The sum of three numbers is 78. The third number is 7 more than the first. The second number is 3 times the third. What are the numbers?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

10+51+17=78

Step-by-step explanation:

Alright, so at first I just took a random number and kept on working it out until I got the exact answer as 78. Finally, i got the third number as 17. Now, i know the third number is 7 more than the first so I have to subtract 17 and 7, 17-7=10. So the first number is 10. Ok, now i know that the second number is 3 times the third number (17) so you should multiply, 17x3=51. 51 is the 2nd number.

1st number=10

2nd number=51

3rd number=17

Add them, 10+51+17=78.

Answer 2

Answer:

First number = 10Second number = 51Third number = 17

Step-by-step explanation:

In the question we are given ,

Sum of three numbers is 78

Third no. is 7 more than first

Second no. is 3 times third

So , we are assuming that ,

Let first no. be x

Third no. be x + 7 ( because in question it is given that third number is 7 more than the first number ) .

Second no. be 3 ( x + 7 ) ( because in the question it is given that second no. is three times the third )

We are finding the solution by adding all these term and equating it with 78 because sum of these three numbers is equal to 78 .

Here we go ,

[tex] \longrightarrow \: x + 3(x + 7) + x + 7 = 78[/tex]

Step 1 : Solving the bracket part :

[tex] \longrightarrow \: \blue{x }+ \blue{ 3x} + \red{21} + \blue{ x} + \red{7 }= 78[/tex]

Step 2 : Adding like terms :

[tex] \longrightarrow \:5x + 28 = 78[/tex]

Step 3 : Transposing 28 to right hand side :

[tex] \longrightarrow \:5x = \green{78} - \green{28}[/tex]

Step 4 : Subtracting 28 from 78 :

[tex] \longrightarrow \:5x = 50[/tex]

Step 5 : Transposing 5 to right hand side :

[tex] \longrightarrow \:x = \cancel \frac{50}{5} [/tex]

Step 6 ; Cancelling 50 with 5 :

[tex] \longrightarrow \: \purple{\boxed{x = 10}}[/tex]

Therefore value of ,

x [ first number ] = 10

3(x + 7 ) [ second number ] = 51

x + 7 [ third number ] = 17

Verification :

We are verifying our answer by adding the three numbers and it must be equal to 78 .

10 + 51 + 17 = 78

61 + 17 = 78

78 = 78

L.H.S = R.H.S

Hence , Verified.

Therefore , our answer is correct .

Twelve identical cylindrical pop cans are placed in a box. If sand fills the space between the pop cans and the cans and the sides of the box, what volume of sand is needed?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I don't see any information on dimensions of the cans or box, so I'll assume the question wants a general solution.

Three steps will result in the volume of sand required to fill the remaining space in the box.

1.  Calculate the volume of a can using the equation for the volume of a cylinder:  Vol = πr²h

2.  Multiply the can volume by 12.  This will give the total volume of the 12 cans in the box.

3.  Calculate the volume of the box:  Volume = (Base)(Width)(Height)

[Make sure the units are the same as those used in calculating the can volume.  E.g., if the can is calculated with cm as the measue, the box dimensions must also be cm]

4.  Subtract the volume of the12 cans (from step 2) from the volume of the box.

The result from 4 will be the volume of sand required to fill the box containing 12 cans.  

I'm not clear why filling the box with sand is important, but perhaps it will absorb any soda released from cans broken when the heavy box is dropped by the person shocked that 12 cans of pop could be so heavy.

So if we add them we get:

Now to put it into standard form we just put a decimal to the right of the first number and see how many times we need to move right in order to make the number. In this case it's 3 times so we tack on × [tex]10^3[/tex]

The shorter leg of a right triangle has a measure of x + 5. The longer leg is one less than three times the length of the shorter leg. The hypotenuse is thirteen more than two times the shorter leg. The area of the triangle, A, is 2.5 times the magnitude of the perimeter.
Create a system of equations to model the situation above. Determine if there are any solutions, and, if possible, whether or not they are viable.

How many total possible solutions of the form (x, A) are there for this situation?

How many total viable solutions of the form (x, A) are there for this situation?

