Heather is making a blanket for her baby and is going to put a ribbon border around it. The blanket will be 3 feet by 5 feet. The fabric for the blanket cost $1.25 per square yard and the ribbon costs $.50 per foot. What is the approximate total cost for the blanket? A) $1.75 B) $10.08 C) $20.84 D) $26.75 E) $32.48

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The approximate total cost for the blanket is $10.08 ⇒ B

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of the area of a rectangle is A = L × W

The formula of the perimeter of a rectangle is P = 2(L + W)

where:

L is the length of the rectangleW is the width of the rectangle

∵ The baby blanket shaped a rectangle

∵ The dimensions of the blanket are 3 feet and 5 feet

- Find the area of the blanket

A = 3 × 5 = 15 feet²

- Change feet to yard because the cost is by square yard

∵ 1 foot = [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] yard

∴ 1 foot² = [tex](\frac{1}{3})^{2}=\frac{1}{9}[/tex] yard²

∴ 15 feet² = 15 × [tex](\frac{1}{9})[/tex] = [tex]\frac{5}{3}[/tex] yards²

The area of the blanket is  [tex]\frac{5}{3}[/tex] yards²

∵ The fabric cost of the blanket is $1.25 per square yard

∴ The fabric cost =  [tex]\frac{5}{3}[/tex] × 1.25

The fabric cost = 2.08333 dollars

∵ Heather is going to put a ribbon border around it

- The length of the ribbon is equal to the perimeter of the blanket

∵ P = 2(3 + 5) = 16 feet

The length of the ribbon is 16 feet

∵ The cost of the ribbon is $0.5 per foot

∴ The cost of the ribbon = 16 × 0.5

The cost of the ribbon = 8 dollars

Now add the fabric cost to the ribbon cost to find the total cost of the blanket

∵ The total cost = 2.08333 + 8

∴ The total cost = 10.08333

- Round it to the nearest cent

∴ The total cost = 10.08 dollars

The approximate total cost for the blanket is $10.08

Kittens weigh about 100 grams when born and gain 7 to 15 grams per day. If a kitten weighed 100 grams at birth and gained 8 grams per day, in how many days will the kitten triple its weight?

Answers

It would take the kitten 25 days after its birth to triple its weight.

Solution:

kitten weighed 100 grams at birth

And gained 8 grams per day

kitten needed to triple its weigh

Which means, they have to become 3 x 100 = 300 grams

Let "x" be the number of days needed to be 300 grams

Then we can say,

300 grams = 100 grams at birth + 8 grams( number of days)

[tex]300 = 100 + 8x\\\\8x = 300-100\\\\8x = 200\\\\Divide\ both\ sides\ by\ 8\\\\x = 25[/tex]

Thus it would take the kitten 25 days after its birth to triple its weight.

Ms. Willis drives to a conference in 5 hours.Due to bad weather on the return in trip home, she drives the same route in 8 hours at an average speed that is 24 miles per hour slower than her trip to the conference

Answers

Answer:

Distance = 192 km

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the distance, the distance is given by the formula:

s = vt

where s = distance

          v = average speed

          t = time taken to travel

therefore, the distance is given as

s = 24miles/hour× 8 hours

  = 192 miles.

The total distance is 192 miles.

To calculate the average speed on the first trip to the conference, divide the distance by the time like this:

s = vt

v = s/t

  = 192 miles/ 5 hours

  = 38.4 miles per hour

As you can see, the driver drove faster than she did when she was driving in bad weather.

Maya downloaded some math and science apps from Google Play. The number of math apps is 25% of the number of science apps. What percent are the math apps to the total number of apps?

Answers

20 % are the math apps in total number of apps

Solution:

Maya downloaded some math and science apps from Google Play

The number of math apps is 25% of the number of science apps

Let "x" be the number of science apps

Then, we get,

Number of math apps = 25 % of number of science apps

Number of math apps = 25 % of x

[tex]\text{Number of math apps } = \frac{25}{100} \times x[/tex]

Number of math apps = 0.25x

What percent are the math apps to the total number of apps?

