Kelly and Brandon have a combined age of 32.
They have an age difference of 6 (Kelly is older).
Write a system of equations to find out how old Kelly is
and how old Brandon is.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Kelly is 19; Brandon is 13

Step-by-step explanation:

k + b = 32.  Also:  k = b + 6.

Substituting b + 6 for k in the first equation, we get b + 6 + b = 32, or

2b = 26.  Then b must be 13, and k must be 13 + 6, or 19.

Kelly is 19; Brandon is 13.

Answer 2

Answer:

Brandon is 13, Kelly is 19.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's set up our equations.

Kelly and Brandon have a combined age of 32.

K + B = 32

They have an age difference of 6. Kelly is older.

K - B = 6

Let's shift the equation around a little.

K - B = 6

Add B to both sides.

K = B + 6

Now let's plug K into our first equation.

K + B = 32

(B + 6) + B = 32

Combine like terms.

2B + 6 = 32

2B = 26

Divide both sides by 2.

B = 13

Now that we know Brandon is 13, we can find Kelly's age.

K + B = 32

K + 13 = 32

K = 19

Kelly is 19.

Hope this helps!

Step-by-step explanation:

Here only Fungi is an example of decomposer.

Rabbits and lions are examples of consumers.

Trees are an example of producers.

The following list defines and provides examples of the feeding (trophic) levels that comprise food webs:

Producer: organism on the food chain that can produce its own energy and nutrients. Examples: grasses, Jackalberry tree, Acacia tree

Primary consumer/herbivore: organism that eats mainly plants. Examples: cows, impalas, warthogs, zebras

Secondary consumer/carnivore: organism that eats meat. Examples: leopard, lion

Omnivore: organism that eats a variety of organisms, including plants, animals, and fungi. Examples: humans, aardvarks

Decomposer/detritivores: organisms that break down dead plant and animal material and waste and release it as energy and nutrients in the ecosystem. Examples: bacteria, fungi, termites

Scavenger: animal that eats dead or rotting animal flesh. Examples: vultures, hyenas

Insectivore: organism that mostly eats insects. Example: Red-billed oxpecker

Answer:

C. Fungi

B. Lions

Step-by-step explanation:

C. fungi are called decomposers because they break down the dead and decaying organic matter into simpler substances such as carbon dioxide, water, simple sugars, and mineral salts and provide the nutrients back to the soil

B. A decomposer is a living thing that gets energy by breaking down dead plants and animals, lions eat other animals to get energy.

Find the circumference of the semi circle 7cm

Answers

Given:

A semicircle with radius 7 cm.

To find:

The circumference of the given semi circle.

Solution:

We know that,

Circumference of a semi circle = Half of circumference of the circle + Diameter

                                                    [tex]=\dfrac{1}{2}(2\pi r+d[/tex]

                                                    [tex]=\pi r+2r[/tex]

Putting [tex]\pi=\dfrac{22}{7},r=7[/tex], we get

Circumference of the semi circle [tex]=\dfrac{22}{7}(7)+2(7)[/tex]

                                                        [tex]=22+14[/tex]

                                                        [tex]=36[/tex]

Therefore, the circumference of the given semi circle 36 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since ABC is a triangle,

Angle A + Angle B + Angle C = 180 (Sum of angles in a triangle)

given Angle A = 3x + 1

Angle B = 4x - 17

Angle C = 5x - 20

[tex]3x + 1 + (4x - 17) + (5x - 20) = 180 \\ 3x + 4x + 5x + 1 - 17 - 20 = 180 \\ 12x - 36 = 180 \\ 12x = 180 + 36 \\ 12x = 216 \\ x = 216 \div 12 \\ = 18[/tex]

Now substitute x into all 3 angles.

A = 3(18) + 1 = 54 + 1 = 55 degrees

B = 4(18) - 17 = 72 - 17 = 55 degrees

C = 5(18) - 20 = 90 - 20 = 70 degrees

Since Angle A = Angle B but not equal to Angle C,

Triangle ABC is a isosceles triangle as 2 angles must be the same for it to be a isosceles triangle.

answer anybody?? i can't do math like at all lol

Answers

Essentially, what we're looking at here are two alternate interior angles.

Wait. What? Alternate interior angles?

It sounds like some super fancy math jargon, but it's a fairly simple concept that I'll try my best to explain. First, let's look at lines L and M as two parallel lines, meaning that these two are lines with equal slopes, and will never intersect. See that line that goes in between the parallel lines L and M? That's called a transversal. It's basically a line that goes through two parallel lines.

Now we know that there's a transversal going through the parallel lines. So what? Well, there's a couple of special attributes to transversals. See the two angles, 7x-7 and 4x+14? As you can tell, these two angles alternate in the interior space between the transversal and the parallel lines.

Alternate interior angles are equal. There's a way to prove that they're equal, but I won't bore you with the specifics since that's not what the question's asking.

If the angles need to be equal for lines L and M to be parallel, we can make an equation that'll solve for x:

7x - 7 = 4x + 14

Subtract 4x from both sides:

7x - 4 x - 7 = 4x - 4x + 14

3x - 7 = 14

Add 7 to both sides:

3x - 7 + 7 = 14 + 7

3x = 21

Divide both sides by 3 to completely isolate x:

[tex]\frac{3x}{3}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{21}{3}[/tex]

x = 7

And that's our answer! If you need me to explain anything any further, just ask!

A man flies a kite and lets out 100 feet of string. The angle of elevation of the string is 52°. How far away is the man from the spot directly under the kite?

Answers

Answer:

61.57 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Look at the picture. You need to find the base value.

so we can sue the cosine formula here.

cos x° = adjacent / hypotaneous

cos 52 ° = adj / 100

adjacent = 100 cos 52°

               =61.57 ft

Answer:

the man is 61.6 ft away from the spot directly under the kite.

Step-by-step explanation:

in order to find the bottom length which is b we need to First find the height of this right angle triangle.

to find the height we need to use sin:

sin 52° = X/100

sin 52° * 100 = h

h= 78.8 ft

next we can find b which is the base of the triangle.

a^2+b^2=c^2

100^2 +b^2 = 78.8^2

100^2 -78.8^2 = b^2

b^2= 3790.56

b= 3790.56

b= 61.6 ft

therefore the man is 61.6 ft away from the spot directly under the kite.

5x + 2y = 18
-5x + 5y = 45

Answers

Answer:

the answer for this problem is (x,y)=(0,9)

Answer:

y = 9

x = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

5x + 2y = 18

-5x + 5y = 45 add two equations up

5x + 2y -5x + 5y = 18 + 45 add like terms (note that, 5x will eliminate -5x)

7y = 63 divide both sides by 7

y = 9 to find the value of x we can use this information

5x + 2y = 18 replace y with 9

5x + 2*9 = 18

5x + 18 = 18 subtract 18 from both sides

5x = 0 and x = 0

and C invested GH¢600. C received a
profit of GH¢24.70, find
i) the total profit.
ii) the profits made by A and B.​

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

A invested 450

B invested 150

C invested 600

total investment was 1200

share of A is 450/1200 = .375

share of B is 150/1200 = .125

share of C is 600/1200 = .5

C received a profit of 24.70.

that would be .5 of the total profit.

if we let x = total profit, we get .5 * x = 24.70

solve for x to get x = 24.70 / .5 = 49.40

A share of total profit = .375 * 49.4 = 18.525

B share of total profit = .125 * 49.4 = 6.175

C share of total profit .5 * 49.4 = 24.7

total profit = 49.4 as we had calculated earlier.
