Elliot is 2 times as old as Tanya. 10 years ago, Elliot was 4 times as old as Tanya​. How old is Elliot now?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, we are going to make an age table:

                       Age Now                 Age 10 years ago

Tanya

Elliot

Filling the in the Age Now column comes from the first sentence. If Elliot is 2 times Tanya's age and we don't know Tanya's age, then Tanya's age is x and Elliot's age is 2x:

            Age Now                Age 10 years ago

Tanya         x

Elliot         2x

Filling in the Age 10 years ago column simply requires that we take their ages in the Age Now column and subtract 10 from each age:

         Age Now                Age 10 years ago

Tanya     x                              x - 10

Elliot      2x                           2x - 10

Since the question is How old is Elliot now based on the fact that 10 years ago....blah, blah, blah, we are using the ages in the 10 years ago column to write our equation. It says:

10 years ago, Elliot was 4 times as old as Tanya. Translated into mathspeak:

2x - 10 = 4(x - 10) and

2x - 10 = 4x - 40 and

-2x = -30 so

x = 15. That means that Elliot is 30 and Tanya is 15

determine the dimension of cube when the volume is 1.468mcube​

Answers

Answer:

1.137 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cube is given as the cube of the side. A cube is a 3 dimensional shape with equal sides and 6 faces. If the volume is V and the side is s then

V = s * s * s

Given that the volume is 1.468mcube​ then

s^3 = 1.468

s = cube root of 1.468

= 1.137 m

An airplane travels 4020 kilometers against the wind in 6 hours and 4800 kilometers with the wind in the same amount of time. What is the rate of the plane in still air and what is the rate of the wind?

Answers

Answer:

Rate of plane 735 km/hr

Rate of wind 65 km/hr

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculation to determine the rate of the plane in still air

Let Va represent the velocity of the airplane

Let Vw represent the velocity of the wind

When flying with the wind:

(Va+Vw)*(6 hours) = 4800

6Va + 6Vw = 4800

6Vw = 4800 - 6Va

Vw=4800/6-Va

Vw = 800 - Va

When flying against the wind:

(Va-Vw)*(6 hours) = 4020 km

6Va - 6Vw = 4020

Substitute 800-Va for Vw and solve for Va:

6Va - 6(800-Va) = 4020

6Va -4800 + 6Va = 4020

12Va = 8820

Va=8820/12

Va = 735 km/hr

Therefore the rate of the plane in still air is 735 km/hr

Calculation to determine the rate of the wind

Rate of wind:

Vw = 800 - Va

Vw= 800 -735

Vw= 65 km/hr

Therefore the rate of the wind is 65 km/hr

find k so that x^2+2x+k is a factor of 2x^4+x^3-14x^2+5x+6. also find all the zeroes of the two polynomial​

Answers

Compute the quotient and remainder,

[tex]\dfrac{2x^4+x^3-14x^2+5x+6}{x^2+2x+k} \\\\ = 2x^2 - 3x - (8+2k) + \dfrac{(21+7k)x+(6+8k+2k^2)}{x^2+2x+k}[/tex]

The remainder upon dividing [tex]2x^4+x^3-14x^2+5x+6[/tex] by [tex]x^2+2x+k[/tex] should leave no remainder, which means

[tex]21+7k = 0 \implies 21 = -7k \implies k=-3[/tex]

and

[tex]6+8k+2k^2 = 0 \implies 2(k+3)(k+1)=0 \implies k=-3\text{ or }k=-1[/tex]

Only k = -3 makes both remainder terms vanish.

Then the previous result reduces to

[tex]\dfrac{2x^4+x^3-14x^2+5x+6}{x^2+2x-3} = 2x^2 - 3x - 2[/tex]

so that

[tex]2x^4+x^3-14x^2+5x+6 = (x^2+2x-3) (2x^2 - 3x - 2) \\\\ 2x^4+x^3-14x^2+5x+6 = (x+3)(x-1)(2x + 1)(x-2)[/tex]

and so the zeroes of the quartic polynomial are x = -3, x = 1, x = -1/2, and x = 2.

Using two independent samples, two population means are compared to determine if a difference exists. The population standard deviations are equal.

Hence the degrees of freedom are associated with the critical value is 25.

Step-by-step explanation:

Using two independent samples, two population means are  

compared to determine if a difference exists, the population standard deviation is equal.

Find the shortest side of a triangle whose perimeter is 64 if the ratio of two of its sides is 4:3 and the third side is 20 less than the sum if the other two

Answers

Answer:

The shortest side of the triangle is 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the sides the triangle be x, y and z.

From the question, the perimeter of the rectangle is 64, that is

x + y + z = 64 ...... (1)

Also, the ratio of two of its sides is 4:3, that is x:y = 4:3, then we can write that x/y = 4/3 ⇒ 3x = 4y ...... (2)

The third side, z, is 20 less than the sum of the other two, that is

z + 20 = x + y ...... (3)

Substitute equation (3) into (1)

Then,

z + 20 + z = 64

2z +20 = 64

2z = 64 - 20

2z = 44

z = 44/2 k

z = 22

From equation (3)

z + 20 = x + y

Then, k

22 + 20 = x +y

42 = x + y

x = 42 - y ...... (4)

Substitute this into equation 2

3x = 4y

3(42-y) = 4y

126 - 3y = 4y

4y + 3y = 126

7y = 126

y = 126/7

y = 18

Substitute this into equation (4)

x = 42 - y

x = 42 - 18

x = 24

∴ x = 24, y = 18 and z = 22

Hence, the shortest side of the triangle is 18.

A perpendicular bisector, intersects a line at its mid point and is perpendicular to it.

Calculate slope m using the slope formula

m = [tex]\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }[/tex]

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 7, 1) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (9, 13)

m = [tex]\frac{13-1}{9-(-7)}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{12}{9+7}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{12}{16}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex]

Given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is

[tex]m_{perpendicular}[/tex] = - [tex]\frac{1}{m}[/tex] = - [tex]\frac{1}{\frac{3}{4} }[/tex] = - [tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex] ←  slope of perpendicular bisector

Given endpoints (x₁, y₁ ) and (x₂, y₂ ) then the midpoint is

([tex]\frac{x_{1}+x_{2} }{2}[/tex], [tex]\frac{y_{1}+y_{2} }{2}[/tex] )

using (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 7, 1) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (9, 13) , then

midpoint = ( [tex]\frac{-7+9}{2}[/tex], [tex]\frac{1+13}{2}[/tex] ) = ( [tex]\frac{2}{2}[/tex], [tex]\frac{14}{2}[/tex] ) = (1, 7 )

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Here m = - [tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex] , then

y = - [tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex] x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute the midpoint (1, 7) into the partial equation

7 = - [tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex] + c ⇒ c = [tex]\frac{21}{3}[/tex] + [tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{25}{3}[/tex]

y = - [tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex] x + [tex]\frac{25}{3}[/tex] ← equation of perpendicular bisector
