Jaylen and six of her younger siblings have ages that are consecutive. When they moved from San Francisco to Chicago, their ages (all seven of them) added up to 91. How old was Jaylen when they moved? Explain your thinking.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Jaylen was 16 years old. She's the oldest.

Step-by-step explanation:

16  Jaylen

15  sibling 1

14  sibling 2

13  sibling 3

12 sibling 4

11  sibling 5

10  sibling 6

____________

91  Total

My thinking was that I started out dividing 91 by 7. That came out 13. So I knew the oldest one had to be older than 13.

The rest are pear trees.
How many trees are pear trees?

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Take pear trees be X

1/10+2/5+1/3+x=150 (Take LCM of 10,5,3=30)

3/30+12/30+10/30+30x/30= 150

25/30+30x/30=150

25+x=150/30

X=5-25=-20 are pear trees

1/10 of 150 is 15. 2/5 is 60. 1/3 is 50. All together that is 125 leaving is with 25 pear trees.

Michael breeds chickens and ducks.

Last month, he sold 50 chickens and 30 ducks for $550. This month, he sold 44 chickens and 36 ducks for $532.
How much does a chicken cost, and how much does a duck cost?
A chicken costs $_____ and a duck costs $_____.

Answers

Answer:

Chicken:$8   Ducks:$5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's assume

Chickens= c

Ducks=d

50c + 30d = 550 (divide this by 10)--- 5c+3d=55

44c + 36d = 532 (divide this by 4)--- 11c+9d=133

Solving simultaneously:

5c + 3d = 55 (x9)

11c + 9d = 133 (x3)

45c + 27d = 495

33c + 27d = 399

By subtraction we get:

(45c-33c+27d-27d)= 96

12c = 96

Chicken = $ 8 (96/12)

Ducks: 50(8)+ 30d = 550

30d = 150

Ducks = $5 (150/30)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Yes, We can find the cost of one admission to the water park,

We can form two linear equation with two variables and by solving the equation we can determine the cost of one admission.

Cost of 15 people's admission and 8 rental tube  is $ 263.25

15x  + 8y = 263.25  -------------(I)

Cost of 20 people's admission and 13 rental tubes is $ 358

20x + 13y = 358  ------------(II)

(I) * 13        195x + 104y = 3422.25

(II)*(-8)     -160x - 104y  = - 2864   {Now add and so y will be eliminated}

                35x               = 558.25

                                  x = 558.25/35

x = 15.95

Cost of one admission = $ 15.95

HELP! Write an equation of a line that is parallel to y=-2x+3

Answers

Answer:

y = -2x

Step-by-step explanation:

If two lines are parallel to each other, they have the same slope.

The first line is y = -2x + 3. Its slope is -2. A line parallel to this one will also have a slope of -2.

Plug this value (-2) into your standard point-slope equation of y = mx + b.

y = -2x + b

This question only asks for a line parallel to y = -2x + 3.

This means we can plug in any number (except 3) for b. We cannot plug in 3 because then it will be the same equation!

To make things simple, we can use 0 and therefore leave it out.

y = -2x

This line is parallel to y = -2x + 3.

Hope this helps!

Hello!

This is a question relating trigonometry to unknown sides.

Here we can use the law of sines, which state that if a triangle is a right triangle, the ratio between a side and the sin of its opposite angle will be equal to any other ratio of the same type.

This means that we can set up this equation.

[tex]\frac{17}{sin(90)}=\frac{AC}{sin(38)}[/tex]

[tex]AC=17sin(38)[/tex]

Be sure to be on degrees if you're on a calculator.

2x - 42 = 94

Solve for x

Answers

Answer:

x = 68

Step-by-step explanation:

2x - 42 = 94

Use inverse operations to add 42 to both sides of the equation.

2x - 42 + 42 = 94 + 42

Simplify this to-

2x = 136

Now divide 2x and 136 by two for-

2x/2 = 136/2

Simplify.

x = 68

The answer, then, is x = 68.

I hope this helps ^^

Good luck :]
