Bruno and Willie need a total of $50,000 to start an accounting business. Bruno has spent a lot of time getting the business set up, so Willie agrees to contribute $12,000 more than Bruno. How much money will Willie contribute?

Answers

Answer 1

The amount contributed by Willie and Bruno is $31000 and $19,000 respectively.

Let amount contributed by Willie be x

Let amount contributed by Bruno be y

Since Willie agreed to contribute $12,000 more than Bruno;

Therefore;

x - y = 12000....…....... equation (1)

x + y = 50,000...…....... equation (2)

By solving the system of equations simultaneously;

2x = 62000

x = 31000

and y = 50,000 - 31000

y = 19,000

In essence; The amount contributed by Willie and Bruno is $31000 and $19,000 respectively.

kim can mow the greens at the golf course twice as fast as shayla can. Working together, they can mow the greens in 4 hours. How long does it take kim to mow the greens alone

Answers

Answer: Kim can mow the greens alone in 6 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let K be the rate Kim mows the greens, and S the rate for Shayla.  The rates K and S will be in greens/hour.

We know they can mow 1 green in 4 hours.  We can state this as a sum of their rates times the 4 hours equals one green:

(4 hours)*(K + S) = 1 green

We are told that K = 2S [Kim is twice as fast as Shayla]

Subsititute:

(4 hours)*(K + S) = 1 green

(4 hours)*(2S + S) = 1 green

4*(2S + S) = 1 green

12S = 1 green

Shalya's rate is 1 green/12 hours

Kim is twice as fast:  K = 2S

Kim's rate is 1 green/6 hours.

Which equation matches the graph shown?

Answers

Answer:

Vertex form:  y = -2(x - 1)²

Standard form: y = -2x² + 4x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the x-intercept as the vertex, (1, 0), and the y-intercept, (0, -2) as the two points on the graph of a parabola:

We can determine the equation by substituting these given values into the vertex form of the quadratic equation:

y = a(x - h)² + k

where:

a = determines the direction of where the graph opens, and the wideness or narrowness of the parabola.

(h, k) = vertex

Solve for the value of a:

Use vertex: (1, 0) and y-intercept, (0, -2):

y = a(x - h)² + k

-2 = a(0 - 1)² + 0

-2 = a(-1)²

-2 = a(1)

-2 = a

Quadratic Equation:Vertex form:

The quadratic equation in vertex form that matches the graph is:

y = -2(x - 1)² + 0 or  y = -2(x - 1)² This is the quadratic equation in vertex form.

Standard form:

To transform the vertex form into the standard form, y = ax² + bx + c:

Simply expand the perfect square, (x - 1)², through FOIL method before distributing -2:

y = -2(x - 1)²

y = -2(x - 1)(x - 1)

y = -2(x² -2x + 1)

y = -2x² + 4x - 2 ⇒ This is the quadratic equation in standard form.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the method of long division to divide the polynomial by x + 4

               

                   x² - 5x + 6

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

x + 4   |  x³ - x² - 14x + 24

             x³ + 4x²

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

                  - 5x² - 14x + 24

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

                               6x + 24

                               6x + 24

Answers

Answer:

The baker baked 375 loaves of bread that day.

Step-by-step explanation:

The baker baked a total of x loaves of bread.

240 loaves were sold by the end of the day.

The baker was then left with 9/25 of the number of loaves that were baked.

We get the equation:

x-240 = 9x/25

When you solve the equation, you will see that x=375.

Therefore, the baker baked 375 loaves of bread that day.

Rotate the point (-3,-4) around the origin 180 degrees clockwise. State the image of the
point.

Answers

Answer:

(3,4)

Step-by-step explanation:

There are rules for rotations that make it really easy to find the images of any given point for any given rotation. In this case, we have an 180° clockwise rotation, and to find the image of any point rotated this way, we just have to make the x-values and y-values negative.

In this case, we have (-3,-4). Let's make each value negative: (-(-3), -(-4)). Our negative signs cancel out and we get (3,4). And that's the image of the point (-3,-4) at a 180° clockwise rotation about the origin.

isaacs new panoramic television is 40 inches and 9 inches high. what is the diagonal size of Isaac’s television?

