Jeff is a shoe salesman, and he works on commission. This week, there is a special incentive to sell shoes and boots by a certain company. Yesterday, Jeff sold 8 pairs of shoes and 7 pairs of boots, earning $188 in commission. Today, he sold 8 pairs of shoes and 6 pairs of boots, earning a total commission of $168. How much does Jeff earn for the sale of each type of footwear?
Answer:
1. 1 Burrito Platter = $58.50 , 1 Taco platter = $12.50
2. One pair of boots = $20 , One pair of shoes = $6
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Let the cost of one burrito platter be x and one taco platter be y.
4x + 2y = 259 --- Equation 1
4x + 4y = 284 --- Equation 2
Equations 2-1: 4x + 4y - 4x - 2y = 284 - 259
2y = 25
y = 25 ÷ 2
y = 12.50 (Taco platter)
Substitute y = 12.50 into Equation 1:
4x + 2y = 259
4x + 2(12.50) = 259
4x + 25 = 259
4x = 259 - 25
= 234
x = 234 ÷ 4
x = 58.50 (Burrito platter)
2. Let the cost of one pair of boots be x and one pair of shoes be y.
7x + 8y = 188 --- Equation 1
6x + 8y = 168 --- Equation 2
Equations 1-2: 7x + 8y - 6x - 8y = 188 - 168
x = 20 (Boots)
Substitute x = 20 into Equation 2:
6x + 8y = 168
6(20) + 8y = 168
120 + 8y = 168
8y = 168 - 120
= 48
y = 48 ÷ 8
y = 6 (Shoes)
Marley got 18 questions right on her lastest math test. When she checked her score in Aspen she saw that was 90%. How many questions were on the test?

Answer:
third option
Step-by-step explanation:
The n th term of a geometric sequence is
[tex]a_{n}[/tex] = a₁ [tex](r)^{n-1}[/tex]
where a₁ is the first term and r the common ratio
[tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] [tex](2)^{k-1}[/tex] ← is in this form
with a₁ = [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] and r = 2
find the profit or loss of the following:
CP=Rs 300, SP= Rs 832
Answer:
Profit of 532
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the SP is more than the CP then there is a profit
profit = SP - CP = 832 - 300 = 532
(3 + 6)2 + ((17 + 8) - 42)
Answer:
1 I think.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Given Equation
(3 + 6)2 + ((17 + 8) - 42)
We will simplify to get the answer.
[tex]= (9)[/tex] × [tex](2) + 17 + 8 - 42[/tex]
= [tex]18+17+8-42[/tex]
= [tex]18 + 25 - 42[/tex]
= [tex]18 + -17[/tex]
= 1
The answer to the question is 1.
If the principal is $612 and the rate of interest is 2.85%, what is the amount of interest after eight years?
Answer:
$766.28
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation for interest rate is as follows:
[tex]A = P(1 + r)^t\\[/tex]
A = The total amount
P = Initial amount
R = The interest rate
T = Time
Let's plug everything into the equation that is given in the question:
The initial amount = 612
Interest rate = 2.85
Time = 8 years
[tex]A = 612(1+.0285)^8[/tex]
***Just a reminder we move the decimal over twice when working with percents***
Now, lets solve for the total amount:
[tex]A = 612(1.0285)^8\\A = 612(1.252086602)\\A = 766.28[/tex]
Therefore, after 8 years the principal is $766.28.
I hope this helps!!

One species of fish in a fishery had an initial population
of 255 fish and after 9 seasons, the population had grown to
480 fish. A second species that was being overfished started
with an initial population of 450 fish, and after the same 9
seasons, it had a new population of 90 fish. Assuming a
linear growth, write the equations for the population of
•each species. Graph your equations in the coordinate plane.
Find the point in the graph which represents when the two
populations will have the same number of fish. After how
many seasons will the second population be eliminated?
9514 1404 393
Answer:
y = 25x +255y = -40x +450(3, 330)11 1/4 seasonsStep-by-step explanation:
The 2-point form of the equation of a line is useful for these problems. It is ...
y = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)(x -x1) +y1
__
a) The two points are (0, 255) and (9, 480). The equation is ...
y = (480 -255)/(9 -0)(x -0) +255
y = 25x +255
__
b) The two points are (0, 450), (9, 90). The equation is ...
y = (90 -450)/(9 -0)(x -0) +450
y = -40x +450
__
c) The point where both populations are the same is (3, 330).
__
d) The second population will be eliminated after 11 1/4 seasons.

