The bigger of two numbers is four more

Mathematics
1 answer:
Otrada [13]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

X=the smaller

y=the larger

The bigger of two numbers is four more than the smaller, then:

y=x+4

one more than twice the smaller is the same as the larger, then

1+2x=y

We have the following system of equations:

y=x+4

y=2x+1

We solve this system by equal values method:

x+4=2x+1

x-2x=1-4

-x=-3

x=3

We find the value of "y"now:

y=x+4

y=3+4

y=7

the values of x and y are:

x=3

y=7

Step-by-step explanation:

In ΔCDE, \overline{CE}
abruzzese [7]

Answer:

m\angle CDE=14^o

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

An exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the opposite interior angles.

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

so

∠DEF=∠ECD+∠CDE

substitute the given values

(4x+5)^o=(x+9)^o+(x+8)^o

solve for x

Combine like terms

(4x+5)^o=(2x+17)^o

Group terms

4x-2x=17-5

2x=12

x=6

Find the measure of angle CDE

m\angle CDE=(x+8)^o

substitute the value of x

m\angle CDE=(6+8)=14^o

I can't seem to figure out number 13, with the star. I just don't know! Help is very appreciated ☺️
katrin2010 [14]
Given:
Scale of the map 1 1/4cm : 8 yards
Rectangular Park:  width : 2 1/2 cm ; length : 6 1/4 cm
Circular Pond: pi = 3.14 ; diameter 1 1/4 cm

Convert mixed factions into fractions.
Scale 1 1/4 = (4*1+1)/4 = 5/4
Width: 2 1/2 = (2*2+1)/2 = 5/2
Length: 6 1/4 = (4*6+1)/4 = 25/4
Diameter: 1 1/4 = (4*1+1)/4 = 5/4

width / scale * 8 yds = width in yards
5/2 ÷ 5/4 = 5/2 * 4/5 = 20/10 = 2 * 8 yds = 16 yds
length / scale * 8 yds = length in yards
25/4 ÷ 5/4 = 25/4 * 4/5 = 100/20 = 5 * 8 yds = 40 yds

Area of a rectangular park = l * w = 40 yds * 16 yds = 640 yds² 
 
diameter / scale * 8 yds = diameter in yards
5/4 ÷ 5/4 = 5/4 * 4/5 = 20/20 = 1 * 8 yds = 8 yds.

radius = d/2 = 8/2 = 4
Area of a circular pond = πr² = 3.14 * 4² = 3.14 * 16yds² = 50.24 yds²

Find all the zeros for each function P(x)=x^4-4x^3-x^2+20x-20
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

The zeros of the given polynomial function are

2,2,\pm\sqrt{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given polynomial is P(x)=x^4-4x^3-x^2+20x-20

To find the zeros equate the given polynomial to zero

ie., P(x)=0

P(x)=x^4-4x^3-x^2+20x-20=0

By using synthetic division we can solve the polynomial:

2_|   1     -4     -1      20      -20

       0      2     -4     -10       20

   _____________________

       1     -2      -5      10      |_0

Therefore x-2=0

x=2 is a zero of P(x)

Now we can write the cubic equation as below:

x^3-2x^2-5x+10=0

Again using synthetic division

2_|   1     -2     -5     10      

       0      2      0    -10    

    ______________

       1      0      -5     |_0

Therefore x-2=0

x=2 is also a zero of P(x).

Now we have x^2+0x-5=0

x^2-5=0

x^2=5

x^=\pm\sqrt{5} is a zero of P(x)

Therefore the zeros are 2,2,\pm\sqrt{5}
