The sum of Alyssa's age and her sister's age is 48 years. Alyssa's age is 6 years less than twice her sister's age. What is Alyssa's age, and what is her sister's age?​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Alyssa's Sister = 18, Alyssa = 30

Step-by-step explanation:

48 = 2x-6 + x

54 = 2x + x

54 = 3x

18 = x

2(18) - 6

36 - 6

30

48 = 2(18) - 6 + 18

48 = 36 - 6 + 18

48 = 30 + 18

48 = 48

With a headwind a plane traveled 128 km in 2h. The return trip with a tail wind took 24 min less. Find the air speed of the plane.

WILL GIVE BRAINLY TO FIRST ANSWER

Answers

Based on the information given, it can be noted that the air speed that the plane has will be 71.1 km per hour.

The number of hours used for the return trip will be:

= 2 hours - 24 minutes.

= 1 hour 36 minutes.

= 1.6 hours.

Therefore, the speed of the air plane will be:

= (128 + 128) / (2 + 1.6)

= 256/3.6.

= 71.1 km per hour.

how many solutions does x squared= 4x -5 have

Answers

Answer: There are no solutions

Answer:

Two

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 = 4x - 5 is equivalent to x^2 - 4x + 5 = 0 in standard quadratic form.

All quadratics have exactly two roots/solutions.

In this case the coefficients of the polynomial are 1, -4 and 5, and so the discriminant is b^2 - 4ac, or (-4)^2 - 4(1)(5), or 16 - 20 = -4.

Since the discriminant is negative, we conclude that this polynomial has two complex roots/solutions.

En un barrio de 3.120 habitantes, se realizó una encuesta a 620 sobre la preferencia
por comer huevo al desayuno todos los días, contestando que, si le gusta 18 personas,
probablemente en el barrio, ¿cuántas personas prefieren lo mismo?

Answers

Es probable que el número de personas a las que si les gusta comer huevo al desayuno todos los días sea 90 personas.

Según principios estadísticos, es posible determinar una tendencia general utilizando una muestra de la población. En otras palabras, es posible tener una idea aproximada de las preferencias de una población si se logran determinar las preferencias de un pequeño grupo de dicha población.

En este caso sabemos que la población total equivale a 3120 habitantes, la muestra equivale a 620 personas y en la muestra 18 personas comen huevo al desayuno todos los días.

Usando una regla de tres podemos determinar la tendencia general:

Si a 18 personas de 620 les gusta comer huevo todos los días al desayuno, a cuántas personas de 3120 les gusta lo mismo.

18 = 620x = 3120

x = 18 x 3120 / 620x = 56160 / 620x=  90

Es decir que aproximadamente 90 personas tienen esta misma preferencia.

Write the equation of the line in fully simplified slope-intercept form

Answers

Answer:

y = -5/6x + 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have 2 points, (6,0) and (6,1), we can calculate for the slope by using the formula

Slope = m = (y2 - y1)/(x2-x1) = (1-6)/(6-0) = -5/6

Then plug in m, x(from one of the point), and y(from one of the point) to the equation y = mx + b which get us 0 = -5/6*6+b if we use the point (6,0). Now we'll get b = 6. And then plug in -5/6 for m and 6 for b into the equation y = mx + b we'll get y = -5/6x + 6

Statement 1: If √12 - √8 = a, then √12 + √8 is equal to 4/a.
Statement 2: a + √b is called the rationalizing factor of c + √d if their product is 1.

• Statement 1 is true; Statement 2 is true; Statement 2 is the correct explanation of Statement 1.

• Statement 1 is true; Statement 2 is true; 2 is not the correct explanation of Statement 1.

• Statement 1 is true; Statement 2 is false.

• Statement 1 is false; Statement 2 is true.

It is an assertion-reasoning question. Please help me to solve this. Need step-by-step explanation as well. Thank you.​

Answers

Answer:

Statement 1 is true; Statement 2 is false.

Step-by-step explanation:

Statement 1:

√12 - √8 = a

Let's use the given value of √12 + √8 ,that is, 4/ a.

If we multiply both the expressions such that their Left Hand Sides get multiplies together and Right Hand Sides together:

=> (√12- √8)(√12 + √8) = a × 4/a

On the LHS,

identity used:

(a-b)(a+b) = a²-b²

On the RHS:

a gets canceled due to its presence in both the numerator as well as the denominator.

=> 12 - 8 = 4

=> 4 = 4

That's it!

We got LHS = RHS, that approves the existence of the given statement.

___________________

Statement 2:

"a + √b is called the rationalizing factor of c + √d if their product is 1"

That's not entirely right!

The correct statement would be:

" a + √b is called the rationalizing factor of c + √d if their product is a rational number ."

Since, rationalizing has got nothing to do with 1, (1 is just another rational number), even if we get 2 by their multiplication, it will be called rationalizing as long as we're getting a rational number.

___________________

Answer:

Hence, I'd say:

Statement 1 is correct but Statement 2 isn't.

That's the third option.
