the sum of the real numbers x and y is 15. their difference is 3. what is the value of xy?

Answers

Answer 1
x+y=15,
x-y=3
the easiest way is the find out x and y first: 
add up the two equations: 2x=18, x=9
plug x=9 in either equation, you get y=6
so xy=6*9=54
Another way to do it:

(x+y)²=15²=225  =>x²+2xy+y²=225
(x-y)²=3²=9         =>x²-2xy+y²=9
subtract one equation from the other: 4xy=225-9=216, xy=54
Answer 2

The value of xy is such that the sum of the real numbers x and y is 15 and their difference is 3 is 54.

What is a number system?

The number system is a way to represent or express numbers.

A decimal number is a very common number that we use frequently.

Since the decimal number system employs ten digits from 0 to 9, it has a base of 10.

Any of the multiple sets of symbols and the guidelines for utilizing them to represent numbers are included in the Number System.

Given that sum of the x and y is 15

So,

x + y = 15

And difference

x - y = 3

By adding both equations,

2x = 18

x = 9 and y = 6

So their product 9 × 6 = 54.

Hence "The value of xy is such that the sum of the real numbers x and y is 15 and their difference is 3 is 54".

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use similar triangles and proportions to solve this problem.  Put the side of the small triangle over the same side of the larger triangle.

x               42

---------- = ----------

x+10           42+15

Simplify

x               42

---------- = ----------

x+10           57

Using cross products

57x = 42 (x+10)

Distribute

57x = 42x+420

Subtract 42x from each side

57x-42x = 42x-42x +420

15x = 420

Divide each side by 15

15x/15 = 420/15

x=28

Answer: The value of x is 28 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Determine the equation for the parabola graphed below.

Answers

The generic equation of a parabola is:
 f (x) = ax ^ 2 + bx + c
 To verify the equation of the parabola you need three points:
 f (x) = ax ^ 2 + bx + c
 We choose the points:
 (x, y) = (- 1,7)
 7 = a (-1) ^ 2 + b (-1) + c
 7 = a - b + c
 (x, y) = (0,5)
 5 = a (0) ^ 2 + b (0) + c
 5 = c
 (x, y) = (- 2,5)
 5 = a (-2) ^ 2 + b (-2) + c
 5 = 4a - 2b + c
 We solve:
 c = 5
 5 = 4a - 2b + 5
 7 = a - b + 5
 Rewriting
 b = 2a
 a-b = 2
 Substituting:
 a-2a = 2
 a = -2
 b = -4
 The equation of the parabola is:
 f (x) = - 2x ^ 2 -4x + 5

A car traveled 48.36 miles in one hour. What was it's average speed per minute?

Answers

Answer:

0.806 miles per minute

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 60 minutes in an hour, so replace the unit "hour" by 60 minutes and recompute.

... 48.36 mi/h = 48.36 mi/(60 min) = (48.36/60) mi/min = 0.806 mi/min

Final answer:

The car's average speed was calculated by dividing the total distance of 48.36 miles by the total time of 60 minutes, resulting in an average speed of 0.806 miles per minute.

Explanation:

To compute the car's average speed per minute, we need to divide the total distance covered by the total time in minutes. This is because speed is defined as the rate at which an object covers distance. The distance travelled by the car is 48.36 miles (the total distance), and the time is 1 hour. To transform this hour into minutes, we multiply by 60, as there are 60 minutes in an hour. So,

1 hour = 60 minutes

Therefore, to find the average speed, we take the total distance and divide by the total time in minutes. Using this, we find:

Average speed = Total distance / Total time

Average speed = 48.36 miles / 60 minutes = 0.806 miles per minute.

Therefore, the car's average speed was approximately 0.806 miles per minute.

Rachel has 60 scones. She sells them to Robbie, Cameron, Louis, Tom and Charlie in that order. Each customer buys more scones than the last and the increase is the same number in each case. Robbie and Cameron’s combined total number of scones is three sevenths of the total of Louis, Tom and Charlie. How many scones does each boy buy?

Answers

Answer:

Robbie: 6
Cameron: 9
Louis: 12
Tom: 15
Charlie: 18

Explanation:


1) Assume that Rachel sold all the cones: 60

2) Call x the amount that Robbie bought and d the constant increase on the purchse.

3) That means that the number of cones bought by each one is:

Robbie:            x
Cameron:         x + d
Louis:               x + d + d = x + 2d
Tom:                 x + 2d + d = x + 3d
Charlie             x + 3d + d = x + 4d

The sum of that is: x + (x + d) + (x + 2d) + (x + 3d) + (x + 4d) = 5x + 10d = 60


5x + 10d  = 60 may be simplified by dividing each side by 5 =>  x + 2d = 12.

