The sum of one third of a number and 2 1/3 is 9 find number

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

  20

Step-by-step explanation:

The given relation can be written as the 2-step linear equation ...

  (1/3)n +2 1/3 = 9

  n +7 = 27 . . . . . . . . . step 1: multipy by 3 (makes the coefficient = 1)

  n = 20 . . . . . . . . . . . step 2: subtract 7 (separates variable from constant)

The number is 20.

_____

Additional comment

Usually it is convenient to do the two steps in the opposite order: get the variable term by itself, then make its coefficient 1. Here, we chose the order we did because it eliminated fractions from the problem, which is often a step you'd like to do first.

Select the correct answer from each drop-down menu. jordan is tracking a recent online purchase. the shipping costs state that the item will be shipped in a 24-inch long box with a volume of 2,880 cubic inches. the width of the box is seven inches less than the height. the volume of a rectangular prism is found using the formula v = lwh, where l is the length, w is the width, and h is the height. complete the equation that models the volume of the box in terms of its height, x, in inches. x2 - x = is it possible for the height of the box to be 15 inches?

Answers

Answer:

A. We are given that the length of the box is equal to 24 as indicted in the "24-inch long". From the given, it is also stated that the width of the box is 7 inches less than the height. If the height of the box is x, the width is then x - 7. The equation that would let us solve the problem is,

                           2880 = 24(x)(x - 7)

Simplifying,

                           2880 = 24x² - 168x

B. The value of x from the equation is 15. Thus, the answer is YES.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The equation that models the volume of the box in terms of its height will be 2880 = 24x² - 168x.

b)Yes, it is possible for the height of the box to be 15 inches

What is volume?

Volume is the three-dimensional space bounded by a boundary or inhabited by an item.

The given data in the problem is;

L is the length of the box= 24-inch

V is the volume = 2,880 cubic inches.W

W is the width of the box

h is the height

Let the side of the box is x then volume V is found as;

V=LWh

2880 = 24(x)(x - 7)

2880 = 24x² - 168x

Hence the equation that models the volume of the box in terms of its height will be 2880 = 24x² - 168x.

b)Yes, it is possible for the height of the  box to be 15 inches

The value of x obtained from the equation is 15.

Hence yes, it is possible for the height of the  box to be 15 inches

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

substitute the coordinates of the point into both equations and compare values on both sides. If both equations are true then the point is a solution.

2(2) - 4(- 1) = 4 + 4 = 8 ← true

- 3(2) + 6 = - 6 + 6 = 0 ≠ - 1

Determine whether the following sequence is geometric. If so, find the common ratio,
1.-3.9. - 27,...

Answers

Answer:

Yes, the sequence is geometric

common ratio (r) = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

[tex]a_1=1[/tex][tex]a_2=-3[/tex][tex]a_3=9[/tex][tex]a_4=-27[/tex]

If a sequence is geometric, common ratio [tex]r[/tex]:

[tex]r=\dfrac{a_4}{a_3}=\dfrac{a_3}{a_2}=\dfrac{a_2}{a_1}[/tex]

Substituting the given values:

[tex]\implies \dfrac{a_4}{a_3}=\dfrac{-27}{9}=-3[/tex]

[tex]\implies \dfrac{a_3}{a_2}=\dfrac{9}{-3}=-3[/tex]

[tex]\implies \dfrac{a_2}{a_1}=\dfrac{-3}{1}=-3[/tex]

Therefore, as

[tex]\dfrac{a_4}{a_3}=\dfrac{a_3}{a_2}=\dfrac{a_2}{a_1}=-3[/tex]

the sequence is geometric with common ratio of -3

Answer:

The given ratios are proportional

Step-by-step explanation:

To consider the fractions as "proportional", they must be equivalent. Let us assume that the fractions are equivalent. Then, we get;

[tex]\implies \dfrac{10}{24} = \dfrac{5}{12}[/tex]

When using cross multiplication, we get;

[tex]\implies \dfrac{10}{24} = \dfrac{5}{12}[/tex]

[tex]\implies 10 \times 12 = 24 \times 5[/tex]

When simplified, we get;

[tex]\implies 10 \times 12 = 24 \times 5[/tex]

[tex]\implies 120 = 120 \ \checkmark[/tex]

Therefore, the relationship is proportional.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Luke bought a video game system that costs $99.95 and games that cost $19.99 each.

Bella bought a game system that costs $125.79 and games that cost $15.99 each.

Luke spent no more than what Bella spent.

To Find:

Which inequality represents this situation?

Solve:

Let Luke bought = x.

Let Bella bought = y.

How much Luke paid = $99.95 + $19.99 × x = $99.95 + $19.99x

How much Bella paid = $125.79 + $15.99 × y = $125.79 + $15.99y

Luke paid is equal or lesser than how much Bella paid, then

99.95 + 19.99x ≤ 125.79 + 15.99y

A giraffe runs at a rate of 32 miles per hour. Which equation models the situation?

h = time spent running, in hours
d = distance run in miles
32h = d
32d = h
h = 32 + d
h = 32 – d

Answers

*Whenever a questions asks about “rate”, time should always be the denominator*
Think also about the speed = distance / time equation
In this case rate basically means speed
Answer: 32h = d because when you rearrange you will get d/h = 32 where distance over hours = speed which in this case is 32 mph

The population of the town of fort mill was 10,811 in 2010. what is the population in 2016 if it grew 7.5% per year

Answers

Answer:

16,688 people lived in that town in 2016.

Step-by-step explanation:

10,811 + 7.5% = 11,621.8 = 11,622 (2011)

11,622 + 7.5% = 12,493.6 = 12,494 (2012)

12,494 + 7.5% = 13,431.05 = 13,432 (2013)

13,432 + 7.5% = 14,439.4 = 14,440 (2014)

14,440 + 7.5% = 15,523 (2015)

15,523 + 7.5% = 16,687.225 = 16,688 (2016)
