Lydia buys 5 pounds of apples and 3 pounds of bananas for a total of $8.50. Ari buys 3 pounds of apples and 2 pounds of bananas for a total of $5.25. This system of equations represents the situation, where x is the cost per pound of apples, and y is the cost per pound of bananas.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 1.25

y = 0.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Let $x be the cost per pound of apples

Let $y be the cost per pound of bananas

5x + 3y = 8.5  --- (1)

3x + 2y = 5.25  --- (2)

From (1),

3x + 1.8y = 5.1  --- (1a)

Subtract (1a) from (2),

(3x + 2y) - (3x + 1.8y) = 5.25 - 5.1

3x - 3x + 2y - 1.8y = 0.15

0.2y = 0.15

y = 0.15 / 0.2 = 0.75

x = [ 5.25 - 2(0.75) ] / 3 = 1.25

two square regions have an area of 125 and 5 how many yards of fencing is needed to enclose? ( assume regions fenced separately)

Answers

Answer:

[tex]24\sqrt{5}\ yards[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A1 be the area of one square and A2 be the area of second square

So,

A1 = s^2

where s is side of square

[tex]s^2=125\\\sqrt{s^2}=\sqrt{125}\\s=\sqrt{25*5}\\ s= \sqrt{5^2 * 5}\\ s= 5\sqrt{5}[/tex]

So side of one square is [tex]5\sqrt{5}[/tex]

To calculate the length of fence we need to find the perimeter of the square

So,

P1 = 4 * s

[tex]=4*5\sqrt{5} \\=20\sqrt{5}[/tex]

For second square:

[tex]A_2=s^2\\5=s^2\\\sqrt{s^2}=5\\{s}=\sqrt{5}[/tex]

The perimeter will be:

[tex]P_2 = 4*s\\=4 * \sqrt{5} \\=4\sqrt{5}[/tex]

So the total fence will be: P1+P2

[tex]= 20\sqrt{5}+4\sqrt{5} \\= 24\sqrt{5}\ yards[/tex]

A $0.48
B $2.19
C $4.75
D $474.94​

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

75.99 ×.0625=4.749

75.99+4.75(because I rounded)=

$80.74 total cost incase you have another step

75.99 ×.0625 = 4.749

75.99 + 4.75 = $80.74

$80.74 - $75.99 = $4.75

A company makes globes with a radius of 11 inches. The material to make the globes costs the company $0.04 per square inch. To the nearest cent, how much does the company pay for the material to create one globe? Use 3.14 for pi.

Recall the formula SA=4 pi r^2.
$11.05
$60.79
$243.16
$607.90

Answers

Answer:

One globe costs $60.79

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the globe is

A = 4.π.r^2

Since the radius is 11 inches

A = 4*(3.14)*(11 in)^2 = 1519.76 in^2

We apply a rule of three

1 in^2  --------------------------------- $0.04

1519.76 in^2 ------------------------- x

x = (1519.76 in^2/ 1 in^2)*$0.04

x = (1519.76)*$0.04

x = $60.79

x ≈ $60.8

Answer: Second Option

$60.79

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem let's suppose that the balloons are spherical

Then the surface area of a sphere is given by the formula:

[tex]SA=4\pi r^2[/tex]

Where r is the radius of the sphere

In this case we know that the radius of each globes is 11 inches, then:

[tex]SA=4(3.14) (11)^2[/tex]

[tex]SA=4(3.14)(121)[/tex]

[tex]SA=1519.76\ in^2[/tex]

If the material to make globes costs $ 0.04 per square inch then the cost of a globes is:

[tex]C=1519.76*0.04[/tex]

[tex]C=\$60.79[/tex]

The area of a circle with radius r is given by A = π r2. Find the area of a circle with radius 7 centimeters. Use 3.14 for π.

Answers

Answer:

The area is 0.015m²

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one

Given that the expression for area of the circle is A = π r²

Step two

Now our raduis r= 7cm - - - meter =7/100= 0.07

And Pi = 3.142

Step three

Substituting r in the formula for area we have

A= 3.142*(0.07)²

A=3.142*0.0049

A= 0.015m²

Solve for
5(x + 1) = 4x + 8)

Answers

Reorder the terms:
5(1 + x) = 4(x + 8)
(1 * 5 + x * 5) = 4(x + 8)
(5 + 5x) = 4(x + 8)

Reorder the terms:
5 + 5x = 4(8 + x)
5 + 5x = (8 * 4 + x * 4)
5 + 5x = (32 + 4x)

