The hardcover version of a book weighs 7 ounces while its paperback version weighs 5 ounces. Forty-five copies of the book weigh a total of 249 ounces. Which value could replace x in the table?

Answers

Answer 1

Solving the system of linear equations, we found that there are 12 hardcover books and 33 paperback books, making the value that could replace 'x' is 12.

The question involves solving a system of linear equations to find the number of hardcover and paperback versions of a book that together weigh 249 ounces. Since the hardcover version weighs 7 ounces and the paperback weighs 5 ounces, we can create two equations based on the given information. If we let x represent the number of hardcover books and y represent the number of paperback books, the equations would be:

x + y = 45 (since there are 45 copies in total)

7x + 5y = 249 (since the total weight is 249 ounces)

Solving this system, we can multiply the first equation by 5, which gives us 5x + 5y = 225, and subtract this from the second equation to find the value of x. This yields 2x = 24, so x = 12. Therefore, there are 12 hardcover books and the rest are paperbacks. To find the number of paperbacks, we substitute x back into the first equation and get 12 + y = 45, which means y = 33. Hence, the number that could replace x in the table is 12.

The graph shows the distance, y, in miles, of a moving motorboat from an island for a certain amount of time, x, in hours.

What is the speed of the motorboat?

A) 225 miles per hour
B) 25 miles per hour
C) 75 miles per hour
D) 50 miles per hour

Answers

D because the total distance traveled is 225-25=200 and that happened in 4 hrs 200/4=50/hr

Answer:

Option D.,50 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph shows the distance covered by motor boat at  = y, ( in miles )

The certain amount of time on = x ( in hours )

The slope of the given line will represent the speed of the motorboat.

The given line passes through two points ( 0, 25 ) and ( 4, 225 )

Therefore, slope of the line = [tex]\frac{y-y'}{x-x'}[/tex]

                                              =  [tex]\frac{225-25}{4-0}[/tex]

                                              =   [tex]\frac{200}{4}[/tex]

                                              = 50

The speed of the motorboat is 50 miles per hour.

Cross multiply:

George is putting trim around his rectangular deck, including the gate. He will need 48 feet of trim to do the entire deck. If the deck is 14 feet long, how wide is the deck?

Answers

You have to subtract 48 minus 14 and you get 34. Then split 34 and you get 17 which is the width.

We need to convert the given information to meaningful mathematical equation.

Statement: "George is putting trim around his rectangular deck, including the gate. He will need 48 feet of trim to do the entire deck.", it means

[tex] Perimeter \; of\; the\; rectangle=48\; feet [/tex]

Assuming ' L ' as length of the rectangle & ' W ' as the width of the rectangle, the perimeter of rectangle is given by the below formula.

[tex] Perimeter \; of\; the\; rectangle\; =\; 2(L+W) [/tex]

We know "the deck is 14 feet long", which means...

[tex] L=14 \; feet [/tex]

Substituting 14 for L and 48 for Perimeter of rectangle in the formula above, we can set up and equation in terms of W.

[tex] 2(L+W)=Perimeter \; of\; the\; rectangle\\ 2(14+W)=48\\ Divide \; 2\; on\; both\; sides, \; we\; get...\\ \\ \frac{2(14+W)}{2}=\frac{48}{2} \\ Simplifying\; fraction\; on\; both\; sides\\ \\ 14+W=24\\ Subtracting\; 14\; on\; both\; sides\\ \\ 14+W-14=24-14\\ Combine\; like\; terms\\ \\ W=10 [/tex]

Conclusion:

The width of the deck is 10 Feet

Jarrod helped his teachers pack textbooks into boxes for the summer. He packed 8 boxes of science textbooks with 16 books per box. He also packed math textbooks with 12 books per box.

If x represents the total number of boxes he packed, which of the following equations can be used to find the total number of books that Jarrod packed into boxes?
A.
y = 128x + 12
B.
y = 12(x - 8) + 128
C.
y = 12x + 128
D.
y = 128(x - 8) + 12

Answers

The correct answer is B. y = 12(x - 8) + 128

Final answer:

The correct equation to represent the total number of books Jarrod packed is B. y = 12(x - 8) + 128, which acknowledges he packed 8 boxes of science books and the remaining boxes were for math books.

Explanation:

Jarrod packed 8 boxes of science textbooks with 16 books per box, which totals to 8 × 16 = 128 books.

For the math textbooks, if x represents the total number of boxes packed, then Jarrod would have packed (x - 8) boxes of math textbooks since he already packed 8 boxes of science textbooks.

Each math textbook box contains 12 books, so the number of math books packed is 12 × (x - 8). The total number of books that Jarrod packed is the sum of both science and math books, which is given by 128 + 12 × (x - 8).

The correct equation that represents this word problem is B. y = 12(x - 8) + 128, where y is the total number of books packed and x is the total number of boxes packed.

Hello,

To solve this problem, you should first draw a picture. Then, you can determine which trig ratio that you will use. In this case, you are dealing with the opposite side from the angle and the hypotenuse.

Therefore, you can use the sin ratio. 

Our equation will be:
sin30 = x/43
0.5 = x/43
21.5 = x

The light pole is 21.5 meters tall.

We just need to count the number of outcomes that have exactly one even number. The total number of outcomes is 36. We see that from the first row, the number of outcomes that qualify are 3: 1-2, 1-4, 1-6 (out of the 6 total outcomes). For the 2nd row, again there are 3: 2-1, 2-3, 2-5. It is obvious by now that for any row, whether the number is even or odd, there are 3 outcomes on that row that correspond to rolling exactly one even number. Hence, there are in total 6*3=18 favorable outcomes.

Solution:

we are given with a dot plot where we can see that the number of visitors.

we have been asked to find the median of the data set.

From the data plot , we can write the data set as below

56,56,56,56,58,58,60,62,62,62,63,65,65,68,68.

Here the data set is already arranged in the ascending order.

Now if the number of data points in the data set is odd then middle number is the median.

If the number of data points  in the data set is even then the sum of middle two divided by 2 gives the median.

Here the number of data points in the data set is odd.

So the median is 8th value from any side.

Hence the median of the given data set is 62.

What value of x would make rq tangent to Circle P at point Q?

Answers

If Q is tangent to circle P, that means that it is perpendicular to the radius at the point of tangency.  This means that ΔPRQ would be a right triangle.  We can use the Pythagorean theorem to solve this.
9² + 12² = (x+9)²
We use x+9 because the unknown segment x would combine with the radius, 9, to give that side of the triangle (the hypotenuse).
81 + 144 = (x+9)(x+9) ---- remember that squared means multiplied by itself
225 = (x+9)(x+9)
Multiply the right hand side:
225 = x² + 9x + 9x + 81
225 = x² + 18x + 81
Subtract 225 from both sides:
225 - 225 = x² + 18x + 81 - 225
0 = x² + 18x - 144
Use the Quadratic Formula to solve:
[tex]x=\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a} \\ \\x=\frac{-18 \pm \sqrt{18^2-4(1)(-144)}}{2(1)} \\ \\x=\frac{-18 \pm \sqrt{324--576}}{2} \\ \\x=\frac{-18 \pm \sqrt{324+576}}{2} = \frac{-18 \pm \sqrt{900}}{2}[/tex]
This gives us
[tex]x=\frac{-18 \pm 30}{2} = \frac{-18+30}{2} \text{ or } \frac{-18-30}{2}[/tex]
Since -18 - 30 = -48, and a negative number doesn't make sense in this situation, we have 
x = (-18+30)/2 = 12/2 = 6.