Total number of apps = x + 0.25x = 1.25x

Math apps = 0.25x

We have to find the percent of math apps in total number of apps

[tex]\text{ percent of math apps} = \frac{\text{Math app}}{\text{total number of apps}} \times 100[/tex]

[tex]\text{ percent of math apps} = \frac{0.25x}{1.25x} \times 100\\\\\text{ percent of math apps} = 0.2 \times 100\\\\\text{ percent of math apps} = 20[/tex]

Thus 20 % are the math apps in total number of apps

Answers

-5x=14-15
-5x=-1
x=-1/-5
x=1/5

Check:
-5(1/5-3)=14
-5(1/5-15/5)=14
-5*-14/5=14
14=14 ✔️

Answer:

x = 1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve, simplify the equation, then isolate "x". Start with the distributive property, where you multiply the number outside the brackets with each number inside the bracket. Isolate "x" by bringing all the other numbers to the right side on the equal sign. When moving a number, do its reverse operation to the whole equation.

-5(x-3) = 14           Distribute. Multiply -5 by "x", subtract -5 times 3.

(-5)x - (-5)3 = 14           Multiply -5 and 3

(-5)x - (-15) = 14           Two negatives make a positive

(-5)x + 15 = 14           Remove brackets around -5

-5x + 15 = 14           Start isolating

-5x + 15 - 15 = 14  - 15          Subtract 15 from both sides

-5x = -1          Left side: 15 cancelled out.  Right side: 14-15 = -1

-5x/-5 = -1/-5          Divide both sides by -5.

x = 1/5         Solved for "x"

Check your answer by substituting "x" with the answer you found:

-5(x - 3) = 14  

-5(([tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex]) - 3) = 14          Change "x" to 1/5.

-5(([tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex]) - [tex](\frac{5}{5})(\frac{3}{1})[/tex]) = 14           Make 5 the common denominator

-5([tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex] - [tex]\frac{15}{5}[/tex]) = 14          Multiply the fractions across

-5([tex]\frac{1-15}{5}[/tex]) = 14        Combined the fractions on top of the same denominator

-5([tex]-\frac{14}{5}[/tex]) = 14          Simplify numerator

[tex]\frac{-5*-14}{5}[/tex] = 14          Multiply by combining into the numerator

[tex]\frac{70}{5}[/tex] = 14          Divide the top by the bottom of the fraction

14 = 14             Same answer on both sides

LS = RS          Left side equals right side

Therefore the answer is correct.

Laura created a website to create T-shirts. In the first month she put up her website she had only a single T-shirt order. Each month she got more orders. Following this function f(n)=2n-1
How many total orders did she receive over the first year?

Answers

Laura received 144 orders over the first year

Solution:

Given function is:

f(n) = 2n - 1

Where, "n" is the month

In the first month she put up her website she had only a single T-shirt order

f(1) = 2(1) - 1 = 2 - 1

f(1) = 1

There are 12 months in a year

For the second month, and third month and so on, substitute n = 2, 3 and so on

f(2) = 2(2) - 1 = 4 - 1 = 3

f(3) = 2(3) - 1 = 6 - 1 = 5

f(4) = 2(4) - 1 = 8 - 1 = 7

f(5) = 2(5) - 1 = 10 - 1 = 9

f(6) = 2(6) - 1 = 12 - 1 = 11

f(7) = 2(7) - 1 = 14 - 1 = 13

f(8) = 2(8) - 1 = 16 - 1 = 15

f(9) = 2(9) - 1 = 18 - 1 = 17

f(10) = 2(10) - 1 = 20 - 1 = 19

f(11) = 2(11) - 1 = 22 - 1 = 21

f(12) = 2(12) - 1 = 24 - 1 = 23

Thus total orders received over first year:

Total orders = 1 + 3 + 5 + 7 + 9 + 11 + 13 + 15 + 17 + 19 + 21 + 23

Total orders = 144

Thus she received 144 orders over the first year

Three pizzas and four sandwiches cost $34 three pizzas and seven sandwiches cost $41.50 write a system of equation to find the cost of one pizza

Answers

Answer:

The cost of one pizza is $8

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question;

3 pizzas + 4 sandwiches = $343 pizzas + 7 sandwiches = $41.50

We are required to determine the cost of  one Pizza

Assuming the cost of one pizza is x and the cost of one sandwich is y

Then we get the equations;

3x + 4y = $34

3x + 7y = $41.50

We can solve the equations simultaneously;

Subtracting the two equations;

3x + 4y = $34

3x + 7y = $41.50

...........................................

