The sum of two numbers is 32. the larger number is one less than twice the smaller number. find the numbers.

Answers

Answer 1
The numbers are:  "11" and "21" .
________________________________________
Explanation:
________________________________________
x + y = 32 ;     Note:  y  is greater than "x";    

y = 2x − 1 ; 
________________________________________
We have:  " x + y = 32" ;

Plug in "(2x − 1)" for "y" ;
________________________________________
    →  x + (2x − 1) = 32 ; 

    →   x + 1(2x − 1) = 32 ;
 
    →  x + 2x − 1 =  32 ;

    → 1x + 2x − 1 =  32 ;

    →  3x − 1 = 32 ;

Add "1" to each side of the equation ; 

   →  3x − 1 + 1 = 32 + 1 ; 

   →  3x = 33 ;

Divide each side of the equation by "3" ; 
 to isolate "x" on one side of the equation; & to solve for "x" ; 

           3x / 3 = 33 / 3  ;

             x = 11
_______________________________________
Now, let us solve for "y" ;
_______________________________________
Method 1)
_______________________________________
We have:  "x + y = 32" ; 

We have "x = 11 " ;  

Plug in "11" for "x" into the equation; to solve for "y" ; 
_________________________
     "x + y = 11 + y = 32 " ; 

→ y + 11 = 32 ;

Subtract "11" from each side of the equation; 

→ y + 11 − 11 = 32 − 11 ;

  →  y = 21
____________________________________
So; the numbers are:  "11" and "21" .
____________________________________
Method 2)  (and we can do this anyways to confirm our answer):
___________________________________________________
When we have:  "x = 11 " ;  Let us solve for "y" ; 
___________________________________________________
  We have the equation:  "y = 2x − 1 " ;

Plug in the value, "11", for "x", in this equation; to solve for "y" ; 
___________________________________________________
     → y = 2(11) − 1 ;

     → y = 22 − 1 ; 

     → y = 21 
____________________________________________

 So, our answers are:  "11" and "21" .
____________________________________________
Note:  x + y = ? 32 ? ;   → "11 + 21 = ? 32 ? " ; Yes!
____________________________________________
Note:  "y" is the larger number;  y > x ? ;  →  "21 > 11 " ?  Yes!
____________________________________________
Answer 2
Final answer:

To find the two numbers, we set up a system of equations and solve for the variables using substitution.

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we can set up a system of equations. Let's call the smaller number 'x' and the larger number 'y'. We know that the sum of the two numbers is 32, so our first equation is x + y = 32.

We are also given that the larger number is one less than twice the smaller number. This can be written as y = 2x - 1. Now we have two equations:

x + y = 32y = 2x - 1

We can solve this system of equations by substitution or elimination. Let's use substitution:

Starting with the second equation, we can substitute y with its value from the first equation:

2x - 1 = 32 - x

Now we can solve for x:

3x = 33

x = 11

Substituting this back into the first equation, we can find the value of y:

11 + y = 32

y = 21

Therefore, the smaller number is 11 and the larger number is 21.

a wallet that holds $25 contains the same number of $1 bills, $5 bills, and quarters. how many of each type of bill or coin does the wallet contain?

Answers

Ok so you know that since it is a whole number the number of quarters has to add to equal a whole number so start with 4 
4 quarters = $1
4 dollars = $4
4 five $5 = $20 
So 20+4+1 = 25 
There for the answer is 4 
Answer:

The number of  each type of bill or coin the wallet contains is:

                                   4

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that:

A wallet holds $ 25 in total.

Also, the number of $ 1 bills,$ 5 bills and qaurters are present in equal number in the wallet.

Let the number of each coin or bill in the wallet be: x

Also, we know that:

1 quarter= 1/4 dollar

i.e.

1 quarter= 0.25 dollar

Hence, we get:

 x+5x+0.25x=25

i.e.

6.25 x=25

On dividing both side of the equation by 6.25 we get:

   x=25/6.25

i.e.

x=4

Hence, the number of each kind of coin or bill are: 4

What is the angle sum property?

The angle sum property of a triangle states that the sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180 degrees.

Given;

g ∥ h, m∠1 = (4x + 36)°,

m∠2 = (3x – 3)°.

m∠2 = m∠3 ( alternate interoir angle)

we know that

m∠1 + m∠2 = 180

4x + 36 + 3x – 3 = 180

7x + 33 = 180

7x = 147

x = 21

Substituting

m∠2 = 3x – 3

m∠2 = 3(21) - 3

m∠2 = 63 - 3

m∠2= 60

Therefore, m∠3 = m∠2 = 60

Hence, The measure of angle m∠3 would be 60°.

The solutions to the quadratic equation x² + 5x + 3 = 0 are:

x = (-5 + √13) / 2

x = (-5 - √13) / 2

How did we get the values?

To solve the quadratic equation x² + 5x + 3 = 0, we can use the quadratic formula:

x = (-b ± √(b² - 4ac)) / (2a)

In this equation, a = 1, b = 5, and c = 3. Substituting these values into the quadratic formula, we get:

Step-by-step explanation:

All the angles are measured in degrees, show that the triangle is isosceles.

Answers

Value of degree in a polygon is derived by the formular (n - 2) × 180°
n ==> number of sides

∴ (3 - 2) × 180° = 180°

(4x + 8°) + (5x + 2°) + (6x - 10°) = 180°
Remove the parenthesis

4x + 8° + 5x + 2° + 6x - 10° = 180°
Simplify

15x = 180°
x = 12°

An isosceles triangle has 2 equal angles and sides.

In this case, we check them by the angle.

