Williiam lost 25% of his marble,gave 1/6 of the remainder to his.Brother and had 120 marbles left.How many marbles did he have at first?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Number of marbles with Williams at the starting = 192

Step-by-step explanation:

Let total number of marbles with Williams = m

He lost marbles = 25% of the total number

                           = [tex]\frac{25}{100}\times m[/tex]

                           = [tex]\frac{m}{4}[/tex]

Remaining marbles with Williams = m - [tex]\frac{m}{4}[/tex]

                                                        = [tex]\frac{3m}{4}[/tex]

He gave marbles to his brother = [tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex]th of the remaining marbles

                                                    = [tex]\frac{1}{6}\times \frac{3m}{4}[/tex]

                                                    = [tex]\frac{m}{8}[/tex]

Remaining marbles after giving marbles to his brother = 120

Therefore, [tex]\frac{3m}{4}-\frac{m}{8}=120[/tex]

[tex]\frac{6m}{8}-\frac{m}{8}=120[/tex]

[tex]\frac{5m}{8}=120[/tex]

m = [tex]\frac{120\times 8}{5}[/tex]

m = 192

Number of marbles with Williams at the starting = 192

A metre stick is left outside in the sun and it expands. Explain how this will affect the sticks accuracy and precision. I'm just confused what they mean by the question lol The stick?? Expands???

Answers

Answer:

The expansion of a metre stick (also known as meter stick) in the Sun will affect the meters stick accuracy by reducing the values of the actual length of the dimensions measured with the meter stick

The linear expansion, ΔL, of the meter stick is given according to the following formula;

ΔL = ∝·L₀·ΔT

Where;

ΔL = The expansion (change in length) of the meter stick

∝ =  The coefficient of linear expansion for the meter stick

L₀ = The initial length of the meter stick = 1 meter

ΔT = The temperature change of the meter stick

Due to the small value of ∝ for a meter stick, the change in length of the meter stick is small but the difference will affect the accuracy of the measurements made by the meter stick and the length of an item with actual length of 1 meter can be given by the expanded meter stick as 99 cm

The temperature at midnight was -12 degrees F. The temperature rose to 28 degrees by noon.

Figure out how many degrees the temperature changed from midnight to noon.

-12 to 28 is 40.
So the temperature change was 40 degrees F from midnight to noon

5m - 2n=4
m - 4n = -1
20 3x + 5y = 11
2x - y=3​

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

5m - 2n = 4

 m - 4n = -1     add 4n to both sides   m - 4n + 4n = 4n - 1  

 m = 4n - 1      now substitute for m into the first equation

5(4n -1) - 2n = 4

20n - 5 - 2n = 4           combine the n coeffients  and add 5 to both sides

18n - 5  = 4 + 5

18n  = 9      solve for n      by dividing 18 by both sides

 18 n/18   =  9 /18

      n   =    1/2      now find for m using  m = 4n - 1    m = 4(1/2) - 1   m = 2 -1  = 1

      m  =   1          (1, 1/2)  solves the two equations

3x + 5y = 11      equation 1    

2x - y = 3​          multiply both sides by 5 so when you add the two equation

                         the y term is eliminated  (becomes zero)

5(2x-y) = 5(3)

10x - 5y = 15    equation 2      add equation 1 and equation 2

3x + 5y = 11     add the like terms

10x - 5y = 15    add the like terms

(3x + 10x) + (5y - 5y) = (11 + 15)

   13x        +     0       =    26               the y tern is gone   now solve for x      

   13x = 26

    13x/13  = 26/13

     x = 2                        now find y    using  2x - y = 3

   2x - y = 3         add y and subtract 3 from both sides

   2x - y + (y - 3)  =  3 + (y - 3)

   2x - 3 = y         we already know x = 2

   2(2) - 3 = y

     4 - 3 = y

        1  = y           answer (2,1)   solves the two equaitons

Find the indicated side of the triangle.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Because a and b are both opposite 45 degree angles, a=b. Using the Pythagorean Theorem we can say.

[tex]2a^2=28^2\\ \\ 2a^2=784\\ \\ a^2=\frac{784}{2}\\ \\ a=\sqrt{\frac{784}{2}}\\ \\ a=\frac{28}{\sqrt{2}}[/tex]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  a = b = 28/√2

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratios of side lengths in an isosceles right triangle are ...

  1 : 1 : √2 = a : b : 28

If we multiply the first ratio numbers by 28/√2, we get ...

  1 : 1 : √2 = (28/√2) : (28/√2) : 28

That is, ...

  a = b = 28/√2

_____

Alternate solution

Once you realize the triangle is isosceles, so that a=b, then you can use the Pythagorean theorem.

  a^2 + a^2 = 28^2

  2a^2 = 28^2 . . . . . . simplify

  a√2 = 28 . . . . .  take the positive square root

  a = b = 28/√2
