a 20 pound platter of cookies costs $77. the platter is a mix of peanut butter that costs $4 per pound, sugar that costs $3 per pound, and chocolate chip that’s costs $4.50 per pound. there are two more pounds of sugar cookies than peanut butter. how many pounds of sugar cookies are on the platter?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: 7 pounds of sugar cookies

X+Y+Z = 20

4x + 3y +4.50z = 77

-x + y + 0z = 2

X+Y+Z = 20                      4x + 3y + 4.50z = 77

-x + y +Oz = 2                   (-x + y + 0z = 2) x 4     (-4x +4y+0z=8)

Add the problems vertically

0x + 2y + z = 22              0x +7y + 4.50 z = 85

Rewrite the problem

2y + z = 22                (Times 7)

7y + 4.50 = 85          (Times -2)

14y +7z = 154

-14y - 9z = -170      

Add Vertically

-2z = -16

divide by -2

z = 8

there are 8 Chocy Chips

if we plug 8 for z in 2y + z = 22      we get y = 7

making 5 be X (Cause X+Y+z = 20)

8 Chocy

7 Sugar

5 Peanut butter

slope and y intercept for 2y-8=6x

Answers

Answer:

slope = 3

y intercept = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Rearrange the equation so y is the subject.

1. Add 8 to both sides

2y = 6x + 8

2. Divide both sides by 2

y = 3x + 4

Voilà, you got your answer in the line format, y = mx + c, where m is the slope and c is the y intercept.

An airplane flies with a constant speed of 768 km/h. How far can it travel in 50 minutes

Answers

180 + 20 = 200 minutes total

14 x 200 = 2800km

y = - 4x + 3 & x - 4y = 8 : parallel or perpendicular or neither​

Answers

Answer:

perpendicular

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines have equal slopes

The product of the slopes of perpendicular lines = - 1

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

y = - 4x + 3 ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = - 4

x - 4y =  8 ( subtract x from both sides )

- 4y = - x + 8 ( divide through by - 4 )

y = [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] x + 2 ← in slope- intercept form

with slope m = [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex]

Since the slopes are not equal the lines are not parallel

- 4 × [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] = - 1

Then the lines are perpendicular

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

According to given table we have pairs of points:

(4, 6.00), (5, 8.25), (6, 10.50)

The rate of change is:

(8.25 - 6.00)/(5 - 4) = 2.25

or

(10.50 - 8.25)/(6 - 5) = 2.25

It is 2.25 and the meaning is:

How do you write 17/5 as an mixed number

Answers

Answer:

3 2/5

Step-by-step explanation:

17/5= 3 2/5

Answer:

First find the nearest number divisible by 5 to get a whole number returned

that number is 15

15/5 = 3 (no decimals)

so the ‘big’ (as I like to call it) number or the integer that isn’t part of the fraction would be 3.

now what is left?

subtract 15 from the numerator

17 - 15 = 2

replace 17 with 2 in the fraction to get 2/5

The result is [tex]3\frac{2}{5}[/tex]

to prove this is the same

multiply the ‘big number’ by the denominator

3*5 = 15

and add the numerator

15+2 = 17

now just insert the denominator below it, and you get 17/5

B.
$80.29
C.
$90.29
D.
$27.27

Answers

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

First find out how much he made without the supplies. To do this you would multiply $15.80 by the 7 hours he worked. This gives you 110.60. Then subtract 110.60 from the 190.89 the job cost. You would then overall get 80.29 for the supplies
