Three friends, Ayyub, Bran and Curtis, each have some mini chocolate eggs. Bran has 1 more egg than Ayyub. Curtis has 50% more eggs than Bran. Altogether, Ayyub, Bran and Curtis have 48 chocolate eggs. Curtis gives eggs to each of Ayyub and Bran so that they all have the same number of eggs. Work out how many eggs Curtis gives away in total.

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.

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.

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.

Step-by-step explanation:

al nth term:

numerator:

[tex] = {n}^{2} [/tex]

denominator:

[tex] = n + 1[/tex]

so nth term :

[tex] = \frac{ {n}^{2} }{n + 1} [/tex]

b). 1; 11; 27; 49

first difference: 10; 16; 22

second difference :6

formula for 1st difference:3a+b

formula for 2nd difference:2a

Therefore:

2a=6

a=3

3a+b=10

sub in a

3(3)+b=10

9+b=10

b=1

sub into quadratic formula

[tex] {an}^{2} + bn + c[/tex]

[tex](3) {(1)}^{2} + (1)(1) + c = 1[/tex]

[tex]3(1) + 1 + c = 1[/tex]

[tex]3 + 1 + c = 1[/tex]

[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

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

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

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

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]

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

Hello there, there are multiple ways of solving this problem, let me show you.

[tex]{\huge{\boxed{\mathbb{QUESTION}}}}}[/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.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

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

Answer:

  8x +12

Step-by-step explanation:

The outside factor is applied to each term inside parentheses:

  4(2x +3) = 4(2x) +4(3) = 8x +12

[tex]\huge\boxed{Hi\:there!}[/tex]

To simplify this expression, we should use the Distributive Property.

It states that

a(b+c)=ab+ac

Let's use it:

4(2x+3)

8x+12

That's the answer.
