ray bought 5 lemons and 3 limes for $7.20. Lia bought 4 lemons and 6 limes for the same price. How much would it cost to buy 1 lemon and 1 lime?

Answers

Answer 1
5x+3y=7.2--->-2(5x+3y)=7.2*-2--->-10x-6y=-14.4
4x+6y=7.2--->4x+6y=7.2------------>4x+6y=7.2

-6x=-7.2---->x=7.2/6 or 1.27
4(1.27)+6y=7.2---->5.08+6y=7.2----> 6y=2.12
y=.35
x=lemons  y=limes
Answer 2

Answer: The cost of 1 lemon is $1.2 and the cost of 1 lime is $0.4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the cost of 1 lemon and y be the cost of 1 lime.

Then for Ray, the equation representing total price will be :-

[tex]5x+3y=7.20[/tex]................................(1)

For Lia, the equation representing total price will be :-

[tex]4x+6y=7.20[/tex]..................................(2)

Dividing 2 on the both sides of equation (2), we get

[tex]2x+3y=3.60[/tex]...............................(3)

Subtracting (3) from (1), we get

[tex]3x=3.6\\\\\Rightarrow x=1.2[/tex]

Substitute value of x in (3), we get

[tex]2(1.2)+3y=3.6\\\\\Rightarrow2.4+3y=3.6\\\\\Rightarrow3y=1.2\\\\\Rightarrow y=0.4[/tex]

Thus, the cost of 1 lemon is $1.2 and the cost of 1 lime is $0.4.

What is the minimum value for p=x-2y over the feasibility region defined by the constraints shown above?

x <= 8
y>= 0
y<= 3x+2
y<= -x+10

a. 8
b. -2
c. -16
d. -14

Answers

We want to minimize p=x-2y, given the constraints. This means we want x to be as small as possible and y to be as large as possible, since this will minimize p. 

The fact that x ≤ 8 and y ≥ 0 means we are free to set x as low and y as high as possible, as long as they agree with the other constraints.

Graphing the inequalities helps to see the optimum point. It is where 3x +2 and   -x +10 intersect, at (2,8). This is the greatest point for y that agrees with our inequality.

Remember that the function we are minimizing is p = x - 2y
The value for p at this point is 2 - 2(8) = 2 - 16 = -14

lisa wants to make at least $300.00 selling candy. Hard candy cost $3.00 per piece and chocolates cost cost $6.00 per piece. How many pieces of each type of candy could Lisa sell in order to make at least $300.00

Answers

We have to write an equation for this problem. 
Hard candy = x
Chocolate = y
3x+6y=300

To find y, x=0

3(0)+6y=300
6y=300
y=50

To find x, y=0

3x+6(0)=300
3x=300
x=100



Lisa can either sell 100 hard candies or 50 chocolate to make $300.

What is an equation?

An equation is a formula that expresses the equality of two expressions, by connecting them with the equals sign =.

Given that, Lisa wants to make at least $300.00 selling candy. Hard candy cost $3.00 per piece and chocolates cost $6.00 per piece.

Establishing the equation for this problem.

Let,

Hard candy = x

Chocolate = y

Therefore,

3x+6y=300

To find y, let x=0

3(0)+6y =300

6y = 300

y = 50

Similarly,

To find x, put y=0

3x+6(0)=300

3x=300

x=100

Hence, Lisa can sell 100 hard candies or 50 chocolate to make $300.

Suppose you traveled 84 in 1.5h moving at the same speed, how many mi would you cover in 3 1/4? & can someone answer number 45 also?

Answers

Hi there! I can help you!

43. To solve this, we can find the unit rate by dividing the amount traveled by the amount of time. 84/1.5 is 56. You are traveling at 56 mph. 3 1/4 is equivalent to 3.25. We can multiply that by 56 to find the amount traveled in 3 1/4 hours. 56 * 3.25 is 182. There. You would cover 182 miles in 3 1/4 hours.

44. To find the amount of heart beats in 50 seconds, we can set up a proportion like this: 130/12 = x/50. You set this up, because we’re looking for the amount of heartbeats, but we know the time frame. Cross multiply the values to get 6,500 = 12x. Now, divide each side by 12 to isolate the “x”. 6,500/12 is 541.6666 (541 2/3) or 542 when rounded to the nearest whole number. The heart beats about 542 times in 50 seconds.

