Answer:

x = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

75 (total amount of people that run) minus 40 (amount of people that lift weights and run) equals 35 (amount of people that run but don't lift weights)

120 (total amount of people surveyed) minus 65 (total amount of people that lift weights) equals 55 (total amount of people that do not lift weights)

55 (total amount of people that do not lift weights) minus 35 (total amount of people that run but don't lift weights) equals 25 (total amount of people that don't run or lift weights.

Answer:

Sample response: Yes, you can determine the number of people who do not run or lift weights by first finding that 55 people do not lift weights, and that 35 people run, but do not lift weights. Subtracting 35 from 55, you get that 20 people do not do either.

The sum of the measures of the angles of a triangle is 180. The sum of the measures of the second and third angles is five times

rusak2 [61]

Answer:

$x=30\\y=68\\z=82$

Step-by-step explanation:

x = measure of the first angle

y = measure of the second angle

z = measure of the third angle

The sum of the measures of the second and third (y+z) is five times the measure of the first angle (=5x)

$y+z=5x$

The third angle is 14 more than the second

$z=y+14$

And remember that the sum of these three angles must be equal to 180.

$x+y+z=180$

Let's take these equations

$y+z=5x\\z=y+14\\x+y+z=180$

If you take a look at the first equation, we have y+z = 5x and we have y+z in the third equation as well, we can replace that....

$x+y+z=180\\x+(y+z)=180\\x+(5x)=180$

Distribute the + sign

$x+5x=180$

Combine like terms;

$6x=180$

Divide by 6.

$x=\frac{180}{6}\\ x=30$

We have now defined that the measure of the first angle is 30º.

Let's take another equation... for example $z=y+14$

I'm going to take this one because if I replace x and z in the third equation, all I'll have left will be y.

$x+y+z=180\\30+y+(y+14)=180$

Distribute the + sign and Combine like terms;

$30+y+y+14=180\\44+2y=180\\$

Subtract 44 to isolate 2y.

$2y=180-44\\2y=136$

Now divide by 2.

$y=\frac{136}{2}\\ y=68$

We already have the value of x and y. Once again, replacing this in the third equation will leave us with z to solve for.

$x+y+z=180\\30+68+z=180\\98+z=180\\z=180-98\\z=82$

A cell phone company charges a $10 flat fee plus $0.05 per minute for minutes up to 600. For minutes over 600, the company

mash [69]

Answer:

In both the cases, the given total amount is given as:

T = 10 + 0.05 m (when minutes talked m < 600)

T = 40 + 0.15 k (when minutes talked k > 600)

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the flat fee by the phone company = $10

The charge for each minute for first 600 minutes = $0.05

The per minute cost after 600 minutes = $0.15

Let us assume the number of minutes talked = m

Case 1: when the minutes talked is less than 600 minutes.

Total Charges = Flat Fee + 0.05 x ( the minutes talked)

or, T = $10 + m ($0.05)

or T = 10 + 0.05 m (when m < 600)

Case 2: when the minutes talked is more than 600 minutes.

Let us assume the minutes talked over 600 = k minutes

Total Charges = Flat Fee + Charges for 600 minutes + 0.15 x ( the minutes talked over 600)

or, T = $10 + 600 ($0.05) + k($0.15)

or T = 10 + $30 + 0.15 k (when k > 600)

⇒ T = 40 + 0.15 k (when k > 600)

Hence, in both the cases, the given total amount is given as:

T = 10 + 0.05 m (when m < 600)

T = T = 40 + 0.15 k (when k > 600)
