Kinyua spent 1/4 of his net salary on school fees. He spent 1/4 of the remainder on electricity and water bills. He spent 1/9 of what remained on transport. If he finally has she. 8400 calculate his total salary

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Let his net salary = x.

He spent 1/4th of x on School fees

Remainder = 1-1/4 = 3x/4

He spent 1/4th THE REMAINDER on Electricity and Water Bils

1/4 of remainder (3x/4) = 1/4 x 3x/4 = 3x/16

He spent 3x/16 of this salary on Electricity and Water Bills... We should subtract this to know our current value or cash at hand

New Remainder = 3x/4 - 3x/16

= 9x/16.

He spent 1/9th OF WHAT REMAINED ON TRANSPORT.

1/9 x 9x/16

=x/16

New Remainder

= 9x/16 - x/16

=x/2.

If he finally had 8,400

Then

x/2=8,400

x=2x8,400

x= 16,800.

This answer is Correct. You can check it by using our x as 16,800 and solve from the start... You'll arrive at 8400 as your remainder. Have a great day!!!

∠QRS = 72°

Step-by-step explanation:

∠R + ∠Q = 180°  (supplementary angles)

18x + 12x = 180

30x = 180

x = 6

∠R = 12x = 72°  ∠Q = 18x = 108°

Solve for 43.

Answers

Answer:

∠3 = 81

Step-by-step explanation:

Interior angles in a triangle add up to equal 180°

Hence, 58° + 41° + ∠3 = 180

58 + 41 = 99

99 + ∠3 = 180

* subtract 99 from each side *

99 - 99 cancels out

180 - 99 = 81

we're left with ∠3 = 81°

Gunther's starting weight is 248 pounds, and he plans to lose 2 pounds each week. Use a linear equation to determine Gunther's weight after 10 weeks. What linear equation??

NEED HELP ASAP DUE TODAY!!! PLEASE AND THANK YOU :)

Answers

Answer:

......

Step-by-step explanation:

With these types of problems, it's best to label the unknowns and figure out an equation for what we want to find. Here, we're interested in weight in pounds, which I'll call W, as a function of the number of weeks that have gone by, which I'll call n. So if we can get an equation that relates W to n, we can answer the question of "how many weeks to reach 175 pounds?" by plugging in W = 175 to our equation and solving to find out what value of n gives us that.

Suppose Alex weighs P pounds at the start of his diet. We don't know what P is yet, but we'll aim to find its value later with the information the question gives us.

After 1 week, Alex will lose 2 pounds and will weigh P - 2 pounds

After 2 weeks, Alex will lose another 2 pounds and weigh (P - 2) - 2 = P - 4 pounds

After 3 weeks, Alex will weigh (P - 4) - 2 = P - 6 pounds

You can see the pattern here: after every week, knock off 2 pounds. So in general after n weeks, Alex will lose 2n pounds from his start weight, and he will weigh P - 2n

That gives the equation W = P - 2n, or equivalently

W = -2n + P

We can recognize this as a linear equation, which takes the form y = mx + b, where:

- x is the independent variable,

- y is the dependent variable (the thing that changes as a function of x),

- m is the slope (how much y changes for every unit change in x), and

- b is the y-intercept (that is, the value of y when x = 0).

In our equation W = -2n + P, the number of weeks n is the independent variable, weight W is the dependent variable (it varies as a function of the number of weeks), -2 is the slope (because Alex weight 2 pounds less for every week that goes by), and P - whose value we don't know yet - is Alex's starting weight (i.e., the value of W when n = 0).

To find the value of P, we can use the information in the question that after 6 weeks, Alex weighs 205 pounds. In other words, when n = 6, W = 205. Plug that into our equation and get:

205 = P - 2*6

We can solve that for P:

205 = P - 12

Add 12 to both sides:

P = 205 + 12 = 227

So Alex weighs 227 pounds when he starts the diet, and we have

W = -2n + 227

This is the linear equation the question is asking for.

To find how many weeks Alex needs to reach his target weight of 175 pounds, set W = 175 in the equation and solve it for n:

175 = -2n + 227

Move the -2n over to the other side:

2n + 175 = 227

Subtract 175 from both sides:

2n = 227 - 175

2n = 52

Divide both sides by 2:

2n/2 = 52/2

n = 26

So if he keeps losing 2 pounds per week, Alex will reach his target weight of 175 pounds after 26 weeks.

Of course in real life weight loss doesn't necessarily work like in this question (usually, the rate of loss slows down closer to the goal and the body adapts to eating less). But for the purposes of this question and with this simple linear model of weight loss, Alex would reach his goal weight in half a year.

Given f(x) = x^2 + 2 and g(x) = 2 – x, find a simplified expression for f(2x) + g(3x).

Answers

Answer:

f(2)+g(3) = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

f(x) = x² + 2

g(x) = 2-x

We need to find the value of f(2)+g(3).

f(2) = 2² + 2 = 6

g(3) = 2 – 3 = -1

So,

f(2)+g(3) = 6+(-1)

= 5

Hence, the value of the given expression is 5.

Answers

Answer:

10,353m³

Step-by-step explanation:

We can look for the volume of the warehouse since we are not told what to look for

Volume of the warehouse = length * width * height

Given

Length  = 120m

Width = 20 3/10 = 203/20 m

Height = 8 1/2m = 17/2 m

Volume of the warehouse = 120 * 203/20 * 17/2

Volume of the warehouse = 6 * 203 * 17/2

Volume of the warehouse = 3 * 203 * 17

Volume of the warehouse = 10,353 cubic metres

Hence the volume of the warehouse is 10,353m³
