Cory, Josh and Dan went shopping for Halloween treats. Cory bought 3 chocolate pumpkins, 4 masks and 8 candy witches. He spent $36.65. Josh bought 5 chocolate pumpkins,3 masks and 10 candy witches. He spent $37.50. Dan bought 4 chocolate pumpkins, 5 masks and 6 candy witches. He spent $43.45. Write a system of equations to represent this problem.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]\left\{\begin{matrix}3x+4y+8z=36.65\\ 5x+3y+10z=37.50\\ 4x+5y+6z=43.35\end{matrix}\right.[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

System of equations

Let's set the following variables:

x=Price of chocolate pumpkins

y=Price of masks

z=Price of candy witches

We'll establish the system of equations needed to know the prices of all the Halloween treats.

Cory bought 3 chocolate pumpkins, 4 masks, and 8 candy witches and he spent $36.65. This leads to the following equation:

[tex]3x+4y+8z=36.65\qquad\qquad [1][/tex]

Josh bought 5 chocolate pumpkins, 3 masks, and 10 candy witches and he spent $37.50. This leads to the following equation:

[tex]5x+3y+10z=37.50\qquad\qquad [2][/tex]

Dan bought 4 chocolate pumpkins, 5 masks, and 6 candy witches and he spent $43.45. This leads to the following equation:

[tex]4x+5y+6z=43.35\qquad\qquad [3][/tex]

Collecting the equations [1] [2] [3], we form the system of equations to represent this problem:

[tex]\left\{\begin{matrix}3x+4y+8z=36.65\\ 5x+3y+10z=37.50\\ 4x+5y+6z=43.35\end{matrix}\right.[/tex]

Let $f(x) = 2x - 3$ and $g(x) = x + 1$. What is the value of $f(1 + g(2))$?

Answers

Answer:

The value of f(1 + g(2)) is 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us solve the question

∵ f(x) = 2x - 3

∵ g(x) = x + 1

We need to find the value of f(1 + g(2))

That means we will replace x in f(x) by 1 + g(2)

→ g(2) means substitute x in g by 2

∵ g(x) = x + 1

∵ x = 2

∴ g(2) = 2 + 1

g(2) = 3

∵ x of f = 1 + g(2)

∵ g(2) = 3

∴ x of f = 1 + 3

x of f = 4

→ To find f(1 + g(2)) substitute 1 + g(2) by 4

∵ f(x) = 2x - 3

∵ x = 4

∴ f(4) = 2(4) - 3

∴ f(4) = 8 - 3

f(4) = 5

f(1 + g(2)) = 5

How do I solve for x, y, and z? Please help ASAP.

Answers

Answer:

x = 60 degrees, y = 120 degrees, z = 30 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, we must first recognize that the triangle on the left is an equilateral triangle.  This means that all of its side lengths are equal, which in turn means that all of its angles have the same measure.  Since we know the sum of the interior angles of a triangle must be 180, we can write and solve the following:

x + x + x = 180

3x = 180

x = 60 degrees

Next, we should notice that one of the 60 degree angles is supplementary with angle y, which means that their sum should equal 180 degrees.  This lets us write the following equation:

y + 60 = 180

When we subtract 60 from both sides to solve, we get:

y = 120 degrees

Finally, we should notice that the triangle on the right is isosceles.  This means that two of the side lengths (and thus two of the angles) are equal.  This means that the unmarked angle must also measure z degrees since the side lengths corresponding to these two side lengths are equal.  From this information we can write the following equation:

y + z + z = 180

If we substitute the value for y and solve, we get:

120 + 2z = 180

2z = 60

z = 30 degrees

Therefore, the correct answer is x = 60 degrees, y = 120 degrees, and z = 30 degrees.

Hope this helps!

C. Angle MNP

Step-by-step explanation:

Check the corresponding equal sides with congruent angles

Answer: Third choice. [tex]\angle MNP[/tex]

=======================================================

Explanation:

We want to find something congruent to angle ABC.