Substitude x into 4x + 8, 5x + 2 and 6x - 10

1. 4(12°) + 8° = 56°
2. 5(12°) + 2° = 62°
3. 6(12°) - 10° = 62°

Notice 2 and 3 have the same angular value.
∴ ∆ is an isosceles ∆.

The triangle is isosceles.

What is a triangle?

A triangle is a polygon that has three vertices on each of its three sides. The angle that is created within the triangle is 180 degrees. It indicates that the sum of a triangle's interior angles is 180 degrees. This is a polygon with the fewest sides. At the end of the day, a triangle is characterized as a three-sided two-layered figure whose inside points are equivalent to 180°.

Given a triangle let the triangle be ΔABC

given angles (4x + 8), (5x + 2) and (6x - 10)

let ∠A = (4x + 8), ∠B =  (5x + 2) and ∠C  = (6x - 10)

we know that sum of angle of triangle is 180⁰

∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180

4x + 8 + 5x + 2 + 6x - 10 = 180

15x = 180

x = 180/15 = 12

∠A = 4x + 8 = 4(12) + 8 = 56⁰

∠B = 5x + 2 = 5(12) + 2 = 62⁰

∠C = 6x - 10 = 6(12) - 10 = 62⁰

since ∠B = ∠C

it is the property of an isosceles triangle, An isosceles triangle is a triangle with any two sides that are the same length and angles on opposite sides that are the same size.

Hence the Given triangle is isosceles.

Determine the n-intercept of the graph of the graph of the car value equation v= -1385n + 18,790

Answers

-1385N + 18,790  = 0
n  = -18790  / -1385 =  13.57 to nearest hundredth

Answer:

13.57

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given an equation [tex]v=-1385n+18,790[/tex], which represents the value of a car. We are asked to find the n-intercept of our given equation.

We know that the n-intercept will be at [tex]v=0[/tex].

[tex]0=-1385n+18,790[/tex]

Subtracting 18,790 from both sides of our equation we will get,

[tex]0-18,790=-1385n+18,790-18,790[/tex]

[tex]-18,790=-1385n[/tex]

Now, we will divide both sides of our equation by [tex]-1385[/tex].

[tex]\frac{-18,790}{-1385}=\frac{-1385n}{-1385}[/tex]

[tex]13.566787=n[/tex]

[tex]n\approx 13.57[/tex]

Therefore, the n-intercept of our given graph is approximately 13.57.

Stephen wants to use the Triangle Proportionality Theorem to determine the relationships on his map. He knows the angle between the park, the bus stop, and his home. Which other angle does he need to know?

Select one:
a. Bus stop, park, and his friend's house
b. Bus stop, park, and his home
c. His friend's house, grocery store, and his home
d. Park, his home, and grocery store

Answers

I think the answer would be C

Answer:

C. His friend's house, grocery store, and his home.

Step-by-step explanation:

Triangle Proportionality Theorem-

If a line parallel to one side of a triangle intersects the other two sides of the triangle, then the line divides these two sides proportionally.

So if the line joining the park, bus stop and friend's house, grocery store will be parallel, Stephen can use triangle proportionality theorem.

When two lines are crossed by another line i.e the transversal, the angles in matching corners are called corresponding angles. And when the corresponding angles are equal then the two lines are parallel.

The corresponding angle of the angle between the park, the bus stop, and his home is the angle between his friend's house, grocery store, and his home.

Therefore, he needs to measure that angle.

100 envelopes cost $0.70 how much would it be for 250

Answers

If 100 envelopes cost 0.70, this means that the cost of one envelope is $0.70 ÷ 100, which is $0.007.
The cost of 250 envelopes would then be 0.007 × 250, which is $1.75

If 100 envelopes cost $0.70 then it would cost $1.75 for 250 envelopes.

If 100 envelopes cost $0.70, we can set up a proportion to determine the cost of 250 envelopes:

100 envelopes / $0.70 = 250 envelopes / x

Cross-multiplying:

100 × x = 250 × $0.70

Simplifying:

100x = 175

Dividing both sides by 100:

x = 175 / 100

x = $1.75

Therefore, it would cost $1.75 for 250 envelopes.

The sum of the measures of the angles of a triangle is 180 degrees.
An isosceles triangle has two congruent sides.
The angles opposite the congruent sides are congruent.
Just like the bottom left angle measures x, the bottom right angle also measures x.

x + x + 38 = 180

2x + 38 = 180

2x = 142

x = 71
If both side are the same then the angles are the same. Now knowing that the sym of a triangle is 180 degrees then we can now subtract 38 to get 142 and then divide 142 by 2 which is 71 so that means each of the other two angles is 71 degrees and your answer is A.

A staircase handrail is made from congruent parallelograms. in parallelogrampqrs, pq = 17.5, st = 18, and m∠ qrs = 110° . find m∠ pqr.

Answers

Final answer:

To find angle PQR in a parallelogram, we can use the Exterior Angle Theorem. By subtracting the measures of the other two angles in triangle QRS from 180 degrees, we find that angle PQR is 70 degrees.

Explanation:

To find the measure of angle PQR, we can use the fact that opposite angles in a parallelogram are congruent. This means that angle PQR is equal to angle STQ. Since STQ is an exterior angle of triangle QRS, we can use the Exterior Angle Theorem to find its measure by subtracting the measures of the other two angles in the triangle from 180 degrees.

Given that angle QRS is 110 degrees, we can find angle STQ by subtracting the measures of angles QRS and QSR from 180 degrees:

angle STQ = 180 - (110 + 180) = -110 degrees

However, angles cannot have negative measures, so we need to find the equivalent positive measure. Adding 180 degrees to -110 degrees gives us angle STQ = 70 degrees. Therefore, angle PQR is also equal to 70 degrees.
