Step-by-step explanation:
x = eggs of Ayyub
y = eggs of Bran
z = eggs of Curtis
x + y + z = 48
y = x + 1
z = 1.5y = 1.5(x + 1)
now we are using the second and third equation in the first :
x + (x + 1) + 1.5(x + 1) = 48
x + x + 1 + 1.5x + 1.5 = 48
3.5x + 2.5 = 48
3.5x = 45.5
x = 45.5/3.5 = 13
y = x + 1 = 13 + 1 = 14
z = 1.5(x + 1) = 1.5(13 + 1) = 1.5×14 = 21
for all three friends to have the same number of eggs, we need to split 48 into 3 equal parts : a division.
48/3 = 16
so, everybody should end up with 16 eggs.
therefore Curtis gives away 21-16 = 5 eggs in total (3 to Ayyub, 2 to Bran).
If x = 1 and y = 2 is a solution to the simultaneous equation ax + by = 2 and bx + a^(2)y = 10, find the possible values of a and b.
Answer:
a = - 2, [tex]\frac{9}{4}[/tex] , b = 2, - [tex]\frac{1}{8}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Since x = 1, y = 2 is a solution to the equations , then substitute these values into the 2 equations and solve for a and b
a + 2b = 2 → (1)
b + 2a² = 10 → (2)
In (1) subtract 2b from both sides
a = 2 - 2b → (3)
Substitute a = 2 - 2b into (2)
b + 2(2 - 2b)² = 10 ← expand parenthesis using FOIL
b + 2(4 - 8b + 4b²) = 10 ( simplify left side )
b + 8 - 16b + 8b² = 10 ( subtract 10 from both sides )
8b² - 15b - 2 = 0
Consider the factors of the product of the coefficient of the b² term and the constant term which sum to give the coefficient of the b- term
product = 8 × - 2 = - 16 and sum = - 15
The factors are - 16 and + 1
Use these factors to split the b- term
8b² - 16b + b - 2 = 0 ( factor first/second and third/fourth terms )
8b(b - 2) + 1(b - 2) = 0 ← factor out (b - 2) from each term
(b - 2)(8b + 1) = 0
Equate each factor to zero and solve for b
b - 2 = 0 ⇒ b = 2
8b + 1 = 0 ⇒ 8b = - 1 ⇒ b = - [tex]\frac{1}{8}[/tex]
Substitute these values into (3) and evaluate for a
b = 2 ⇒ a = 2 - 2(2) = 2 - 4 = - 2
b = - [tex]\frac{1}{8}[/tex] ⇒ a = 2 - 2(- [tex]\frac{1}{8}[/tex] ) = 2 + [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] = 2 [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{9}{4}[/tex]
The possible values of a and b are 8, -3 or 9/4 , -1/8 respectively.
What is an equation ?An equation is a combination of different variables, in which two mathematical expressions are equal to each other.
The given equations are,
ax + by = 2 (1)
and bx + a²y = 10 (2)
Also, x = 1 and y = 2 are the solution of the equation,
Substitute x = 1 and y = 2in equation (1),
a(1) + b(2) = 2
a + 2b = 2 (3)
Further substitute x = 1 and y = 2 in equation (2),
b(1) + a²(2) = 10
2a² + b = 10 (4)
By solving equation (3) and (4),
The possible values of a are 8 and 9/4.
And possible value of b are -3 and -1/8.

What forms of the following equation in?
y=5x−3
write the equation of the line that is parallel to y=4x+12 through the point (2,3).
Answer:
y = 4x - 5
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
y = 4x + 12 ← is in slope- intercept form
with slope m = 4
Parallel lines have equal slopes , then
y = 4x + c ← is the partial equation
To find c substitute (2, 3 ) into the partial equation
3 = 8 + c ⇒ c = 3 - 8 = - 5
y = 4x - 5 ← equation of parallel line