       -3y = -$7.5

           y = $2.5

To get x;  

      3x = $34 - 4($2.5)

       3x = $24

        x = $8

Therefore, the cost of one pizza is $8

A flower shop sells tulips and roses. The price of each tulip is the same, and the price of each rose is the same. One customer bought 7 tulips and 9 roses for $25.90. Another customer bought 4 tulips and 8 roses for $19.80. How much will it cost a customer to buy 5 tulips and 6 roses?

Answers

It will cost a customer $17.75 to buy 5 tulips and 6 roses.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

Cost of one tulip = x

Cost of one rose = y

According to given statement;

7x+9y=25.90       Eqn 1

4x+8y=19.80       Eqn 2

Multiplying Eqn 1 by 4

[tex]4(7x+9y=25.90)\\28x+36y=103.60\ \ \ Eqn\ 3[/tex]

Multiplying Eqn 2 by 7

[tex]7(4x+8y=19.80)\\28x+56y=138.60\ \ \ Eqn\ 4\\[/tex]

Subtracting Eqn 3 from Eqn 4

[tex](28x+56y)-(28x+36y)=138.60-103.60\\28x+56y-28x-36y=35\\20y=35[/tex]

Dividing both sides by 20

[tex]\frac{20y}{20}=\frac{35}{20}\\y=1.75[/tex]

Putting y=1.75 in Eqn 1

[tex]7x+9(1.75)=25.90\\7x+15.75=25.90\\7x=25.90-15.75\\7x=10.15[/tex]

Dividing both sides by 7

[tex]\frac{7x}{7}=\frac{10.15}{7}\\x=1.45[/tex]

Cost of 5 tulips and 6 roses = 5x+6y = 5(1.45)+6(1.75) = 7.25+10.50 = $17.75

It will cost a customer $17.75 to buy 5 tulips and 6 roses.

You can use system of linear equations to find the solution.

The  cost to customer to buy 5 tulips and 6 roses will be $17.75

Given that:The price of all tulips are same.The price of all roses are same.Price of 7 tulips and 9 roses is $25.90 Price of 4 tulips and 8 roses is $19.80To find:

Cost of buying 5 tulips and 6 roses.

Naming the prices:Let price of one tulip be $xLet price of one rose be $y

Forming system of equations:

By given data, we have:

7 tulip + 9 roses costs $25.90

or

[tex]7x + 9y = 25.9[/tex]

And

4 tulips + 8 roses costs $19.8

or

[tex]4x + 8y = 19.8[/tex]

Thus, we have two equations.

Using method of substitution:

From equation first, we have:

[tex]7x + 9y = 25.9\\\\ x = \dfrac{25.9-9y}{7} [/tex]

Substituting this value in second equation, we get:

[tex]4(\dfrac{25.9 - 9y}{7}) + 8y = 19.8\\\\ 103.6 - 36y + 56y = 138.6\\ 20y = 138.6 - 103.6\\\\ y = \dfrac{35}{20} = 1.75\\ [/tex]

Thus, we have:

[tex]x = \dfrac{25.9-9y}{7} \\ \\ x = \dfrac{25.9 - 15.75}{7} = 1.45[/tex]

Thus, the price of a tulip = x = $1.45

and the price of a rose = y = $1.75

Now, calculating price of 5 tulips and 6 roses:

[tex]\: \rm Total \: Cost = 5x + 6y = 5 \times 1.45 + 6 \times 1.75 = \$17.75[/tex]

Thus, the cost to a customer who buys 5 tulips and 6 roses would be $17.75

Xander needs to collect at least 120 cans for a food drive to earn community service credit. He has already collected 64 items.

Answers

Answer:

c ≥ 56   is the REQUIRED INEQUALITY.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the given  question is INCOMPLETE.

