The school athletic director had a budget of $500 to purchase 164 items
for the soccer team. She purchased vests for $2.50 each, soccer balls for
$9.25 each, and cones for $0.75 each. She purchased 40 more cones than
balls. How many of each item can purchase?
Answer: She purchased 72 cones, 32 balls, and 60 vests.
Step-by-step explanation:
The total number of items is 164.
The price of the vests is $2.50 each.
The price of the soccer balls is $9.25 each.
The price of the cones is $0.75 each.
The total budget was $500.
If V is the number of vests, B the number of balls, and C the number of cones, we have that:
V + B + C = 164.
V*$2.50 + B*$9.25 + C*$0.75 = $500.
and:
"She purchased 40 more cones than balls."
C = B + 40.
Then we have a system of 3 equations and 3 variables:
V + B + C = 164.
V*$2.50 + B*$9.25 + C*$0.75 = $500.
C = B + 40.
Here the first step is to replace the third equation into the other two, in this way we eliminate one variable and one equation:
V + B + (B + 40) = 164
V*$2.50 + B*$9.25 + (B + 40)*$0.75 = $500.
Now we want to isolate one variable in one of the equations, i will isolate V in the first equation:
V = 164 - 2*B - 40 = 124 - 2*B
Now i can replace this into the other equation:
(124 - 2*B)*$2.50 + B*$9.25 + (B + 40)*$0.75 = $500
Now let's solve this for B.
$310 - $5*B + B*$9.25 + B*$0.75 + $30 = $500
B*( $9.25 - $5 + $0.75) = $500 - $310 - $30
B*$5 = $160
B = 160/5 = 32
Now we know the value of B.
And by the equations above:
V = 124 -2*B = 124 - 2*32 = 60
C = B + 40 = 32 + 40 = 72.
Then:
She purchased 72 cones, 32 balls and 60 vests.

If you bought something in Wyoming for $54, you would be charged $3.56 in state sales tax. What is the
state sales tax rate in Wyoming?
Insert your answer as a percentage to the tenth WITHOUT the % symbol.
Question 8
2 pts
Answer:
6.6
Step-by-step explanation:
The way to do this is to find the tax as a decimal. Worry about the 100 later.
54 * x = 3.56
Divide by 54
x = 3.56/54
x = .06593
Now use the 100
0.06592 * 100 = 6.593
But you want it rounded to the 1/10
So you should get 6.6 %

A middle school has 2 girls for every 1 boy in seventh grade. The seventh-grade class
has 28 fewer students than the eighth-grade class, which has 298 students. How many
girls are in seventh grade?
Answer:
180 girls
Step-by-step explanation:
298-28=270
270 divided by 3 = 90
90+90 = 180
so there are 180 girls and only 90 boys

Find the slope of the line tangent to the graph of (x^2)-((xy)^(1/2))=(2y^2)+3x at the point (4,1).
Compute [tex]\frac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}[/tex] using implicit differentiation:
[tex]x^2-(xy)^{1/2}=2y^2+3x[/tex]
[tex]\dfrac{\mathrm d(x^2)}{\mathrm dx}-\dfrac{\mathrm d(xy)^{1/2}}{\mathrm dx}=\dfrac{\mathrm d(2y^2)}{\mathrm dx}+\dfrac{\mathrm d(3x)}{\mathrm dx}[/tex]
[tex]2x-\dfrac1{2(xy)^{1/2}}\left(\dfrac{\mathrm dx}{\mathrm dx}y+x\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}\right)=4y\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}+3[/tex]
[tex]2x-\dfrac1{2(xy)^{1/2}}\left(y+x\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}\right)=4y\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}+3[/tex]
[tex]2x-\dfrac12\left(\dfrac yx\right)^{1/2}-\dfrac12\left(\dfrac xy\right)^{1/2}\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}=4y\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}+3[/tex]
[tex]2x-3-\dfrac12\left(\dfrac yx\right)^{1/2}=\left(4y+\dfrac12\left(\dfrac xy\right)^{1/2}\right)\right)\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}[/tex]
[tex]4x-6-\left(\dfrac yx\right)^{1/2}=\left(8y+\left(\dfrac xy\right)^{1/2}\right)\right)\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}[/tex]
[tex]\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}=\dfrac{4x-6-\left(\frac yx\right)^{1/2}}{8y+\left(\frac xy\right)^{1/2}}[/tex]
[tex]\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}=\dfrac{4x(xy)^{1/2}-6(xy)^{1/2}-y}{8y(xy)^{1/2}+x}[/tex]

Which of the following inequalities is graphed on the coordinate plane?
Answer: A
Step-by-step explanation:
This picture is very blurry, but the line appears to be a solid line. Since it is a solid line, it tells us that the inequality is ≤ or ≥. We can eliminate C and D. Now, the difference between A and B is the shading. Since the shading is showing that the numbers are increasing, we know that the inequality is ≥. Therefore, A is the correct answer.

