a fancy beaded bracelet requires 3 and 1/4 in of string for everyone in of the length of the bracelet if you were to make a bracelet that is 7 1/2 in long how much string would you need

To solve this, we need to turn this word problem into a system of linear equations. To do this, let's use x to stand for Mr. Fontana's age, and y to stand for his son's age.

The first sentence states that eight years ago, Mr. Fontana was six times as old as his son.

eight years ago = x - 8

Fontana was six times as old as his son = 6(y - 8). Remember, we need subtract 8 from his son's age, which is why I wrote it as 6(y - 8), and his father was 6 times his son's age 8 years ago, which is why I multiplied 6 by y - 8.

Now, putting this all together gives us our first equation:

x - 8 = 6(y - 8)

We can now rewrite this equation in standard form:

x - 8 = 6y - 48 ----->

x - 6y = -48 + 8 ----->

x - 6y = -40 <----- this is our first linear equation

To find our second, we need to turn the second sentence into an equation. It says that in 12 years, Mr. Fontana will be twice as old as his son:

x + 12 = 2(y + 12)

Now, we need to rewrite this equation in standard form:

x + 12 = 2y + 24 ----->

x - 2y = 24 - 12 ----->

x - 2y = 12 <----- this is our second linear equation. We now have our system of equations:

x - 6y = -40

x - 2y = 12

Now we can find the father's age (x) and his son's age (y). First, multiply the second equation by -1, giving us:

x - 6y = -40

-x + 2y = -12

Now we can add both equations together:

x - x - 6y + 2y = -40 + -12 ----->

-4y = -52

Solve for y, by dividing both sides of the equation by -4, giving us:

y = 13

So, now we know the son's age: 13

To find the father's age, replace y in either the first equation or the second equation, with 13. Let's use the first equation:

x - 6(13) = -40 ----->

x - 78 = -40 ----->

x = 78 - 40 ----->

x = 38

Therefore, Mr. Fontana is 38 years old and his son is 13 years old.

Answer:

x=120

Step-by-step explanation:

this is obtained by finding 22% of x, and equating it to the answer as shown below

x *22/100 = 26.4

22x/100 = 26.4

22x = 2640

x =120

Answer:

(w+3)(w+1)

Step-by-step explanation:

In w^2 + 3w+w + 3,

we group it so that it looks like (w^2+w) + (3w+3)

Then we factor so that is w(w+1) + 3(w+1).

Distributive property(converse) allows us to simplify to (w+3)(w+1)

Answer:

The man traveled 20km by train.

Step-by-step explanation:

If x is the distance he traveled by train, you can write this equation to represent the situation:

[tex]10+x+2x=70[/tex]

Then, you can simply solve for x:

[tex]10+3x=70\\3x=60\\x=20[/tex]

The man traveled 20km by train.

[tex]10+(20)+2(20)=70\\10+20+40=70\\70=70[/tex]

The equation that represents the function is [tex]y = 2(\frac 12)^x[/tex]  

The graph is an exponential function, and it passes through the points:

[tex](x,y) = (1,1)\ (0,2)[/tex]

An exponential function is represented with:

[tex]y = ab^x[/tex]

At (0,2), we have:

[tex]ab^0 = 2[/tex]

This gives

[tex]a(1) = 2[/tex]

[tex]a = 2[/tex]

At (1,1), we have:

[tex]ab^1 = 1[/tex]

[tex]ab = 1[/tex]

Substitute 2 for (a)

[tex]2b = 1[/tex]

Divide both sides by 2

[tex]b = \frac 12[/tex]

Substitute values for a and b in [tex]y = ab^x[/tex]

[tex]y = 2(\frac 12)^x[/tex]

Hence, the equation that represents the function is [tex]y = 2(\frac 12)^x[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Yes, a cube can be formed by stacking polygons. If we stack squares one upon another, then the resulting 3-D figure would be a cube.

b) Yes, a cone that does not include the point can be made by stacking disc. If we stack discs such that the discs are arranges in descending order then the resultant 3-D figure would be a cone that does not include a point.

c) Yes, a pyramid can be formed by stacking polygons.

If we stack squares such that they are arranged in descending order of their side length and stacked by a point on the top. Then the resultant figure would be a  pyramid that includes a vertex.

Answer:

  (3, -6)

Step-by-step explanation:

The orthocenter is the point of intersection of the altitudes of the triangle. That is, each altitude goes through the orthocenter. Hence, the line from any given vertex through the orthocenter is perpendicular to the opposite side.

The attached figure shows the given points labeled A and B. Point A lies on the x-axis, as does the orthocenter, so the side opposite will be a vertical line (perpendicular to the x-axis).

The remaining side of the triangle will be perpendicular to the line from B through the origin. The line through B has slope 4/3, so the line containing side AC will have slope -3/4 and will go through point A. Its point-slope equation will be ...

  y -0 = -3/4(x +5)

We already know the x-coordinate of vertex C is the same as that of vertex B, so is x=3. Using this in the equation for side AC, we find the y-coordinate to be ...

  y = -3/4(3 +5) = -6

The coordinates of point C, the third vertex, are (3, -6).

  y -k = m(x -h) . . . . . line with slope m through point (h, k)

Answer:

y = -2/5 x +1

Step-by-step explanation:

We know two points on the line (-5,3) and ( 5,-1)

We  can find the slope using the slope formula

m = ( y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)

m = ( -1 -3)/( 5- -5)

   = (-1-3)/ (-5+5)

  -4/10

 =-2/5

Using the slope intercept form of the the lint

y = mx+b  where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

y = -2/5 x+b

Using one of the point and substitute in for x and y

3 = -2/5 (-5) +b

3 = 2 +b

1 = b

y = -2/5 x +1

The equation of the line passes through the points (0, 1) and (5, -1) will be;

[tex]y = - \dfrac{2}{5}x + 1[/tex]

The equation of a line in point-slope form passing through the points

(x₁ , y₁) and (x₂, y₂) with slope m is defined as;

⇒ y - y₁ = m (x - x₁)

Where, m = (y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁)

Given that;

Two points on the line are (0, 1) and (5, -1).

Now,

Since, The equation of line passes through the points (0, 1) and (5, -1).

So, We need to find the slope of the line.

Hence, the Slope of the line is,

m = (y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁)

m = (- 1 - 1) / (5 - 0)

m = - 2 / 5

Thus, The equation of the line with slope - 2/5 is,

[tex]y - 1 = - \dfrac{2}{5} (x - 0)[/tex]

[tex]y - 1 = - \dfrac{2}{5}x[/tex]

[tex]y = - \dfrac{2}{5}x + 1[/tex]

Therefore, The equation of a line is [tex]y = - \dfrac{2}{5}x + 1[/tex].
