5 hockey pucks and three hockey sticks cost $23. 5 hockey pucks and 1 hockey stick cost $20. How much does 1 hockey puck cost?
Answer:
$3.65
Step-by-step explanation:
The two purchases describe relations between quantity and price that can be used to write a system of equations for the prices of the hockey pucks and hockey sticks. These equations can be solved to find the price of a hockey puck.
__
setupLet x and y represent the prices of a hockey puck and a hockey stick, respectively. The two purchase values are ...
5x +3y = 23.50
5x +y = 20.00
solutionRearranging the second equation, we have an expression for y:
y = 20.00 -5x . . . . . . subtract 5x from both sides
Substituting this into the first equation gives ...
5x +3(20.00 -5x) = 23.50 . . . . . substitute for y
-10x +60.00 = 23.50 . . . . . . simplify
x -6.00 = -2.35 . . . . . . . . divide by -10
x = 3.65 . . . . . . . . . . . add 6
One hockey puck costs $3.65.
The theoretical probability of selecting a consonant at random from a list of
letters in the alphabet is 21. Wayne opens a book, randomly selects a letter on
the page, and records thé fetter. He repeats the experiment 200 times. He Fins
(consonant) = 60%. How does the theoretical probability differ from the
experimental probability? What are some possible sources for this discrepancy?
Vowels = {a, e, i, o, u}
There are 5 vowels out of 26 letters in the English alphabet. This leaves 26-5 = 21 consonants.
The theoretical probability of getting a consonant is 21/26 = 0.8077 = 80.77% approximately
Wayne found the empirical probability of a consonant as 60% which is quite a distance away from the 80.77% mentioned. The discrepancy is likely because vowels are tended to be used quite often in many words.
Words that are composed of consonants only are quite rare, but they do happen. Example: "fly" is a word with only consonants. I'm considering y to be a consonant.
Ernest’s favorite lunch is a turkey, lettuce, and tomato sandwich Ernest can make the sandwich using either white bread or wheat bread Sometimes he adds cheese, pickles, or mayonnaise in any combination, but other times he doesn’t add anything Ernest says that there are 8 different ways to make his favorite sandwich Is he correct? Explain
Answer:
Ernest is wrong, because the sandwich can be made in 6 different ways (lunch > sandwich: white bread > cheese, pickles, mayonnaise ; wheat bread > cheese, pickles, mayonnaise) and the lunch can be made in 8 different ways.
1) the length of a rectangle is equal to triple the width. if the perimeter of the rectangle is 86 centimeters, what
are its dimensions?
Step-by-step explanation:
the perimeter is
2×length + 2×width = 86
length = 3×width
now we use the second equation as variable identity in the first equation :
2×3×width + 2×width = 86
6×width + 2×width = 86
8×width = 86
width = 86/8 = 43/4 = 10.75 cm
length = 3×width = 3×10.75 = 32.25 cm

Solve the equation for x
z=m+x-y a)x=-z+m+y b)x=z-m+y c)x=z+m-y d)x=z+y+m
Answer:
x = z - m + y
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
[tex]\displaystyle \large{z = m+x-y}[/tex]
To solve for x-term, we have to isolate it. We can do by subtracting m-term both sides and add y-term both sides.
[tex]\displaystyle \large{z-m+y=m+x-y-m+y}\\\\\displaystyle \large{z-m+y=x}\\\\\displaystyle \large{x=z-m+y}[/tex]
Therefore, the answer to this question is x = z - m + y

The Ratio of two numbers is 3/5, and their sum is 104. What are the 2 numbers?
Answer:
39 and 65
Step-by-step explanation:
the ratio of the two numbers is 3 : 5
sum the parts of the ratio, 3 + 5 = 8 parts
divide the sum by 8 to find the value of one part of the ratio
104 ÷ 8 = 13 ← value of 1 part of the ratio , then
3 parts = 3 × 13 = 39
5 parts = 5 × 13 = 65
the two numbers are 39 and 65