Answers

Answer:

Given:

[tex]\textsf{Shorter leg}=(x+5)[/tex][tex]\textsf{Longer leg}=3(x+5)-1[/tex][tex]\textsf{Hypotenuse}=2(x+5)+13[/tex][tex]\sf A=2.5P\quad \textsf{(where A is area and P is perimeter)}[/tex]

[tex]\begin{aligned} \textsf{Perimeter} & =\textsf{shorter leg + longer leg + hypotenuse}\\ & = (x+5)+[3(x+5)-1]+[2(x+5)+13]\\ & = x+5+3x+15-1+2x+10+13\\ & = 6x+42\end{aligned}[/tex]

[tex]\begin{aligned} \textsf{Area} & =\dfrac12\textsf{(shorter leg)(longer leg)}\\ & =\dfrac12(x+5)[3(x+5)-1]}\\ & =\dfrac12(x+5)(3x+14)\\ & = \dfrac12(3x^2+29x+70)\\ & = \dfrac32x^2+\dfrac{29}{2}x+35 \end{aligned}[/tex]

[tex]\begin{aligned} \textsf{Area} & =2.5 \sf (Perimeter)\\ \implies \dfrac32x^2+\dfrac{29}{2}x+35 & =\dfrac52(6x+42)\\ 3x^2+29x+70 & =5(6x+42)\\ 3x^2+29x+70 & =30x+210\\ 3x^2 -x-140 & =0\\ 3x^2-21x+20x-140 & =0\\ 3x(x-7)+20(x-7) &=0\\ (x-7)(3x+20)& =0\end{aligned}[/tex]

Therefore:

[tex](x-7)=0 \implies x=7[/tex]

[tex](3x+20)=0 \implies x=-\dfrac{20}{3}[/tex]

[tex]x=-\dfrac{20}{3}[/tex] is not a viable solution as when inputting this into the formula for the shorter leg, it gives a negative value:

[tex]\textsf{Shorter leg}=-\dfrac{20}{3}+5=-\dfrac53[/tex]

As distance cannot be negative, this is not a viable solution.

When x = 7:

[tex]\textsf{Shorter leg}=7+5=12[/tex]

[tex]\textsf{Longer leg}=3(7+5)-1=35[/tex]

[tex]\textsf{Hypotenuse}=2(x+5)+13=37[/tex]

[tex]\textsf{Perimeter}=6(7)+42=84[/tex]

[tex]\textsf{Area} & =\dfrac32(7)^2+\dfrac{29}{2}(7)+35=210[/tex]

Therefore, there is one viable solution.  This solution in the form (x, A) is  (7, 210)

How to solve 3x - 1/2 = 8 1/2 please no links and do it step by step

Answers

Answer:

[tex]x=\frac{3}{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1.  Put each term in [tex]3x-\frac{1}{2}[/tex] over the common denominator 2.

[tex]\frac{6x}{2}-\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Therefore we have [tex](\frac{6x}{2}-\frac{1}{2})=4[/tex]

Step 2.

Combine [tex]\frac{6x}{2}-\frac{1}{2}[/tex] into a single fraction.

[tex]\frac{6x-1}{2}[/tex]  

Therefore we have [tex](\frac{1}{2}(6x-1))=4[/tex]  or [tex]\frac{6x-1}{2}=4[/tex]

Step 3.

Multiply both sides by a constant to simplify the equation.

Multiply both sides of [tex]\frac{6x-1}{2}=4[/tex]  by 2:

[tex]\frac{2*(6x-1)}{2}=4*2[/tex]

Step 4.

Cancel the common terms in the numerator and denominator of   [tex]\frac{2*(6x-1)}{2}[/tex]

Then we get [tex]\frac{2}{2}*(6x-1)[/tex]  which simplifies to [tex](6x-1)[/tex]

So all together we have [tex](6x-1)=2*4[/tex]

Step 5.

Multiply 2 and 4 together and remove the parenthesis.

[tex]6x-1=8[/tex]

Step 6.

Isolate terms with the variable x to the left hand side.

So add 1 to both sides:

[tex]6x+(1-1)=8+1[/tex]

Evaluate   [tex]1-1=0[/tex]  which cancels out

Step 7.

Add the like terms on the right side:

[tex]6x=9[/tex]

Step 8.

Divide both sides by a constant to simplify the equation.

Divide both sides of [tex]6x=9[/tex]  by 6.

[tex]\frac{6x}{6} =\frac{9}{6}[/tex]

Any non-zero number divided by itself is 1.

[tex]x=\frac{9}{6}[/tex]  which simplifies to [tex]x=\frac{3}{2}[/tex]

The value of a is 7.

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate mean, add all of the numbers in the set and divide by the number of terms in said set. There are 7 numbers in this set, so the equation can be set up as follows.

(4 + 10 + 3 + 6 + a + 9 + 10)/7 = 7

Simplify the terms on the top.

(42 + a)/7 = 7

Multiply both sides by 7.

42 + a = 49

Subtract both sides by 42.

a = 7.

Proof:

(4 + 10 + 3 + 6 + a + 9 + 10)/7 = 7

Substitute variable.

(4 + 10 + 3 + 6 + 7 + 9 + 10)/7 = 7
