Ed takes five 100-point tests in his algebra class. He scores 87, 85 and 87 points on the first three tests. If the scores of his last two tests differ by three points and he has a 90% average on his five tests, what was his highest test score?
PLS ANSWER QUICK WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

When we take an average of something, we have to add up all the data on the somethings and then divide by the number of somethings we have. Ed takes 5 tests, and we have scores for them; we also have his current average. What we don't know for sure are 2 of the 5 test scores, but we have enough to determine what they are.

If one test has a score of x, and the other test is 3 points less than that, the score on that last test is x - 3. Putting all of that together into an average problem:

[tex]\frac{87+85+87+x+(x-3)}{5}=90[/tex] and simplfiying a bit:

[tex]\frac{256+2x}{5}=90[/tex]. Multiply both sides by 5 to get

256 + 2x = 450; subtract 256 from both sides to get

2x = 194 and divide by 2:

x = 97

The one test score was a 97 and the other one, which was 3 less than that, was a 94.

Solve for x: 9(3x+3)=10(3x+9)

Answers

Answer:

-21 =x

Step-by-step explanation:

9(3x+3)=10(3x+9)

Distribute

27x +27 = 30x +90

Subtract 27x from each side

27x+27 -27x = 30x-27x +90

27 = 3x+90

Subtract 90 from each side

27-90 = 3x +90-27

-63 = 3x

Divide by 3

-63/3 = 3x/3

-21 =x

Answer:

x = -21

Step-by-step explanation:

9(3x+3) = 10(3x+9)

27x + 27 = 30x + 90

-30x + 27x = 90 - 27

-3x = 63

x = -21

You can factor a quad or use the quadratic equation to get zeros.

In this case, its non-factorable. So you gotta use the quadratic.

Using the quadratic equation you get : x = -2 ± √-1 (√5),

Function was : x^2 + 4x + 9

For quad, I identified the following:

In the first quadrant, you start at 2, 6 and move 2units rights and 3 units down what point will you end up on?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]End = (4, 9)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Start = (2,6)[/tex]

Transformation: 2 units right and 3 units down

Required

The new point

First, we take the right translation;

When a point is translated right by 2 units, the rule is:

[tex](x,y) \to (x + 2, y)[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex](2,6) \to (2 + 2, 6)[/tex]

[tex](2,6) \to (4, 6)[/tex]

Next, we take the down translation;

When a point is translated down by 3 units, the rule is:

[tex](x,y) \to (x, y + 3)[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex](4,6) \to (4, 6+3)[/tex]

[tex](4,6) \to (4, 9)[/tex]

Hence, the endpoint is:

[tex]End = (4, 9)[/tex]

SOH-CAH-TOA

We'll use cosine since the adjacent and hypotenuse were given for our reference angle.

Cos(x) = (adj/hyp)

Cos(x) = (396/445)

[Cos(x)]cos^-1 = (396/445)(cos^-1)

x ≈ 27.1409 (Nearest ten-thousandth)

And now we find the missing side using our now known angle.

SOH-CAH-TOA

Tan(x) = (opp/adj)

Tan(27.1409) = (opp/396)

0.5126 ≈ (opp/396)

(0.5126)(396) ≈ (opp/396)(396)

Opp = 203

Missing Side = 203 ft

Here, we need to know the idea of the Law of sines.

In trigonometry, the law of sines, sine law, sine formula, or sine rule is an equation relating the lengths of the sides of a triangle (any shape) to the sines of its angles.

The Law of sines: a / sinA = b / sinB = c / sinC

If you are still confused, please refer to the attachment below for a graphical explanation.

Solve:

a = 10 m

c = 11.2 m

C = 41°

Given formula

a / sinA = c / sinC

Substitute the value into the formula

10 / sinA = 11.1 / sin (41)

Cross-multiply to simplify the equation

sinA × 11.1 = 10 · sin (41)

Divide 11.1 on both sides

sinA × 11.1 / 11.1 = 10 · sin (41) / 11.1

sinA = 10 · sin (41) / 11.1

Apply arcsine or the inverse of sine (basically representing the division of sine)

A = sin⁻¹ (10 · sin (41) / 11.1)

A = 36°

It takes 3 identical water pumps 8 hours to fill a pool. How long would it take 4 of

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We have 3 identical pumps working to fill a pool. If it takes them working  together 8 hours to fill the pool, the equation is:

[tex]\frac{1}{x}+\frac{1}{x}+\frac{1}{x}=\frac{1}{8}[/tex] and

[tex]\frac{3}{x}=\frac{1}{8}[/tex] . Cross multiply to get

x = 24, which is the number of hours it will take one pump to do the job all alone. If this be the case, and we have 4 pumps WORKING AT THE SAME TIME, filling the pool will be the number of hours it takes one pump divided by 4.

