A 13-foot board is cut into two pieces. The length of the shorter piece is 1 ft more than half the length of the longer piece. Find the length (in ft) of the shorter piece.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: 1

Step-by-step explanation: 1

Answer 2

Length of the shorter piece of board is equals to 5foot.

What is length?

" Length is defined as the distance between two end points of any object."

According to the question,

Length of the board = 13foot

'l' represents the length of the longer piece

As per the condition given we have,

Length of the shorter piece = [tex]\frac{l}{2} +1[/tex]

Therefore,

[tex]l + \frac{l}{2}+1=13[/tex]

⇒ [tex]\frac{3l}{2} =13-1[/tex]

⇒[tex]l= \frac{2}{3} (12)[/tex]

⇒ [tex]l= 8foot[/tex]

Length of the shorter piece = [tex]\frac{8}{2} +1[/tex]

                                              = [tex]5foot[/tex]

Hence, length of the shorter piece of board is equals to 5foot.

Answers

Answer:9

Step-by-step explanation:

The fractions have unlike denominators. First, find the Least Common Denominator and rewrite the fractions with the common denominator. Multiply both the numerator and denominator of each fraction by the number that makes its denominator equal the LCD. This is basically multiplying each fraction by 1. (14/2 x 3/3)+(12/6 x 1/1). Complete the multiplication and the equation becomes  42/6+12/6. The two fractions now have like denominators so you can add the numerators. 42+12/6=54/6. Divide 54 by 6 and get 9. hope this helps :)

Consider the equation y=-x^2-7x+12

Answers

Answer:

y = (x + 4)(x + 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

y = x ^2 + 7x + 12

The two numbers must add up to 7 and has a product of 12, and since the equation is all positive, then the two numbers are positive too.

So y = (x + 4)(x + 3) is the answer.

Check:

y = (x + 4)(x + 3)

y = x(x + 3) + 4(x + 3)     distributive property

y = x^2 + 3x + 4x + 12

y = x^2 + 7x + 12

You are driving to visit a friend in another state who lives 440 miles away. You are driving 55 miles per hour and have already driven 275 miles. Write and solve an equation to find how much longer in hours you must drive to reach your destination. A. 55h + 275 = 440 ; h=3 B.55h - 275 = 440 ; h= 13 C.440h -275 = 55 ; h =0.75 D. 55h +275h = 440 ; h=1.3

Answers

Answer:

A. 55h + 275 = 440; h=3

Step-by-step explanation:

Since all answer choices have a different H= , finding how many hours you have left to drive will give you the right answer.

You've already driven 275 miles in your 440 mile trio so you can subtract the 275 to find out how much you will still need to drive.

440 - 275 = 165

You already know that you are driving at 55 mph so divide 165 by 55 and the answer is three.

Option A was the only answer choice which listed h=3 so that is the correct answer.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a)7x + 2 = -19  {subtract 2 from both sides}

7x + 2 -  2 = -19 - 2

            7x = -21   {Divide both sides by 7}

         7x/7 = -21/7

             x = -3

b) 3x - 1/3 = 5

3x - 1/3 +1/3 = 5 + 1/3  {Add 1/3 to both sides}

               3x =15/3 + 1/3

               3x =16/3

             3x/3 = 16/3*3 {Divide both sides by 3}

                 x =16/9

                 x =1 7/9

c) 5x - 4  = 21

5x -4 + 4 = 21 +4 {Add 4 to both sides}

          5x = 25

       5x/5 = 25/5    {Divide both sides by 5}

            x = 5

d) -7x  = 21 {Divide both sides by -7}

-7x/-7 = 21/-7

        x = -3

e)   18 - 7x = -3

18 - 7x - 18 = -3 - 18   {Subtract 18 from both sides}

          -7x = -21   {Divide both sides by -7}

      -7x/-7 = -21/-7

              x = 3

f)     3(x+4) = 21   {use distributive property}

   3x + 3*4 = 21

    3x  + 12 = 21

3x + 12 - 12 = 21 - 12       {Subtract 12 from both sides}

              3x = 9   {Divide both sides by 3}

           3x/3 = 9/3

                 x = 3

g)     3x - 9 = 5x - 3  {add 9 to both sides}

 3x - 9 + 9 = 5x - 3 + 9

             3x = 5x + 6

       3x - 5x = 5x + 6 - 5x     { subtract 5x form both sides}

             -2x = 6  {Divide both sides by -2}

         -2x/-2 = 6/-2

                 x = -3

h) 4x + 6 - 7x + 9 = 18   {Add the like terms}

           -3x  + 15 = 18  {Subtract 15 from both sides}

      -3x + 15 -15 = 18 - 15

                    -3x = 3   {Divide both sides by -3}

               -3x/-3 = 3/-3

                      x = -1

[tex]i) \frac{-4}{9}x = -36[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 9

[tex]9*\frac{-4}{9}x =9*-36[/tex]

 -4x = -324     {Divide both sides by -4}

-4x/-4 = -324/-4

       x = -81

[tex]j)\frac{-7}{8}x - 6 = 8[/tex]   {Add 6 to both sides}

[tex]\frac{-7}{8}x-6+6=8+6\\\\\frac{-7}{8}x=14\\[/tex]    {Multiply both sides by 8}

[tex]\frac{-7}{8}x*8=14*8\\\\-7x=14*8\\[/tex]       {Divide both sides by -7}

[tex]\frac{-7}{-7}x=\frac{14*8}{-7}[/tex]

Kelly invested her savings of $4800. she invested part in mutual funds, at 9% per year, and the rest in GIC's, at 10% per year. at the end of the year, the interest from both investments is $457. how much did she invest at each rate?

Answers

Answer:

For the 9% she invested $2,300

For the 10% she invested $2,500

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the amount invested be $x and $y in both cases respectively

Since the total invested is $4,800

This means that;

x + y = 4800 ••••••••••••(i)

Now let’s have a look at the interests.

For the 9%

Interest would be 9/100 * amount invested

= 9/100 * x = 9x/100

For the 10%, interest would be

10/100 * y = 10y/100

Adding both will give a total of 457

9x/100 + 10y/100 = 457

multiply through by 100

9x + 10y = 45700 •••••••• (ii)

From equation i, we can write x = 4800 - y

we can substitute this into the second equation

9(4800-y) + 10y = 45700

43200 -9y + 10y = 45,700

43200 + y = 45,700

y = 45,700-43,200 = $2,500

Recall

x = 4800 -y

so x = 4800 -2500 = 2300

Fred is planning a fundraiser where he will collect $4.50 for every mile he runs. He will be running on a typical track, that has two straight lengths of 300 feet each, and two curved parts that are in the shape of semicircles with 200 foot diameters

He runs around the track exactly 15 times. To the nearest cent, how much money did he collect?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The diameter of each curved path is 200 feet. Since the two curved semi circular paths are equal, they would form a circle. It means that the distance around the two semi circular paths would be the circumference of the circle. Formula for determining the circumference of the circle is π × diameter. It becomes

200 × 3.14 = 628 feet

Total distance around the track would be

300 + 300 + 628 = 1228 feet

5280 feet = 1 mile

1228 feet = 1228/5280 = 0.23 mile

If he runs around the track exactly 15 times, it means that the number of miles covered is

0.23 × 15 = 3.45 miles

Since he will collect $4.50 for every mile he runs, the amount of money that he collected is

4.5 × 3.45 = $15.5
