A football team scored a total of 50 points in one game. They scored 14 times. The scoring
was made up of touchdowns (6 points each), field goals (3 points each), and PATS (1 point
each). They had 3 more touchdowns than field goals. How many of each type of score did the
team have?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Touchdowns: 6

Field goals: 3

PATS: 5

Step-by-step explanation:

6*6 = 36

3*3 = 9

5*1 = 5

9+5+36 = 50 points

6+3+5 = 14 scored times

Answer 2

Answers:

6 touchdowns (TD)

3 field goals (FG)

5 points after touchdown (PAT)

===============================================

Explanation:

Acronyms used in football

PAT = point after touchdownTD = touchdownFG = field goal

Define the following variables

x = number of TDsy = number of FGsz = number of PATs

"They had 3 more touchdowns than field goals", so,

TD = FG + 3

x = y + 3

They scored 14 times which means we can say

x+y+z = 14

Let's look at the point breakdown per type of score

TDs give 6 points each. Scoring x of them gives 6x pointsFGs give 3 points each. Scoring y of them gives 3y pointsPATs give 1 point each. Scoring z of them gives 1z points

Then we can add up those expressions to get us to 6x+3y+1z = 50 points total. This is the same as saying 6x+3y+z = 50.

--------------------------

Here's our system of equations

x = y+3

x+y+z = 14

6x+3y+z = 50

Let's replace each x with y+3 in the second equation. Then solve for z.

x+y+z = 14

y+3+y+z = 14

2y+z = 14-3

2y+z = 11

z = 11-2y

Now replace every x with y+3 in the third original equation

6x+3y+z = 50

6(y+3)+3y+z = 50

6y+18+3y+z = 50

9y+z = 50-18

9y+z = 32

Then plug in z = 11-2y and solve for y

9y+z = 32

9y+11-2y = 32

7y+11 = 32

7y = 32-11

7y = 21

y = 21/7

y = 3 is the number of FGs scored

Use this to find z

z = 11-2y

z = 11-2(3)

z = 11-6

z = 5 is the number of PATs scored

Now let's find x

x = y+3

x = 3+3

x = 6 is the number of TDs scored

--------------------------

Checking the answers:

x+y+z = 6+3+5 = 9+5 = 14 times they scored

6x+3y+z = 6*6+3*3+5 = 36+9+5 = 50 points scored

There are 3 more TDs than FGs since x = y+3 leads to 6 = 3+3 which is a true statement.

All three original equations we set up for the system of equations are true. Therefore, the final answers are confirmed.

Answers

The correct answer is The complete price (minus returns) is due within 30 days, or a 2 percent discount for payments made within 10 days.

2. Net Sales are Going Up.

Explanation:

1. The breakdown of a company's sales discounts with terms 2/10, n/30 is as follows:

The % discount is represented by 2,

You must pay the business within 10 days to be eligible for the discount.

If you were unable to pay the corporation within the first 10 days, you would have had n/30 days to do so. You are not eligible for the discount if you pay during this time frame after the first 10 days.

Consequently, the parameters of the sales discount mentioned above are a 2 percent discount for payment within 10 days, or the full amount (less returns) due within 30 days.

2. As goods are returned and risk must be managed, sales returns and sales allowances have the impact of lowering the net sales total. Therefore, if they decrease, net sales increase.

A decrease in the credit card company's discount also causes a rise in sales because it increases the amount made per sale or transaction and decreases the amount the company must provide in discounts.

(1991,

Answers

The largest possible number of red socks in the drawer that is consistent with this data is 990.

To solve the given question, we will form equations according to the given data including a known and an unknown variable.

Let r be the number of socks that are red, and t be the total number of socks.

We get,

2(r(r-1)+(t-r)(t-r-1))=t(t-1)

Expanding the left hand side and the right hand side

we get,

4r^2-4rt+2t^2-2t = t^2-t

moving the terms, we will get that

4r^2-4rt+t^2 = t

We notice that the left side is a perfect square.

(2r-t)^2 = t

Thus t is a perfect square.

And, the higher t is, the higher r will be. So, we should set

t = 44^2

= 1936

we see, 2r-1936 = 44

We will use the positive root, to get that

2r-1936 = 44,

2r = 1980

r = 990

Therefore, we can conclude that the largest possible number of red socks in the drawer that is consistent with this data is 990.

A pet store clerk suggested 5 small fish for a 6-gallon fish tank. What size tank would be suggested to hold 40 small fish?

33-gallon tank
48-gallon tank
160-gallon tank
200-gallon tank

Answers

The size of the tank would be suggested to hold 40 small fish is 48 gallons. (Solved using ratios)

What is a ratio?

A ratio in mathematics illustrates how many times one number contains another. For example, if a dish of fruit contains seven apples and six lemons, the apple-to-lemon ratio is seven to six. Similarly, the proportion of lemons to oranges is 6:7, while the proportion of oranges to overall fruit is 8:14. (or 4:7). A ratio can be defined by providing both constituent integers, which are written as "a to b" or "a:b," or by providing only the value of their quotient a/b. Equal quotients result in equal ratios. A and B are frequently referred to as ratio words, with A being the antecedent and B being the consequent.

This can be solved using ratios

size of tank = 40x6/5 = 48 gallon

The size of the tank would be suggested to hold 40 small fish is 48 gallons.

Ms. Maglione wants to join a gym. The gym wants to charge Ms. Maglione a one
time membership fee for this year of $125 that will cover maintenance and
upkeep of the gym. The cost per month to be a member will be $15. Which
equation best models this situation?

Answers

The linear equation that best models the situation is: y = 15x + 125.

How to Write a Linear Equation that Models a Situation?

To write a linear equation, you need to determine the value of the unit rate or slope (m), and the value of the y-intercept or starting value (b). The linear equation in slope-intercept form that models the relationship between two variables x and y is expressed as, y = mx + b.

From the information given, we have:

The one-time membership fee is the starting value or y-intercept (b) = $125The cost per month to be a member is the unit rate or slope (m) = $15

Let y represent total cost

let x represents number of months.

To write the linear equation that models this situation, substitute m = 15 and b = 125 into y = mx + b:

y = 15x + 125.

A cup of popcorn at the movie theater sells for $0.25 per cubic inch. A medium sized popcorn is served in a cylindrical cup that is 6 inches in height and 4 inches in diameter. How much would it cost to the nearest cent?
PLEASE HELP :(!

Answers

Surface area - The cost of medium popcorn will be $473.25.

What is surface area?

The surface area of a three-dimensional object is the space taken up by its outer surface.
For instance,
The surface area of a cube is what we need to calculate the amount of paint needed to paint it. It is consistently expressed in square units.

The surface area of the cylinder with the top open = πr(r + 2h)

we are given that,

r = 2in

h = 6in

taking π as 3.14, and substituting these vales in the above equation,

surface area = π x 2 (2 x 2 x 6)

= 3.14 x 2 (2 x 2 x 6)

= 1893in²

cost = 1893 x 0.25

= $473.25
