The product of two positive numbers is 9. The reciprocal of one of these numbers is 4 times the reciprocal of the other number. What is the sum of the two numbers?
Answer:
7 and 1 / 2
Step-by-step explanation:
xy = 9
( 1 / x ) = 4 ( 1 / y )
y = 4x
x ( 4x ) = 9
4x^2 = 9
x = 3 / 2
( 3 / 2 ) y = 9
y = 6
6 + ( 3 / 2 ) = 7 and 1 / 2
The two numbers are 3/2 and 6.
What are reciprocal numbers?The reciprocal of a number is this fraction flipped upside down.
Given that, The product of two positive numbers is 9. The reciprocal of one of these numbers is 4 times the reciprocal of the other number.
Let the numbers be a and b.
ab = 9.......(i)
1/a = 4/b
a = 4b..........(ii)
Using (i) in (ii)
4b×b = 9
b² = 9/4
b = 3/2
a×3/2 = 9
a = 6
Hence, The two numbers are 3/2 and 6.

Find the values of x and y, and z
Answer:
z = 15
y = 8
x = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
All of the angles added together equal 180.
4z + 4z + 4z = 180
z = 15
3y - 1 = 23 ( all sides equal each other because all angles equal each other )
y = 8
2x + 9 = 23 ( similar to how I found y )
x = 7

Two sailboats started at the same location. Sailboat A traveled 5 miles west, then
turned 29° toward the north and continued for 8 miles. Sailboat B first went south
for 8 miles, then turned 51° toward the east and continued for 5 miles. Which
sailboat was farther from the starting point? Explain your reasoning.
The given question can be solved by applying the cosine rule. Therefore, Sailboat A is 12.61 miles away from the starting point. Thus it is the farthest from the starting point.
a. To determine the distance of sailboat A from the stating point.
Applying the cosine rule to the path traveled by sailboat A, we have:
[tex]c^{2}[/tex] = [tex]a^{2}[/tex] + [tex]b^{2}[/tex] - 2ab Cos θ
= [tex]5^{2}[/tex] + [tex]8^{2}[/tex] - 2(5*8) Cos (180 - 29)
= 25 + 64 -80 * -0.8746
[tex]c^{2}[/tex] = 89 + 70
[tex]c^{2}[/tex] = 159
c = [tex]\sqrt{159}[/tex]
= 12.6095
Thus, the distance of sailboat A from starting point is 12.61 miles.
b. To determine the distance of sailboat B from the stating point.
Applying the cosine rule to the path traveled by sailboat B, we have:
[tex]c^{2}[/tex] = [tex]a^{2}[/tex] + [tex]b^{2}[/tex] - 2ab Cos θ
= [tex]8^{2}[/tex] + [tex]5^{2}[/tex] - 2(5*8) Cos (180 - 51)
= 64 + 25 -80 * -0.6293
[tex]c^{2}[/tex] = 89 + 50.344
= 139.344
c = [tex]\sqrt{139.344}[/tex]
= 11.8044
c = 11.80 miles
Thus, the distance of sailboat B from starting point is 11.80 miles.
Comparing the distances of the sailboats from the starting point, sailboat A is farther from the starting point.

33-37 odd *equations only* Help pleaseeee I didn’t even know about this until 20 mins ago
[33] x = 140° & y = 118°
The lines are parallel, sso we can tell that y will equal 118° degrees because of corresponding angles. Then for x, we can add the non-adjacent angles together, 118° + 22° = 140°
[35] x = 26° & y = 64°
x will be 180° - 90° - 64° = 26° because a triangle's angles are equal to 180° and the box represents a 90° angle. y is equal to 64° because the lines are parallel, and if we "flip" one of the triangles around we can see that y and 64° are corresponding angles. (to check, we add 26° + 64° + 90°, and it does equal 180°!)

Write an equation in slope-intercept form of the line please help me
Answer:
The formula is generally represented equationally as ( y - Y1 ) = m( X - X1 ) so now let's substitute the points plotted on the graph.
it is equal to (y - 4) = m(x - 0)
and now we look for the slope
m = y2 - y1/ x2 - x1
which can be directly substituted according to every line connecting each x value to a certain y value.
The point-slope form of the equation of the line that passes through (1,-1) and has a slope of 4
Answer:y = 4x - 5
Step-by-step explanation:
point slope form is in the form of y = mx + b. m is the slope so we plug thatin and have the equation y = 4x + b. since we also have a point on the line we can plug those into the equation too. -1 = 4 * 1 + b.
now we simplify that through algebra.
-1 = 4 + b
b= -5
sp we get b and we can say the equation is y = 4x -5

It can be helpful to think of the exponent as specifying the number of times the base is a factor in the product. Of course, common factors in the numerator and denominator cancel.
a)[tex]\dfrac{b^7}{b^4}=\dfrac{b\cdot b\cdot b\cdot b\cdot b\cdot b\cdot b}{b\cdot b\cdot b\cdot b}=b\cdot b\cdot b=b^{7-4}=\boxed{b^3}[/tex]

b)[tex]\dfrac{x\cdot x^5}{x^2\cdot x}=\dfrac{x\cdot x\cdot x\cdot x\cdot x\cdot x}{x\cdot x\cdot x}=x\cdot x\cdot x=x^{6-3}=\boxed{x^3}[/tex]

The length of a rectangular room is 20 times longer than the width . If the perimeter is 588, what are the dimensions of the room
Answer:
im a teacher sorry not giving answer only hint
explanation:
To find the width, multiply the length that you have been given by 2, and subtract the result from the perimeter. You now have the total length for the remaining 2 sides. This number divided by 2 is the width.

A triangle has a height of 6mm and an area of 27mm2. What is the length of the base of the triangle?
Answer:
9 mmStep-by-step explanation:
A triangle has a height of 6mm and an area of 27mm2. What is the length of the base of the triangle?
----
To calculate the area of a triangle, multiply the height by the width (this is also known as the 'base') then divide by 2.
We use the inverse formula
base = 2A : height
2 * 27 : 6 = 9
------------------------
check
6 * 9 : 2 = 27
the answer is good
