold. Further, let us assume that x grams of silver are added to the melted material so that it has 64% gold and 36% silver.

Therefore, we can set up an equation:

\text{Amount of gold before mixing}=\text{Amount of gold after mixing}

Therefore, we get an equation:

80\%\text{ of 60 gram}=64\%\text{ of (x+60) gram}

0.80*60=0.64(x+60)\\48=0.64x+38.4\\0.64x=9.6\\x=\frac{9.6}{0.64} \\x=15

Therefore, 15 grams of silver must be added to the melted material in order to reduce the gold content to 64%.

A side of a square is A = 8^(3/2) inches. Using the area formula A = s2, determine the area of the square.?A = 24 square inches
VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

512 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

If A = s², and s=8^{\frac{3}{2}}, then

A=s^2=(8^{\frac{3}{2}})^2 and

A=s^2=8^{\frac{6}{2}} which simplifies to

A=s^2=8^3 which simplifies to

A=s^2=512

Therefore, if A=s^2 and s^2=512, then

A = 512 square inches

PLEASE SOLVE FOR Y: <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=7y%2B4%3D3-2y" id="TexFormula1" title="7y+4=3-2y" alt="7y+4=3-2y" align="a
ehidna [41]

Answer:

y = \frac{-1}{9}

Step-by-step explanation:

7y + 4 = 3 - 2y

add 2y  to both sides

7y + 4 + 2y = 3 -2y + 2y \\9y + 4 = 3

add -4 to both sides

9y + 4 -4 = 3 - 4 \\9y = -1

divide both sides by 9

\frac{9y}{9} = \frac{-1}{9} \\

y = \frac{-1}{9}
