Answer:

30 Oranges!

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that for every 2 apples there are 3 oranges.

How many oranges would be there in a basket of 20 apples?

Since for every couple of apples we have 3 oranges we will calculate how many couples of apples are there in the basket.

Given there are 20 apples. This means that there are [tex]$ \frac{20}{2} $[/tex] = 10 pairs of apples.

Since for one pair we have three oranges, for 10 pairs we would have 3 X 10 = 30 oranges.

Therefore, we can conclude that the number of oranges in the bigger basket would be 30.

Urgent!!! Triangle ABC has angles the following angle measures. m<A=2x+7 , m<B=10x+10 and m<C=8x+23. what is the value of x and what is the measure of each angle?

x=
m<A=
m<B=
m<C=​

Answers

Answer:

The Value of x= 7.

m∠A= 21°

m∠B= 80°

m∠C= 79°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

m∠A = 2x+7

m∠B = 10x+10

m∠C = 8x+23

We need to find the value of x and measures of each angle.

Now by angle sum property which states that sum of all angles of a triangle are 180°.

Hence from above statement we can say in ΔABC;

m∠A+m∠B+m∠C=180

Now substituting the given values in above equation we get;

[tex]2x+7+10x+10+8x+23=180\\2x+10x+8x+7+10+23=180\\20x+40=180\\20x=180-40\\20x=140\\\\x=\frac{140}{20} =7[/tex]

Hence value of x is 7.

Substituting the value of x in all angles we get;

m∠A=[tex]2x+7=2\times7+7=14+7=21\°[/tex]

m∠B=[tex]10x+10=10\times7+10=70+10=80\°[/tex]

m∠C=[tex]8x+23= 8\times7 +23 = 56+23=79\°[/tex]

Final answer:

To find the value of x and the measure of each angle in triangle ABC, set up an equation using the given angle measures. Solve for x and substitute it back in to find the measures of each angle. Then : m<A = 2(7) + 7 = 21 degrees

m<B = 10(7) + 10 = 80 degrees

m<C = 8(7) + 23 = 79 degrees

Explanation:

To find the value of x and the measure of each angle in triangle ABC, we need to set up an equation using the given angle measures. Since the sum of the angles in a triangle is 180 degrees, we can write the equation as:

m<A + m<B + m<C = 180

Substituting the given angle measures, we have:

(2x + 7) + (10x + 10) + (8x + 23) = 180

Simplifying the equation:

20x + 40 = 180

Subtracting 40 from both sides:

20x = 140

Dividing both sides by 20:

x = 7

Now that we know the value of x, we can find the measure of each angle by substituting x into the respective expressions:

m<A = 2(7) + 7 = 21 degrees

m<B = 10(7) + 10 = 80 degrees

m<C = 8(7) + 23 = 79 degrees

What is the equation of the line that is perpendicular to the y-axis and contains the point (-2,7)
A: y=-x+5
B: x=-2
C: y=x+9
D: y=7

Answers

Answer:

y = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The straight line which is perpendicular to the y-axis will be either x-axis or parallel to the x-axis.

Now, the general equation for all straight line which is either x-axis or parallel to x-axis are given by y = c ........... (1), where c is any constant.

For c = 0 the line will be x -axis. therefore, y = 0, is the equation of x-axis.

Now, if the line (1) passes through the point (-2, 7), then the equation will be y = 7. (Answer)  

{Since, the point (-2,7) will satisfy the equation (1) and then c will be equal to 7.}

Jimmy measured four pieces of wood. their measures are 4.2 ft, 9/2 ft, 4.02 ft, and 4 2/9 ft. what's the length of the shortest piece​

Answers

9/2= 4.5 ft
4 2/9= 4.22
4.02, 4.2, 4.22, 4.5
4.02 feet is the shortest length of wood out of throws four pieces

After converting all measurements to the same format (decimals), we can see that the shortest piece of wood Jimmy measured is 4.02 ft.

To find the shortest piece of wood, we first need to convert all the lengths to the same format, preferably in decimals for easier comparison. The lengths of the wood pieces given are 4.2 ft, 9/2 ft, 4.02 ft, and 4 2/9 ft.

Let's break it down:

4.2ft remains as it is. 9/2ft equals 4.5ft when converted to a decimal. 4.02ft remains as it is. 4 2/9ft equals approximately 4.22ft when the fraction is converted to a decimal.

So, we have pieces of wood that are 4.2 ft, 4.5 ft, 4.02 ft, and 4.22ft. Looking at these numbers, it is clear that the piece of wood that measures 4.02 ft is the shortest.

y is inversely proportional to the square of x.
A table of values for x and y is shown.

a) Express y in terms of x.
b) Work out the positive value of x when y = 25

Answers

Answer:

a) [tex]y=\frac{K}{x^{2} }[/tex]b) [tex]x=\frac{2}{5}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

If [tex]y[/tex] is inversely propotional to the square of [tex]x[/tex], then the relation would be like

[tex]y=\frac{K}{x^{2} }[/tex]

Where [tex]K[/tex] is the constant of propotionality.