Solving
5 + 5x = 32 + 4x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-4x' to each side of the equation.
5 + 5x + -4x = 32 + 4x + -4x

Combine like terms: 5x + -4x = 1x
5 + 1x = 32 + 4x + -4x

Combine like terms: 4x + -4x = 0
5 + 1x = 32 + 0
5 + 1x = 32

Add '-5' to each side of the equation.
5 + -5 + 1x = 32 + -5

Combine like terms: 5 + -5 = 0
0 + 1x = 32 + -5
1x = 32 + -5

Combine like terms: 32 + -5 = 27
1x = 27

Divide each side by '1'.
x = 27

Simplifying
x = 27

Answer:

x =3

Step-by-step explanation:

5(x + 1) = 4x + 8

Distribute the 5

5x+5 = 4x+8

Subtract 4x from each side

5x-4x+5 = 4x-4x+8

x+5 =8

Subtract 5 from each side

x+5-5 = 8-5

x =3

For this case we have by definition of angles between secant lines that:

Also, the angle between T and V is equal to the angle between S and W.

Returning to the question, we have to:

[tex]x + 40 = 3x[/tex]

We must know the value of "x":

Subtracting 3x on both sides of the equation we have:

[tex]x-3x + 40 = 0[/tex]

Subtracting 40 from both sides of the equation:

ivanna's earnings vary directly with the number of hours she works. suppose that she worked 7 hours yesterday and earned $77. if she earned $99 today, how many hours did she work today​

Answers

Answer:

9 hr

Step-by-step explanation:

vary directly means you should think about a constant being multiply to one variable to get another variable.

So we have E=kH

where E=earnings and H=hours and k is the constant of proportionality

So they give us when H=7 we have E=77 giving us 77=k(7) which means the constant of proportionality is 11

So that means no matter what the E and H are k is 11

So we have the equation is E=11H

Replace E with 99 and solve for H

99=11(H)

So H=9

Sara sells beaded necklaces she makes a profit of 4 dollars pn every neclace she sells which table represents the profit sara makes

Answers

if you multiply the number of necklaces sold by 4 for all 4 values in the first column of the table then you should get the value in the second column of the table

Table {4} represents the correct function that represents the profit function.

What is function?

A function is a relation between a dependent and independent variable. We can write the examples of function as -

y = f(x) = ax + b

y = f(x, y, z) = ax + by + cz

Given is that Sara sells beaded necklaces she makes a profit of 4 dollars every necklace she sells.

Assume that she sells {x} necklaces in total. So, we can write the function for Sara's profit as -

y = 4x

We can see that table {4} is represented by the profit function.

Therefore, table {4} represents the correct function that represents the profit function.

Kevin is responsible for delivering sacks of grains to a grocery shop on the tenth floor of a departmental store. Each sack weighs 364 pounds and Kevin weighs 150 pounds. The capacity of the elevator is 2,000 pounds.


If six sacks are to be taken at a time, what should be the weight of each sack?

Answers

Final answer:

Kevin can safely take sacks weighing up to 308.33 pounds each in the elevator, provided he takes six sacks at a time and the elevator's capacity is 2,000 pounds with Kevin weighing 150 pounds.

Explanation:

The student's question is asking for the maximum weight of each sack of grain that Kevin can deliver on the elevator, given the elevator's weight capacity and the additional weight of Kevin himself. To answer this question, we need to consider the weight that the elevator can hold minus Kevin's weight, and then determine how much weight is left for the sacks of grain.

The elevator has a capacity of 2,000 pounds, and Kevin weighs 150 pounds. This means the total weight that the elevator can carry in addition to Kevin is:

2000 pounds (elevator capacity) - 150 pounds (Kevin's weight) = 1850 pounds (available for sacks)

If Kevin needs to deliver six sacks at a time, we can divide the total available weight by six to find the maximum weight for each sack:

1850 pounds / 6 sacks = approximately 308.33 pounds per sack

Therefore, the weight of each sack must be 308.33 pounds or less for Kevin to safely use the elevator without exceeding its capacity.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Susan pays $0.3 per $100

For $483000, she pays $1449 insurance annually : Calculation shown below

483000/100 x 0.3 = $1449

Monthly instalments of the insurance premium for 12 months :

annual insurance premium/ 12 months

1449/12 = $120.75

Monthly mortgage payments = $2128

Monthly total payments = monthly mortgage payments + monthly insurance premium instalment.

                                       = 1449 + 120.75

                                       = $2248.75
