Translate. Eight less than the difference of a number and five is twelve.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

(x - 5) - 8 = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets portion each part out:

Eight less than

The difference of a number and five

Is twelve.

First, we must write down the portion with "a number" in it: x - 5. We use subtraction because the sentence states "the difference".

Next, we will write down "eight less than". The problem states that twelve is "eight less than" the difference. This means that we must subtract 8 from out first part: (x - 5) - 8

Finally, the sentence tells us that this equals twelve: (x - 5) - 8 = 12

Lin is playing hand ball and wants the ball
to bounce off wall CB and land at D.
Where on the wall should she aim if she's
standing at point A?

Answers

Lin should aim the ball at 7.8 feet away from point  B

From the question (see attachment), we have the following equivalent ratios:

[tex]AB : BE = DC :CE[/tex]

This is so because triangles ABE and DCE are similar triangles.

Such that:

[tex]BE + CE = 20[/tex]

[tex]AB = 16[/tex]

[tex]DC = 16 + 9 = 25[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]AB : BE = DC :CE[/tex]

[tex]16 : BE = 25: CE[/tex]

Make CE the subject in [tex]BE + CE = 20[/tex]

[tex]CE=20 - BE[/tex]

Substitute 20 - BE for CE in [tex]16 : BE = 25: CE[/tex]

[tex]16 : BE = 25: 20 - BE[/tex]

Express as ratio

[tex]\frac{16 }{ BE} = \frac{25}{ 20 - BE}[/tex]

Cross multiply

[tex]16(20 - BE) = 25BE[/tex]

Open bracket

[tex]320 - 16BE = 25BE[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]25BE + 16BE = 320[/tex]

[tex]41BE = 320[/tex]

Divide both sides by 41

[tex]BE = 7.8[/tex]

Hence, she should aim at 7.8 feet away from point  B

John is 10 years younger than james . In 5 years time James will be twice as old as John 1. How old is John 2. what was their total age 3 years ago​

Answers

Answer:

John is 5 nowtotal age 3 years ago was 14

Step-by-step explanation:

When James is twice as old as John, the difference in their ages will be John's age: 10. That is 5 years from now, so John's age now is 10 -5 = 5.

John is 5 years old.

3 years ago, John was 2 and James was 12. Their total age at that time was 14.

3 A total of 30 shirts were recently sold at Friday night's football game. Each adult shirt cost
$11.50 and each youth shirt cost $9.45. The total revenue was $324.50.
of two equations that can be used to solve for the number of A (adult) shirts

Answers

Answer:

number of adult shirts sold (a) = 20

number of youth shirts sold (b) = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

a = number of adult shirts sold

y = number of youth shirts sold

30 = a + y

$324.50 = 11.50a + 9.45y

This is the resulting system of equations from the given information in the problem.

Solve for y in the first equation and then substitute the equation for y into the second equation :

a+y=30 --> y=30-a

324.50 = 11.50a + 9.45(30-a)

Solve for a.

324.50 = 11.50a + 283.5 - 9.45a

41 = 2.05a

a = 20

Now that we have solved for a, we can back substitute into our equation for y and solve.

y=30-(20)

y = 10

CHECK:

(20)+(10) = 30 True

(11.50)(20) + (9.45)(10) = 324.5  True

The measure of angle BAC is 20 degrees

How to determine the measure of BAC?

The angle on a straight line is 180 degrees.

There are 9 equal sections on the straight line.

This means that the measure of each section is:

Each section = 180/9

Evaluate

Each section = 20

So, we have:

Which equation matches the given points? (0, 7.6), (1, 6.2), (2, 4.8), (3, 3.4), (4,2)

Answers

The equation that matches the given points is g(x) = -1.4x + 7.6

The standard form of a linear  equation is expressed as [tex]g(x)=mx + b[/tex]

m is the slope of the lineb is the y-intercept:

Using the coordinate points (3, 3.4), (4,2)

[tex]m=\frac{2-3.4}{4-3}\\m=\frac{-1.4}{1}\\m=-1.4[/tex]

Substitute m = -1.4 and the coordinate (4, 2) into the formula:

[tex]2=4(-1.4)+b\\2=-5.6+b\\b=2+5.6\\b=7.6[/tex]

Get the required equation:

(i)Given that:

AE || BD

AB = ? [Let AB be x]

BC = 3

ED = 12

DC = 4

We know that

By Basic Proportionality Theorem,

AB/BC = ED/DC

On substituting these values in the above formula

⇛ AB / 3 = 12 / 4

On applying cross multiplication then

⇛ x(4) = (12)3

⇛ 4x = 36

Shift the number 4 from LHS to RHS.

⇛ x = 36÷4

⇛ x = 36/4

Therefore, AB = 9

Answer: The value of AB for the given problem is 9.

Similarly,

(ii) Given that:

EB || DC

AE = 14

ED = 12

AB = ? [Let AB be X]

BC = 18

We know that

By Basic Proportionality Theorem,

AE / ED = AB / BC

On substituting these values in the above formula

⇛ 14 / 12 = x / 18

On applying cross multiplication then

⇛ 14(18) = (12)x

⇛ 252 = 12x

Shift the number 252 from LHS to RHS.

⇛ X = 256÷12

⇛ X = 21

Therefore, AB = 21

Answer: The value of AB for the given problem is 21

Find the term indecent of x in the expansion of (x^2-1/x)^6

Answers

By the binomial theorem,

[tex]\displaystyle \left(x^2-\frac1x\right)^6 = \sum_{k=0}^6 \binom 6k (x^2)^{6-k} \left(-\frac1x\right)^k = \sum_{k=0}^6 \binom 6k (-1)^k x^{12-3k}[/tex]

I assume you meant to say "independent", not "indecent", meaning we're looking for the constant term in the expansion. This happens for k such that

12 - 3k = 0   ===>   3k = 12   ===>   k = 4

which corresponds to the constant coefficient