Now, we need to use a pair from the table to find the constant of proportionality, we are gonna use [tex](1,4)[/tex]

[tex]y=\frac{K}{x^{2} }\\4=\frac{K}{(1)^{2} } \\K=4[/tex]

Replacing this constant, the expression between variables is

[tex]y=\frac{4}{x^{2} }[/tex]

Which is the answer to a).

Now, if [tex]y=25[/tex] the value of [tex]x[/tex] would be

[tex]y=\frac{4}{x^{2} }\\25=\frac{4}{x^{2} }\\x^{2} =\frac{4}{25}\\ x=\sqrt{\frac{4}{25} }\\ x=\frac{2}{5}[/tex]

Therefore, the answer to b) is [tex]x=\frac{2}{5}[/tex]

Final answer:

In an inverse variation, y is inversely proportional to the square of x. To express y in terms of x, the equation is y = k/(x^2). To find the positive value of x when y = 25, the equation is 25 = k/(x^2), and x = sqrt(k/25) is the solution.

Explanation:

In an inverse variation, a variable is inversely proportional to another variable if their product is a constant. In this case, y is inversely proportional to the square of x. We can write this relationship as y = k/x^2, where k is the constant of variation.

To express y in terms of x, we can rearrange the equation as y = k/(x^2).

To find the positive value of x when y = 25, we can substitute these values into the equation and solve for x. We have 25 = k/(x^2). Rearranging the equation gives us k = 25x^2. Since we want to find the positive value of x, we can take the square root of both sides to get x = sqrt(k/25).

3. In a single growing season at the Smith Family Orchard, the average yield per apple
tree is 150 apples when the number of trees per acre is 100. For each additional tree
over 100, the average yield per tree decreases by 1.
a. What would be the average yield per tree if the number of trees per acre was
doubled? What would be the total yield in that case?
b. How many trees should be planted per acre to maximize the total yield?

Answers

Answer:

a. Average yield per tree will be 50 apples. Total yield in that case will be 10,000 apples per acre.

b. 25 more trees are to be planted per acre to maximize the total yield.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the no. of trees per acre is doubled then it will be equal to,

[tex]100 \times 2[/tex]

= 200

So, the no. of trees per acre is increased by (200 - 100) = 100

hence, the average yield per tree will be,

(150 - 100) = 50 in that case.

Hence, the total yield will be,

[tex]50 \times 200[/tex]

= 10,000 apples per acre

Now , if x trees are planted, the total no. of apples produced per acre will be,

[tex](150 - x) \times (100 + x)[/tex]

= [tex]15000 + 50x - x^{2}[/tex]

= f(x) [say]

So. [tex]\dfrac {df(x)}{dx}[/tex] = f'(x)

= 50 - 2x---(1)

taking f'(x) = 0 , we get,

50 - 2x = 0

⇒ x = 25 --------------(2)

Again,

[tex]\dfrac {d^{2}f(x)}{dx^{2}}[/tex] at x = 25

=  -2 (<0)

So, f(x) attains it's maximum value at x = 25

Hence,

25 more trees are to be planted per acre to maximize the total yield.

The function is a direct variation function with a constant of variation of 1.5.
The function is a direct variation function with a constant of variation of 1.8.
The function is linear but is not a direct variation function.
The function is not a linear function.

Answers

Final answer:

The function through the points (10, 18), (14, 24), and (18, 30) is a direct variation function with a constant of variation of 1.8.

Explanation:

In this case, we have a linear function. We can determine this by checking if the changes between the x-values and the y-values are consistent. For the change in x-values: (14-10 is 4) and (18-14 is also 4), the change is constant. Similarly, check the change in y-values: (24-18 is 6) and (30-24 is also 6), thus the change is constant. Hence, the function is linear.

More so, this function is a direct variation function because it passes through the origin. In direct variation functions, the ratio of y to x remains constant. In this case, the y divided by x at each point [(18/10=1.8), (24/14=1.71), (30/18=1.67)] is approximately 1.8, which is almost constant.

So, the best description of this function is: 'The function is a direct variation function with a constant of variation of 1.8'.

He uses his charm and manipulates rich women to marry him. He emotionally exploits them and gets all their assets transferred to his name. Then, he kills them in cold blood without any regret. Tony is showing the characteristics of a Which of the following statements is CORRECT? Select one: a. Higher sales usually require higher asset levels, and this leads to what we call AFN. However, the AFN will be zero if the firm chooses to retain all of its profits, i.e., to have a zero dividend payout ratio. b. If a firm's assets are growing at a positive rate, but its retained earnings are not increasing, then it would be impossible for the firm's AFN to be negative. c. Dividend policy does not affect the requirement for external funds based on the AFN formula method. d. Inherent in the basic, unmodified AFN formula are these two assumptions: (1) each asset item must grow at the same rate as sales, and (2) spontaneous liability accounts must also grow at the same rate as sales. e. If a firm increases its dividend payout ratio in anticipation of higher earnings, but sales and earnings actually decrease, then the firm's actual AFN must, mathematically, exceed the previously calculated AFN.
