The sum of two numbers is 75. The second number is 3
less than twice the first. Find the numbers. Please give me the answer step by step on how to solve it.

Answers

Answer 1
First set up an equation:

x + (2x-3) = 75
now add both together

3x-3 =75

move over the constant

3x=78

and divide by 3

x= 26

Hope this helps!!
Answer 2

Answer:

x= 26 y = 49

Step-by-step explanation:

let the first number be x and second be y

then

according to the question,

x + y= 75

x + (2x- 3) = 75

x + 2x - 3 = 75

3x = 75 +3

3x = 78

x = 78/3

x = 26

thus first number is 26

and second number is 2x-3=2×26-3

= 52 - 3= 49

Carter paid $21 000 for a car and later sold it to Sienna for 75% of what he paid. Afterwards, Sienna sold it to her friend Charli for 60% of what she had paid Carter. How much did Charli pay for the car?

Answers

Answer:

Amount Charli paid for the car = $9,450

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount Carter paid for the car = $21,000

Sienna paid 75% of what Charli paid

Amount Sienna paid for the car = 75% of $21,000

= 75/100 * $21,000

= 0.75 * $21,000

= $15,750

Amount Sienna paid for the car = $15,750

Charli paid 60% of what Sienna paid

Amount Charli paid for the car = 60% of $15,750

= 60/100 * 15,750

= 0.60 * 15,750

= $9,450

Amount Charli paid for the car = $9,450

The exact value of cot A will be 0.857.

What is trigonometry?

The connection between the lengths and angles of a triangular shape is the subject of trigonometry.

The co-secant of angle A is √85 / 6. And that angle A is in Quadrant I.

Then the value of angle A will be

csc A = √85 / 6

1 / cos A = √85 / 6

cos A = 6 / √85

A = 49.4°

Then the exact value of cot A will be

cot A = cot 49.4°

cot A = 0.857

The exact value of cot A will be 0.857.

What is the recursive and explicit formula of the geometric sequence?
2,5, 12.5, 31.25, 78, 125, ...

Answers

Answer:

Option (2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given geometric sequence is,

2, 5, 12.5, 31.25, 78.125......

First term = a₁ = 2

Common ratio of the sequence = r = [tex]\frac{5}{2}[/tex]

                                                          = 2.5

Recursive formula of a geometric sequence is given by,

[tex]a_n=a_{n-1}(r)[/tex]

Here, [tex]a_n=[/tex] nth term of the sequence

[tex]a_{n-1}=[/tex] (n - 1)th term

r = common ratio

Therefore, recursive formula for the given sequence will be,

[tex]a_1=2[/tex]

[tex]a_n=a_{n-1}(2.5)[/tex]

Explicit formula of a geometric sequence is given by,

[tex]a_n=a_1(r)^{n-1}[/tex]

Therefore, explicit formula of the sequence will be,

[tex]a_n=2(2.5)^{n-1}[/tex]

Option (2) will be the correct option.

A different car can travel 30.5 miles for every gallon of gas used.

Use proportional reasoning to find the value of x that completes the table showing this relationship.

Answers

Answer:

91.5

Step-by-step explanation:

If the table is asking for the amount of miles travelled on 3 gallons of gas, you get 3 * 30.5 = 91.5

This is because one gallon gives 30.5 miles and if you have three gallons, you get 30.5 + 30.5 + 30.5 which is the same as 3 * 30.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume = 4,410 yd
30 yd
radius =

Answers

Answer:

Radius = 11.85yd

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of a Cone formula: V = πr²(h/3)

We know that;

V = Volume

r = radius

π = pi (this is a sign located on your calculator)

h = height

We are given that;

V = 4,410

r = unknown

h = 30

Let's substitute the values in:

=> V = πr²(h/3)

=> 4,410 = πr²(30/3)

=> 4,410 = πr²(10)

=> 4,410 / 10 = πr²

=> 441 = πr²

=> 441 / π = r²

=> 140.37 = r²

=> [tex]\sqrt{140.37}[/tex] = r

=> 11.85 = r

Therefore, the radius of the cone = 11.85yd

Write a quadratic function in vertex form whose graph has the vertex (1, 0) and passes through the point (2, −17) .
f(x)=

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Vertex (h, k ) = (1,0)

Now,

We know,

f(x) = a(x-h)²+k

Since, it passess through (2, −17)

Put x = 2 and  y = - 17

or, -17 = a(2 - 1)² + 0

or, -17 = a

Now,

f(x) = a(x - h)² + k

     = -17(x - 1)² + 0

     = -17x² + 34x - 17

Find the y-coordinate of the y-intercept of the polynomial function defined
below.
f(x) = 9x^2 – 7 – 8x

Answers

The y intercept is where the function passes through the y axis, so the “x” value needs to equal 0. We sub 0 in for “x” and solve for “y”.

f(0) = 9(0)^2 - 7 - 8(0)

f(0) = -7

Therefore the “y” coordinate would be -7

The ordered pair would be

(0, -7)
