The Writing Emporium sells pencils and pens individually. Alana buys a pencil and two pens for $1.10. Jeffrey buys two pencils and a pen for $1.00. How much does Edward spend to buy six pencils and six pens from the Writing Emporium?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

$4.20

Step-by-step explanation:

The Writing Emporium sells pencils and pens individually.

Step 1

We have to first find the price of a pencil and a pen

Let:

The price of a pencil = x

The price of a pen = y

Alana buys a pencil and two pens for $1.10.

x + 2y = 1.1 ......Equation 1

x = 1.1 - 2y

Jeffrey buys two pencils and a pen for $1.00.

2x + y = 1 ........ Equation 2

We substitute 1.1 - 2y for x in Equation 2

2(1.1 - 2y) + y = 1

2.2 - 4y + y = 1

-4y + y = 1 - 2.2

-3y = -1.2

y = -1.2/-3

y = $0.4

Solving for x

x = 1.1 - 2y

x = 1.1 - 2(0.4)

x = 1.1 - 0.8

x = $0.3

Hence:

The price of a pencil = x = $0.3

The price of a pen = y = $0.4

Step 2

How much does Edward spend to buy six pencils and six pens from the Writing Emporium?

6x + 6y

6($0.3) + 6($0.4)

$1.8 + $2.4

= $4.20

Therefore, Edward spent $4.20 to buy six pencils and six pens from the Writing Emporium.

During the first six months of the year, the car dealership sold 47 cars, 53 cars, 62 cars, 56 cars, 46 cars, and 48 cars. What was the average number of cars sold per month during the first six months of the year?

Answers

Answer:

52 cars

Step-by-step explanation:

During the first six months of the year the car dealership sold

53 cars

47 cars

62 cars

56 cars

46 cars

48 cars

Therefore the average number of cars sold per month can be calculated as follows

= 53+47+62+56+46+48/6

= 312/6

= 52

Hence an average of 52 cars is sold monthly

Show your work to evaluate g(f(x)) if f(x)=x+2/2 and g(x)=1x−1

Answers

Answer:

x/2.

Step-by-step explanation:

We replace the x in g(x) by f(x):

g(f(x)) = 1((x + 2/2) - 1

= (x + 2)/2 - 1

= (x + 2 - 2)/2

= x/2.

Answer:

x/2

Step-by-step explanation:

g(f(x)) = (x+2/2) - 1

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

          = (x + 2 - 2) / 2

           = x/2

On comparing the ratios of the coefficients, find out whether the pair of equations x – 2y =0 and 3x + 4y -20 =0 is consistent or inconsistent.​

Answers

Answer:

The pair of equations is consistent

Step-by-step explanation:

A consistent system of equations has at least one solution

The consistent independent system has exactly 1 solutionThe consistent dependent system has infinitely many solutions

An inconsistent system has no solution

In the system of equations ax + by = c and dx + ey = f, if

a = d, b = e, and c = f, then the system is consistent dependent and has infinitely many solutionsa = d, b = e, and c ≠ f, then the system is inconsistent and has no solutiona ≠ d, and/or b ≠ e, and/or c ≠ f, and  [tex]\frac{a}{d}[/tex] ≠ [tex]\frac{b}{e}[/tex] , then the system is consistent independent and has exactly one solution 

x - 2y = 0

∴ The coefficient of x ⇒ a = 1

∴ The coefficient of y ⇒ b = -2

∴ The numerical term ⇒ c = 0

∵ 3x + 4y - 20 = 0

→ Add 20 to both sides

∴ 3x + 4y - 20 + 20 = 0 + 20

3x + 4y = 20

∵ The coefficient of x ⇒ d = 3

∵ The coefficient of y ⇒ e = 4

∵ The numerical term ⇒ f = 20

a ≠ d

b ≠ e

c ≠ f

∵  [tex]\frac{a}{d}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

∵  [tex]\frac{b}{e}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{-2}{4}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{-1}{2}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{a}{d}[/tex][tex]\frac{b}{e}[/tex]

→ By using rule 3 above

The pair of equations is consistent

Houses cost £150000 one year ago


They now cost £


This is a 25% increase

Answers

Answer:

£187,500

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of houses one year ago = £150000

Percent increase a year after = 25%

Increment = 25% * 150000

Increment = 0.25 * 150000

Increment = £37500

New cost of house after increment =  £150000+ £37500

New cost of house after increment = £187,500

Answers

Answer:

36° and 54°

Step-by-step explanation:

Let one of the acute angle be "x"

We are told that the other acute angle is 1.5 times the other angle = 1.5x

The right angle = 90°

Find the value of x:

Therefore:

90 + 1.5x + x = 180 (sum of interior angles of triangle)

Add like terms

90 + 2.5x = 180

2.5x = 180 - 90

2.5x = 90

x = 90/2.5

x = 36° (one acute angle)

✔️Second acute angle = 1.5x

Plug in the value of x

= 1.5(36)

= 54°

Solve the equation for all values of x by completing the square.

