The answer is 8 marbles. 6*8=48. 48(ednas marbles) + 8(sam's marbles)=56.

Answer: Sam 25 marbles.

Step-by-step explanation: Given that Sam and Edna have 56 marbles together and Edna has 6 times more marbles than Sam.

We are to find the number of marbles that Sam has.

Let x and y represents the number of marbles that Sam and Edna has respectively.

Then, according to the given information, we have

$x+y=56\\\\\Rightarrow y=56-x~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(i)$

and

$y=x+6\\\\\Rightarrow 56-x=x+6\\\\\Rightarrow 2x=50\\\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{50}{2}\\\\\Rightarrow x=25.$

Thus, Sam has 25 marbles.

What is the value of s and the length of side BC if ABCD is a rhombus?

Natali5045456 [20]

Step 1

Find the value of s

we know that

In a Rhombus all sides are congruent

$AB=BC=CD=DA$

$AB=9s+29\\CD=10s-16$

equate AB and CD

$9s+29=10s-16\\$

Combine like term

$10s-9s=29+16\\$

$s=45\ units$

The answer Part a) is

the value of s is $45\ units$

Step 2

Find the value of side AB

$AB=9s+29$

substitute the value of s

$AB=9*45+29=434\ units$

Remember that the sides are congruent

$AB=BC=CD=DA$

therefore

the answer Part b) is

The length of the side BC is $434\ units$

Are the following statements true or false? 1. If F⃗ is a vector field in 3-dimensional space, and W is a solid region with boun

Masteriza [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1) True. This is because the divergence of F is 1, thus, F is a linear function. Orientation is given outward to the surface. Linear function double integrated over a surface with outward orientation gives volume enclosed by the surface.

2) True. This is primarily what the Divergence theorem is.

3) False. If F was 3/pi instead of div(F), then the statement would have been true.

4) False. The gradient of divergence can be anything. The curl of divergence of a vector function is 0, not the gradient o divergence.

5) False. While finding Divergence, derivatives are taken for different variables. Since the derivatives of constants are 0, therefore, both the vector functions F and G can be different constant parts of there components even if their divergences are equal.
