Luke and Ella have money in their bank account in the ratio 7:8

Luke gives £2 to Ella, and the ratio becomes 4:5.

Work out the original amount of money that Ella had.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

$48

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratios can be written as fractions.

1) Initially, Luke had 7x money, Ella had 8x money. Luke gives $2 to Ella. So, Luke now has 7x - 2 money and Ella has 8x + 2. The total amount of money is 4:5. These could be shown as fractions.

7x - 2/8x + 2 = 4/5

4(8x + 2) = 5(7x - 2)

32x + 8 = 35x - 10

8 + 10 = 35x - 32x

18 = 3x

18/3 = x

x = 6

2) Substitute the result (x = 6) into 7x:8x.

= 7(6)

= 42

= 8(6)

= 48

Write the multiplication equation that represents the model

Answers

Answer:

2/3 × 2/5 = 4/15

Step-by-step explanation:

see image. If you just look at the horizontal lines the rectangle is divided into thirds. Two of the sections are highlighted indicating 2 out of 3, or 2/3.

If you then consider the vertical lines. There are 5 sections and 2 out of the 5 are highlighted indicating 2/5.

When you overlap both images (which is what the original image you posted was) you get a small section that is doubly highlighted. In your original image it is kind of purple (I marked them in yellow) In the double-layered image, there are 15 small sections. 4 are highlighted (double-highlighted) This is 4/15.

2/3 × 2/5 = 4/15

I supposed it could also be

2/5 × 2/3 = 4/15

Numerically, these are the same. They have the same result. I hope this helps!

Solve 4\left| {x + 5} \right| + 8 = 244∣x+5∣+8=24.

Answers

Isolate the absolute value term:

4 |x + 5| + 8 = 24

4 |x + 5| = 16

|x + 5| = 4

By definition of absolute value,

• if x + 5 ≥ 0, then |x + 5| = x + 5, and so

x + 5 = 4

x = -1

• otherwise, if x + 5 < 0, then |x + 5| = -(x + 5), and so

-x - 5 = 4

-x = 9

x = -9

Variability ? I'm confused

Variability in statistics… Let's see...dispersion is the degree to which a percentage is stretched or even squeezed. Some examples of measures of statistical “dispersion” ( or distribution) are the variance, standard deviation, and interquartile span. Like when the variance of data in a set is big; the data is gretaoy dispersed.

In centimeters, what is the unknown length in this right triangle?
A right triangle with side length 60 centimeters, x, and hypotenuse of 61 centimeters.

Answers

Answer:

Given:-

Side length ( perpendicular = 60 cm)

Hypotenuse = 61 cm

To find :-

Base length

Solution:

By Pythagoras theorem ,

Hypotenuse² = Perpendicular² + Base²

61² = 60² + base²

3721-3600 = Base²

√121 = base

11cm = base

Answer:

Base = x = 11 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

In the question we are given ,

Side length ( Perpendicular ) = 60 cm

Hypotenuse = 61 cm

And we have asked to find the length of base that is denoted by x .

Solution : -

According to Pythagoras Theorem ,

[tex] \longrightarrow \purple{\boxed{H {}^{2} = P {}^{2} + B {}^{2} }} \longleftarrow[/tex]

Where ,

H = Hypotenuse

P = Perpendicular

B = Base

Now , substituting value of hypotenuse, perpendicular and base :

[tex] \hookrightarrow \: 61 {}^{2} = 60 {}^{2} + x {}^{2} [/tex]

Now by squaring 61 and 60 , we get :

[tex] \hookrightarrow \:3721 = 3600 + x {}^{2} [/tex]

Now transposing 3600 to left hand side :

[tex] \hookrightarrow \:3721 - 3600 = x {}^{2} [/tex]

Now subtracting 3600 from 3721 :

[tex] \hookrightarrow \:121 = x {}^{2} [/tex]

[tex] \hookrightarrow \: \sqrt{121} = x[/tex]

We know that 11 × 11 is equal to 121 that means square root of 121 is 11 . So :

[tex] \hookrightarrow \: \red{ \boxed{11 \: cm = x}}[/tex]

x = base

Henceforth, length of base of right triangle is 11 cm .

What is the Corresponding Angles Theorem?

If two corresponding angles are formed when a transversal intersect parallel lines, they are both congruent based on the corresponding angles theorem.