Xander needs to collect at least 120 cans for a food drive to earn community service credit. He has already collected 64 items. Choose the inequality and solution to represent the number of cans, c, that Xander must still collect.

Now, here:

The number of cans Xander needed to collect = At least 120

The number of items already collected =  64

c: the number of cans, c, that Xander must still collect.

Now, the number of cans to be collected  - Cans already collected  

=  120 - 64  = 56

So, the number of can he must collect to make a TOTAL OF AT LEAST 120 cans  =  56 cans

⇒ The number of cans to be collected ≥ 56 cans

⇒c ≥ 56 cans

A 6 inch personal pizza has 600 calories with 240 from fat. A 14 inch pizza is cut into slices. Estimate the number of calories in one slice

Answers

Answer:

175 calories.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 600 calories with 240 from fat in a 6 inch personal pizza.

If we consider the number of calories in each inch of pizza to be constant.

Then, a 14 inch pizza will have [tex]\frac{600}{6} \times 14 = 1400[/tex] calories.

Now, a standard 14 inch pizza has 8 slices and if the 14 inch pizza is cut into 8 slices then in each slice there will be [tex]\frac{1400}{8} = 175[/tex] calories. (Answer)

Final answer:

The estimated number of calories in one slice of a 14-inch pizza, assuming it is cut into 8 slices, is 408 calories.

Explanation:

In this problem, we need to work with the concept of Ratios and Proportions in order to estimate the amount of calories in one slice of a 14-inch pizza. Firstly, we may want to calculate how many 6-inch pizzas fit into a 14-inch pizza. To do this we can use the formula for the area of a circle (πr²) where the r represents the radius.

For the 6-inch pizza, the radius is 3 inches, and for the 14-inch pizza, the radius is 7 inches. Therefore, according to the formula, we have:

Area of 6-inch pizza: π * 3² = 9π

Area of 14-inch pizza: π * 7² = 49π

By dividing the area of the 14-inch pizza by the area of the 6-inch pizza, we find that around 5.44 of 6-inch pizzas fit into the 14-inch pizza:

49π/9π = 5.44

So, the 14-inch pizza has roughly 5.44 times more calories than the 6-inch pizza, meaning it would have 600 calories * 5.44 = 3264 calories.

If you split the pizza into 8 slices, each slice of pizza would therefore have 3264 calories / 8 slices = 408 calories.

The formula P = 0.62x2 - 0.043x + 3 models the approximate population P, in thousands, for a species of fish in a local pond, x years after 1997. During what year will the population reach 42,336 fish?

Answers

Answer:

The population reaches 42,336 fish in 2258

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

[tex]P = 0.62x^2 - 0.043x + 3[/tex]

To Find:

Time taken  to reach 42,336 = ?

Solution:

According to the question  x is the number of years after which the population .

Then

[tex]42336 = 0.62x^2 - 0.043x + 3[/tex]

[tex]0 = 0.62x^2 - 0.043x + 3- 42333[/tex]

[tex]0.62x^2 - 0.043x -42333[/tex] = 0

Solving using quadratic formula

[tex]x =\frac{ -b\pm \sqrt{b^2 -4ac}}{2a}[/tex]

[tex]x =\frac{ -(-0.043)\pm \sqrt{(-0.043) -4(0.62)(42333)}}{2(42333)}[/tex]

[tex]x =\frac{ -(-0.043)\pm \sqrt{(0.001849) -0.10664}}{84666}[/tex]

x=261.337                    x=−261.268

Neglecting the   negative value we get

x = 261.337

x =  261 approx

261 years after  1997  =  2258

Final answer:

To find the year when the population reaches 42,336 fish, solve the quadratic equation P = 42.336 by factoring, completing the square, or the quadratic formula.

Explanation:

To find the year when the population reaches 42,336 fish, we need to solve the equation P = 42.336.

First, rewrite the equation as a quadratic equation: 0.62x^2 - 0.043x + 3 = 42.336.

Then, solve the quadratic equation using factoring, completing the square, or the quadratic formula. The solution will give you the value of x, which represents the number of years since 1997. Add this value to 1997 to find the year when the population will reach 42,336 fish.