[tex]4 + c = 1[/tex]
[tex]c = - 3[/tex]
So Tn:
[tex]3 {n }^{2} + 1n - 3[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
a)
it is clearly a sequence of the square numbers over the numbers+1.
1/2 = 1²/(1+1)
4/3 = 2²/(2+1)
9/4 = 3²/(3+1)
16/5 = 4²/(4+1)
so, the nth term would be
n²/(n+1)
b)
an² + bn + c creates the sequence with increasing n (n = 1, 2, 3, 4, ...)
since for sequence the first starting value is often not generated by the general expression, we have to focus on n = 2, n = 3 and n = 4, and with that we get 3 equations with 3 variables (a, b, c) that we can solve :
n = 2
a×2² + b×2 + c = 11 = 4a + 2b + c
n = 3
a×3² + b×3 + c = 27 = 9a + 3b + c
n = 4
a×4² + b×4 + c = 49 = 16a + 4b + c
the first equation gives us
c = 11 - 4a - 2b
when we use this in the second equation, we get
27 = 9a + 3b + 11 - 4a - 2b = 5a + b + 11
b = 16 - 5a
now we use both of that in the third equation :
49 = 16a +4(16 - 5a) + 11 - 4a - 2(16 - 5a) =
= 16a + 64 - 20a + 11 - 4a - 32 + 10a =
= 2a + 43
2a = 6
a = 3
b = 16 - 5a = 16 - 5×3 = 16 - 15 = 1
c = 11 - 4a - 2b = 11 - 4×3 - 2×1 = 11 - 12 - 2 = -3
if f(x)= 3x+1 and g(x)= x^2-6 FIND (f+g)(x)
Answer:
-x² + 3x + 7
Step-by-step explanation:
• f(x) = 3x + 1
• g(x) = x² - 6
Then,
According to th' question :-
(f - g)(x) = f(x) - g(x)
= 3x + 1 - (x² - 6)
= 3x + 1 - x² + 6
= -x² + 3x + 7

50 points the answer isnt 30 so dont say it is because it isnt
Answer:
its 25.
Step-by-step explanation:because 50 divided by 2 is 25.
Answer:
40 units
Step-by-step explanation:
1) Find the side length of the square
Let the side be "s".
[tex]\rightarrow \frac{1}{2} \times s \times s = 50 \ \text{cm}^{2}[/tex]
[tex]\rightarrow s \times s = 50 \times 2[/tex]
[tex]\rightarrow s \times s = 100[/tex]
[tex]\rightarrow \sqrt{s \times s} = \sqrt{100}[/tex]
[tex]\rightarrow s = \±10[/tex]
[tex]\rightarrow s = 10 \ \text{units}[/tex] (Side lengths can never be negative)
2) Find the perimeter of the square
[tex]\text{Perimeter of square = 4(s) = 4(10) = 40 units}[/tex]

A Freight Train Travels 144 miles in 6 hours. How Far will it travel in 15 hours?
_________________
For this problem I will show you 2 methods.
[tex]{\huge{\boxed{\mathbb{METHOD\:ONE}}[/tex]
Cross multiplication, cross multiplication involves algebra to use.
Let x be our answer for this problem. Here is our it would look like
[tex]\frac{6}{144}=\frac{15}{x}[/tex], now we will cross multiply, here is what it'd look like now.
[tex]6x=2160[/tex], then do simple algebra and divide both sides by 6. and then we get [tex]x=360[/tex] miles in 15 hours.
_________________
[tex]{\huge{\boxed{\mathbb{METHOD\:TWO}}[/tex]
For method two we can look for the unit rate. Also known as our rate for one.
divide 144 by 6 and we get 24, then multiply it by 15 and we get 360.

Write an equation in slope-intercept form that describes the line through the points (-2,6) and (3, 1).
Answer:
y=-x+4
Step-by-step explanation:
m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m=(1-6)/(3-(-2))
m=-5/(3+2)
m=-5/5
m=-1
y-y1=m(x-x1)
y-6=-1(x-(-2))
y-6=-(x+2)
y-6=-x-2
y=-x-2+6
y=-x+4
Evelyn can run 3 miles in 40 minutes
Answer:
m= 4.5 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of miles Evelyn can run be m and can be modeled by the equation below
m= kx
Where x Is the Minutes
When m= 3
x= 40
3= k40
k= 3/40
If x= 60
m=3/40(60)
m = (60*3)/40
m= 180/40
m= 4.5 miles

The half life of a radioactive substance is 10 years. If 64 grams are placed in a
container, how much will remain after 50 years?
Answer:
2 grams
Step-by-step explanation:
50 years is 5 half lives as 1 half life is 10 years.
64 divide 2 = 32-1 half life
32 divide 2 =16-2nd half life
16 divide 2 = 8-3rd half life
8 divide 2 = 4-4th half life
4 divide 2 = 2-5th half life
This means we will have 2 grams left of the radioactive substance after 50 years.

Answer:
p = - [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] , p = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the discriminant to solve for p
Δ = b² - 4ac
The condition on the discriminant for 2 eeal and equal roots is
b² - 4ac = 0
Given
p²x² - (p + 2)x + 1 = 0
with a = p² , b = - (p + 2) , c = 1 , then
(- (p + 2) )² - 4p² = 0
(p + 2)² - 4p² = 0
p² + 4p + 4 - 4p² = 0
- 3p² + 4p + 4 = 0 ( multiply through by - 1 )
3p² - 4p - 4 = 0 ← in standard form
(3p + 2)(p - 2) = 0 ← in factored form
Equate each factor to zero and solve for p
3p + 2 = 0 ⇒ 3p = - 2 ⇒ p = - [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]
p - 2 = 0 ⇒ p = 2
