How is Solve this equation
M + A = 68 and M = A + 24

Answers

Answer 1

Hi there! :)

[tex]\large\boxed{A = 22 \text{ , } M = 46 }[/tex]

We can solve by setting both equations equal to the same variable.

We are given that M + A = 68 and M = A + 24. The easiest variable to set both equal to would be M.

Rearrange the first equation by subtracting A from both sides:

M = -A + 68

Now that both equations equal to M, we can set the two equal to each other:

-A + 68 = A + 24

Add A to both sides:

68 = 2A + 24

Subtract 24 from both sides:

44 = 2A

Divide both sides by 2:

A = 22.

Plug this back into an equation to solve for M:

M + 22 = 68

M = 68 - 22

M = 46.

Answers

Answer:

2 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

The points are  (2, 3) and (2, 5)

x1= 2

y1= 3

x2= 2

y2= 5

substitute into the distance between two points formula

d=√((x_2-x_1)²+(y_2-y_1)²)

d=√((2-2)²+(5-3)²)

d=√(2)²)

d=√4

d= 2 units

Hence the length is 2 units

What exactly is the Purple Cow Poem about?

Gelett Burgess, author of The Purple Cow (1866–1951), I've never seen a Purple Cow and I've never hoped to; nevertheless, I can tell you that I'd much prefer see than be one. Death is a definite fact and a guarantee of life. Despite his unflinching devotion, Andrew Hudgins admits that the cow will inevitably die when it becomes feeble since he will slaughter it in stanza three. When she becomes too weak to provide us with fresh cream, we will cut her scarlet throat. Gelett Burgess, an American author, wrote a brief nonsensical poem titled "Purple Cow." In 1895, it was first printed.

here, we have,

In an experimental setup the independent variable is the one which can be changed and manipulated in an experiment the effect of which is observed on the dependent variable (s). The dependent variable is the one which cannot be manipulated in an experiment instead the changes occurring in a dependent variable are because of the manipulation of the independent variable. The dependent variable represents the outcome of the experiment.

According to the given situation, type of feed is the independent variable this is because of the fact that the there were two type of feeds were used one was experimented feed other was regular feed. The effect of both type of feeds has been observed on the weight of the cow which is the dependent variable.

16. Using a standard 52 card deck, what is the probability of pulling the king of hearts if you are
given two attempts (you will pull out one card and then another card)?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The way to do this (I think) is to figure out the probability of not getting said king on either throw.

First Throw: P(no King Hearts) = 51/52

Second Throw: P(no King Hearts) = 50/51

Total probability = 51/52*50/51 = 50/52

Therefore the probability of getting it right is

P(KH) = 1 - 50/52 = 2/52 = 1/26

I have a feeling that this is not correct. If you get a different answer  that looks reasonable, take it.

Question 12
The average mass of Jeremy, Mark and Zack is 28 kg. If Jeremy and Zack's average mass is
29kg. How heavy is Mark?​

Answers

Answer:

Mark's mass is 26 kg.

Step-by-step explanation:

Average mass of Jeremy, Mark and Zack = 28kg

Average mass of Jeremy and Zack = 29 kg

Let,

Jeremy's mass = x

Mark's mass = y

Zack's mass = z

Average of three of them = [tex]\frac{Jeremy's mass + Mark's + Zack's}{3}[/tex]

28 = [tex]\frac{x+y+z}{3}\\[/tex]

[tex]28*3 = x+y+z\\84 = x+y+z[/tex]

x+y+z = 84     Eqn 1

[tex]29 =\frac{x+z}{2}\\58=x+z\\[/tex]

x+z = 58    Eqn 2

Now putting value of x+z from Eqn 2 in Eqn 1

x + z + y = 84

58 + y = 84

y = 84 - 58

y = 26

Thereofore,

Mark's mass is 26 kg.

So there are

n = 4

p(a) = 2^4

P(a) = 16

Jerry is buying hot dogs and hamburgers for his barbeque. Hot dogs cost $9 per pack, while hamburgers cost $6 per pack with taxes

included. Jerry can spend a maximum of $100 on the food.

Using x and y for the number of packs of hot dogs and hamburgers, respectively, what is an inequality that represents this situation?

Answers

Answer: 9x+6y ≤10  

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x= number of packs of hot dogs .

y =number of packs of hamburger.

Total expenditure = (Charge per hot dog) (number of packs of hot dogs ) +(Charge per hamburger) (number of packs of hamburger.)

i.e. Total expenditure =9x+6y  ( in $)

Jerry can spend a maximum of $100 on the food.

So, Total expenditure ≤ $100

i.e. 9x+6y ≤10  [Required inequality]

The inequality that represents this situation:9x+6y ≤10

Suppose you roll a special 24-sided die. What is the probability that the number is a 1 or a 2

Answers

On the roll a special "24-sided" die, the probability that the number is a "1" or a "2" is 1/12.

The probability of rolling a "1" or "2" on a 24-sided die is the sum of the probabilities of rolling a 1 and rolling a 2, because the events are mutually exclusive.

Since each face of the 24 sided-die is equally likely to come up, the probability of rolling any particular-face is 1/24.

So, the probability of rolling a "1" is 1/24, and the probability of rolling a "2" is also 1/24.

The probability of rolling either a 1 or a 2 is the sum of these probabilities:

⇒ P(rolling a 1 or a 2) = P(rolling a 1) + P(rolling a 2),

⇒ 1/24 + 1/24,

⇒ 2/24,

⇒ 1/12.

Therefore, the required probability is 1/12.
