At practice, Diego does twice as many push-ups as Noah, and also 40 jumping jacks. He does 62 exercises in total. The equation 2x + 40 = 62 describes this situation. What is the value of x?

Answers

Answer 1

The value of x would be 11.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can simply just isolate x in the equation to solve:

2x + 40 = 62

(Subtract 40 from both sides) 2x = 22

(Divide each side by 2) x = 11

Hope this helps! :)

Answer 2
Answer:  x = 11

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

Explanation:

If we knew the value of x, we would use PEMDAS to evaluate 2x+40 to get some single number value. For instance, if x = 4, then 2x+40 becomes 2(4)+40 which evaluates to 48 when you use PEMDAS.

However, we don't know the value of x. To find x, we follow PEMDAS in reverse to undo everything happening to x.

Note the order in which stuff is happening to x

multiply by 2add 40

To undo this, we follow this process in reverse. So we need to undo the "add 40" part first, which was the last thing done. That means we'll subtract 40 from both sides

2x+40 = 62

2x+40-40 = 62-40

2x = 22

Then we undo the "multiply by 2" part. We'll divide both sides by 2

2x = 22

2x/2 = 22/2

x = 11

Let's check the answer.

2x+40 = 62

2(11)+40 = 62 ... x replaced with 11

22+40 = 62

62 = 62

Since we get the same thing on both sides, we get a true equation and this confirms we have the correct x value.

A stainless steel patio heater is a square pyramid. The length of one side of the base is 23.6. in. The slant height of the pyramid is 90.9. in. What is the height of the​ pyramid?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The height of the heater is about 89.3 in.

You can solve this problem with the Pythagorean Theorem. The base is a square. So half way across the middle will the right under the tip of the pyramid. We can use the measurement with the slant height to write and solve the equation below.

23.8^2 + x^2 = 90.1^2

the temperature fell 16 degrees fahrenheit from 50 to 34 degrees in 10 hours. How much would the temperature fall over 15 hours if the pattern continued?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]x = 24\ degrees[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

16 degrees = 10 hours

Required

Determine the change over 16 hours

Let the change be represented with x,

So, we have:

16 degrees = 10 hours

x = 15 hours

Cross Multiply:

[tex]x * 10\ hours = 16\ degrees * 15\ hours[/tex]

[tex]x * 10 = 16\ degrees * 15[/tex]

Divide through by 10

[tex]x = \frac{16\ degrees * 15}{10}[/tex]

[tex]x = 16\ degrees * 1.5[/tex]

[tex]x = 24\ degrees[/tex]

Sam and Pam's pennies add up to 22. Same has 1 more penny than twice Pam's pennies. How many pennies do Sam and Pam have?

Answers

Answer:

pam has x = 7 pennies

sam has 2x + 1 = 14 + 1 = 15 pennies

Step-by-step explanation:

let's take the number of pennies that pam owns be x

sam's pennies = 2× ( pam's pennies ) + 1

=》2x + 1

if the total pennies owned by both = 22

then,

x + 2x +1 = 22

3x = 22 - 1

x = 21 ÷ 3

x = 7

so, pam has x = 7 pennies

sam has 2x + 1 = 14 + 1 = 15 pennies

The value of x.

Solution:

According to the geometric mean attitude theorem, if an altitude is drawn from the right angle vertex to the hypotenuse, then the altitude is the geometric mean of segments of hypotenuse.

Using geometric mean attitude theorem, we get

[tex]\dfrac{3}{x}=\dfrac{x}{5}[/tex]

[tex]3\times 5=x\times x[/tex]

[tex]15=x^2[/tex]

[tex]\pm \sqrt{15}=x[/tex]

Therefore, the value of x is [tex]\sqrt{15}[/tex].

The amount a tree grows in one month is directly proportional to the amount of water it is given. When a tree is giving 21 gallons of water it grows 8 cm that month. What is the constant of proportionality for this variation? record your answer to the nearest thousand.

Answers

Answer:

k = 0.381cm/gallon

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the amount a tree grows in one month be x

Let amount of water it is given be y

If the amount a tree grows in one month is directly proportional to the amount of water it is given, then;

x ∝ y

x = ky

k is the constant of proportionality

k = x/y

Given

x = 8cm

y = 21 gallons

k = 8/21

k = 0.381cm/gallon

A total of 1,650 boxes of Girl Scout cookies were sold last week. Each large box cost $3.50 and each small box cost $2.00. The Girl Scout group

earned $4,650. How many large boxes and how many small boxes of cookies were sold?

Answers

Answer:

900 large boxes were sold, and 750 small boxes.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question can be solved by a system of equations.

I am going to say that:

x is the number of large boxes of cookies sold.

y is the number of small boxes of cookies sold.

A total of 1,650 boxes of Girl Scout cookies were sold last week.

This means that

[tex]x + y = 1650[/tex]

So

[tex]x = 1650 - y[/tex]

Each large box cost $3.50 and each small box cost $2.00. The Girl Scout group earned $4,650.

This means that

[tex]3.5x + 2y = 4650[/tex]

Since [tex]x = 1650 - y[/tex]

[tex]3.5(1650 - y) + 2y = 4650[/tex]

[tex]5775 - 3.5y + 2y = 4650[/tex]

[tex]1.5y = 1125[/tex]

[tex]y = \frac{1125}{1.5}[/tex]

[tex]y = 750[/tex]

[tex]x = 1650 - y = 1650 - 750 = 900[/tex]

900 large boxes were sold, and 750 small boxes.

State the domain and range of both the function and the inverse function. f(x) = 8 x + 8 f -1(x) = Domain of f(x): Range of f(x): Domain of f -1(x): Range of f -1(x)

Answers

Answer:

[tex]f^{-1}(x) = \frac{x+8}{8}[/tex]

Domain of f(x): All real values.

Range of f(x): All real values.

Domain of f -1(x): All real values.

Range of f -1(x): All real values

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following function:

[tex]f(x) = 8x + 8[/tex]

Since it is a line, we have that both the domain is the range is the real set.

Inverse function:

The domain of the inverse function is the range of the original function, and the range of the inverse function is the domain of the original function.

Finding the inverse function:

Exchange x and y in the original function, and isolate y. So

Original

[tex]y = 8x + 8[/tex]

Exchanging:

[tex]x = 8y - 8[/tex]

Isolating y:

[tex]8y = x + 8[/tex]

[tex]y = \frac{x+8}{8}[/tex]

[tex]f^{-1}(x) = \frac{x+8}{8}[/tex]

A bag contains 10 coloured balls. 5 of them are red and 3 of them are blue. A ball is taken from the bag at random, then replaced. A second ball is then selected at random. Find the probability that the first ball is red and the second ball is blue.

Answers

The probability that the first ball drawn is red and the second ball drawn is blue is 3/20.

The probability that the first ball drawn is red and the second ball drawn is blue, we need to multiply the probability of drawing a red ball on the first draw by the probability of drawing a blue ball on the second draw.

Given that there are 10 balls in total, with 5 red balls and 3 blue balls, the probability of drawing a red ball on the first draw is 5/10 = 1/2.

Since the ball is replaced after the first draw, the total number of balls remains the same for the second draw.

The probability of drawing a blue ball on the second draw is also 3/10.

To find the probability of both events occurring (the first ball being red and the second ball being blue), we multiply the probabilities:

Probability = (Probability of drawing a red ball) × (Probability of drawing a blue ball)

= (1/2) × (3/10)

= 3/20