Which equation is equivalent to 19x+12y=17?
y=−19/12x+17/12y
y=−19x+17
y=−17/12x+19/12
y=19/12x+17/12
19x+12y=17
step 1: move the thing that you're looking for to the left side and all the rest to the right side:
(19x +12y)-19x = 17 -19x
12y = 17 -19x
step 2: to find y, you need to get rid of 12. to do so you need to devide everything by that number:
(12y)/12 = 17/12 -19/12 x
y= 17/12 -19/12 x
step 3: simplify of possible. ( in this exercise it isnt)
step 4: rearange the equation if necessary
y= 17/12 + -19/12x
y= -19/12x + 17/12

range: [1,7] , if both ends of the line are arrows it means the line goes from negative infinity to positive infinity (which means range is all real numbers) , but if the point is include just like this graph the points will be also include in range , but if the points are an empty circle the points won't be include for writing range

What are the coordinates of the image of vertex G after
a reflection across the line y = x?
O (-4,-5)
O (4, 5)
O (-5,4)
O (5, 4)
Answer:
(- 5, 4 )
Step-by-step explanation:
under a reflection in the line y = x
a point (x, y ) → (y, x ) , then
G (4, - 5 ) → G' (- 5, 4 )
The coordinates of the image of vertex G are (-5, 4)
What is line of reflection?When reflecting a figure in a line or in a point, the image is congruent to the pre image. A reflection maps every point of a figure to an image across a fixed line. The fixed line is called the line of reflection.
here, we have,
Let us revise some cases of reflection
If the point (x, y) reflected across the x-axis , then its image is (x, -y)
If the point (x, y) reflected across the y-axis , then its image is (-x, y)
If the point (x, y) reflected across the line y = x , then its image is (y, x)
If the point (x, y) reflected across the line y = -x , then its image is (-y, -x)
From the given figure
∵ The line of the reflection is y = x
→ That means we will switch the coordinates of the point to find its image
∵ The coordinates of vertex G are (4, -5)
∴ The x-coordinate = 4 and the y-coordinate = -5
→ Switch the two coordinates
∴ The coordinates of its image G' are (-5, 4)
∴ The coordinates of the image of vertex G are (-5, 4)

According to a study, 45% of americans have type o blood. if a random number generator produces three-digit values from 000 to 999, which values would represent those having type o blood
The values that represent those having type O blood are the values from 000 to 449.
How to determine what range of the RNG should we use?
RNG refers to a random number generator, this means that from 000 to 999 (a total of 1000 numbers) each has the same probability of being randomly selected by the program.
Then, if we want to represent a probability of the 45%, then 0.45 of the number of elements must be assigned to what we want to represent (having type O blood).
0.45*1000 = 450
Then we can assign the first 450 numbers to have type O blood, the first 450 numbers are: {000, 001, ..., 449}
So the values that represent those having type O blood are the values from 000 to 449.

2x × 3 = 65 + x
6x = 65 + x
6x - x = 65
5x = 65
divide both sides by 5x = 65/5
x = 13

A six-sided die is rolled seven times. What is the probability that the die will show an even number at least six times?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Explanation
On a 6 sided die, there are three even numbers (2,4,6)
That's 1/2 the number on the die.
So getting 6 even numbers is
P(6) = 1/2 * 1/2 * 1/2 * 1/2 * 1/2 * 1/2 * 1/2 = 0.00781
Where did that extra 1/2 come from? Well one of the numbers thrown was an odd number, and it has to be counted.
P(7) = the same answer. 0.00781
Total 0.0156
STATISTICS in a recent year the mean score on the mathematics section of the SAT test was 515 and the standard deviation was 114. This means that people within one deviation of the mean have SAT math scores that are no more than 114 points higher or 114 points lower than the mean A. write an absolute value inequality to find the range of SAT mathematics test scores within one standard deviation of the mean B. what is the range of SAT mathematics test scores 12 standard deviation from the mean?
An absolute value inequality to find the range of SAT mathematics test scores within one standard deviation of the mean is; |x – 515| ≤ 114
How to Write Inequalities?
A) We are told that;
Mean score = 515
Standard deviation = 114
We are now given that people within one deviation of the mean have SAT math scores that are no more than 114 points higher or 114 points lower than the mean. Thus, the absolute value inequality is;
|x – 515| ≤ 114
B) The range of scores to within ±2 standard deviations of the mean is;
Range = 515 ± 2(114)