Equation (1) x + 2d = 12

4) Robbie and Cameron’s combined total number of scones is three sevenths of the total of Louis, Tom and Charlie

=> x + (x + d) = [3/7] [ (x + 2d) + (x + 3d) + (x + 4d) ]

=> 2x + d = [3/7] (3x + 9d)

=> 7(2x + d) = 3 (3x + 9d)

=> 14x + 7d = 9x + 27d

=> 14x - 9x = 27d - 7d

=> 5x = 10d

=> x = 2d

Equation (2) x = 2d

5) Now you just have to solve this simple system of equations:

x + 2d = 12

x = 2d

Subitituing x for 2d in the first equation: x + x = 12 => 2x = 12 => x = 6

Now replace x = 6 in any  of the two equations and you get the value of d.

For example, from x = 2d => d = x  / 2 = 6 /2 = 3.

6) Finally, calcualte the number of cones of each:

                                                                           Result
Robbie:            x                                                6
Cameron:         x + d                                          6 + 3 = 9
Louis:               x + d + d = x + 2d                      9 + 3 = 12
Tom:                 x + 2d + d = x + 3d                   12 + 3 = 15
Charlie             x + 3d + d = x + 4d                    15 + 3 = 18
                                                                -----------------------------------------
Total                                                                   6 + 9 + 12 + 15 + 18 = 60

 For x = -5 we have:
 (2 (-5) +16) / ((- 5) +5)
 (-10 + 16) / (- 5 + 5) = 6/0 (undefined)
 Answer:
 x = -5
 b. -5

Answer:

d. -8

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that you cannot possibly divide anything by 0, so if the denominator gives as a result 0, you are dealing with an impossibility, in order for a franction to give as a result 0, the numerator has to be 0, so we just need to equalize the numerator to 0 and solve for x to know how can we make the rational expression 0:

2x+16=0

2x=-16

x=-16/2

x=-8

So in order to make the expression equal to 0 x needs to be equal to -8,

In a probability experiment, Craig rolled a six-sided die 57 times. The die landed on a number greater than three 36 times. What is the ratio of rolls greater than three to rolls less than or equal to three?

Answers

57-36=21 times (rolled less than 3)
36:21 →12:7

The ratio of rolls greater than three to rolls less than or equal to three is 36:21, which simplifies to 12:7 after dividing both terms by the greatest common divisor of 3.

Since Craig rolled the die 57 times, and it landed on a number greater than three 36 times, then it landed on a number less than or equal to three the remaining number of times. Subtracting the number of greater rolls from the total rolls:

Total rolls: 57

Rolls greater than three: 36

Rolls less than or equal to three = 57 - 36 = 21

Now, we can establish the ratio of rolls greater than three to rolls less or equal to three:

Ratio = Rolls greater than three : Rolls less than or equal to three = 36 : 21

And if needed, we can simplify this ratio by dividing both sides by their greatest common divisor, which is 3:

Simplified Ratio = 12 : 7

1. Solve w=x+y/z for y.

2. Solve the equation above for z.

Answers

Answer:

y = z(w -x)z = y/(w -x)

Step-by-step explanation:

As in any "solve for ..." problem, you reverse (undo) the operations done to the variable of interest. Generally, you do that in reverse order.

1. y is divided by z then the quotient added to x. To solve for y, we subtract x, then multiply by z.

... w - x = y/z . . . . . . . subtract x from the given equation

... z(w -x) = y . . . . . . . multiply by z

___

2. To solve for z, it is more convenient to start with the equation for y that is the result of the first question. We divide that by the coefficient of z.

... z = y/(w -x)

From w=x+y/z, the value of y = z(w - x)

w=x+y/z

This is changing the subject formula. The first thing to do is to subtract x from both sides. This will be:

w - x = x + y/z - x

w - x = y/z

Then, we cross multiply

z(w - x) = y

Therefore, y = z(w - x)

Since y = z(w - x)

Then, to get the value of z goes thus:

z = y/(w - x)

To solve this, we'll use a binomial probability formula: P(X=r) = (nCr) * p^r * (1-p)^(n-r), where:

n is the number of trials (in this case, 12 smartphone users),r is the desired number of successful outcomes,p is the probability of success on a single trial (54%), andnCr is the combination of n items taken r at a time.

You will need to sum up the probabilities for 0, 1, and 2 smartphone users using their phones in meetings or classes to get the total probability for fewer than 3.

One-third of 9 is 3.

Final answer:

The sum of 6 and 3 is 9, and one-third of this sum is 3 when you divide 9 by 3.

Explanation:

In mathematics, a sum is the result of adding two or more numbers or quantities together. It represents the total or aggregate of those quantities. The process of finding this total is called addition.

Thus,

To calculate one-third the sum of the numerals 6 and 3, we first find the sum of 6 and 3, which is 9.

Then, we need to take one-third of 9.

To find one-third of a number, you divide the number by 3.

So one-third of 9 is 9 divided by 3, which equals 3.

Therefore, one-third the sum of 6 and 3 is 3.
