Signed-numbers/746310: If 2x+3y=24 and 2x-3y=12 then value of xy is_____________ 1 solutions
Answer 454219 by mananth(12270) on 2013-05-08 06:45:53 (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website!2.00 x + 3.00 y = 24.00 .............1
Total value
2.00 x -3.00 y = 12.00 .............2
Eliminate y
multiply (1)by 1.00
Multiply (2) by 1.00
2.00 x 3.00 y = 24.00
2.00 x -3.00 y = 12.00
Add the two equations
4.00 x = 36.00
/ 4.00
x = 9.00
plug value of x in (1)
2.00 x + 3.00 y = 24.00
18.00 + 3.00 y = 24.00
3.00 y = 24.00 -18.00
3.00 y = 6.00
y = 2.00
xy=9*2=18

Sequences-and-series/746281: If the third term and fifth term of a geometric progression are 225 and 5625 respectively, determine the sixth term. 1 solutions
Answer 454217 by mananth(12270) on 2013-05-08 06:43:25 (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website!If the third term and fifth term of a geometric progression are 225 and 5625 respectively, determine the sixth term.
Tn = ar^(n01) is the n th term of a GP
T3= ar^(3-1)
T3=ar^2
225=ar^2
Similarly
t5=ar^4
5625=ar^4
divides ne equation by the other
225/5625= ar^2/ar^4
225/5625= 1/r^2
25/75= 1/r
r=3
plug r
225=ar^2
225=a*9
a=225/9
a=25
t6=ar^5
t6=25*3^5
t6=25*243
t6=6075
6th term = 6075

You can put this solution on YOUR website!Keisha rowed downstream for 5 miles and back upstream for 3 miles. She rowed an average of 3 times the rate of the current. Write an expression for her total time.
let current speed be r
rowing speed = 3r
speed up stream = 3r-r=2r
speed down stream = 3r+r=>4r
time down stream = d/r => 5/4r
time upstream = 3/2r

You can put this solution on YOUR website!5x + 3y = 134
x + y = 32. multiply by -3
-3x-3y=-96
add to the first equation
we get
2x=38
x=19
if x=17 plug x in x+y=32
y=13
Adults = 19
children = 13
now you may find the correct statement

Sequences-and-series/745077: Please help If the number of terms of an Arithmetic sequence is 15 and the value of it's middle term is 10 then find the sum of it's terms is there any rule that i can solve it with?? Thanks 1 solutions
Answer 453708 by mananth(12270) on 2013-05-05 09:57:35 (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website!
The nth term of an AP is given by the formula Tn = a+(n-1)d
t15 = a+14d
The middle term is the 8th term
T8=a+7d
10=a+7d
multiply by 2
20=2(a+7d)
20=2a+14d
Sum of n terms = Sn = n/2[2a+(n-1)d]
s15 = 15/2[2a+(15-1)d]
S15= 15/2[2a+14d]
but 2a+14d=20
S15=15/2( 20)
S15=150
sum of 15 terms = 150

x-z=6
But x=4z
4z-z=6

Answer 453680 by mananth(12270) on 2013-05-05 06:11:17 (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website!2.00 x + 5.00 y = -7.00 .............1
Total value
3.00 x -2.00 y = -18.00 .............2
Eliminate y
multiply (1)by 2.00
Multiply (2) by 5.00
4.00 x 10.00 y = -14.00
15.00 x -10.00 y = -90.00
Add the two equations
19.00 x = -104.00
/ 19.00
x = -5.47
plug value of x in (1)
2.00 x + 5.00 y = -7.00
-10.95 + 5.00 y = -7.00
5.00 y = -7.00 + 10.95
5.00 y = 3.95
y = 0.79
x= -5.47
y= 0.79

Quadratic_Equations/745041: I have this problem:
A roof shingle is dropped from a rooftop that is 100 feet above the ground. The height y (in feet) of the dropped roof shingle is given by the function y=-16t^2+100 where t is the time (in second)s since the shingle is dropped. Graph the function.
I have worked out that if I solve for t, t=2.5. But how do I proceed in graphing? My teacher doesn't explain anything and this problem is on my review sheet. We didn't ever see word problems like this in the chapter. Any help you can give me would be very much appreciated. 1 solutions
Answer 453678 by mananth(12270) on 2013-05-05 05:40:44 (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website!y=-16t^2+100
since co-efficient of x^2 is negative the parabola opens downwards
find the two values of x for which y=0
t= +2.5 and -2.5
the two points are (-2.5,0) and (2.5,0)
when t=0, y=100 you get another point (0,100) this is the vertex of the parabola.
take t=+/-1, y1=84 (+/-1,84)
take t=+/-2,y2=68(+/-2,36)
The parabola is symmetric about the axis of symmetry.
Plot the points and trace a symmetric curve.