After a 90% reduction, you purchase a new soft drink machine on sale for $64. What was the original price of the soft drink machine?
Answer:
$640
Step-by-step explanation:
Let [tex]x[/tex] equal the original price of the machine.
We know that $64 is 10% of [tex]x[/tex] because $64 is left of [tex]x[/tex] after the 90% reduction.
Set up an equation:
[tex].10x=64[/tex]
Divide by the coefficient of [tex]x[/tex], which in this case is [tex].10[/tex]
[tex]x=640[/tex]
Irving Manz works for Ben’s Food Mart. He is paid weekly on the basis of a 40-hour week at the rate of $8.95 an hour with time-and-a-half for overtime. During one week he works 49.5 hours. What was Irving’s time-and-a-half pay rate an hour?
Answer:
Irving earned about $363.00 during the week.
Step-by-step explanation:
Irving’s time-and-a-half pay rate an hour =$485.54
What is Unitary method?The unitary method is a technique for solving a problem by first finding the value of a single unit, and then finding the necessary value by multiplying the single unit value.
Given:
Payment for one hour = $8.95
So, paid for 40 hours
=40*$8.95
= $358.00
Now for -a-half overtime
=$8.95*1.5
= $13.425
Now, for extra 9.5 hours
=$13.425*9.5
=$127.5375
Hence, Irving’s time-and-a-half pay rate an hour
=127.5375+358.00
=$485.54

Calculate the average speed between 0 s and 20 s
Answer:
2 m/s
Step-by-step explanation:
Notice that the slope of the time period from 0s to 20s is linear. This means we can simply look at the distance traveled over the amount of time. So the distance and time both start at 0. At 20s, the distance is 40m.
So we can say the following to find the slope:
(40m - 0m) / (20s - 0s) == 40m / 20s == 2 m/s
Hence, the average speed between 0s and 20s is 2m/s.

¿Cuántas libras de café “La Finca” que se vende a $5 la libra debe mezclarse con 80 libras decafé común que se vende a $2 la libra, para hacer una mezcla que se venda a $3 la libra?
Answer:
Necesitamos agregar 40 libras del café La Finca
Step-by-step explanation:
Sea x el número de libras de café de La Finca a mezclar.
Entonces, la cantidad total de libras que obtendremos en la mezcla será (x + 80) libras.
Ahora trabajemos con los precios; Tenemos x libras de La Finca a $ 5 por libra, con 80 libras de café a $ 2 por libra para dar una mezcla de (x + 80) a $ 3 Así, sumaremos el precio de La Finca más la otra variante para llegar al costo de la nueva mezcla.
Matemáticamente;
5 (x) + 2 (80) = 3 (x + 80)
5x + 160 = 3x + 240
5x -3x = 240-160
2x = 80
x = 80/2 x = 40

Mickey used these calculations to find how much he would spend on 7 cartons of eggs, if 12 cartons of eggs cost $22.20. Describe his error.
12 cartons(÷22.20)
$22.22(÷22.20)
Unit price = $0.54
$0.54(7) = $3.78
Answer ; Mickey set up the equivalent rate wrong. The cartons of eggs should be in the denominator, because you need to find the unit price for 1 carton of eggs.
Answer: you would divide the total price of $22.20 by the amount of cartons, which is 12, giving you the unit rate of $1.85 per carton. the unit rate, $1.85 multiplied by 7 is $12.95, so it would cost $12.95 for 7 cartons of eggs

There are 6 black marbles, 14 blue marbles, 8 white marbles,
and 12 clear marbles in a bag. If Andy chooses a second marble
without replacing the first marble, what is P(black, then clear)?
Answer:
3/65 = 0.046 = 4.6%
Step-by-step explanation:
Notice that the total number of marbles is:
6 + 14 + 8 + 12 = 40
Then , the probability of getting a black marble first is 6/40 = 3/20
Now, since the experiment is without replacing, he is left with a total of 39 marbles in the bag, and the probability of getting a clear one is now 12/39
The total probability is the product of these two:
(3/20) x (12/39) = 3/65 = 0.046 = 4.6%