With angle ABC, we have

A firstB secondC third

The order is important.

Looking at the triangle on the right, we see that

angle A has three arc marksangle B has one arc markangle C has two arc marks

The sequence of arc markings can be written as 3,1,2

Now focus your attention on the triangle on the left. Start with the triple arc angle, move to the single arc angle, then go to the double arc angle. You should trace out M, N then P in that exact order.

Therefore [tex]\angle ABC \cong \angle MNP[/tex]

Note how M is first, N is second, then P is third.

This lets us form these pairs of congruences

A = M (first letters; triple arc marking)B = N (second letters; single arc marking)C = P (third letters; double arc marking)

You are a contractor and charge $90 for a site visit plus an additional $24 per hour for each hour you spend working at the site. Write and solve an equation to determine how many total hours you have to work to earn $810 working at two separate work sites. Let the number of hours you work be y.

Answers

Answer:

x=29.66hrs

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, we can model the equation for the total cost as

Let y be the total cost

Let x be the number of hours

Y=98+24x

Also, given that you have earned $810

We can substitute Y=810 and solve for x

810=98+24x

810-98=24x

712=24x

Dividing both sides by 24

712/24=x

x=29.66hrs

You've decided to open a checking account. You know there are a number of differences with individual banking institutions. Name at least 3 good questions to ask to get started, and explain why knowing this information is helpful. Use complete sentences.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The three best questions to ask would be the following

What are the fees?What are the bonuses and rewards?What is the interest rate?

Most bank checkings account charges fees and these fees may or may not be hidden. These can include maintenance fees, overdraft fees, balance fees, etc. and can stack up if not managed correctly. Therefore it is best to know beforehand.

One of the main things that set these accounts apart between banks are the bonuses and rewards. Some banks may offer a sign-up bonus which can be 200$ or higher when opening a new account. Others may offer higher interest rates for returning customers, or even a physical reward for spending money or depositing a certain amount into the account. These are features that set the different banks apart.

Lastly, would be the interest rate. This is especially important if you have a large sum of money that will be in the account as your money can generate more money with an interest rate. Banks may offer anywhere between 1% to 3% annual interest rate. This can be a deciding factor when choosing one bank over another.

Un apostador pierde en su primer juego el 30% de su dinero, en el segundo juego pierde el 50% de lo que perdió; finalmente en el tercer juego pierde el 40% de todo lo que ha perdido quedándole 37 soles para seguir apostando. Dar como respuesta el dinero que el apostador tenía al principio menos su 75%

Answers

Responder:

26,62

Explicación paso a paso:

Sea x el dinero original que tenía el jugador:

si un jugador pierde en su primer juego el 30% de su dinero, la cantidad perdida será;

[tex]= 30/100 \ of \ x\\= 0.3x[/tex]

Si en el segundo juego pierde el 50% de lo que perdió, entonces la cantidad perdida en el segundo juego será:

[tex]= 50/100 \ of \ 0.3x\\= 0.5 \times 0.3x\\= 0.15x[/tex]

Si en el tercer juego pierde el 40% de todo lo que ha perdido, la cantidad perdida en el tercer juego será:

[tex]=\frac{40}{100} \ of \ (0.3x+0.15x) \\= 0.4(0.45x)\\= 0.2025x[/tex]

Si la cantidad que le queda para seguir apostando es de 37 soles, entonces para calcular la cantidad original que tiene, sumaremos toda la cantidad perdida y la cantidad restante y equipararemos la cantidad original x como se muestra:

0,3x + 0,15x + 0,2025x + 37 = x

0,6525x + 37 = x

x-0,6525x = 37

0,3475x = 37

x = 37 / 0,3475

x = 106,48

La cantidad que tenía originalmente era de 106,48

75% de 106,48

= 75/100 * 106,48

= 0,75 * 106,48

= 79,86

Tomando la diferencia entre su monto original y su 75% será:

[tex]= 106.48-79.86\\= 26.62[/tex]

Zynep ran 3 miles in 27 minutes

Answer:

Prax and sandy

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Jim's pace = 4 miles in 38 minutes

Jim's rate = Distance covered / time.

