On a team, 7 girls and 6 boys scored a total of 105 points. The difference between the number of points scored by the 7 girls and the number of points scored by the 6 boys is 21. Each girl scored the same number of points and each boy scored the same number of points. (Needs 2 equations) (Write the system)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Each girl scored 9 points

Each boy scored 7 points

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of points each girl scored = a

Let the number of points each boy scored = b

7 girls and 6 boys scored a total of 105 points.

7a + 6b = 105......... Equation 1

The difference between the number of points scored by the 7 girls and the number of points scored by the 6 boys is 21

7a - 6b = 21........... Equation 2

7a + 6b = 105......... Equation 1

7a - 6b = 21........... Equation 2

Subtract Equation 2 from Equation 1

12b = 84

b = 84/12

b = 7

Therefore, each boy scored 7 points

7a + 6b = 105......... Equation 1

b = 7

7a+ 6b = 105

7a + 6(7) = 105

7a + 42 = 105

7a = 105 - 42

7a = 63

a = 63/7

a = 9

Therefore, each girl scored 9 points.

Solve for x and y, please help!

Answers

Answer:

x = 37, y = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + 11 and x + 21 are same- side interior angles and are supplementary, thus

3x + 11 + x + 21 = 189 , that is

4x + 32 = 180 ( subtract 32 from both sides )

4x = 148 ( divide both sides by 4 )

x = 37

--------------------------------

3x + 11 = 3(37) + 11 = 111 + 11 = 122

14y - 4 and 3x + 11 are vertical angles and congruent, thus

14y - 4 = 122 ( add 4 to both sides )

14y = 126 ( divide both sides by 14 )

y = 9

Given m 1= 65, find the measure of each missing angle.Givd your reasoning

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

m∠1 = 65°

Since. ∠1 and ∠2 are the angles of linear pair,

m∠1 + m∠2 = 180°

65° + m∠2 = 180°

m∠2 = 115°

m∠1 = m∠3 [Vertical angles]

m∠3 = 115°

Since, ∠1 and ∠4 is the linear pair of angles,

m∠1 + m∠4 = 180°

65° + m∠4 = 180°

m∠4 = 180 - 65 = 115°

m∠4 + m∠5 = 180° [Consecutive interior angles between the parallel lines]

115° + m∠5 = 180°

m∠5 = 180° - 115° = 65°

m∠5 + m∠6 = 180° [Linear pair of angles]

65° + m∠6 = 180°

m∠6 = 115°

m∠5 = m∠7 [Vertical angles]

m∠5 = m∠7 = 65°

m∠6 = m∠8 [Vertical angles]

m∠6 = m∠8 = 115°

A bag weighing 80 N rests on a horizontal surface. The coefficient of static friction between the bag and the surface is 0.4, and the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.2. What minimum horizontal force must be applied to keep the bag moving at constant velocity once it has started to move?

Answers

Answer:

The minimum horizontal force that must be applied to keep the bag moving at constant velocity once it has started to move is 16 newtons.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the First and Second Newton's Laws, an object has net force of zero when it is at rest or moves at constant velocity. Given that bag rests on a horizontal surface, the equation of equilibrium is:

[tex]\Sigma F = P - f = 0[/tex] (Eq. 1)

Where:

[tex]P[/tex] - Horizontal force exerted on the bag, measured in newtons.

[tex]f[/tex] - Kinetic friction force, mesured in newtons.

From (Eq. 1), we get that horizontal force is:

[tex]P = f[/tex]

On the case of a horizontal surface, normal force exerted from ground on the bag and kinetic friction force is:

[tex]f = \mu_{k}\cdot W[/tex] (Eq. 2)

Where:

[tex]\mu_{k}[/tex] - Kinetic coefficient of friction, dimensionless.

[tex]W[/tex] - Weight of the bag, measured in newtons.

Then we eliminate kinetic friction force by equalizing (Eqs. 1, 2):

[tex]P = \mu_{k}\cdot W[/tex]

If we know that [tex]\mu_{k} = 0.2[/tex] and [tex]W = 80\,N[/tex], then the horizontal force that must be applied to is:

[tex]P =0.2\cdot (80\,N)[/tex]

[tex]P = 16\,N[/tex]

The minimum horizontal force that must be applied to keep the bag moving at constant velocity once it has started to move is 16 newtons.

Find the equation of the line.

Y=__x + __

Answers

to find the slope (m), count how many units vertically and horizontally it takes to get from any one point to the other (rise/run)

i’ll use (0,-6) and (-4,-5)
it takes 1 vertical unit and 4 horizontal units to the left to get there, so the slope is 1/-4

to find the y intercept (b), it’s simply the point where the line intercepts the y axis (vertical line). in this case it’s at (0,-6). the y intercept would then be -6

now just plug those into the slope intercept form: y = mx + b

the equation of the line is y = 1/-4x - 6

Answer: y= -1/4x - 6

What is the least common multiple (LCM) of 5 and 20?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

One way to find the least common multiple of two numbers is to first list the prime factors of each number. Then multiply each factor the greatest number of times it occurs in either number. If the same factor occurs more than once in both numbers, you multiply the factor the greatest number of times it occurs.

When you make a list it will look something like this::

5-5,10,15,20

20-20

No. If you organize them into: 2x^3 and 2xy^2, you see they look like they have the same base but they don’t have the same exponents nor the variables.

No it is not because it has an extra letter. That makes them not like terms 2x and 4x would be like terms. But when you add the next letter, it makes them unalike.