You can put this solution on YOUR website!A) 4cos x + sqrt 3= 2cos x
4cos x - 2cos x = -sqrt(3)
2cosx=-sqrt(3)
cosx= -sqrt(3)/2
x= 7pi/6
B) 2sin^2 x - 5 sin x= -2
2sin^2 x - 5 sin x +2=0
2sin^2 x - 4 sin x -sinx+2=0
2sinx(sinx-2)-1(sinx-2)=0
(sinx-2)(2sinx-1)=0
sinx = 2
or
sinx =1/2
between 0 & 2pi find x

Travel_Word_Problems/744771: Hello! I need help on this question. I understand all the speed x time equals distance and so, but i don't quite get this kinds of questions. A man walks to work at 3 1/2 kmph and is one minute late. If he walked at 3 1/3 kmph he would have been three minutes late. What is the distance to his office? Thanks :) 1 solutions
Answer 453541 by mananth(12270) on 2013-05-03 22:07:17 (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website!let the right time be t
speed = 3 1/2 kmph time taken = t+(1/60) hours
speed =3 1/3 kmph time taken = t + (3/60) hours
in both cases distance is the same
d=rt
3 1/2 *( t+(1/60) )= distance
3 1/3 (t + (3/60))= distance
3 1/2 *( t+(1/60) )= 3 1/3 (t + (3/60))
7/2((60t+1)/60) = 10/3((60t+3)/60)
cross multiply
21(60t+1)/60 = 20(60t+3)/60
21(60t+1)=20(60t+3)
1260t+21=1200t+60
60t=60-21
60t=39
t= 39/60
t= 39 minutes
With speed of 3 1/2 he takes one minute more => 39+1=40 minutes
d=rt
d= (7/2) *(40/60)
d= 7/3 =2.33 km

Volume/744763: a
cylindrical tennis
ball container can
contain maximum
three ball stacked
on one another.the
top and bottom ball
also touch the lid
and the base of the
container
respectively if the
volume of a tennis
ball is 240 cm,then
what is the volume
of the container? 1 solutions
Answer 453539 by mananth(12270) on 2013-05-03 21:51:27 (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website!V ball = 240
V = 4/3 * pi * r^3
240 = 4/3 * pi * r^3
(240*3)/(4 * pi) = r^3
r^3=57.29
r=3.85 cm radius of the ball
diameter = 7.70cm
Since the balls are touching each other and 3 balls can be place in the cylinder
the height of cylinder = 3 * diameter
=>23.10cm
radius of cylinder = radius of ball
So cylinder volume = pi * r^2*h
r=3.85, h=23.10
substitute to get the answer
1075 cm^3 ( rounded off)

Equations/744471: how do I find the equation of a line that passes through 1,2 and is perpendicular to y equals negative three fourths X plus two and three fourths 1 solutions
Answer 453334 by mananth(12270) on 2013-05-02 22:01:04 (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website!1 y = - 3/ 4 x + 11/4
Divide by 1
y = - 3/ 4 x + 11/4
Compare this equation with y=mx+b, m= slope & b= y intercept
slope m = - 3/4
The slope of a line perpendicular to the above line will be the negative reciprocal 4/3
Because m1*m2 =-1
The slope of the required line will be4/3
m=4/3 ,point ( 1 , 2 )
Find b by plugging the values of m & the point in
y=mx+b
2 = 4/ 3 + b
b= 2/3
m= 4/3
The required equation is y = 4/ 3 x + 2/ 3

You can put this solution on YOUR website!Part I 4.50% per annum ------------- Amount invested =x
Part II 6.00% per annum ------------ Amount invested = y
25000
Interest----- 1380.00
Part I 4.50% per annum ---x
Part II 6.00% per annum ---y
Total investment
x + 1 y= 25000 -------------1
Interest on both investments
4.50% x + 6.00% y= 1380
Multiply by 100
4.5 x + 6 y= 138000.00 --------2
Multiply (1) by -4.5
we get
-4.5 x -4.5 y= -112500.00
Add this to (2)
0 x 1.5 y= 25500
divide by 1.5
y = 17000
Part I 4.50% $ 8000
Part II 6.00% $ 17000
CHECK
8000 --------- 4.50% ------- 360.00
17000 ------------- 6.00% ------- 1020.00
Total -------------------- 1380.00
