Frank bought 6 pens and 3 highlighters in the school store and paid $21 for the whole purchase. His friend , Andy paid $19 for 2 pens and 4 highlighters. If all pens cost the same and all highlighter cost the same, what is the price of one pen?

Answers

Answer 1

The price of one pen will be $1.5 and one highlighter is $4.

What is an expression?

Expression in maths is defined as the collection of the numbers variables and functions by using signs like addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.

Given that:-

Frank bought 6 pens and 3 highlighters in the school store and paid $21 for the whole purchase.His friend, Andy paid $19 for 2 pens and 4 highlighters.

The cost of the pen and the highlighter will be calculated by forming the two expressions from the given data in the question the expressions are as follows:-

6p  +  3h  = 21

2p  +  4 h = 19

Solving the above linear equations by elimination method:-

( 6p  +  3h  = 21 ) x 2

( 2p  +  4 h = 19 ) x 6

The new equations are:-

12p  + 6h  =  42

12p  + 24h  = 114

Substracting the below equation from the above equation we will get:-

6h - 24h  =  -72

-18 h = -72

h  =  $4

Put the value of h in any of the above equations:-

2p  +  4 h = 19

2p  +  4 ( 4 )  = 19

2p  +  16  =  19

p  =  3 / 2

P  = $1.5

Therefore the price of one pen will be $1.5 and one highlighter is $4.

B: 2 1/2 feet by 5 feet
C: 2 1/4 feet by 4 1/4 feet
D: 2 1/2 feet by 4 1/2 feet

Answers

Since the paper representing her desk is 1 1/4 inches by 2 1/4 inches, the actual dimensions of her desk are D: 2 ¹/₂ ft by 4 ¹/₂ ft

To answer the question, we need to know what scale is

What is a scale?

A scale is the ratio of two dimension and it is given on a scale drawing.

Given that Chelsea makes a scale drawing of the room and cuts out pieces of paper to represent her furniture, and the paper representing her desk is 1 1/4 inches by 2 1/4 inches.

Since on the scale, we have 1/2 in = 1 foot ⇒ 1 in = 2 ft

Actual dimensions of desk

So, the actual dimensions of her desk are

1 ¹/₄ in by 2 ¹/₄ in = 5/4 in by 9/4 in

= 5/4 × 1 in by 9/4 × 1 in

= 5/4 × 2 ft by 9/4 × 2 ft

= 5/2 ft by 9/2 ft

= 2 ¹/₂ ft by 4 ¹/₂ ft

So, the actual dimensions of her desk are D: 2 ¹/₂ ft by 4 ¹/₂ ft

(3+13-10)+14÷2+4 how do you solve this ?

Answers

Answer: 17

Step-by-step explanation:

Don't forget about PEMDAS. (parentheses, exponents, multiplication, division, addition, subtraction)

Start with parentheses

(3+13-10)... 13+3= 16, 16-10=6 ...

so (3+13-10)=6

Now we have...

6 + 14 / 2 + 4

No exponents so we go on.

no multiplication so we go on

Now division...

14 / 2 = 7 because 7 x 2 = 14

Now we have...

6 + 7 + 4

now we do addition, addition is commutative so you can add it in any order you want

6 + 7 = 13, 13 + 4 = 17

therefore, the answer is 17

Answers

Answer:

x=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation:

8^x= 1/64

Ensure both sides of the equation are in power format by changing 1/64

1/64 = 64^-1

8^x = 64^-1

2^3(x) = 2^6(-1)

The bases will cancel out each other

3(x) = 6(-1)

3x = -6

x = -6/3

x = -2

Check

8^x = 1/64

x = -2

8^-2

= 1/8²

= 1/8*8

= 1/64

James defines a circle as "the set of all the points equidistant from a given point." His statement is not precise enough

because he should specify that

A circle includes its diameter

The set of points is in a plane

What is a circle?

A circle is a two-dimensional geometry on the plane having a center point and the circular line is drawn equidistant from the center point.

Based on James' definition of a circle, he needed to specify that the points are in a plane (option c).

As presented in his definition "the set of all the points" can be interpreted in several ways. Some of which are:

the set of points on a line

the set of points in a plane

the set of points in a region

Write an equation of the parabola in vertex form that passes through ( 3 , -2 ) and has a vertex of ( 5,8 )

Answers

Answer:

Parabola in vertex form: y = a(x - h)2 + k

Vertex: (h, k) = (3, 2) and (x, y) = (13, 8)

y = a(x - h)2 + k

y = a(x - 3)2 + 2 <== with substitution (h, k) = (3, 2)

8 = a(13 - 3)2 + 2 <== with substitution (x, y) = (13, 8)

8 = a(10)2 + 2

100a = 8 - 2 ==> 100a = 6 ==> a = 6/100 ==> a = 3/50

Parabola in vertex form: y = a(x - h)2 + k

y = (3/50)(x - 3)2 + 2  (Final Answer - Parabola in vertex form)

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

Hi,

Step-by-step explanation:

Parabola has the equation:

y=k*(x-5)²+8

if x=3, y=-2: -2=k*(-2)²+8 ==> 4k=-10==> k=-5/2

So y=-5/2(x-5)²+8
