If Paul and Steve are the same height and they are both correct, write an equation to represent this relationship. Put Paul's expression on the left side of the equal sign and Steve's expression on the right.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Theresa's height=60 inches

Paul's height= Steve's height=74 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Theresa has two brothers,Paul and Steve, who are both the same height. Paul says he is 16 inches shorter than 1 1/2 times Theresa's height. Steve says he's 6 inches shorter than 1 1/3 times Theresa's height. If they're both right, how tall is Theresa ?

Let

p=paul's height

s=steve's height

t=theresa's height

Paul's height = Steve's height

p=s

Paul says he is 16 inches shorter than 1 1/2 times Theresa's height

1 1/2 * t -16

=3/2t -16

Steve says he is 6 inches shorter than 1 1/3 times Theresa's height

1 1/3 * t - 6

=4/3t - 6

P=S

3/2t -16 = 4/3t - 6

Collect like terms

3/2t-4/3t= -6+16

9t-8t/6 =10

t/6=10

Cross product

t=60

Theresa's height=60 inches

P=3/2t -16

=3/2(60) -16

=180/2 -16

=90-16

=74 inches

p=s

Paul's height=74 inches

Determine the number of solutions for each quadratic.

1.) 4x^2-3x+4=0

2.)9x^2-12x+4=0


PLEASE HELP!!!

Answers

Answer:

1. no solution 2. has one solution

Step-by-step explanation:

first you must find the discriminant of each quadratic also remember

if the discriminant is positive  b^{2}-4ac> 0, then the quadratic equation has two solutions.

if the discriminant is equal  b^{2}-4ac= 0, then the quadratic equation has one solution.

if the discriminant is negative  b^{2}-4ac< 0, then the quadratic equation has no solution.

1. the discriminant is [tex]\sqrt{b^2-4ac}[/tex] and when you plug in the numbers you get -55 which is less than 0

2. the discriminant is 0 so there is one solution

Answer:

1. has no real roots, no solutions (unless you can have imaginary solutions)

2. touches the x axis in one point, so one solution

Rita got three colors of beads, half of them are pink. She used all her pink beads to make some bracelets. If the number of pink beads she used for each bracelet is one eighths of the total number of beads, how many bracelets did she make?

Answers

Answer: she made 4 bracelets.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x, y, z are the number of three kinds of beads, where x= number of pink beads.

As per given, number of pink beads= half of total beads  

[tex]\Rightarrow\ x=\dfrac{1}{2}(x+y+z)\\\\\Rightarrow 2x= x+y+z\\\\\Rightarrow\ x= y+z\ \ \ ...(i)[/tex]

Also, She used all pink beads,  Number of pink beads she used for each bracelet= one eighths of the total number of beads

[tex]\dfrac{1}{8}(x+y+z)\\\\=\dfrac{1}{8}(x+x)\ \ \ [ {\text{From (i)}}][/tex]

[tex]=\dfrac{1}{8}(2x)\\\\=\dfrac{x}{4}[/tex]bracelets =

Number of bracelets = (Number of pink beads) ÷ (Number of pink beads used for each bracelet)

[tex]=\dfrac{x}{\dfrac{x}{4}}=4[/tex]

Hence, she made 4 bracelets.

Evaluate -3.28 - (-4.4) + (-p) where p = 9.7

Answers

Answer:

-8.58

Step-by-step explanation:

p = 9.7

=> -3.28 - (-4.4) + (-p)

=> -3.28 - (-4.4) + (- (9.7))

=> -3.28 - (-4.4) + (-9.7)

=> -3.28 - (-4.4) -9.7

=> -3.28 +4.4 -9.7

=> -12.98 +4.4

=> -8.58

Answer:

The evaluated answer for this equation is -8.58

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a value of p so we will use this value for the equation.

-3.28 - (-4.4) + (-p)

Replace p with 9.7

-3.28 - (-4.4) + (-9.7)

Since there is a double negative in front of 4.4, then that means that we are going to be adding -3.28 to 4.4

1.12 + (-9.7)

Subtract 1.42 from 9.7 because there is negative sign in front of 9.7

-8.58

x = 25°

Step-by-step explanation:

The 2 angles are vertical angles and are congruent , then

2x + 100 = 150 ( subtract 100 from both sides )

2x = 50 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 25°

Answer: x = 25°

Step-by-step explanation:

⇒2x + 100 = 150

⇒2x = 150-100

⇒x = 50/2

⇒x = 25

According to the angle addition postulate, the measure of an angle formed by two angles side by side is the sum of the measures of the two angles. It is used to evaluate the measure of an angle formed by two or more angles .

In the given picture, we have ∠MRO and ∠MRS on line SRO.

So, ∠SRO = ∠MRO +∠MRS  [By angle addition postulate]

Bob and Carol want to hire Able Refinishing to sand and refinish the dining room floor to match the floor in the living room. Able charges $2.41 per square foot to sand and refinish a hardwood floor. The dining room is rectangular and measures 17 feet 10 inches by 11 feet 9 inches. Find the area of the dining room floor and the cost of the work.

Answers

Answer:

Area = 209.5 ft² (nearest tenth)

Cost = $505 (approximated)

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: convert the inches to be in feet by dividing length in inches by 12.

17 feet 10 inches => [tex] 17 + \frac{10}{12} = 17.83 ft [/tex]

11 feet 9 inches => [tex]11 + \frac{9}{12} = 11.75 ft[/tex]

Step 2: Find the area of the floor of the dinning room

Area = 17.83*11.75 = 209.5 ft² (nearest tenth)

Step 3: Find the cost of the work.

Cost = 209.5 ft² × $2.41 = $505 (approximated)

Given the linear correlation coefficient r and the sample size n​, determine the critical values of r and use your finding to state whether or not the given r represents a significant linear correlation. Use a significance level of 0.05. r=0.767, n=25

Answers

Answer:

the critical value for r at [tex]r_{0.05, 23}[/tex] = 0.396

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

the linear correlation coefficient r = 0.767

the sample size n = 25

the level of significance ∝ = 0.05

The degree of freedom is expressed with the formula df = n - 2

 df = 25 - 2

 df = 23

the critical value for r at [tex]r_{0.05, 23}[/tex] = 0.396

The linear correlation coefficient r = 0.767 is not in the region between the critical values of -0.396 and +0.396. We can therefore conclude that the linear correlation coefficient is significant.

24 is 75% percent of what number?

Answers

Answer:

32

Step-by-step explanation:

We can call the number x. 75% can be expressed as 0.75 so we can write the following equation: 0.75x = 24. Dividing both sides by 0.75 to get rid of the coefficient of x, we get that x = 32.

Answer:

32.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say the number we are trying to find is x.

24 = 0.75x

0.75x = 24

x = 24 / 0.75

x = 32

find the real solution of the equation.​

Answers

Answer:

[tex]x = -5 \text{ or } x =3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find the real solutions to the equation:

[tex]\displaystyle 8^{x^2 + 2x - 15} = 1[/tex]

Recall that any value raised to zero (except for zero itself) is one.

In other words, the exponent must equal zero:

[tex]x^2 + 2x - 15 = 0[/tex]

Solve for x. Factor:

[tex](x+5)(x-3) = 0[/tex]

Zero Product Property:

Solve for each case. Hence:

[tex]x = -5 \text{ or } x =3[/tex]

In conclusion, our two real solutions are:
