George is twice as old as Edward, and Edward’s age exceeds Robert’s age by 4 years. If the sum of the three ages is at least 56 years, what is Robert’s minimum age?

Answers

Final answer:

To find Robert's minimum age, we need to determine the ages of George and Edward first. Let's assume Edward's age is x. According to the information given, George is twice as old as Edward, so George's age is 2x. Edward's age exceeds Robert's age by 4 years, meaning Robert's age is x - 4. The sum of the three ages is at least 56 years, so we can write the equation x + 2x + (x - 4) >= 56.

Explanation:

To find Robert's minimum age, we need to determine the ages of George and Edward first.

Let's assume Edward's age is x. According to the information given, George is twice as old as Edward, so George's age is 2x.

Edward's age exceeds Robert's age by 4 years, meaning Robert's age is x - 4.

The sum of the three ages is at least 56 years, so we can write the equation x + 2x + (x - 4) >= 56. Simplifying this, we get 4x - 4 >= 56. Adding 4 to both sides, we have 4x >= 60. Dividing by 4, we find that x >= 15.

Therefore, Edward's minimum age is 15 years, and Robert's minimum age is 15 - 4 = 11 years.

What expression is equivalent to 40 divided by 1/4

Answers

The expression which is equivalent to 40 divided by 1/4 is 40 × 4 or the value is 160.

Given expression is 40 divided by 1/4.

We have to find the value of the expression and the equivalent expression for this.

This is a division expression.

40 ÷ 1/4

amanda ran 4 laps around the school track. Clifford ran half as many laps as brian ran. Together the 3 friends ran 13 laps. How many laps did bryan run

Answers

Answer: 6 laps

Step-by-step explanation:

13  - 4= 9 left  6 and half would be three

Final answer:

To find out how many laps Bryan ran, an equation was formulated combining the laps Amanda and Clifford ran with the total laps, which, when solved, showed Bryan ran 6 laps.

Explanation:

To solve the problem, let's denote the number of laps Bryan ran as B, Amanda ran 4 laps, and Clifford ran half as many laps as Bryan, so that's B/2 laps.

According to the problem, together they ran a total of 13 laps.

Now we can write an equation based on the information given:

4 + (B/2) + B = 13

Next, we solve for BD:

Combine like terms:

B + B/2 = 13 - 4

1.5B = 9

Divide by 1.5 to solve for B:

B = 9 / 1.5

B = 6

So, Bryan ran 6 laps.

I'll do the first two problems (13 and 14) to get you started.

===========================================================

Problem 13

I'm going to use square blocks instead of marbles. The same idea applies either way. I'm using blocks because they are easier to draw out.

Draw 9 square blocks that are connected end-to-end forming a long chain. Write O in the first four blocks to represent "orange". Write G in the remaining 5 blocks to represent "green". See figure 1 in the attached image below.

This diagram represents the fact that the orange and green blocks form a ratio of 4:5. There are 4 parts that are orange and 5 parts that are green.

If we have 6 rows of these blocks (see figure 2), then we'll have 6*5 = 30 green blocks overall. This leads to 6*4 = 24 orange blocks. So far we have 30+24 = 54 blocks that are green or orange.

-----

Let x be the total number of blocks

40% of the total x is the number of yellow

40% of x = 0.40*x

60% of x is the remaining number

0.60*x = 54

x = 54/0.60

x = 90

There are 90 blocks total

40% of 90 = 0.40*90 = 36 are yellow

60% of 90 = 0.60*90 = 54 are either green or orange

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

Final Answer: 36 yellow marbles

===========================================================

Problem 14

Michael has 40 books. Susan has 50% more books than Michael. This means she has 1.5 times as many books

1.5*40 = 60

Susan has 60 books

If Michael buys 8 more books, then he will have 40+8 = 48, which is still less than 60. Susan still has more books.

-------

Let's compute the percentage difference

A = 48 is the amount of books Michael has

B = 60 is the amount Susan has

C = percent difference

C = 100*(B-A)/A

C = 100*(60-48)/48

C = 25%

Susan has 25% more books compared to Michael

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

Final Answer: Susan will still have more books. She will have 25% more books after Michael buys those 8 books.

The vertices of about isosceles trapezoid are located at (2,5),(6,5),(9,3) and?

Answers

Final answer:

To determine the fourth vertex of an isosceles trapezoid given three vertices, we use symmetry and properties of isosceles trapezoids, concluding the missing vertex is likely at (-1,3).

Explanation:

To find the fourth vertex of an isosceles trapezoid given three vertices, we need to use the properties of isosceles trapezoids. The properties pertinent to solving this problem include parallel bases and non-parallel sides of equal length. Given vertices at (2,5), (6,5), and (9,3), we know the top base is parallel to the x-axis, as the y-coordinate is the same (5) for the first two points.


For the trapezoid to be isosceles, the fourth vertex must follow the pattern of equal non-parallel sides. Observing the pattern of the given points, and noting that the length of the non-parallel side from (9,3) should equal that of the side starting from (2,5), we conclude the missing point must maintain this equality in distance and form a right angle, mirroring the shape on the opposite side.


Without specific lengths, we apply symmetry principles. The height difference between the known base and the third vertex (3) indicates a 2-unit drop, suggesting the opposite side will mirror this. Thus, the fourth vertex should be 2 units below the other base vertex, at (2,5), making the y-coordinate 3. Given the distances in x are equal (4 units from each end vertex to their respective base vertex), the fourth vertex is at (-1,3).

The formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is p=2(l+w). If the width of a rectangle is half its length, how many times its length is its perimeter??

Answers

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

if you take half of something then you divide my 2

Final answer:

The perimeter of a rectangle whose width is half its length is three times the length of the rectangle. This can be calculated using the formula p = 2(l + w), substituting w with l/2, which simplifies to p = 3l.

Explanation:

The student is asking how many times a rectangle's length is its own perimeter if the width of the rectangle is half its length. Using the formula for the perimeter of a rectangle, which is p = 2(l + w), and knowing that the width (w) is half the length (l), we can substitute w with l/2.

Hence, the formula becomes p = 2(l + l/2) = 2(3l/2) = 3l. Therefore, the perimeter is three times the length of the rectangle.

what is the approximate perimeter of the triangle below? Angle A is 50, Angle B is 60 and line CA is 90 in

Answers

Answer:

267.3 in.

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the Sine Rule:

90 / sin 60 = BC/ sin 50

BC = 90 sin 50 / sin 60 = 79.6 in.

Angle C = 180 - 50 - 60 = 70 degrees.

90 / sin 60 = AB / sin 70

AB =  90 sin 70 / sin 60 = 97.7 in.

So the perimeter = 90+ 79.6 + 97.7

Line m passes through the Point (2, 1) and has a slope of -2/7. What is the equation of Line m in standard form?

7x + 2y = 11
7x + 2y = 16
2x + 7y = 11
2x +7y = 16

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope m = -2/7

Points are (2,1)

y1 = 1 and x1 = 2

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y -1 = -2/7(x - 2)

Multiple each term by 7

7y - 7 = -2(x - 2)

7y - 7 = -2x + 4

7y = -2x + 4 + 7

2x + 7y = 11

a rectangular parking lot has an area of 7/10 square kilometer the width is 1/3 kilometer what is the length of the parking lot written as an improper fraction in kilometers

Answers

Answer:

[tex]2\frac{1}{10}[/tex] km

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

The are of a rectangle as 7/10 km²Width of the rectangle is 1/3 km

We are required to find the length of the rectangle;

We need to know how to find the area of a rectangle first;

Area of rectangle = Length × Width

Rearranging the formula;

Length = Area of rectangle ÷ Width

            = 7/10 km² ÷ 1/3 km

   We get;

           [tex]=\frac{7}{10} *\frac{3}{1}[/tex]

           [tex]=\frac{21}{10}[/tex]

           [tex]=2\frac{1}{10} km[/tex] (improper fraction)

Thus, the length of the rectangular park is [tex]2\frac{1}{10}[/tex] km

Final answer:

The length of the parking lot is 21/10 kilometers. This is found by rearranging the formula of the rectangular area to solve for length, substituting the given values and simplifying.

Explanation:

The problem is about finding the length of a rectangle when we know the area and the width. The formula of the area for a rectangle is the product of its length times its width. In this case, the area of the parking lot is 7/10 square kilometers and the width is 1/3 kilometers. The formula becomes: Area = Length * Width .

From this we can solve for length by dividing the area by the width, thus: Length = Area / Width. Substituting the values, we get: Length = (7/10) / (1/3), which simplifies to Length = (7/10) * (3/1) = (21/10) km.

So the length of the parking lot is 21/10 kilometers, or 2.1 kilometers written in decimal form.