The cost of a car rental is ​$25 per day plus 22 per mile. You are on a daily budget of ​$90. Write and solve an inequality to find the greatest distance you can drive each day while staying within your budget. Use pencil and paper. Find 2 other​ two-step inequalities with the same solutions.

Answers

Answer: You can drive, at most, 2.95 miles per day.

x ≤ 2.95

Step-by-step explanation:

In a single day, you can spend at most $90

Then if C represents the cost of renting the car, then we will have the inequality:

C ≤ $90

Now let's find the equation for C.

We know that we have a fixed cost of $25 plus $22 per mile, then if you drive x miles, the total cost will be $25 plus x times $22, or:

C = $25 + x*$22.

We can now replace that in the inequality:

$25 + x*$22 ≤ $90

Now let's isolate the variable x

x*$22 ≤ $90 - $25

x*$22 ≤ $65

x ≤ $65/$22 = 2.95

x ≤ 2.95

You can drive at most, 2.95 miles per day.

To find other inequalities with the same solution we can start with the solution:

x ≤ 2.95

Now let's multiply both sides by a number (the units of the number can be dollars, in that way we can make a similar problem)

Let's multiply both sides by $10:

x*$10 ≤ 2.95*$10 = $29.5

x*$10 ≤ $29.5

Now let's add the same number in both sides, for example, $5.

x*$10 + $5 ≤ $29.5 + $5 = $34.5

x*$10 + $5 ≤ $34.5

We could write this problem as:

"To rent a cab in your city, you have an initial cost of $5, plus $10 for each mile driven. How many miles could you drive if at most you can spend $34.50?"

You could be more creative with the problem, but this is the way in which you can craft problems of this type when you already know the solution.

What is the solution to 3|-3x+9|=-18? ​

Answers

Key skills: Absolute Value, Division, One Variable Equation

1) We have the equation 3|-3x+9|=-18

2) First, divide by 3 on both sides.

-18/3 is -6

3) This means --> |-3x+9| = -6

Consider the parametric equations x = 4cos(t) – 3 and y = 5sin(t) + 2. What is the rectangular form?

Answers

Answer: C on edge

Step-by-step explanation:

The rectangular form of the parametric equations x = 4cos(t) – 3 and y = 5sin(t) + 2 is shown in the option third, option third is correct.

What are parametric equations?

A parametric equation in mathematics specifies a set of numbers as functions of one or more independent variables known as parameters.

The missing options are in the attached picture please refer to the picture.

We have two parametric equations:

x = 4cos(t) – 3 and

y = 5sin(t) + 2

From the options plug x and y values in the equation:

[tex]\rm \dfrac{(x+3)^2}{16}+\dfrac{(y-2)^2}{25}=1\\[/tex]

[tex]\rm \dfrac{(4cos(t)-3+3)^2}{16}+\dfrac{(5sin(t)+2-2)^2}{25}=1\\[/tex]

[tex]\rm \dfrac{(4cos(t))^2}{16}+\dfrac{(5sin(t))^2}{25}=1\\[/tex]

cos²t + sin²t = 1  (true)

Thus, the rectangular form of the parametric equations x = 4cos(t) – 3 and y = 5sin(t) + 2 is shown in the option third, option third is correct.

To edit a manuscript, Miguel charges 12 dollars per hour for the first 4 hours and 15 dollars per hour after the first 4 hours. Write an expression for the amount, in dollars, Miguel charges if it takes him t hours to edit a manuscript, where t>4 ?

Answers

Answer:

C = 12 + 15(x - 4)

C = 15x - 48

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of hours = t

The total amount Miguel earns =

C

To edit a manuscript, Miguel charges 12 dollars per hour for the first 4 hours and 15 dollars per hour after the first 4 hours.

C = 12 + 15(x - 4)

Expand the t

C = 12 + 15x - 60

C = 15x - 48

Therefore, an expression for the amount, in dollars, Miguel charges if it takes him t hours to edit a manuscript, where t>4 is given as:

C = 15x - 48
