Finding two numbers

Mathematics
1 answer:
kramer2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

the larger number is 39 and the smaller is 35

Step-by-step explanation:

let the larger number be x and the smaller number be y

the larger number is 4 more than the smaller : x = y+ 4

the sum of the numbers is 74 : x+y = 74

knowing that x= y+4; (y+4)+y = 74

y+4+y=74

collect like terms : y+y=74-4

2y=70

y=70/2 ; y=35

substitute y=35 into (x=y+4)

X=35+4, x=39

A maple syrup producer would like to increase production by 500 gallons per each consecutive year with a goal of producing at le
ipn [44]

Answer:

b) x ≥ 3000 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a)

Production of Year 1 = x gallons

By each year the producer will increase the production by 500 gallons. So,

Production in Year 2 = x + 500 gallons

Similarly,

Production in Year 3 = x + 500 + 500 = x + 1000 gallons

Production in Year 4 = x + 1000 + 500 = x + 1500 gallons

Production in Year 5 = x + 1500 + 500 = x + 2000 gallons

Part b)

The maple syrup producer wants to produced atleast 20,000 gallons in 5 years.

Total amount produced in 5 years = x + x + 500 + x + 1000 + x + 1500 + x + 2000

Total amount produced in 5 years = 5x + 5000

Since, producer wants total production to be atleast 20,000, we can set up the inequality as:

5x + 5000 ≥ 20000

Subtracting 5000 from both sides, we get:

5x ≥ 15000

Dividing both sides by 5, we get:

x ≥ 3000

This means, in the first year the production of maple syrup must be atleast 3,000 gallons i.e 3000 gallons or more to have a total of atleast 20,000 gallons in 5 years.

The radius of a circular baking tray is 6 cm. Find its area correct to 2 decimal places. Use the π button on your calculator for
ELEN [110]

Answer:

A \approx 113.10cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The circle is a flat surface or area limited or closed by a circumference. It is a two-dimensional figure and is formed by making a curve where it will always have the same distance to the center. Its area can be calculated using the following formula:

A=\pi r^2\\\\Where:\\\\r=radius

Therefore the area of the circular baking tray is:

A=\pi (6)^2=\pi*36=36 \pi=113.0973355\approx 113.10 cm^2
