Answer:
The values of x and y are x = 6 and y = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
MNOP is a parallelogram its diagonal MO and PN intersected at point A
In any parallelogram diagonals:
- Bisect each other
- Meet each other at their mid-point
In parallelogram MNOP
∵ MO and NP are its diagonal
∵ MO intersect NP at point A
- Point A is the mid-point pf them
∴ MO and NP bisect each other
∴ MA = AO
∴ PA = AN
∵ MA = x + 5
∵ AO = y + 2
- Equate them
∴ x + 5 = y + 2 ⇒ (1)
∵ PA = 3x
∵ AN = 2y
- Equate them
∴ 2y = 3x
- Divide both sides by 2
∴ y = 1.5x ⇒ (2)
Now we have a system of equations to solve it
Substitute y in equation (1) by equation (2)
∴ x + 5 = 1.5x + 2
- Subtract 1.5x from both sides
∴ - 0.5x + 5 = 2
- Subtract 5 from both sides
∴ - 0.5x = -3
- Divide both sides by - 0.5
∴ x = 6
- Substitute the value of x in equation (2) to find y
∵ y = 1.5(6)
∴ y = 9
The values of x and y are x = 6 and y = 9
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
this is more of a mind game. Lots of words to throw you off. Daily a cow produces a mean of 6.2 gallons (average of 6.2 gallons, meaning they already found the mean, "averaged" it out for you) with a deviation of .7 gallons ("give or take" .7 gallons). On any given day (throw these words out) 68% of the cows (don't need this information to answer the question either, thrown in to confuse you) will produce an amount of milk within which of the following ranges? Just subtract the deviation ("give or take number") .7 gallons from the mean (average (already determined)) 6.2 gallons which is 5.5 gallons THEN add the deviation ("give or take number") .7 gallons to the mean (average (already determined)) 6.2 gallons which is 6.9 gallons. Your answer is A 5.5 gallons to 6.9 gallons. You don't even have to go crazy on the math on this question you can rule them all out but A immediately with subtracting .7 from 6.2. Mind games .... LOL sneaky.
Answer:
1.) He still owes $100 of debt
2.) 1 rose would be .75 cents and 1 carnation would be .90 cents
3.) C 8 and 3/8
Step by Step explanation
(/ means divided by in the first 2 equations but / in the last question is for the fractions.)
1.) _(1,500 / 3 =500. 1,500 - 500 =1,000 / 5 =200 x 3 =600. 700 - 600 =$100)
2.)_(1.50/2 =.75 cents. 2.70/3 =.90 cents.)
3.) i first added the fractions ( i equalized them) then i added the whole numbers (the u in the equation was to separate the whole num. and fraction )
Before i equalized it: (6u3/4 + 1u1/8 = 7u1/8 + 1/8 = 8u3/8)
After i equalized it: (6u6/8 + 1u1/8 = 7u1/8 + 1/8 = 8u3/8)
Answer:
The expression that represents the population of elk is:
. It'll take 6 years for the population to reach 1,458 individuals.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the number of elks triples every year and starts at
, then after the first year the population will be:

While on the second year, it'll be:

On the third year:

And so on, therefore the expression that describes the population of elk as the years passes is:

If we want to know the number of years until the population reach 1,458 elk, we need to apply this value to the left side of the equation and solve for t.

The population will reach 1,458 elk in 6 years.
