Elliot spent $16.15 on ground beef at a grocery store. He purchased 3 and 2 over 5 pounds of ground beef. What is the price per pound of the ground beef at that store?

Answers

Answer 1

We want to know how much is the price per pound (or unit rate) of ground beef, given that we know the price for Elliot's purchase. We will see that each pound costs $4.75

So we know that (3 + 2/5) lb of ground beef costs $16.15, the cost of a single pound will be given by the quotient between the total cost and the amount purchased, then we need to solve:

[tex]P =\frac{ \$ 16.15}{(3 + 2/5)lb}[/tex]

We can rewrite the denominator as:

(3 + 2/5)lb = (15/5 + 2/5)lb = (17/5) lb

Replacing that we get:

[tex]P =\frac{ \$ 16.15}{(17/5)lb} = \frac{ \$ 16.15*5}{17lb} = \$4.75 \ per \ lb[/tex]

So each pound of ground beef costs $4.75

Answer:

  g(x) = 4x² -x +64

Step-by-step explanation:

The integral of f(x) will be continuous. This means the value must be the same for x = 4- as for x = 4+.

For some constant c1, the integral in the region x ≤ 4 is ...

  ∫f(x)dx = (4x² -x +c1) +C = g(x) +C

The integral in the region x ≥ 4 is given as ...

  ∫f(x)dx = 31x +C

Evaluated at x=4, we must get the same value from either expression:

  4(4²) -4 +c1 +C = 31(4) +C

  60 +c1 = 124

  c1 = 64

__

In order to make the integral continuous at x=4, we must have ...

  g(x) = 4x² -x +64

LCD= x²- 81

Step-by-step explanation:

x²-81 is difference of two squares

a²-b²= (a+b)(a-b)

x²- 81= (x+9)(x-9)

denominators, (x-9) and (x+9)(x-9)

x-9 is common in both denominators

x-9|(x-9)|(x+9)(x-9)

x+9| 1 | x+9

| 1 | 1

therefore the LCD= (x-9)(x+9)

basically how to write y-3=4(x+2) in slope intercept form

Answers

Answer: y = 4x + 11

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form is y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

y = mx + b

Rewrite in slope-intercept form.

Simplify the right side.

Simplify 4(x + 2).

y - 3 = 4x + 8

Move all terms not containing y to the right side of the equation.

Add 3 to both sides of the equation.

y = 4x + 8 + 3

Add 8 and 3.

y = 4x + 11

Answers

Answer:

x=7 and y=2

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case, you want to use elimination

1. multiply the second equation by -1

       5x + 3y = 41

       2x + 3y = 20

turns into

       5x + 3y = 41

       -2x + 3y = 20

2. combine the equations

       3x=21

3. solve for x

3x=21

3x/3=21/3

x=7

4. Now you want to plug x back into the original equation

5x+3y=41

turns into

5(7)+3y=41

5. Then solve for y

35+3y=41

35+3y-35=41-35

3y=6

3y/3=6/3

y=2

well, a WHOLE is 1, which we can split in many fractions, say 5/5, 10/10 or 999/999 and so on.

we know 1/5 of the jar is chocolate chip, and there's the rest, well, the Whole jar in 5ths have to be 5/5, if we take away 1/5 from 5/5, the "rest" is 5/5 - 1/5 = 4/5.

now, we also know that 1/2 of the "rest" is peanut butter, or namely that 1/2 of 4/5 is peanut butter, how much will that be?  let's divide 4/5 by 2

[tex]\cfrac{4}{5}\div 2\implies \cfrac{4}{5}\div \cfrac{2}{1}\implies \cfrac{4}{5}\cdot \cfrac{1}{2}\implies \cfrac{4}{10}\implies \cfrac{2}{5}[/tex]

Deondra needs to order some new supplies for the restaurant where she works. The restaurant needs at least 624 glasses. There are currently 344 glasses. If each set on sale contains 20 glasses, write and solve an inequality which can be used to determine ss, the number of sets of glasses Deondra could buy for the restaurant to have enough glasses

Answers

Writing and solving an inequality to model the situation, it is found that Deondra could buy 14 sets of glasses for the restaurant to have enough glasses.

There are currently 344 glasses.In each set bought, there are 20 glasses.

Hence, the total of glasses after s sets are bought is given by:

[tex]T(s) = 344 + 20s[/tex]

The restaurant needs at least 624 glasses, hence:

[tex]T(s) \geq 624[/tex]

[tex]344 + 20s \geq 624[/tex]

Solving the inequality:

[tex]344 + 20s \geq 624[/tex]

[tex]20s \geq 280[/tex]

[tex]s \geq \frac{280}{20}[/tex]

[tex]s \geq 14[/tex]

Deondra could buy 14 sets of glasses for the restaurant to have enough glasses.

Answers

Answer:

Equivalent ratios (which are, in effect, equivalent fractions) are two ratios that express the same relationship between numbers. We can create equivalent ratios by multiplying or dividing both the numerator and denominator of a given ratio by the same number. Two ratios that have the same value are called equivalent ratios. To find an equivalent ratio, multiply or divide both quantities by the same number. It is the same process as finding equivalent fractions.

when 2 ratios are the same or equivalent by simplifying. For example 1 to 4 is the same as 2 to 8 because when I simplify it i get 1 to 4
