Answer 2

Age problems are the algebra word problem which deals with the ages of people in the present time.

Given information-

Abigail is 5 years older than Brenda.

Brenda is twice as old as Carly.

The total of their ages is less than 40.

Age problems

Age problems are the algebra word problem which deals with the ages of people in the present time.

Suppose Abigail is A, Brenda is B and Carly is C years old.

As Abigail is 5 years older than Brenda. Thus,

[tex] A=B+5[/tex]                .... 1

As Brenda is twice as old as Carly. Thus,

[tex]C=\dfrac{B}{2} [/tex]                    ..... 2

As the total of their ages is less than 40.

[tex]A+B+C=40[/tex]

Keep the values of A and C from the equation 1 and 2 in the above equation,

[tex]\begin{aligned}\\ B+5+B+\dfrac{B}{2} &=40\\ 2B+\dfrac{B}{2} &=35\\ \dfrac{4B+B}{2}&=35\\ B&=\dfrac{35}{5} \times2\\ B&=14\\ \end[/tex]

Thus the Brenda is 14 year old. As the Abigail is 5 years older than Brenda. Thus the age of the Abigail is,

[tex]A=14+5\\ A=19[/tex]

Thus the Abigail is 19 year old.

The coffee merchant plans to mix some fancy $6.50 per pound ground coffee called royal soil with 10 pounds of a lowly $2 per pound ground called royal peasant. How many pounds of the $6.50 per pound ground coffee should he use?

Answers

Answer and explanation:

Given:

Royal soil= $6.50 per pound

Royal peasant = $2 per pound of 10 pounds

Blend total pounds is x+10, price is unknown hence solved below

Using algebra

We find unknown x = number of pounds of royal soil

$6.50(x)+$2(10)=6.50x+20/x+10(x+10)

= 6.50x+20= 6.50x²+85x+200

A rectangular poster is to contain 578 square inches of print. The margins at the top and bottom of the poster are to be 2 inches, and the margins on the left and right are to be 1 inch. What should the dimensions of the poster be so that the least amount of poster is used?

Answers

Answer:

19 by 38

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the poster, A=xy

Margin at both up and bottom is 2inches, at the right and left is 1 inch

Then we can say

(x-4)(y-2)= 578

Let us make y subject of the formula

(y-2)= 578/(x-4)

y=[ 578/(x-4)] + 2

If we substitute into the area A equation we have

A= x { [ 578/(x-4)] + 2}

A= 2x + (578x)/(x - 4)

If we differentiate we have

A'(x)= [2+578(x-4)+578x ]/ (x-4)^2

=[ 2(x-4)^2 + 578(x -4) + 578x ] / (x-4)^2

=[ 2(x^2 - 8x +16) + 578(x-4) + 578x ] /(x-4)^2

If we simplify this we have

=[ 2x^2 -16x +32+578x -578x - 2312]/ (x-4)^2

=( 2x^2 -16x - 2312) / (x-4)^2

At A'(x)= 0

= ( x^2 - 8x - 2312) / (x-4)^ =0

If we divide through by 2 we have

x^2 - 8x - 1156= 0

Solving the quadratic eqn( CHECK THE ATTACHMENT)

X= 38 or -30 then we choose the positive one, then x= 38

Then from area of the poster

A= (x-4)(y-2)= 578

Substitute 38 as value of x

(38-4)(y-2)= 578

34(y-2)=578

34y-68=578

34y=646

y=19

Hence dimensions of the poster is 19 by 38

Solution:

Let temperature in Country Y be

and temperature in Country X be

"Temperature in Country Y is is at least 7 degrees colder than in Country X."

At least tells us that the inequality sign is
>=
and that the difference in temperature is at least 7


x-y>=7


x>=7+y


x-7>=y


y =7
in your own words.

2. What are the basic steps to be followed in graphing a two-variable linear inequality?

3. In the solution graph, why is the line
y =7
?
How can you find if a point is a solution to inequality?

Answers

Answer:

1)x-y>7

x>7+y

x-7=y

y =7

If it has to be at least 7 then 7 is less than all of them or equal to it.