4 pumps can do the job in 6 hours.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a geometric sequence is where we multiply a factor from element to element.

a1 = $900

a2 = 981 = a1 × f = 900 ×

a3 = 1069.29 = a2 × f = a1 × f × f = s1 × f²

[tex]an = 900 \times {f}^{n - 1} [/tex]

so, now let's try and get f.

remember, 981 = 900 × f

f = 981/900 = 109/100 = 1.09

just to control, we check for s3 :

900 × (1.09)² = 900 × 1.1881 = 1069.29

correct.

so,

a13 = 900 × (1.09)¹² = 2,531.398304

s13 is then the sum of all a1, ..., a13

there is a nice formula for sums of finite sequences

s13 = 900 × (1-f¹³) / (1-f) = 900×(1-(1.09)¹³) / (1-1.09) =

= 900×(1-3.065804612) / (-0.09) =

= 900×(-2.065804612) / (-0.09) = 20,658.04612

Last year there were 45 memebers of the tennis club at Marks Middle school. This year although the number of boys increeased by 20%, the number of girls decresed by 20%, the total numbers decresed by 1. Find how many boys anf girls are in the tennis club this year.

Answers

Answer:

24 boys & 20 girls

Step-by-step explanation:

Last year:

Number of boys = x

Total number = 45

Number of girls = 45 - x

An increase of 20% is the same as multiplying by 1.2

A decrease of 10% is the same as multiplying by 0.8

This year:

New number of boys: 1.2x

New number of girls: 0.8(45 - x)

New total number = 45 - 1 = 44

1.2x + 0.8(45 - x) = 44

1.2x + 36 - 0.8x = 44

0.4x + 36 = 44

0.4x = 8

x = 20

Last year there were 20 boys and 25 girls.

This year there are 20 * 1.2 = 24 boys

and 44 - 24 = 20 girls

Answer: 24 boys & 20 girls

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is asking us to find where sin(2x + 30) has a sin of 1. If you look at the unit circle, 90 degrees has a sin of 1. Mathematically, it will be solved like this (begin by taking the inverse sin of both sides):

[tex]sin^{-1}[sin(2x+30)]=sin^{-1}(1)[/tex]

On the left, the inverse sin "undoes" or cancels the sin, leaving us with

2x + 30 = sin⁻¹(1)

The right side is asking us what angle has a sin of 1, which is 90. Sub that into the right side:

2x + 30 = 90 and

2x = 60 so

x = 30

Let each side of triangle XYZ have length s. We therefore have:

s = YZ = YQ + QR + RZ = x + 2y

Since each side of triangle X1 Y2 Z2 is 3/4 the length of the corresponding side of triangle XYZ, we have:

3/4s = X1 Z1 = X1 Q + QP + P Z1 = 2x +y.

The system of equations:

x + 2y = s

2x + y = 3/4s

Multiply the second equation by 2, then subtract the first equation.

Answers

Since the two linear relations are parallel to each other, no solution to the system exists. Hence, Samia's conclusion is correct.

How many solutions do a system of linear lines have?

A system of equations, involving two linear lines has solutions as follows:

Unique Solution: When the lines intersect, the point of intersection is the solution.No Solution: When the lines are parallel, no solution exists.Infinite Solution: When the lines coincide, then all points on the line become solutions, giving an infinite number of solutions.

How to solve the question?

In the question, we are informed that Samia created the given tables for a linear system, and concluded that no solution exists for the system.

We are asked to comment on her conclusion.

To check for her conclusion, we calculate the slopes of both the lines to check whether the relations are parallel or not, as, for parallel relations, the slopes are equal.

Slope can be calculated using the formula, m = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁), when (x₁, y₁), and (x₂, y₂) are the points on the line.

Thus, the slope for:-

Relation 1, is m₁ = (22 - 8)/(4 - (-3)) = 14/7 = 2.

Relation 2, is m₂ = (12 - (-2))/(4 - (-3)) = 14/7 = 2.

Since the slope of the two relations is equal, that is, m₁ = m₂, and they are not coinciding with each other, we can say that the two relations are parallel to each other.

Since the two linear relations are parallel to each other, no solution to the system exists. Hence, Samia's conclusion is correct.
