A group of 24 people need transportation from a hotel to a concert. They will be picked up by Uber drivers that can fit 4 passengers in their compact car and 6 passengers in their SUV’s. You would like to determine how many compact cars and SUVs could be used to transport the entire group. Let x = the number of compact cars and let y = the number of SUV's.
Write and graph an equation that models the situation.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Compact cars:
24 divided by 4 = 6
6 cars for 24 people
SUV's:
24 divided by 6 = 4
4 SUV's for 24 people
Answer:
[tex]4x+6y=24[/tex]
See below for graph.
Step-by-step explanation:
A total of 24 people need to be transported.
Let x represent the number of Uber compact cars.
And let y represent the number of SUVs.
So, the number of people that can be picked up by x compact cars is 4x.
And the number of people that can be picked up by y SUVs is 6y.
And the total is 24 people. So, the two terms must total 24. So, we can write:
[tex]4x+6y=24[/tex]
We can convert this to slope-intercept form. First, we can divide everything by 2:
[tex]2x+3y=12[/tex]
Subtracting 2x from both sides yields:
[tex]3x=-2x+12[/tex]
Finally, dividing both sides by 3 yields our linear equation:
[tex]\displaystyle y=-\frac{2}{3}x+4[/tex]
Please refer to the below attachment for the graph.
*Note that we should restrain our graph to only QI. This is because we cannot use negative compact cars of SUVs. Also, only integer points on the line will work, as we cannot have, say, 2.5 compact cars.
**Also, the x- and y-intercepts tell us the maximum of each type needed. Either we need 6 compact cars and 0 SUVs, (6, 0); 4 SUVs and 0 compact cars (0, 4); or a combination of them.
Please can I have an explanation, I am terrible at these kinds of questions! Q- A bag contains red, yellow and blue beads. The ratio of red beads to yellow beads is 2:3 The ratio of yellow beads to blue beads is 5:4 Work out what fraction of the beads are red.
Answer:
[tex]Red = \frac{10}{37}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]Red:Yellow = 2 : 3[/tex]
[tex]Yellow: Blue = 5 : 4[/tex]
Required
Determine the fraction of Red
First, we need to link the given ratios.
Since yellow is present in both ratios, we start by making the ratio of yellow equal in both ratios
Multiply this ratio by 5
[tex]Red:Yellow = 2 : 3[/tex]
This becomes
[tex]Red:Yellow = 10 :15[/tex]
Similarly, multiply this ratio by 3
[tex]Yellow: Blue = 5 : 4[/tex]
This becomes
[tex]Yellow:Blue =15:12[/tex]
At this point, we have:
[tex]Red:Yellow = 10 :15[/tex] and [tex]Yellow:Blue =15:12[/tex]
Combine
[tex]Red:Yellow:Blue = 10:15:12[/tex]
The fraction is then calculated as:
[tex]Red = \frac{Red}{Red +Yellow + Blue}[/tex]
This gives
[tex]Red = \frac{10}{10+15+12}[/tex]
[tex]Red = \frac{10}{37}[/tex]

Stewie wants to rent a moving truck.Suppose company a charges a rate of $40 per day band company b charges a $60 fee plus has a rate of $20 per day.For what number of days is the cost same?
Answer:
The indifference point is 3 days.
Step-by-step explanation:
Company A:
Total cost= 40*x
Company B:
Total cost= 60 + 20*x
x= number of days
To calculate the indifference point, we need to equal both formulas. and isolate x:
40x = 60 + 20x
20x= 60
x= 60/20
x= 3
The indifference point is 3 days.
Prove:
Company A:
Total cost= 40*3= $120
Company B:
Total cost= 60 + 20*3= $120
Factor the expression using the GCF (Greatest Common Factor)

Khalid and Jesse took different overnight trains. The graph shows the relationship between the total distance Khalid traveled and the time in hours. The distance Jesse traveled after x hours is given by the equation y = 150x. Who, if anyone, traveled at a faster speed? Use the drop-down menus to explain your answer.
Khalid’s rate is ____ miles per hour. Jesse’s rate is ____ miles per hour. So, ____ train traveled at a faster speed.
Answer:
Khalid’s rate is 140 mi/h. Jesse’s rate is 150 miles per hour
So, Jesse’s train traveled at a faster speed
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we want to compare speeds
For Jesse’s train, the speed is 150 mi/h
we got this from the fact that the equation of a straight line is represented as;
y = mx + b
where m which is the slope represents the rate of change
m here is 150
For Khalid’s;
we can get his own rate from the graph
This can be obtained using the slope
We can simply have this as ;
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
Let us have two points
(4,560) and (0,0)
Thus;
m = 560/4 = 140 mi/h
Hence;
Khalid’s rate is 140 mi/h. Jesse’s rate is 150 miles per hour
So, Jesse’s train traveled at a faster speed

Melissa works for a florist. She used her employee discount to purchase 10 roses at $1.00 each. If melissa saved $4.00 by using her employee discount, what is the regular price if one rose purchased from the florist?
Answer: $1.4
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Discounted price roses = $1
Amount saved = $4
Regular price - discounted price = amount saved
x - 10(1) = 4
x - 10 = 4
x = 4 + 10
x = $14
Regular price of 10 roses = $14
Regular price per rose = $14 / 10 = $1.4
The number of peanuts in bags is normally distributed with a mean of 172.5 peanuts and a standard deviation of 1.9 peanuts. What is the z-score of a bag containing 168 peanuts
Answer:
- 2.368
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that :
Mean (m) = 172. 5
Standard deviation (s) = 1.9
Score (x) = 168
The Zscore can be obtained thus :
Zscore = (x - m) / s
Zscore = (168 - 172.5) / 1.9
Zscore = - 4.5 / 1.9
Zscore = −2.368421
Zscore = - 2.368

Answer:
c=8+3.75x, where:
c is the cost to go to the ice skating ring
x is the number of hours
Step-by-step explanation:
From the information given, the cost to go to the ice skating ring is equal to the cost to rent ice skates plus the result of multiplying the cost to skate per hour for the number of hours and the equation would be:
c=8+3.75x, where:
c is the cost to go to the ice skating ring

Tyra has 12 2/3 cups of sugar. If r is the amount of sugar called for in one batch of cookies, the expression 12 2/3 ÷ r can be used to find how many batches Tyra can make with the sugar she has. If r is 2/3 cup, how many batches of cookies can Tyra make? Enter your answer in the box. Quick I need help plz.
Answer:
19 batches
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Total number of cups of sugar = [tex]12\frac{2}{3}[/tex]
Amount of sugar used in one batch = [tex]r[/tex]
Number of batches that can be made by Tyra with the amount of sugar that is available with Tyra can be calculated by dividing the total number of cups of sugar available with Tyra with the amount of sugar to be used in one batch.
i.e.
Number of batches = [tex]12\frac{2}{3} \div r[/tex]
Also, if we put the value:
[tex]r=\frac{2}{3}[/tex]
We have to find the number of batches of cookies that can be made by Tyra.
Solution:
First of all, let us have a look at the formula to convert the mixed fraction into fractional number.
[tex]a\dfrac{b}{c} = \dfrac{a\times c + b}{c}[/tex]
Therefore,
[tex]12\dfrac{2}{3} = \dfrac{12\times 3 + 2}{3} = \dfrac{38}{3}[/tex]
Number of batches:
[tex]\dfrac{38}{3} \div \dfrac{2}{3}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{38}{3} \times \dfrac{3}{2}\\\Rightarrow \bold{19}[/tex]
Therefore, 19 batches can be completed.