2) Step 1: Always start by isolating the variable y on the left side of the inequality.

Step 2: Change the inequality to equality symbol. ...

Step 3: Graph the boundary line from step 2 in the X Y − XY- XY−plane. ...

Step 4: The last step is to shade one side or region of the boundary line.

3) The solution graph is y=7 because there is no possible x or x=0

you can find  a point in an inequality in the shaded region of the graph. Any of the points in the shaded region work as a solution of the inequality

Greatest common factor of 25,50,75

Answers

Answer:

gcd (50; 75) = 25 = 5^2:

Step-by-step explanation:

hope it help

The greatest common factor of 25, 50 and 75 is 5*5, which is equal to 25.

We are given that;

The three numbers = 25, 50, 75

Now,

The greatest common factor (GCF) of two or more numbers is the largest positive integer that divides evenly into all the numbers with zero remainder.

To find the GCF of 25, 50 and 75, we can use the prime factorization method. This involves writing each number as a product of its prime factors and then finding the common factors among them.

The prime factorization of 25 is 5*5

The prime factorization of 50 is 2 x 5*5.

The prime factorization of 75 is 3 x 5*5.

The common factors of 25, 50 and 75 are 1 and 5*5.

Therefore, by factorization the answer will be 25.

Determine whether each equation is True or False. In case you find a "False" equation, explain why is False.​

Answers

Answer:

(1) TRUE.

(2) FALSE.

(3) FALSE.

(4) TRUE.

(5) FALSE.

Step-by-step explanation:

(1) [tex]\sqrt{32} = 2^{\frac{5}{2} }[/tex]

[tex]2^{\frac{5}{2} } = (\sqrt{2} )^5 = (\sqrt{2} \ \times \ \sqrt{2} \ \times \ \sqrt{2} \ \times \ \sqrt{2} \ \times \ \sqrt{2}) = 4\sqrt{2}\\\\\sqrt{32} = \sqrt{16 \ \times \ 2}\ = \ \sqrt{16} \ \times \ \sqrt{2} \ = \ 4\sqrt{2}[/tex]

Thus, the equation is TRUE.

(2) [tex]16^{\frac{3}{8} } = 8^2[/tex]

[tex]16^{\frac{3}{8} } =(2^4)^{\frac{3}{8} } = 2^\frac{3}{2} }= (\sqrt{2} )^3 = (\sqrt{2} \ \times \ \sqrt{2} \ \times \ \sqrt{2}) = 2\sqrt{2} \\\\8^2 = 64[/tex]

Thus, the equation is FALSE.

(3) [tex]4^{\frac{1}{2} } = \sqrt[4]{64}[/tex]

[tex]4^{\frac{1}{2} }= \sqrt{4} = 2\\\\\sqrt[4]{64} = (64)^{\frac{1}{4} } = (2^6)^{\frac{1}{4} }= 2^{\frac{6}{4} } = 2^{\frac{3}{2} }=(\sqrt{2} )^3 = (\sqrt{2} \times \sqrt{2} \times \sqrt{2} ) = 2\sqrt{2}[/tex]

Thus, the equation is FALSE.

(4) [tex]2^8 = (\sqrt[3]{16} )^6[/tex]

[tex]2^8 = 256\\\\ (\sqrt[3]{16} )^6 = (16)^{\frac{6}{3} } = (2^4)^{\frac{6}{3} } = (2)^{\frac{24}{3} } = 2^8 = 256[/tex]

Thus, the equation is TRUE.

(5) [tex](\sqrt{64} )^{\frac{1}{3} } = 8^{\frac{1}{6} }\\\\[/tex]

[tex]8^{\frac{1}{6} } = (2^3)^{\frac{1}{6} } = 2^{\frac{3}{6} } = 2^{\frac{1}{2} } = \sqrt{2} \\\\(\sqrt{64} )^{\frac{1}{3} } = (2^6)^{\frac{1}{3} } = 2^{\frac{6}{3} } = 2^2 = 4[/tex]

Thus, the equation is FALSE.

Answer:

4 is a square number

21 = 21 - 5 = 16

16 is a square number

29 is not a square number
