Jacob’s age is two years more than the sum of the ages of his siblings Becky and Micah. Which equation represents Jacob’s age? A. z = x + y − 2; x represents Micah's age, y represents Becky's age, and z represents Jacob's age B. x = y + z + 2; x represents Jacob's age, y represents Micah's age, and z represents Becky's age C. x = 2 + y + z; x represents Becky's age, y represents Jacob's age, and z represents Micah's age D. y = x + z − 2; x represents Jacob's age, y represents Becky's age, and z represents Micah's age

Answers

Answer 1

The equation that represents Jacob's age is  x = y + z + 2

From the question, the following information was provided :

Jacob's age is two years more than the sum of the ages of his siblings Becky and Micah.

This above information can be represented with the equation below

Jacob = 2 + ( Becky + Micah) (equation 1)

If :

x represents Jacob's age

y represents Micah's age

z represents Becky's age

Equation 1, can be rewritten as x = y + z + 2

Micah's age can be determined by making Micah the subject of the formula in the above equation

Micah = Jacob - Becky - 2   (equation 2)

If :

x represents Micah's age

y represents Becky's age

z represents Jacob's age

Micah's age can be rewritten as :

x = z - y - 2

Becky's age  age can be determined by making Becky the subject of the formula in the first equation.

Becky = Jacob - Micah - 2 (equation 3)

If:

x represents Becky's age

y represents Jacob's age

z represents Micah's age

Equation 3 can be rewritten as :

x = y - z - 2

Answer 2

Using a system of equations, it is found that the correct equation is given by:

[tex]x = y + z + 2[/tex], which is option B.

---------------

Jacob's age is given by x.Becky's age is given by y.Micah's age is given by z.Considering that Jacob's is 2 years older than Becky's and Micah's combined, which is of y + z, his age is represented by the following equation:

[tex]x = y + z + 2[/tex]

Which is given by option B.

CAN SOMEONE HELP ME ASAP? The density of a certain material is such that it weighs 7 ounces for every 2.5 gallons of volume. Express this density in tons per cubic meter. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

Answers

Answer: Density = 0.23 tons per cubic meter.

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula : [tex]Density=\dfrac{Mass(in \ ton)}{Volume (in\ m^3)}[/tex]

1 ton = 32000 ounces

⇒ 1 ounce = 0.00003125 ton

⇒  7 ounces = 7(0.00003125)=  0.00021875 ton

1 gallon = 0.00378541 cubic meter

2.5 gallons = 0.009475 cubic meter

Density= [tex]\dfrac{0.00021875}{0.009475}\text{ tons per cubic meter}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{21875}{94750}\text{ tons per cubic meter}\approx0.23\text{ tons per cubic meter}[/tex]

Hence, Density = 0.23 tons per cubic meter.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If S is the midpoint of RT, RS = 5x + 17, and ST = 8x - 31, find RS. Show work!

Answers

Answer:

97

Step-by-step explanation:

Since S is the midpoint of RT, and when you split the line into two you'd get two distances that are equidistant. Therefore, you can make the two distances into an equation. When combined together, the result will be the total length of the line.

5x + 17 = 8x - 31

Now simply just solve for "x"

5x + 17 = 8x - 31

5x + 48 = 8x

48 = 3x

48/3 = 3x/3

16 = x

Once you get x, plug it into the equation "RS = 5x + 17"

5(16) + 17

80 + 17

97, which is our final answer.

The hypotenuse of a right angled triangle is 8 cm more than its shortest side. The third side is 1 cm shorter than the hypotenuse. Find the three sides of ths is triangle.​

Answers

Answer:

hypotenuse = 13

shortest side = 5

third side = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Given sides a, b, and c, with c representing the hypotenuse of a right triangle, we can say that

a²+b² = c² using the Pythagorean Theorem.