1. m∠5 = m∠1 (corresponding angles theorem)

m∠5 = 75°

2. Sum of angles in a triangle = 180°

3. m∠3 + m∠4 + m∠5 = 180° (sum of triangle)

Substitute

m∠3 = 180 - 50 - 75 = 55°

4. Straight line angle = 180°

5. m∠2 = 180 - m∠3 + m∠1 (straight line angle)

m∠2 = 180 - 55 - 75

m∠2 = 50°

Find the turning point of y=x^2+10x+12

Answers

Answer:

vertex = (- 5, - 13 )

Step-by-step explanation:

given a quadratic in standard form : y = ax² + bx + c ( a ≠ 0 )

then the x- coordinate of the turning point ( vertex) is

x = - [tex]\frac{b}{2a}[/tex]

y = x² + 10x + 12 ← is in standard form

with a = 1, b = 10 , then

x = - [tex]\frac{10}{2}[/tex] = - 5

substitute x = - 5 into the equation and evaluate for y

y = (- 5)² + 10(- 5) + 12 = 25 - 50 + 12 = - 13

turning point = (- 5, - 13 )

X' + 2y' + x = 0 , x' - y' + y = 0 x(0) = 0 and y(0) = 1

Answers

This looks like a system of differential equations.

[tex]\begin{cases}x' + 2y' + x = 0 \\ x' - y' + y = 0 \\x(0)=0, y(0)=1\end{cases}[/tex]

Eliminating x' gives

[tex](x'+2y'+x)-(x'-y'+y) = 0 - 0 \implies 3y' - y + x = 0[/tex]

and eliminating y' gives

[tex](x'+2y'+x) + 2(x'-y'+y)=0+2\times0 \implies 3x' + x + 2y = 0[/tex]

so that we can rewrite the system as

[tex]\begin{cases}3x' = -x - 2y \\ 3y' = -x + y\end{cases}[/tex]

or equivalently in matrix form as

[tex]\begin{bmatrix}x\\y\end{bmatrix}' = \dfrac13 \begin{bmatrix}-1&-2\\-1&1\end{bmatrix} \begin{bmatrix}x\\y\end{bmatrix}[/tex]

Compute the eigenvalues for the coefficient matrix:

[tex]\det\begin{bmatrix}-1-\lambda&-2\\-1&1-\lambda\end{bmatrix} = (-1-\lambda)(1-\lambda) - 2 = \lambda^2 -3 = 0 \implies \lambda=\pm\sqrt3[/tex]

Compute the corresponding eigenvectors:

[tex]\lambda=\sqrt3 \implies \begin{bmatrix}-1-\sqrt3&-2\\-1&1-\sqrt3\end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix}v_1\\v_2\end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}0\\0\end{bmatrix} \\\\ \implies v_1=(1-\sqrt3)v_2 \implies \vec v = \begin{bmatrix}1-\sqrt3\\1\end{bmatrix}[/tex]

[tex]\lambda=-\sqrt3 \implies \begin{bmatrix}-1+\sqrt3&-2\\-1&1+\sqrt3\end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix}v_1\\v_2\end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}0\\0\end{bmatrix} \\\\ \implies v_1 = (1+\sqrt3)v_2 \implies \vec v = \begin{bmatrix}1+\sqrt3\\1\end{bmatrix}[/tex]

We end up multiplying the matrix by 1/3, so the eigenvalues also get scaled by 1/3 and λ = ±1/√3. The eigenvectors stay the same.

Then the characteristic solution to the system is

[tex]\begin{bmatrix}x\\y\end{bmatrix} = C_1 e^{t/\sqrt3} \begin{bmatrix}\frac{1-\sqrt3}3\\\frac13\end{bmatrix} + C_2 e^{-t/\sqrt3} \begin{bmatrix}\frac{1+\sqrt3}3\\\frac13\end{bmatrix}[/tex]

Use the initial conditions to solve for the constants.

[tex]\begin{bmatrix}0\\1\end{bmatrix} = C_1 \begin{bmatrix}\frac{1-\sqrt3}3\\\frac13\end{bmatrix} + C_2 \begin{bmatrix}\frac{1+\sqrt3}3\\\frac13\end{bmatrix}[/tex]

[tex]\implies \begin{cases}(1-\sqrt3) C_1 + (1+\sqrt3) C_2 = 0 \\ C_1 + C_2 = 3\end{cases}[/tex]

[tex]\implies C_1=\dfrac{3+\sqrt3}2, C_2=\dfrac{3-\sqrt3}2[/tex]

Then the particular solution is

[tex]\begin{bmatrix}x\\y\end{bmatrix} = \dfrac{3+\sqrt3}6 e^{t/\sqrt3} \begin{bmatrix}1-\sqrt3\\1\end{bmatrix} + \dfrac{3-\sqrt3}6 e^{-t/\sqrt3} \begin{bmatrix}1+\sqrt3\\1\end{bmatrix}[/tex]

or

[tex]\begin{cases}x(t) = -\dfrac1{\sqrt3} e^{\sqrt3 \, t} + \dfrac1{\sqrt3} e^{-\sqrt3\,t} \\\\ y(t) = \dfrac{3+\sqrt3}6 e^{\sqrt3\,t} + \dfrac{3-\sqrt3}6 e^{-\sqrt3\,t}\end{cases}[/tex]
