The sum of two numbers is 50. If the larger number is divided by the
smaller number we get 7/11. Find the numbers.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Set two equations:

Number #1 = xNumber #2 = y

[tex]\left \{ {{x+y=50} \atop {\frac{x}{y}=\frac{7}{11} }} \right.[/tex]

Rearrange one of the equations to find the value of a variable:

[tex]x+y=50\\x=50-y[/tex]

Substitute in that value into the other equation:

[tex]\frac{50-y}{y}=\frac{7}{11}[/tex]

Cross-multiply & solve for y:

[tex]7y=11(50-y) \\7y=550-11y\\7y+11y=550\\18y=550\\y=\frac{550}{18}=\frac{275}{9}[/tex]

Substitute in the value to the original equation to find x:

[tex]\frac{x}{\frac{275}{9}}=\frac{7}{11} \\\frac{9x}{275}=\frac{7}{11} \\9(11)x=275(7)\\99x=1925\\x=\frac{1925}{99} =\frac{175}{9}[/tex]

Therefore, the answer will be:

x = [tex]\frac{175}{9}[/tex]y = [tex]\frac{275}{9}[/tex]

You can check your answers by:

[tex]\frac{175}{9} +\frac{275}{9} =\frac{450}{9} =50[/tex]

[tex]\frac{\frac{175}{9} }{\frac{275}{9} } =\frac{175}{9} *\frac{9}{275} =\frac{175}{275}=\frac{7}{11}[/tex]

Answer 2

Answer:

x = 175/9

y = 275/9

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the larger number be 'x' and smaller number be 'y'

sum of two numbers is 50.

x +y = 50 --------(I)

      x = 50 - y   -------------(II)

The larger number is divided by the smaller number we get 7/11.

[tex]\frac{x}{y}=\frac{7}{11}\\\\[/tex]

Cross multiply,

11x = 7y

11x - 7y = 0 ------------(III)

Substitute x = 50 -y in equation (III)

11*(50-y) - 7y = 0  

11*50 - 11*y - 7y  = 0             {Distributive property}

550 - 11y - 7y = 0  

550 - 18 y = 0        {Combine like terms}

Subtract 550 from both sides

- 18y = -550

Divide both sides by (-18)

y = -550/-18

y = 275/9

substitute y = 275/9 in equation (III)

[tex]11x - 7*(\frac{275}{9})=0\\\\11x-\frac{1925}{9}=0\\\\11x =\frac{1925}{9}\\\\x=\frac{1925}{9*11}\\\\x=\frac{175}{9}[/tex]

0.135, 1.35, 1.352, 13.5

=====================================================

Explanation:

Ascending order means "smallest to largest"

The smallest item is 0.135, then we move to 1.35, then to 1.352, and finally 13.5

The reason why 1.35 is smaller than 1.352 is to think of the first value is 1.350; then note how 350 is smaller than 352.

Answer:

The distribution is positively skewed.

Step-by-step explanation:

It's not symmetric because the distribution in the chart isn't equally shown or marked. It's not negative skewed either because for it to be negative the graph would have to go down in a negative direction, usually the left, but in the picture you posted the graph is going down in the right direction. Lastly, positively skewed graphs or charts look like the one you posted. They go down in the right direction, hence why they're called "positively" skewed. The right tail of the distribution is longer in positively skewed graphs or charts.

15x + 14 = 149


Plz solve for x

Answers

Answer:

x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

When doing these types of problems, the main goal is to get the variable by itself. Its kind of hard to explain with words so I will just use numbers.

15x + 14 = 149

(Subtract 14 on both sides. Remember, when you do something (Like subtracting, adding, etc.) on one side you have to do it to the other.)

15x + 14 = 149

       -14 =  -14

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

15x = 135

(Divide 15 on both sides. Since we need to use inverse operation to cancel the 15 out, we would divide 15 on both sides.)

15x/15 = 135/15

x = 9

Hope this helps :)

Answer:

x=9

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\sf 15x + 14 = 149[/tex]

[tex]\sf 15x+14-14=149-14[/tex]

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

If the ratio of girls to boys is 3:5, that means that for every 8 total students, 3 would be girls and 5 would be boys. Therefore 3/8 of the students are girls and 5/8 are boys. If 3/8 are girls, then:

[tex]\frac{3}{8}[/tex] of 32

Answers

Answer:

f(x)^-1(x) =sqrt(x+5) -6

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = (x + 6)^2 - 5

y =  (x + 6)^2 - 5

Exchange x and y and solve for y

x = (y + 6)^2 - 5

Add 5 to each side

x+5 =  (y + 6)^2 - 5+5

x+5 =  (y + 6)^2

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(x+5 )= sqrt( (y + 6)^2 )

sqrt(x+5 )=(y + 6)

Subtract 6 from each side

sqrt(x+5 ) -6=y + 6-6

sqrt(x+5) -6 = y