We are given that the hypotenuse (c) = 8 cm more than the shortest side. Representing the shortest side as a, we can say that c= 8 + a. Then, the third side, which we can represent as b, is 1cm shorter than the hypotenuse, so c-1 = b

c= 8+a

c-1 = b

a²+b² = c²

One thing we can do is to solve for everything in terms of c and solve the third equation from there

c= 8+a

subtract 8 from both sides

c-8 = a

a²+b² = c²

(c-8)²+b² =c²

b = c-1

(c-8)² + (c-1)² = c²

expand

c²-16c + 64 + c² - 2c + 1 = c²

2c² - 18c + 65 = c²

subtract c² from both sides to make this an equation that we can more easily solve

c² - 18c + 65 = 0

To factor, we can find two numbers that add to (-18) and multiply to 65. Two numbers that work at 13 and 5, so we have

c²-13c-5c + 65 = 0

c(c-13) -5(c-13) = 0

(c-5)(c-13) = 0

Therefore, the hypotenuse, or c, is 5 or 13. Because a=c-8, if c=5, a would be negative 3. This is not possible, so c cannot be 5. Therefore, c=13, a=c-8=5, and b=c-1= 12

If 2/3 inch on a map corresponds to an actual distance of 9 miles, what distance on the map will represent 21 miles?

Answers

Answer:

14/9 inches, or an inch and 5/9 of an inch.

Step-by-step explanation:

If 2/3 inch is the same as 9 miles, then x inches represents 21 miles. We can then set up a proportion.

[tex]\frac{\frac{2}{3} }{9} =\frac{x}{21}[/tex]

9 * x = (2/3) * 21

9x = 2 * 7

9x = 14

x = 14/9 inches.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

1 5/9 ich represent 21 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Proportions:

2/3  inch  ⇔   9 miles

M  inch   ⇔    21 miles

M = 21*(2/3) / 9

M = 14/9

14/9 = 9/9 + 5/9 = 1 + 5/9 = 1 5/9 inch

Step-by-step explanation:

6/14 = 7/(x-3)

Using cross products

6 * (x-3) = 7*14

6x -18 = 98

Add 18 to each side

6x-18+18 =98+18

6x = 116

Divide each side by 6

6x/6 = 116/6

x =58/3

x = 19  1/3

Answer= 58/3

Step by Step

Step 1: Cross-multiply.

6*(x−3)=(7)*(14)

6x−18=98

Step 2: Add 18 to both sides.

6x−18+18=98+18

6x=116

Step 3: Divide both sides by 6.

6x /6 = 116 /6

Fill in the ?s to satisfy the arithmetic progression rule

Answers

Answer:

  see below

Step-by-step explanation:

The "arithmetic progression rule" requires the numbers on either side of an edge make an arithmetic progression with the numbers at either end.

If we label the variables 'a', 'b', 'c' clockwise from top, then the rule means we have ...

  2a -b +2c = 1

  2a +2b -c = 7

  -a +2b +2c = -2

Solution

Adding twice the second equation to each of the other two gives ...

  2(2a +2b -c) +(2a -b +2c) = 2(7) +(1)

  6a +3b = 15 . . . . [eq4]

and

  2(2a +2b -c) +(-a +2b +2c) = 2(7) +(-2)

  3a +6b = 12 . . . . [eq5]

Subtracting [eq5] from twice [eq4] we have ...

  2(6a +3b) -(3a +6b) = 2(15) -(12)

  9a = 18

  a = 2

From [eq4], we can find b:

  b = (15 -6a)/3 = 5 -2a = 5 -2(2) = 1

From [eq2] we can find c:

  c = 2(a+b) -7 = 2(2+1) -7 = -1

These values are shown on the diagram below.

Show your work to find the rate of change and initial value. (6 points) Part B: Write an equation in slope-intercept form to model the relationship between x and y. (4 points)

Answers

Answer:

Rate of Change/Slope = -20

Equation: y= -20x +100

Step-by-step explanation:

A. We know the rate of change is also known as the slope.  If we used the slope formula to find the slope we can find the Rate of Change.

[tex]\frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1} = \frac{100-80}{1-2} = \frac{20}{-1} = -20[/tex]

B. Since we know the slope and 1 point on the graph we can substitute them in for 'b'

(0,100)

(100)=-20(0) + b

b = 100

Since we know the slope and the b value we can write the equation:\

y = -20x +100

The rate of change refers to the slope of the line, that is the change in y-axis per unit change in the value on the x-axis. Hence, the rate of change is :

Slope = - 20y = -20x + 100

Slope = Rise / Run

Rise = (y2 - y1) = (0 - 100) = - 100

Run = (x2 - x1) = (5 - 0) = 5

Slope = - 100 / 5 = - 20

General form of a slope - intercept relation :

y = bx + c

The intercept, c can be calculated thus:

100 = - 20(0) + c

100 = 0 + c

c = 100

Hence, the slope - intercept equation will be y = - 20x + 100
