given that 3x-y : x+2y = 2 : 5, Determine the ratio x:y

Help please with working becoz I have scholarship exam tomorrow ​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x : y = 9 : 13

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

3x - y : x + 2y = 2 : 5

Express the ratio in fractional form, that is

[tex]\frac{3x-y}{x+2y}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{2}{5}[/tex] ( cross- multiply )

5(3x - y) = 2(x + 2y) ← distribute parenthesis on both sides )

15x - 5y = 2x + 4y ( subtract 2x from both sides )

13x - 5y = 4y ( add 5y to both sides )

13x = 9y ( divide both sides by 13 )

x = [tex]\frac{9}{13}[/tex] y ( divide both sides by y )

[tex]\frac{x}{y}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{9}{13}[/tex] , that is

x : y = 9 : 13

Jordan is five years older than twice Amanda's age. Their combined age is 38 years.
What is Jordan's age?

Answers

Answer:

  27

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a represent Amanda's age. Then Jordan's age is 2a+5, and the combined ages are ...

  a +(2a+5) = 38

  3a = 33

  a = 11

So, Jordan's age is ...

  2(11) +5 = 27

Steve and Michelle Neely are celebrating their 30th anniversary by having a reception at a local reception hall. They have budgeted $4,000 for their reception. If the reception hall charges a $80 cleanup fee plus $39 per​ person, find the greatest number of people that they may invite and still stay within their budget.

Answers

Answer:

100 people.

Step-by-step explanation:

$4,000 (total budget) - $80 (clean-up fee) = $3,920

$3,920 divided by $39 per person = 100.51

A total of 100 people could be invited for the Neely's to stay within their budget.

The greatest number is 100 people that they may invite and still stay within their budget.

What are Arithmetic operations?

Arithmetic operations can also be specified by subtracting, dividing, and multiplying built-in functions.

We have been given that they have budgeted $4,000 for their reception. If the reception hall charges an $80 cleanup fee plus $39 per​ person.

We have to determine the greatest number of people that they may invite and still stay within their budget.

Here total budget = $4,000

And clean-up fee = $80

Apply the subtraction operation,

⇒ 4,000 - 80

⇒ 3,920

We need 3,920 divided by $39 per person for finding the greatest number of people that they may invite.

⇒ 3,920/39

⇒ 100.51

Therefore, the greatest number is 100 people that they may invite and still stay within their budget.

Perimeter 94 cm and length 39. What’s the width

Answers

Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

Take the length and multiply it by 2. then take your answer and multiply it by the perimeter. Then, take that answer and divide it by 2. Hope this helps :)

Hello.

To find the perimeter of a rectangle, use the formula P = 2(l + w).

Input 39 as l.

94 = 39 + 39 + w + w

Simplify

94 = 78 + 2w

Subtract the two known numbers

94 - 78 = 16

16 = 2w

So that means w = 8.

The width is 8.

Solve for a.

Answers

Answer:

a=12

Step-by-step explanation:

A recipe that makes 18 cookies calls for 3/4cup of sugar how much sugar is needed to make 2 dozen cookies using this recipe

Answers

Answer:

Use 1 cup sugar to make 2 dozen (24) cookies.

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that 1 dozen = 12 pieces

Write and solve an equation of ratios:  # of cookies on one side and # of cups of sugar on the other side:

  18 cookies         (3/4) cup sugar

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

 24 cookies                      x

Cross-multiplying results in:

18x = 18, so that x must be 1.

The map needs to be reproduced at a different scale so that it has an area of 6 square inches and can fit in a brochure. At what scale should the map be reproduced so that it fits on the brochure? 1 inch to___ miles​

Answers

Answer:

The actual area 21600 miles²

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets explain how to solve the problem

- A drawing that shows a real object with accurate sizes reduced or

enlarged by a certain amount called the scale

- Drawing scale is a ratio between the drawing length and the

actual length

- To find the actual dimensions from the drawing dimensions use the

 scale drawing

* Lets solve the problem

- A map of a rectangular park has a length of 4 inches and a width

of 6 inches

∴ The drawing dimensions are:

# length = 4 inches

# width = 6 inches

- The scale of the map is 1 inch foe every 30 miles

∴ The scale drawing is 1 : 30

- To find the actual area find the actual dimensions

∵ The scale drawing is 1 : 30

∵ The length = 4 inches and the width = 6 inches

- By using cross multiplication

∴  1        :        30

  4       :  actual length

  6       :  actual width

∴ Actual length = (4 × 30)/1 = 120

∴ Actual length = 120 miles

∴ Actual width = (6 × 30)/1 = 180

∴ Actual Width = 180 miles

∴ The actual dimensions are 120 miles and 180 miles

∵ The area of any rectangle = length × width

∴ The actual area = 120 × 180 = 21600

∴ The actual area 21600 miles²

Part (a)

Answer:   -2

-----------

Explanation:

Draw a vertical line through -2 on the x axis. This vertical line will cross the blue parabola at some point P. From point P, draw a horizontal line to the y axis. You should arrive at y = -2. Figure 1, in the attached diagram below, shows this process.

================================================

Part (b)

Answers:    x = -3 or x = 1

-----------

Explanation:

Draw a horizontal line through y = 1 on the y axis. This is because y = f(x).

This horizontal line crosses the parabola at two places. Drop a vertical line straight down to the x axis to note the x values that make f(x) = 1 true.

You should find the solutions to be x = -3 and x = 1

Answers

Answer:

            None of given                  x = -1²/₇

Step-by-step explanation:

-(-10x - 8) = -(4x + 10)

  10x + 8 = -4x - 10

      -8            -8

     10x  =  -4x - 18

      +4x     +4x

     14x = -18

      ÷14    ÷14

      x = -¹⁸/₁₄ = -⁹/₇ = -1²/₇

I think you meant -(10x-8)=-(4x+10)

Then:

-(10x - 8) = -(4x + 10)

  -10x + 8 = -4x - 10

      -8            -8

     -10x  =  -4x - 18
