A small bag of trail mix contains 3 cups of dried fruit and 4 cups of almonds. A large bag contains $4 1/2 cups of dried fruit and 6 cups of almonds. Write and solve a system of linear equations to find the price of 1 cup of dried fruit and 1 cup of almonds. Let f represent the price of one cup of dried fruit and let a represent the price of one cup of almonds.What is the equation for the small bag and the large bag.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Let's call:

f = price of 1 cup of dried fruit

a = price of 1 cup of almonds

In order to build the linear system, you need to consider that the total price of a bag is given by the sum of the price of cups times the number of cups in each bag, therefore:

Solve for a in first equation:

a = (6 - 3f) / 4

Then substitute in the second equation:

41/2 f + 6 · (6 - 3f) / 4 = 9

41/2 f + 9 - 9/2 f = 9

16 f = 0

f = 0

Now, substitute this value in the formula found for a:

a = (6 - 3·0) / 4

  = 3/2 = 1.5

Hence, the cups of dried fruit are free and 1 cup of almond costs 1.5$

thirty tickets were sold for a concert, some at 60 cent and the rest is at $1. If the total was raised to $22, how many had the cheaper tickets.

Answers

Answer:

20

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question we can use a system of linear equations. The 2 equations should represent- 1) the number of total tickets sold and 2) the total amount raised. So, the two equations look like this (in this situation, let x stand for the cheaper tickets and y for the more expensive ones).

x+y=300.6x+1y=22

Then, there are multiple ways to solve this including graphing, elimination, and substitution. In my opinion, substitution is the best for this situation.

Firstly, isolate the y variable in the first equation

y=30-x

Next, plug in this value for y in the second equation

0.6x+(30-x)=22

Then, solve this equation algebraically

x=20

Since x stands for the cheaper tickets, we know that 20 people bought the cheaper tickets.

A bird leaves its nest and travels 20 miles per hour downwind for x hours. On the return trip, the bird travels 4 miles per hour slower and has 6 miles left after x hours.

a. What is the distance of the entire trip?

miles

b. How long does the entire trip take?

hours
minutes and
seconds

Answers

Answer:

The correct answers are:

A) 60 miles; and B) 3.375 hours.

Explanation:

We will use the equation d = rt for this.

For the first leg of the trip, the bird travels 20 miles per hour for x hours.  This gives us the equation

d = 20x

For the return trip, the bird travels 4 miles per hour slower, so 20-4 = 16 miles per hour.  He also travels 6 miles less than the return distance, for x hours:

d-6 = 16x

To isolate d, we will add 6 to each side:

d-6+6 = 16x+6

d = 16x+6

We will set the two equations equal to one another, since they both equal d:

20x = 16x+6

Subtract 16x from each side:

20x-16x = 16x+6-16x

4x = 6

Divide both sides by 4:

4x/4 = 6/4

x = 1.5

He travels for 1.5 hours both times.

The first time, 1.5 hours at 20 miles per hour is:

d = 1.5(20) = 30 miles

The original trip is 30 miles.  This makes the entire trip 30(2) = 60 miles.

On the return trip, he travels 30-6 = 24 miles at 16 miles per hour:

24 = 16x

Divide both sides by 16:

24/16 = 16x/16

1.5 = x

If he goes 24 miles in 1.5 hours at 16 miles per hour, we can use a proportion to find the time it takes for the entire return trip:

24/1.5 = 30/x

Cross multiplying,

24*x = 1.5(30)

24x = 45

24x/24 = 45/24

x = 1.875

This gives him a total time of 1.5+1.875 = 3.375 hours

[tex]\frac{h_1}{h_2} =\frac{5}{3}[/tex]

The volume are in the ratio [tex]20:27[/tex]

[tex]\frac{V_1}{V_2} =\frac{20}{27}\\\\\frac{\pi r_1^2h_1}{\pi r_2^2h_2} =\frac{20}{27}\\\\\frac{ r_1^2}{ r_2^2}\times \frac{3}{5} =\frac{20}{27}\\\\\frac{ r_1^2}{ r_2^2} =\frac{4}{9}\\\\\frac{ r_1}{ r_2} =\frac{2}{3}[/tex]

The ratio of their radius is [tex]2:3[/tex]

Answer:

2 : 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

Radius of cylinder 1 = R

Radius of cylinder 2 = r

Now,

We know that

Volume of cylinder = πr²h

=> πR²h/πr²h' = 20/27

=> R² × 5/r² × 3 = 20/27

=> R²/r² = 20/27 × 3/5

=> R²/r² = 4/9

=> R/r = √(4/9)

=> R/r = 2/3

=> R : r = 2 : 3

Student Council sponsors weekly dances at their school on Friday nights. The admission price for each person is $4 for Student Council members. Members pay an annual fee of $50 for membership dues. How much will a member pay if they attend 15 dances during the school year.

15*4=$60

Answers

Answer:

y = -3/2x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Since you know it has a point at (0, 2) - the y intercept, put those values into the equation and solve. To be perpendicular it seems the reciprocal of the slope with the opposite sign, so 2/3 is the original slope, and -3/2 becomes the new slope.

y = 2/3x + 8 becomes

2 = -3/2(0) + b  We substitute in the x and y values, but we have to figure out what the last number will be.

2 = 0 + b