45. Okay. Gas costs $1.85 per gallon and there is 18 miles per gallon. To find the cost per mile, we can divide the price for a gallon of gas by 18. 1.85/18 is 0.102777 and 7’s repeating or 0.10 when rounded to the nearest hundredth. The cost for gas per miles is approx. 10 cents.

what is Least common multiple?

The smallest positive integer that is divisible by both a and b is known as the least common multiple, lowest common multiple, or smallest common multiple of two integers, or lcm(a, b), in mathematics and number theory.

4 is the LCM of 2 and 4. To get the smallest multiple that is exactly divisible by 2 and 4, i.e. 4, we must first determine the multiples of 2 and 4 (multiples of 2 = 2, 4, 6, 8; multiples of 4 = 4, 8, 12, 16).

Given:

Hot dogs cam in pack of 9.

Buns came in pack of 12.

Now, to find least number of each bought the same number of hot dogs as buns.

So, LCM(9, 12)

9= 3x 3

12= 2 x2 x 3

Thus, LCM(9, 12) = 3 x 3 x 2 x 2 = 36

Hence, 36 is least number of each for which this was possible.

100 envelopes cost $0.70 how much would it be for 250

Answers

If 100 envelopes cost 0.70, this means that the cost of one envelope is $0.70 ÷ 100, which is $0.007.
The cost of 250 envelopes would then be 0.007 × 250, which is $1.75

If 100 envelopes cost $0.70 then it would cost $1.75 for 250 envelopes.

If 100 envelopes cost $0.70, we can set up a proportion to determine the cost of 250 envelopes:

100 envelopes / $0.70 = 250 envelopes / x

Cross-multiplying:

100 × x = 250 × $0.70

Simplifying:

100x = 175

Dividing both sides by 100:

x = 175 / 100

x = $1.75

Therefore, it would cost $1.75 for 250 envelopes.

All the angles are measured in degrees, show that the triangle is isosceles.

Answers

Value of degree in a polygon is derived by the formular (n - 2) × 180°
n ==> number of sides

∴ (3 - 2) × 180° = 180°

(4x + 8°) + (5x + 2°) + (6x - 10°) = 180°
Remove the parenthesis

4x + 8° + 5x + 2° + 6x - 10° = 180°
Simplify

15x = 180°
x = 12°

An isosceles triangle has 2 equal angles and sides.

In this case, we check them by the angle.

Substitude x into 4x + 8, 5x + 2 and 6x - 10

1. 4(12°) + 8° = 56°
2. 5(12°) + 2° = 62°
3. 6(12°) - 10° = 62°

Notice 2 and 3 have the same angular value.
∴ ∆ is an isosceles ∆.

The triangle is isosceles.

What is a triangle?

A triangle is a polygon that has three vertices on each of its three sides. The angle that is created within the triangle is 180 degrees. It indicates that the sum of a triangle's interior angles is 180 degrees. This is a polygon with the fewest sides. At the end of the day, a triangle is characterized as a three-sided two-layered figure whose inside points are equivalent to 180°.

Given a triangle let the triangle be ΔABC

given angles (4x + 8), (5x + 2) and (6x - 10)

let ∠A = (4x + 8), ∠B =  (5x + 2) and ∠C  = (6x - 10)

we know that sum of angle of triangle is 180⁰

∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180

4x + 8 + 5x + 2 + 6x - 10 = 180

15x = 180

x = 180/15 = 12

∠A = 4x + 8 = 4(12) + 8 = 56⁰

∠B = 5x + 2 = 5(12) + 2 = 62⁰

∠C = 6x - 10 = 6(12) - 10 = 62⁰

since ∠B = ∠C

it is the property of an isosceles triangle, An isosceles triangle is a triangle with any two sides that are the same length and angles on opposite sides that are the same size.

Express 275% as a decimal number

Answers

Hello there! 

Alright so, 100% is equal to 1, because think about it as a fraction, 2/3 is 66%, because it's not full, and 2/3 is 66%, but it's also .66(etc). So, in order to get 100% you'd have to have a 3/3.

I'm going to use 4/4. so in order to go above 100% you'd have to add more.

8/4 is 200% because it divides to 2.00

So now just add 3 more because 3/4 is 75%

11/4 is 275%

Which also divides to 2.75

2.75 is your answer, hope this helped!

The conversion of a percentage to a decimal number, divide the percentage by 100 it means that 275% represents 2.75 times the original quantity.
