Step-by-step explanation:
x-the initial number of coconuts
x=3y+1
2y=3z+1
2z=3×7+1=>z=11=>y=17=>x=52
The number of coconuts in originally was 25.
What is division?Division is breaking a number up into an equal number of parts.
Given that, there are three sailors and a band of monkeys on an island, and they are distributing the coconuts,
Let x be the number of coconuts to start with. We are given that it is a whole number.
After Sailor 1 gives one to the monkey and takes a third. Then the number of coconuts remaining is (x-1) - (x-1) (1/3) = 2(x-1)/3.
Sailor 2 gives 1 coconut to the monkey, so there are 2(x-1)/3 - 1 = (2x-5)/3. He takes a third and leaves [(2x-5)/3](2/3) = (4x-10)/9.
Sailor 3 gives 1 to the monkey, so now
(4x-10)/9 -1 = (4x-19)/9 are left.
He takes a third, leaving behind [(4x-19)/9](2/3) = (8x-38)/27
This is the number of coconuts in the pile that the sailors found next morning.
Let (8x-38)/27 = y, say, which gives 8x = 27y + 38.
We are given that it is less than 10, and it is a whole number divisible by 3 (because each sailor took a third and nothing was left).
Therefore, possible values for this number are 0, 3, 6 and 9. But we are also given that the initial pile had a whole number of coconuts. Hence, the problem reduces to finding that y from which 8x = 27y + 38, gives an x as a whole number.
You will see that the only y that gives x as a whole number is y = 6
Then 8x = 200, so x = 25
Hence, the number of coconuts were 25.

Determine the volume of the three-dimensional figure.
Answer:
12 cm^3
Step-by-step explanation:
multiply all three numbers
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply the three measurements together to find the volume using either paper and pencil or a calculator. This is the equation: Volume = length x width x height. For example, if the measurements of your prism are 6 inches, 5 inches and 4 inches, the equation would look like this: Volume = 6 x 5 x 4.
2. The surface area of a three-dimensional figure is the sum of the area measures for each of the
figure's faces. Find the surface area of the cube shown below.

Part II: Find the area of one face of the cube shown above. Show your work. (2 points)
Part III: Find the surface area of the cube shown above. Show your work. (2 points)

All cubes have six faces. Likewise, the cube shown above also has 6 faces.
[tex]\color{plum}\tt \: Answer \: \: part \: \: 2 :[/tex]
Length of side of one face of cube = 3 inches
Area of one face :
= Side × Side
= 3 × 3
= 9 inch²
Therefore, the area of one face of this cube = 9 inch²
[tex]\color{plum}\tt \: Answer \: \: part \: \: 3 :[/tex]
Area of cube = sum of the area of all faces
Then, the area of this cube :
[tex] = 9 + 9 + 9 + 9 + 9 + 9[/tex]
[tex] = 9 \times 6[/tex]
[tex] = 54 \: \: {inches}^{2} [/tex]

z varies jointly as x and y. z=60 when x=5 and y=6. find z when x = 7 and y=3
Answer:
z = 42
Step-by-step explanation:
The question can be answered in 2 steps as follows:
Step 1: Calculation of the constant of the variation
The equation for the joint variation can be given as follows:
z = cxy ................... (1)
Where;
z = 60
c = constant = ?
x = 5
y = 6
Substituting the values into equation (1) and solve c, we have:
60 = c * 5 * 6
60 = c * 30
c = 60 / 30
c = 2
Step 2: find z when x = 7 and y = 3
Since from Step 1 c = 2, we now use equation (1) and substitute the values into it to find z as follows:
z = 2 * 7 * 3
z = 42

Can somebody help with this
Answer:
what is your question?
Well, if I can remember correctly-
1.) (c^2 +4c) I believe you would rewrite in factored form to get a solution of c(c + 4)
2.) (4w^2 -4) I think you would the 4w^2 first, getting 16w. Then the solution would be 16w - 4 (since you cannot combine these terms together)
3.) (z^2 - 2z) You would do the same with this as you would with question 1, which would give you a solution of z(z + 2)
43. A bookstore sells 24 paperbacks, 6 hardcovers, 38 magazines, and
5 calendars. What is the ratio of magazines sold to paperbacks sold?
c. 12
A. 24:38
B. 19 to 31
D. 12:24
Answer:12
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
The ratio of magazines sold to paperbacks sold is 19:12 or 19/12.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Number of paperbacks sold = 24
Number of hardcovers sold = 6
Number of magazines sold = 38
Number of calendars sold = 5
Ratio of magazines sold to paperbacks sold,
Magazines : Paperbacks
38 : 24
19 : 12
Hence,
The ratio of magazines sold to paperbacks sold is 19:12 or 19/12.

Answer:
24 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Similar to the question you asked earlier, this question also has 3 small rectangles and we can combine it to make it a one big rectangle. The equation for the perimeter is this:
2W + 2L = P
We know W and P (the width of the small rectangles times 3), thus plugging in those values would give us:
2(30*3) + 2L = 324
180 + 2L = 324
2L = 144
L = 72
We need to divide this number by 3 to get the length of the small rectangle, which would give us 72/3 or 24.

Y=-3x+5 and y=4x-2
9514 1404 393
Answer:
(x, y) = (1, 2)
Step-by-step explanation:
You can solve this by subtracting the first equation from the second.
(y) - (y) = (4x -2) -(-3x +5)
0 = 7x -7 . . . . . .simplify
0 = x -1 . . . . . . . divide by 7
1 = x . . . . . . . . . .add 1
Use the first equation to find y:
y = -3(1) +5
y = 2
The solution is (x, y) = (1, 2).

Find the sales tax and cost of a PS5 that costs $499. The tax rate is 7.25%. Round your answer to
the nearest cent.
a. What is the sales tax?
b. What is the total cost?
Step-by-step explanation:
First make an equation.
y=0.0725(499)
This equation would solve for the sales tax.
y=36.1775 or 36.18 because you have to round it l.
To find the total cost, you would do 499+36.18= $537.18
