The basketball team sold t-shirts and hats as a fundraiser they sold a total of 23 items and made a profit of $246 they made a profit of $10 for every t shirt they sold and $12 for every hat they sold dertermine the number of t shirts and the number of hats the basketball team sold

Answers

The basketball team sold a total of 23 items (t-shirts and hats) and made $246. By setting up and solving a system of equations, it was determined that they sold 15 t-shirts and 8 hats.

To determine the number of t-shirts and hats sold by a basketball team for a fundraiser, given that they sold a total of 23 items and made a profit of $246, with a profit of $10 per t-shirt and $12 per hat sold. To solve this problem, we can set up a system of linear equations and solve for the two variables representing the number of t-shirts (T) and the number of hats (H).

Let T represent the number of t-shirts and H represent the number of hats.

We know that T + H = 23 (since 23 items were sold in total).

We also know that the profit from t-shirts is $10 per t-shirt, and the profit from hats is $12 per hat. Therefore, 10T + 12H = $246 (total profit).

We can now set up the equations:
T + H = 23
10T + 12H = $246

From the first equation, we can express H in terms of T: H = 23 - T.

Substitute H = 23 - T into the second equation:
10T + 12(23 - T) = $246

Simplify and solve for T:
10T + 276 - 12T = $246
-2T + 276 = $246
-2T = $246 - 276
-2T = -$30
T = 15 (number of t-shirts sold)

Now, we can find the number of hats by substituting T back into H = 23 - T. Since T is 15, H = 23 - 15 = 8 (number of hats sold).

Therefore, the basketball team sold 15 t-shirts and 8 hats.

Answer:

[tex]x^{\frac{5}{12} }[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

In the question given we use the law of exponents;

[tex](a^{b})^{c} = a^{bc}[/tex]

If a base a is raised to a power b and the entire expression raised to a power c, the resulting expression is simply equal to the base a raised to the product of the two exponents b and c, that is bc.

In the case given,

a = x

b = 5/8

c = 2/3

To simplify the expression we simply multiply b and c;

bc = 5/8 * 2/3

     = 5/12

The simplified expression is thus;

The correct answer is ((x⁵/⁸)²/³) = x⁵/¹²

Step-by-step explanation:

Points to remember:-

Identity

(xᵃ)ᵇ = xᵃᵇ

Here it is given that, ((x⁵/⁸)²/³)

To find the value of ((x⁵/⁸)²/³)

(5/8) * (2/3) =  (5 * 2) /(8 * 3) = 10/24 = 5/12

By using identity (xᵃ)ᵇ = xᵃᵇ we can write,

((x⁵/⁸)²/³) = x⁽⁵/⁸⁾ˣ⁽²/³⁾

= x⁵/¹²    

Therefore the correct answer is ((x⁵/⁸)²/³) = x⁵/¹²

A parabola opening upward shifted 7 units rights and 4 units down

Answers

Answer:

y + 4 = a(x - 7)^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard vertex form of a parabola with vertex at (h, k) is

y - k = a(x - h)^2

and if we start with the simplest case, y = a(x)^2 and translate its graph 7 units to the right and 4 units down, we get   y - {-4] = a(x - 7)^2, or

y + 4 = a(x - 7)^2

The answer is y + 4 = a(x - 7)^2.

The standard vertex form of a parabola with vertex at (h, k) is

y - k = a(x - h)^2

And if we start with the simplest case,

y = a(x)^2 and

translate it Into 7 units to the right and 4 units down,

we get  

y - {-4] = a(x - 7)^2

then we get the equation is y + 4 = a(x - 7)^2.

Answer: Option B

[tex]f(g(x)) = 4x^2 -41x + 105[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We have 2 functions

[tex]f(x) = 4x -\sqrt{x}[/tex]

[tex]g(x) = (x-5)^2[/tex]

We must find [tex]f(g(x))[/tex]

To find this composite function enter the function g(x) within the function f(x) as follows

[tex]f(g(x)) = 4(g(x)) -\sqrt{(g(x))}[/tex]

[tex]f(g(x)) = 4(x-5)^2 -\sqrt{(x-5)^2}[/tex]

By definition [tex]\sqrt{a^2} = |a|[/tex]

So

[tex]f(g(x)) = 4(x-5)^2 -|x-5|[/tex]

Since x is greater than 5 then the expression [tex](x-5)> 0[/tex].