Last month you spent $40 on clothing. This month you spent 120% of what you spent last month. Set up a proportion to model this situation. How much did you spend this month?
Answer:
$48
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Money spent on clothing last month = $40
Money spent this month is 120% of the spending of the last month.
To find:
A proportion to model this situation.
And the spending done this month?
Solution:
Let us have a look at 120% first.
[tex]120\%= \dfrac{120}{100} = \dfrac{6}{5}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{6}{5}[/tex] of [tex]x[/tex] can be found by comparing [tex]x[/tex] with 5, then we have to find the equivalent of 6.
Here, [tex]x[/tex] is 40.
5 parts are equivalent to 40
1 part is equivalent to [tex]\frac{40}{5} = 8[/tex]
6 parts are equivalent to [tex]8\times 6 = 48[/tex]
OR
simply:
[tex]40 \times \dfrac{120}{100} = 48[/tex]

| 18| - | - 10| what is the absolute value
Answer:
16
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
the absolute value of 18 is 18 because absolute value is the distance from zero. the calculate value of -10 is 10. 18-10=8
|18| - |-10| =
18 - 10 = 8
The longer leg of a 30°-60°-90° triangle measures
[tex]8 \sqrt{3} [/tex]
inches. What is the length of the shorter leg?
Answer:
Length of shorter leg is 8 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we want to calculate the length of the shorter leg of a 30-60-90 triangle
In a 30-60-90 triangle, the sides are in the ratio;
1: √3 : 2
So the ratio of the length of the shorter and longer leg is;
1 : √3
So in this case let the shorter leg be x
x/8 √3 = 1/√3
8 √3 * 1 = √3 * x
x = 8 √3/√3
x = 8 inches
From each of the following sets make all possible ordered pairs,
(a) P= {x,y)
(b) X= {1, 2, 3)
Answer:
All possible ordered pairs are as follows:
{(x, 1), (x, 2), (x, 3), (y, 1), (y, 2), (y, 3)}Step-by-step explanation:
In an ordered pair (x, y),
x is called the first component y is called the second component.Let
P = {x, y}
X = {1, 2, 3}
The number of elements in the set P = n(P) = 2The number of elements in the set X = n(X) = 3So, the number of possible ordered pairs = 2 × 3 = 6
Therefore, all possible ordered pairs are as follows:
{(x, 1), (x, 2), (x, 3), (y, 1), (y, 2), (y, 3)}Which ordered pair would form a proportional relationship with the point graphed below? 40 (-20,40) 30 20 10 -40-30-20-190 10 20 30 40 x -20 -30 -40 0 (-40, 20) 0 (-10.-20) O (15, -30) O (5, -15)
Answer:
(15,-30)
Step-by-step explanation:
By forming a proportional relationship with the marked point, what we are saying is that the same dilation if applied to each coordinates of the marked point will form the new point
The marked point is given as (-20,40)
If we dilate this by -0.75 units
That will give (15, -30)
So this forms a proportional relationship with the marked point

Naomi surveyed 480 of the students in her school about their favorite color. 95% said their favorite color was red. How many students' favorite color was red?
Answer:
456 students
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find 95% of the 480 students, you can set up the equation below:
[tex]\frac{students}{total} = \frac{percent}{100percent}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{x}{480students} =\frac{95percent}{100 percent}[/tex]
x * 100 = 480 * 95
x = 45600 / 100 = 456
95% of 480 students is 456 students.
As Jupiter revolves around the sun, it travels at a speed of approximately 8 miles per second. Convert this speed to kilometers per second. At this speed, how
many kilometers will Jupiter travel in 15 seconds? In your computations, assume that I mile is equal to 1.6 kilometers. Do not round your answers
Answer:
Speed is 12.8km/sec. Jupiter will travel 192km in 15 sec.
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]\frac{8mi}{1sec} * \frac{1.6km}{1mi} = 12.8km/sec[/tex]
[tex]\frac{12.8km}{1sec} * 15sec = 192km[/tex]
Which of the following functions best describes this graph?
A. y = x^2 - 8x +18
B. y = (x+4)(x+5)
C. y = x^2 -9x +20
D. y = (x-3)(x+4)
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
Looking at the graph, we can see the roots at two points
these are points x = 4 and x = 5
This can be written in their linear forms as;
x-4 and x-5
Finding the products of both, we have
x(x-5) -4(x-5)
= x^2 -5x -4x + 20
= x^2 - 9x + 20

what is the derivative of ( 2w^2+1 ) ?
If you know about the power rule,
d/dw (2w² + 1) = 2 d/dw (w²) = 2 • 2w = 4w
If you have to use the limit definition of the derivative, let f(w) = 2w² + 1. Then
[tex]f'(w)=\displaystyle\lim_{h\to0}\frac{f(w+h)-f(w)}h[/tex]
[tex]f'(w)=\displaystyle\lim_{h\to0}\frac{(2(w+h)^2+1)-(2w^2+1)}h[/tex]
[tex]f'(w)=\displaystyle\lim_{h\to0}\frac{2(w^2+2wh+h^2)-2w^2}h[/tex]
[tex]f'(w)=\displaystyle\lim_{h\to0}\frac{4wh+2h^2}h[/tex]
[tex]f'(w)=\displaystyle\lim_{h\to0}(4w+2h)=\boxed{4w}[/tex]
