The ratio of the number of fiction books to the number of non-fiction books in a library is 8:5. There are 678 more fiction books than non-fiction books. How many non-fiction books are there in the library?​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

1130 non fiction

Step-by-step explanation:

F=fiction

NF=non fiction

F-678=NF

5F=8NF

so NF=5/8F

substitute:

F-678=5/8F

reduce:

3/8F=678

F=1808

NF=1130

Answer 2

There are 1130 non fiction books in the library.

Given that,

Ratio of fiction books (F) to non fiction books (NF) is 8:5.678 more fiction books in library.We need to find the number of non fiction books.

According to the scenario, calculation of data are as follows,

[tex]\frac{F}{NF} = \frac{8}{5}[/tex]

or 5F = 8NF

Now, NF = F-678

By putting the value, we get

5F = 8 ( F - 678)

5F = 8F - 5424

3F = 5424

F = 1808

So, By putting in 1st eq. we get,

5 [tex]\times[/tex] 1808 = 8NF

NF = 9040 [tex]\div[/tex] 8

NF = 1130

Non fiction books = 1130 books.

Solve the simulataneous equations. 5x-4y=19 x+2y=8

Answers

Answer:

(5, 1.5 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

5x - 4y = 19 → (1)

x + 2y = 8 → (2)

Multiplying (2) by 2 and adding to (1) will eliminate the y- term

2x + 4y = 16 → (3)

Add (1) and (3) term by term to eliminate y

7x + 0 = 35

7x = 35 ( divide both sides by 7 )

x = 5

Substitute x = 5 into either of the 2 equations and solve for y

Substituting into (2)

5 + 2y = 8 ( subtract 5 from both sides )

2y = 3 ( divide both sides by 2 )

y = 1.5

solution is (5, 1.5 )

Enter the equation in standard form.

Skylar is answering the following math problem: The value of an investment decreased by 10%. The original amount of the investment was $75.00. What is the current value of the investment? Skylar said 10% of $75.00 is $7.50, and since the investment decreased by that amount, you have to subtract $7.50 from $75.00 to arrive at the final answer of $67.50. Create one algebraic equation that can be used to arrive at the final answer of $67.50. Solve the equation to prove it results in an answer of $67.50. Be prepared to explain your thought process to the class.

Answers

Answer:

The given parameters of the investment are;

The rate of decrease of the investment, r = -10%

The original amount of the investment, P = $75.00

Let 'A' represent the final answer (value of the investment) after the decrease in the investment, 'r', is applied, we have;

The algebraic equation that can be used to arrive at the final answer, 'A', is given as follows;

A = P + r·P

Therefore by substituting the given values, we have;

A = $75.00 + (-10/100) × $75.00 = $75.00 - 0.1 × $75.00 = $75.00 - $7.50

A = $75.00 - $7.50 = $67.50

The final amount or answer, A = $67.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Vanilla, v = x

Chocolate, c = 3x

Strawberry, s = 3 dozens = 36

Total cupcakes = 132

Hence,

x + 3x + 36 = 132

4x = 96

x = 96 / 4

x = 24

Chocolate = 3 * 24 = 72

y = 5x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation at the bottom is already in slope-intercept form, or y = mx + b format. It lacks one missing piece: b, or the y-intercept. However, the slope of the equation must be 5, because the number in place of the m equals the slope.

So, use the point-slope formula [tex]y-y_1 = m (x-x_1)[/tex], and substitute [tex]m[/tex], [tex]x_1[/tex], and [tex]y_1[/tex] for real values. From there, we can isolate y to receive the full equation in slope-intercept form.

Since m represents the slope, substitute 5 in its place. Since the [tex]x_1[/tex] and [tex]y_1[/tex] represent the x and y values of a point the line intersects, choose any of the points provided and substitute its values into the formula. (Either one is fine, and I chose (1,3).) From there, isolate y to find the slope-intercept form and answer:

[tex]y-(3) = 5 (x-(1))\\y - 3 = 5(x-1)\\y - 3 = 5x -5\\y = 5x - 2[/tex]

the answer is y=5x-2

We can let t represent the time in hours that Kara ran today. Then her distance today is ...

  distance = speed · time

  distance = 6t

Her total distance for both days is ...