Therefore we can eliminate the absolute value bars

[tex]f(g(x)) = 4(x-5)^2 -(x-5)[/tex]

[tex]f(g(x)) = 4(x^2 -10x + 25) -(x-5)[/tex]

[tex]f(g(x)) = 4x^2 -40x + 100 -x+5[/tex]

[tex]f(g(x)) = 4x^2 -41x + 105[/tex]

C.
The table represents a geometric sequence because the successive y-values have a common ratio of 0.4.
D.
The table represents an arithmetic sequence because the successive y-values have a common difference of 4.2.

Answers

Answer:

A.  

The table represents a geometric sequence because the successive y-values have a common ratio of -2.4.

Step-by-step explanation:

A geometric sequence, with a first term a and common ratio r, is generally represented as;

[tex]a,ar,ar^{2},ar^{3},ar^{4},............ar^{n}[/tex]

The first term refers to the first number that appears in the sequence. The common ratio is the constant that multiplies a preceding value to obtain the successive one. That is, to obtain [tex]ar^{2}[/tex] from [tex]ar[/tex] we multiply [tex]ar[/tex] by the common ratio r.

In the table given the y-values are as follows;

4, -9.6, 23.04, -55.296

To obtain the common ratio we simply divide each value by the preceding one;

(-9.6)/4 = -2.4

23.04/(-9.6) = -2.4

(-55.296)/23.04 = -2.4

Since the sequence of numbers has a common ratio then it qualifies to be a geometric sequence. Thus, the table represents a geometric sequence because the successive y-values have a common ratio of -2.4.

The table represents a geometric sequence because the successive y-values have a common ratio of -2.4

length x width

so

Total surface area of the composite solid is

2( 4(4) + 6(4) + 1/2(√13)(4) + 1/2(2√2)(6) ) + 6(4)

111.39 + 24

135.39

Answer:

Total area = 135 .39 square yard

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : composite figure.

To find : Find the surface area of the composite solid. Round the answer to the nearest hundredth.

Solution : We have given a composite figure with rectangle base and four triangles .

Base of two triangle  =  4 yd .

Height of two triangle = √13 yd .

Base of other two triangle  =  6 yd .

Height of other two triangle = 2√2 yd .

Area of rectangle  = length * width .

Area of rectangle  = 6 *4

Area of rectangle  = 24 square yard .

Area of all rectangle = 3 *24 = 72 square yard

Area of two square = 2( 4*4) = 32 square yard.

Area of triangle  = [tex]\frac{1}{2} base * height[/tex].

Area of triangle= [tex]\frac{1}{2} 4 *√13 [/tex].

Area of triangle = 2√13 .

Area of two triangle  = 2 * 2√13 .

Area of two triangle  = 4√13 square yard.

Area of other triangle  = [tex]\frac{1}{2} 6 * 2√2 [/tex].

Area of other triangle  = 3* 2√2

Area of other triangle  = 6√2.

Area of other two triangle  = 2 *6√2.

Area of other two triangle  = 12√2 square yard.

Total area = Area of  3 rectangle + Area of two triangle + Area of other two triangle + area of square

Total area =  72 + 4√13 +  12√2 + 32

Total area = 135 .39 square yard.

Therefore, Total area = 135 .39 square yard.

Compare the three functions below. Which has a greater period? A) y = 3cos(2x+1), B) y=5cos(4x +8), and C) y=cos(2x+4) (4.3)

Answers

Final answer:

Comparing the periods of the given cosine functions indicates that functions A) and C) both have the greatest period of π, which is longer than the period of function B), π/2.

Explanation:

To compare the periods of the given functions, let's first understand what the general form of a cosine function tells us about its period.

The general form is y = A cos(Bx + C), where A is the amplitude, B affects the period, and C is the phase shift.

The period of such a function is given by 2π / |B|.



For function A) y = 3cos(2x+1), B = 2, thus its period is π.

For function B) y=5cos(4x +8), B = 4, yielding a period of π/2.

Lastly, for function C) y=cos(2x+4) (4.3), assuming the (4.3) is an unrelated notation and focusing on the given cos component with B = 2, its period is also π.

The function with the greatest period among A, B, and C is thus A) and C), both having the same period of π, which is greater than the period of B).
