the ratio of two numbers is 3:7. the product of these 2 numbers is 189. what is the smaller of these numbers?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

9.

Step-by-step explanation:

I am assuming that the two numbers are positive.

Let the numbers be 3x and 7x.

Then 3x * 7x = 19

21x^2 = 189

x^2 = 9

x = 3.

So the smaller of these numbers is 3*3 = 9.

Answer 2

Answer:

9 if that does not work try - 21

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the two numbers be x and y

x/y = 3/7               which means that x is the smaller number.

x*y = 189

Cross multiply the top equation

7x = 3y      

Divide by 7

x = 3/7 ^ y

x*y = 189

(3/7  y) * y = 189

Multiply by 7

3y^2 = 189*7

3y^2 = 1323

Divide by 3

y^2 = 441

Take the square root of both sides

y = 21

The question is a bit ambiguous. You could use - 9 and - 21 in which case the smallest number is -21. I think they intend 9 however.

x = 3/7 * 21

x = 3*3

x = 9

Check

x*y = 9 * 21 = 189

Suppose a charity event serves a prix fixe dinner that consists of one from each category: (1) soup or salad (not both), (2) appetizer, (3) entree, (4) dessert, and (5) beverage. The restaurant is offering five kinds of soup, three kinds of salad, four kinds of appetizers, six entrees, five desserts, and four beverages. How many different prix fixe dinners are possible

Answers

Answer:

3840

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the fundamental counting principle

The restaurant is offering five kinds of soup, three kinds of salad, four kinds of appetizers, six entrees, five desserts, and four beverages.

There are 5 independent events happening (5 prixe dinners)

(1) soup or salad (not both)

We have five kinds of soup, three kinds of salad

soup or salad (not both), = 5 + 3

= 8

(2) appetizer = 4

(3) entrees = 6

(4) dessert = 5

(5) Beverage = 4

Hence,

8 × 4 × 6 × 5 × 4

= 3840

The number of different prix fixe dinners are possible is 3840

We need to pull out 5 to make the rest easier to factor.

[tex]5(x^{4} -6x^{2} -27)[/tex]

Now we can factor.

Consider all combinations of how to get 27.

1 x 27

3 x 9

And that's it before you end up just switching the place i.e. 9 x 3 and 27 x 1

This makes it easy to see that 3 and 9 are our best choice because 9 - 3 is 6 which is our middle term in the equation.

So now we have:

[tex]5(x^{2} -9)(x^{2} +3)[/tex]

We can break down [tex]x^{2} -9[/tex] even further because it's a perfect square.

(x - 3)(x + 3)

Our final factor is

5(x - 3)(x + 3)[tex](x^{2} +3)[/tex]

A construction worker estimates that a kitchen remodel will take 1 person 200 hours. If 5 people work on the job for 8 hours a day, how many days will it take for them to complete the job?

Answers

Answer:

5 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply 8 hours by 5 people to get a total of an equivalent of 40 hours of work per day. 200/40 is equal to 5, so it would take them 5 days

Answer:

It will take them five days.

Step-by-step explanation:

So what I did was I multiplied 5 and 8 because there were 5 people and I'm taking it that each person worked 8 hours a day. So after multiplying that, I got 40. I then divided 40 by 200 and I got 5.

The admission fee at an amusement park is $1.50 for children and $4 for adults. On a certain day, 332
people entered the park, and the admission fees collected totaled 898.00 dollars. How many children and
how many adults were admitted?

Answers

Answer:

172 kids and 160 adults

Step-by-step explanation:

We can create two equations with the information given.

1.5x + 4y = 898

x + y = 332

We can then bring the x in the second equation over to the other side.

y = 332 - x

We can now plug this equation into the one before.

1.5x + 4(332 - x) = 898

We now do the distributive property on the equation and result with

1.5x + 1328 - 4x = 898

Then we can combine like terms and add 1.5x and -4x together and bring 1328 over by subtracting it from 898.

-2.5x = -430

-430 / 2.5x = 172

x = 172

x is defining how many children when to the park.

Now we just need to figure out y by subtracting it from the total amount of people (aka plugging it into the second equation)

y = 332 - 172

y= 160

We end up with

x = 172

y = 160

A school bus requires 40 liters of fuel per week. If your school district runs 5,000 school buses, how many liters of fuel will the buses consume in 52 weeks? A. 15 million liters B. 10 million liters C. 10.4 million liters D. 200 million liters

Answers

Answer:

C. 10.4 million liters.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. First, you want to create an equation to help you solve this.  You know that there are 5,000 school buses and they use 40 liters of fuel per week.  So, you know that 5,000 · 40x would be the amount of fuel for x weeks (where x is the number of weeks).

2. To figure out how many liters would be used in 52 weeks, simply put 52 in for x.  So, the expression is 5,000·40(52).

3.  Multiply 40(52) to get 2,080.  Your expression now looks like this: 5,000·2,080

4. Multiply 5,000(2,080) to get your answer of 10,400,000 liters.

In the figure shown, suppose m angle ABC=n and m angle ABD=2(m angle DBC). The angle bisector of angle DBC is BE. What is m angle EBC

Answers

Answer:

n/6

Step-by-step explanation:

If angle bisector of angle DBC is BE. What is m angle EBC, then <DBE = <EBC

Since <ABC = <ABD+<DBC

n = 2<DBC+<DBC

n = 3<DBC

<DBC = n/3

Since <DBC = 2EBC

n/3 = 2<EBC

n/6 = <EBC

Hence <EBC = n/6

All figures in Group 1 appear to have at

least one square face

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us examine each statement and see whether they are true or not.

The first statement is not true. Only one of the figures (square pyramid) has at least one triangular face. It has 4 triangular faces, actually.

The second statement is not true. Only one of the figures is a rectangular prism. The remaining two are triangular pyramid and triangular prism respectively.

The third statement is not true also. Only 1 figure is a triangular prism.

The fourth statement is correct. In group 1, all the figures has at least one square face.
