The larger of two numbers is 2 more than 4 times the other. Their sum is 33. Find the two numbers. How do I answer this?

1 answer:

8 0

So, basically. The value of one of the numbers we will call x, and the value of the other number based off of x is 4x+2. So, add these two "numbers" up, and you get 5x+2. Youre equation is: 5x+2=33, 5x=31, x=6.2. So, one number is 6.2, and the other is 26.8

A 26' Long painting is how many yards Long

Alenkinab [10]

In one foot, there are 0.33 yards.
Therefore, you need to multiply 26 by 0.33
20x0.33= 6.6
6x0.33= 1.98 yards.
6.6+1.98= 8.58
Therefore, in a 26' long painting, there are 8.58 yards
Hope this helps :)

Polygon ABCD is reflected and dilated to give polygon PQRS. The coordinates of the preimage are (2, 2), (6, 8), (12, 8), and (16

HACTEHA [7]

Answer: The scale factor of the dilation is 0.5.

Explanation:

It is given that ABCD is polygon which is reflected and dilated , then we get PQRS.

The vertices of ABCD are (2, 2), (6, 8), (12, 8), and (16, 2) respectively. The vertices of image PQRS are (11, 15),(9, 12), (6, 12), and (4, 15) respectively.

The reflection affects the coordinates but does not affect the length of the sides.

But when we talk about dilation it affects the length of sides according to the scale factor or a constant factor.

If a line segment AB is dilated by scale factor k then length of A'B' is k times length of AB.

$|A'B'|=k\times |AB|$ .... (1)

So we have to find any side length of preimage and the side length of that side in image. it means we have to find AB and PQ.

Use distance formula to find the side length.

$D=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}$

$AB=\sqrt{(8-2)^2+(6-2)^2}=\sqrt{36+16}=2\sqrt{13}$

$PQ=\sqrt{(9-11)^2+(12-15)^2}=\sqrt{4+9}=\sqrt{13}$

It is noticed that the size of side in preimage is $2\sqrt{13}$ and the size of same side in image is $\sqrt{13}$ .

Using equation (1), we get

$\sqrt{13}=k \times 2\sqrt{13}$

$k=\frac{1}{2}$

$k=0.5$

Hence, the value of scale factor is 0.5.

Lilian has 42 feet of yarn. She wants to cut the yarn into 8 equal parts. How long will each part be?

GrogVix [38]

Answer:

A. Five and two eighths feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

42 (feet of yarn) ÷ 8 (equal parts) = 5.25 (feet of yarn that each part is)

5.25 =

$5 \frac{1}{4}$

$5 \frac{2}{8}$

because 1/4 = 2/8.

Hope this helps!

Pedro le dice a María si cambias los billetes de 10 € que tienes por billetes de 5 € y los billetes de 5 € por billetes de 10 €

Bad White [126]

Answer: Maria has 10 bills of 5€ and 10 bills of 10€.

She has a total of 150€.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be "f" the number of 5€ bills that Maria has and "t" the number of 10€ bills that Maria has.

Set up a system of equations:

$\left \{ {{f+t=20} \atop {5f+10t=10f+5t}} \right.$

Use the Substitution method to solve the system of equations:

1. Solve for "f" from the first equation:

$f=20-t$

2. Substitute the equation obtained into the second equation and solve for "t".

Then:

$5(20-t)+10t=10(20-t)+5t\\\\100-5t+10t=200-10t+5t\\\\20t-10t=100\\\\t=\frac{100}{10}\\\\t=10$

3. Substitute the value of "t" into the equation $f=20-t$ and evaluate:

$f=20-10\\\\f=10$

Therefore, Maria has 10 bills of 5€ and 10 bills of 10 €.

So the total amount of money she has, is:

$Total=10(5)+10(10)=150$

She has a total of 150€.

7/12+1/3 show your work and how you got your answer and you do all that and don’t scam me I will give branlist

Yanka [14]

Answer: 11/12

Step-by-step explanation:

7/12 and 1/3 don’t have the same denominator, so you can’t just add them right away. You have to give them the same bottom number. 1/3 = 4/12, so you can do it like this:

7/12 + 4/12 = 11/12

11/12 is in simplest form, so that should be correct! Hope this helps! :)