Answers

Answer:

41 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for the diagonal length of his television, we can use the formula:

a² + b² = c²

Square the length and width of the TV then add them together. Then find the square root of the sum.

40² = 1600

9² = 81

1600 + 81 = 1681

√1681 = 41

Find the coordinates of the point(s) of intersection between the following functions: y=x-1 and y=117/x-5

Answers

Answer:

(-8.-9) and (14,13).

Step-by-step explanation:

y=x-1

y=117/x-5

As the 2 terms in x are both equal to y:

x-1 = 117/x-5

(x-1)(x-5) = 117

x^2 - 6x + 5 - 117 = 0

x^2 - 6x - 112 = 0

(x + 8)(x - 14) = 0

x = -8, 14.

When x = -8, y = -8-1 = -9

When x = 14, y = 14-1 = 13.

The required coordinate points are (-8.-9) and (14,13).

Functions and values

Given the following equations

y=x-1

y=117/x-5

Equating both function will give

x-1 = 117/x-5

(x-1)(x-5) = 117

x^2 - 6x + 5 - 117 = 0

x^2 - 6x - 112 = 0

(x + 8)(x - 14) = 0

x = -8, 14.

When x = -8, y = -8-1 = -9

When x = 14, y = 14-1 = 13.

Hence the required coordinate points are (-8.-9) and (14,13).

A box contains 6 black pens, 4 blue pens, and 7 red pens. Without looking, Clarissa randomly picks a black pen out of the box. If she chooses another pen out of the box without replacing the first one, what is the probability that she will pick a black pen both times? Write your answer as a percent.
Group of answer choices

Answers

Answer:

31.35%

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial reading:

In the box, there are:

6 Black pens4 blue pens7 red pens

Total number of pens in the box = 6 + 4 + 7

= 17

If we count pens as outcomes the total number of possible outcomes are 17.

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

New reading:

Clarissa takes out a black pen from the box.

That reduces the number of black pens by 1 which increases the total number of pens by 1 as well.

So now:

Number of black pens = 6 - 1 = 5 Total number of pens = 17 - 1 = 16

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

Probability:

[tex] \boxed{ \mathsf{probability = \frac{favorable \: outcomes}{total \: outcomes} }}[/tex]

If we want her to pick up a black pen, and she ends up picking one. So, we can say that the outcome is in our favor.

That makes it,

the number of favorable outcomes = number of black pens

= 5

and total outcomes = Total number of pens

= 16

[tex] \implies\mathsf{probability = \frac{5}{16} }[/tex]

For showing it as some percent we'll just multiply the fraction by 100

[tex] \implies \mathsf{ \frac{5}{16} \times 100 }[/tex]

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

As a percent:

[tex] \implies \mathsf{ \underline{ 31.25 \: \% } }[/tex]

Why is this wrong?? Trying to do test corrections

Answer:

See answer below

Step-by-step explanation:

  y = one time fee

  35x = hourly rate( hours worked)

  35x + y = $190

   y =  - 35x = 190

 

  $35 per hours ×  hours work and you did not used the total cost $190

Next time rewrite the sentence and translate into an equation.

The  customers service charges = one-time fee + hourly rate$ ( hours worked)

                                          190   =  y + 35(x)    point slope form

                                        - 35x + 190 = y

What is the total weight of the steel gate

Answers

Answer:

Simple. since we know the weight per given length, we simply need to know the total length of all steel used. the perimeter is easy as it is given, 2×12 and 2×5 for a total perimeter of 24+10 or 34m. now the diagonals must be calculated...

since this is a right triangle, one could easily use a trig function to calculate, but to keep it simple pathag. theorum a2+b2=c2, where the 2 means squared. rearrange to c=sqrt(a2+b2), or 12 squared + 5 squared...giving 144+25=169. then take square rt of 169. this is length of one diagonal, remember to multiply by 2 since there are two diagonal pieces. add this to total perimeter of 34m above.

now that total length is known, simply multiply by weight/m for total weight