  5 + 6t = 6.5

  6t = 1.5 . . . . . . . . . . subtract 5

  t = 1.5/6 = 1/4 . . . . . divide by 6

Kara ran 1/4 hour today. That is 15 minutes.

Let's say you wanted to buy a television. The television cost $200 but you only have $100, so you ask your friend for some money. Your friend says they will give you money but you have to pay them back and pay them interest. So when you go pay them, you pay them $100 dollars along with the amount of money your friend wants you to pay them for borrowing their money. In the end you could end up giving them 120 instead of 100.

C. The charge for the privilege of borrowing money

А
(x - 9)(x - 5)
B
(x + 9)(x+5)
(20 +9)(x - 5)
D
(x - 9)(x+5)

Answers

Answer:

D. (x - 9)(x+5)

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]x^{2} - 4x - 45[/tex] is your expression, so you have to factor it out. Since from the options available it's clear that the factors of -45 you use are some form of 9 and 5, we can use the process of elimination to figure out which are the correct ones.

First, through FOIL u know that in any factored form the last two terms in each bracket multiply together to make the last term in the expanded form.

So first, look at A. the last two terms are -9 and -5, which = 45 when multiplied together. 45 does not = -45, so it can't be A.

B has 9 and 5. When they're multiplied, they = 45, which does not = -45, so its not B

It can't be C either, because the first term of the first bracket in C is 20, and when multiplied with x it doesn't produce x^2.

Therefore it has to be D. u can check this by multiplying -9 and 5, which = -45, the final term in the expanded form. Also, -9 + 5 = -4, which is the middle term of the expanded form.

The equivalent expression to x² - 4x - 45 is (x - 9)(x + 5), which corresponds to option A.

To factor the quadratic expression x² - 4x - 45, we need to find two binomials that, when multiplied, give us the original expression.

We look for two numbers whose product is -45 (the coefficient of the constant term) and whose sum is -4 (the coefficient of the linear term, -4x). After some exploration, we find that the numbers -9 and 5 satisfy these conditions.

Thus, we can express x² - 4x - 45 as (x - 9)(x + 5). This is because when we multiply the two binomials (x - 9) and (x + 5) using the distributive property, we obtain the original quadratic expression.

This factored form, (x - 9)(x + 5), represents the equivalent expression to x² - 4x - 45.

Answers

Answer:400

Step-by-step explanation

in order to find slope you put the change in y over the change in x, y gains 1200 units while x gains 3 units, this means we get 1200/3 and we can simplify it to 400

Answer:

400

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the formula [tex]\frac{rise}{run}[/tex] to find slope!

So first we find points on the graph. The first point we see is 600. The second point we see is 1,400. Next, we find the rising distance between 1,400 and 600 which is 800. Now we look at the running distance which is 2. Now we plug it into the [tex]\frac{rise}{run}[/tex] formula.

The formula should now look like this:

[tex]\frac{rise}{run}\\[/tex] = [tex]\frac{800}{2}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{800}{2}[/tex] = 400

So the slope is 400

Simplify the following expression 3°?​

Answers

Answer: 1

Anything to the 0 power is 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

1

Step-by-step explanation:

As you may already know, the number (the base) to the power (the exponent) is how many times you multiply the base. For instance:

3² = 3 * 3

3³ = 3 * 3 * 3

However, anything to the zeroth power is 1.

Why?

Well, for those above examples, take 3², you can also write it as:

3² = 1 * 3 * 3

It's just 1 times how many of that number. In 3 squared, there are twos 3's, not to be confused with 3 * 2.

In 3 to the zeroth power, there are zero 3's:

3° = 1

Now it has only the one.

This is just the way I was taught to think about it, but I'm sure there's a better explanation than mine.