Rate = 4 / 38 = 0.1052631 miles /min

Prax ran 6 miles in 57 minutes:

Prax rate : 6miles / 57 mins = 0.1052631

Jose ran 5 miles in 45.5 minutes:

Jose's rate = 5 miles / 45.5 = 0.1098901 miles /

minute

Sandy ran 7 miles in 66.5 minutes:

Sandy's rate = 7 / 66.5 = 0.1052631 miles / minutes

Verify 1) x³+y³=(x+y)(x²-xy+y²)
2) x³-y³=(x-y)(x²+xy+y²)
using some non-zero positive integers and check by actual multiplication. can you call these as identities? ​

Answers

To Prove & verify that :

x³ + y³ = (x + y)(x² - xy + y²)

x³ - y³ = (x - y)(x² + xy + y²).

Proof for 1st Identity :

★ x³ + y³ = x (x² - xy + y²) + y(x² - xy + y²)

⟶ x³ + y³ = x³ - x²y + xy² + x²y - xy² + y³

⟶ x³ + y³ = x³ + y³

Proof for 2nd identity :

★ x³ - y³ = x(x² + xy + y²) - y(x² + xy + y²)

⟶ x³ - y³ = x³ + x²y + xy² - x²y - xy² - y³

⟶ x³ - y³ = x³ - y³

For example,

Let us assume that,

x = 1

y = 2

So,

✯ x³ + y³ = 1³ + 2³

⟹ (x + y)(x² - xy + y²) = 1 + 8

⟹ (1 + 2)(1² - (1)(2) + 2²) = 9

⟹ 3 * (1 - 2 + 4) = 9

⟹ 3 * 3 = 9

⟹ 9 = 9

✯ x³ - y³ = 1³ - 2³

⟹ (1 - 2) * (1² + (1)(2) + 2²) = 1 - 8

⟹ ( - 1) * (1 + 2 + 4) = - 7

⟹ ( - 1) * (7) = - 7

⟹ - 7 = - 7

Thus , they can be called as identities/formulae as they are very useful in finding the value of a certain equation or an expression easily.

I hope it will help you.

Southside High School has a total of 1824 students. There are 84 fewer girls at Southside than boys.

Write an expression you can use to find out how many boys, b, there are at Southside.

How many boys are students at Southside High?

How many girls are students at Southside High?

Answers

Answer:

The expression you can use to find out how many boys is b + (b - 84) = 1824

There are 954 boys at Southside High School

There are 870 girls at Southside High School

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume that the number of boys in the Southside High School is b

∵ There are b boys in the Southside High School

∵ The number of girls is 84 fewer than boys

→ Subtract 84 from b to find the number of girls

∴ The number of girls in the Southside High School is (b - 84)

∵ Southside High School has a total of 1824 students

→ That means the sum of the numbers of the boys and the girls is 1824

∴ b + (b - 84) = 1824

∴ The expression you can use to find out how many boys is

   b + (b - 84) = 1824

→ Add the like terms in the left side

∴ (b + b) - 84 = 1824

2b - 84 = 1824

→ Add 84 to both sides

∵ 2b - 84 + 84 = 1824 + 84

2b = 1908

→ Divide both sides by 2 to find b

∵ [tex]\frac{2b}{2}=\frac{1908}{2}[/tex]

b = 954

There are 954 boys at Southside High School

∵ The number of girls at Southside High School = b -84

→ Substitute b by 954

∴ The number of girls at Southside High School = 954 - 84

∴ The number of girls at Southside High School = 870

There are 870 girls at Southside High School
