The cost of a bottle of water is (w – 1) cents.
The cost of a bottle of milk is (2w – 11) cents.
A certain number of bottles of water costs $4.80.
The same number of bottles of milk costs $7.80 .
Find the value of w

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

w= 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of water= (w -1)¢

Cost of milk= (2w -11)¢

Let the certain number be x.

x(w -1)¢= 480¢ -----(1)

x(2w -11)¢= 780¢ -----(2)

From (1):

wx -x= 480 -----(3)

From (2):

2wx -11x= 780 -----(4)

(3) ×2:

2wx -2x= 960 -----(5)

(5) -(4):

(2wx -2x) -(2wx -11x)= 960 -780

Expand:

2wx -2x -2wx +11x= 180

9x= 180

Divide both sides by 9:

x= 180 ÷9

x= 20

Substitute x= 20 into (3):

w(20) -20= 480

20w -20= 480

20w= 480 +20

20w= 500

w= 500 ÷20

w= 25

A = 576 in
O
D
B.
C
SES

Answers

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

let base be b then height h = 2b + 4

The area (A) of a triangle is calculated as

A = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] bh ( b is the base and h the height ) , then

A = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] b(2b + 4) ← distribute parenthesis

A = b² + 2b

When b = 16 , then

A = 16² + 2(16) = 256 + 32 = 288 in²

1. Calculate the equation of the line through the points (1, 1), (4, 3), (10, 7) and (40, 27).

Answers

Answer:

y = (2/3)x + 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Check that a single straight line will actually go through all four of these points.  Going from (1, 1) to (4, 3), the 'rise' is 2 and the 'run' is 3, which would make the slope, m, equal rise/run = 2/3.  Going from (4,3) to (10, 7), m = rise/run = 4/6 = 2/3 (again).

Let's find the slope-intercept form of the equation of this line:  y = mx + b

Arbitrarily choose the point (1, 1).  Here x = 1, y = 1 and m = 2/3.  Then

we have

1 = (2/3)(1) + b, or 1 = 2/3 + b, so that b must be 1/3.

The equation in question is y = (2/3)x + 1/3

Given

Samir bought 6 equally priced pencils for $2.10.

Unit rate;

A rate is a ratio that is used for comparing two different kinds of quantities which have different units.

The cost of 1 pencil is;

[tex]\rm =\dfrac{2.10}{6}\\\\=0.35[/tex]

Therefore,

The cost of 10 pencils is;

[tex]= 10 \times 0.35\\\\=3.50[/tex]

Hence, the cost of ten pencils is $3.50.

➢ [tex] \sf{t = \dfrac{2 - 3q}{q + 4} }[/tex]

Answer:

t = (2 - 3q)/(q + 4).

Step-by-step explanation:

We cross multiply:

q(t + 3) = 2 - 4t

qt + 3q = 2 - 4t

qt + 4t = 2 - 3q

t(q + 4) = 2 - 3q

t = (2 - 3q)/(q + 4).

Answers

Answer:

[tex]y=\frac{2}{5}x+2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

(x1, y1) = (5, 4)

(x2, y2) = (0, 2)

First, find the slope. The slope formula is:

[tex]m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}[/tex]

I marked the 2 points above in that form, so you can plug those in here:

[tex]m=\frac{2-4}{0-5}\\\\m=\frac{-2}{-5}\\\\m=\frac{2}{5}[/tex]

The slope of this line is 2/5. Next, you can use that slope and whichever known point you want to find the y-intercept. Slope-intercept form is:

[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]

where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Plug in the slope we found for m and whichever point you want for (x, y):

[tex]2=\frac{2}{5}0+b[/tex]

Now, solve for b:

[tex]2=0+b\\b=2[/tex]

In this particular case, there wasn't much to be done. We already had a point at x = 0, and that is already our y-intercept. For similar problems though, that's how you would do it.

Finally, with both the slope and the y-intercept, you can write the equation:

[tex]y=\frac{2}{5}x+2[/tex]

Please check the formatting when posting.  I'm assuming these are the equations:

y=x^2 - 2

y=−x

Step-by-step explanation:

We can either graph the equations or solve them.  I use graphing - see the attachment.  The lines intersect at (-2, 2) and (1,-1)

1.  Graphing

See attached graph

(-2, 2) and (1,-1) are the intersection points

2.  Solving

y=x^2 - 2  Use y=−x in this equation:

-x = x^2 - 2

0 = x^2 + x - 2

0 = (x+2)(x-1)

x = -2 and +1

(-2, 2) and (1,-1) are the intersection points

Line a goes through the points (- 3, 4) and (1, 2) . Line b goes through the point (6, 2) and (8, 1) . Are lines a and b parallel, perpendicular, or neither?

Answers

Answer:

They are parallel

Step-by-step explanation:

Find slope of point A

(-3,4), (1,2)

2-4=-2 1-(-3)=4

slope of a= -2/4 or -1/2

Find slope of point B

(6,2), (8,1)

1-2=-1, 8-6=2

slope of b= -1/2

Both have different slopes, and it can't be perpendicular because they have different denominator values.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(-3,4) (1,2)

difference is (y2 - y1) /( x2 - x1)

-2 / -4

-1/2 is the slope

(6,2) (8,1)

same as the last

-1 / 2

these lines have the same slope so they are parallel, if their slopes were reciprocals (-1/2 and 2) they would be perpendicular.

We cannot swap any digits and have the digits remain in increasing order. The only thing we can do to create different numbers is remove different pairs of digits.
