Michael breeds chickens and ducks.

Last month, he sold 50 chickens and 30 ducks for $550. This month, he sold 44 chickens and 36 ducks for $532.
How much does a chicken cost, and how much does a duck cost?
A chicken costs $_____ and a duck costs $_____.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Chicken:$8   Ducks:$5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's assume

Chickens= c

Ducks=d

50c + 30d = 550 (divide this by 10)--- 5c+3d=55

44c + 36d = 532 (divide this by 4)--- 11c+9d=133

Solving simultaneously:

5c + 3d = 55 (x9)

11c + 9d = 133 (x3)

45c + 27d = 495

33c + 27d = 399

By subtraction we get:

(45c-33c+27d-27d)= 96

12c = 96

Chicken = $ 8 (96/12)

Ducks: 50(8)+ 30d = 550

30d = 150

Ducks = $5 (150/30)

Answer:

[tex]\sum\limits_{i=1}^{n} c \cdot a_i \ is \ equal \ to \ c = \ c \cdot \sum\limits_{i=1}^{n} a_i[/tex]

[tex]\sum\limits_{i=1}^{n} i \ is \ equal \ to \ b = \dfrac{n \cdot (n + 1)}{2}[/tex]

[tex]\sum\limits_{i=1}^{n} c \ is \ equal \ to \ d = c \cdot n[/tex]

[tex]\sum\limits_{i=1}^{n} i^2 \ is \ equal \ to \ a = \dfrac{n \cdot (n + 1) \cdot (2 \cdot n + 1)}{6}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

1) The sum of a series of the cubes of numbers 'i' is given as follows;

Sₙ = n/2 × (1st term + Last term)

∴ Sₙ = n/2 × (1 + n) = n·(n + 1)/2

It can be shown that the sum of a series of the cubes of numbers 'i²' is given as follows;

Sₙ = (n·(n + 1)·(2·n + 1))/6

It can be also be shown that the sum of a series of the cubes of numbers 'i³' is given as follows;

Sₙ = (n·(n + 1)/2)²

Therefore, we have;

[tex]\sum\limits_{i=1}^{n} c \cdot a_i= c \cdot \sum\limits_{i=1}^{n} a_i = c[/tex]

[tex]\sum\limits_{i=1}^{n} i = \dfrac{n \cdot (n + 1)}{2} = b[/tex]

[tex]\sum\limits_{i=1}^{n} c = c \cdot n = d[/tex]

[tex]\sum\limits_{i=1}^{n} i^3 = \left [ \dfrac{n \cdot (n + 1)}{2} \right]^2 = e[/tex]

[tex]\sum\limits_{i=1}^{n} i^2 = \dfrac{n \cdot (n + 1) \cdot (2 \cdot n + 1)}{6} = a[/tex].

Jamie invests money. In the first year it increases to 110% of its original value.
He spends 20% of the profit on a cricket bat and 1/8 of the reminder on a cricket jumper.
He is left with £140 profit. How much did Jamie invest?

Answers

Answer:

£2000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the money invested be x.

After 1 year, the money is now 110% of x = 1.1x

Original amount of money: x

Profit in 1 year: 0.1x

He spends 20% of the profit on a cricket bat.

0.2 * 0.1x = 0.02x spent on cricket bat

The reminder of the profit is 0.8 * 0.1x = 0.08x

He spends 1/8 * 0.08x on a cricket jumper.

Amount of profit he has:

0.1x - 0.02x - 0.125 * 0.08x

This equals £140

0.1x - 0.02x - 0.125 * 0.08x = 140

0.08x - 0.01x = 140

0.07x = 140

x = 140/0.07

x = 2000

Given f(x)=sin x and g(x)=cos x, show that f(g(pi/2))=0. Show all your steps.

Answers

Answer:

f (g (pi / 2)) = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following functions:

f (x) = sin x

g (x) = cos x

The first thing we must do in this case is the composition of functions:

f (g (x))

By making the composition we have:

f (g (x)) = sin (cos x)

We evaluate for x = pi / 2:

f (g (pi / 2)) = sin (cos (pi / 2))

f (g (pi / 2)) = sin (0)

f (g (pi / 2)) = 0

Answers

Answer:

the amount financed is $16,000

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the amount financed is shown below:

As we know that

Amount financed = cash price - down payment

= $16,500 - $500

= $16,000

Hence, the amount financed is $16,000

If we deduct the down payment from the cash price so we can get the amount financed

Answer:

divide the figure into two parts.

area of triangle = 1/2×base×height

area of triangle = 1/2×3×3

area pf triangle = 4.5 units²

area of square = side²

area of square = 3²

area of square = 9unit²

Answer:

The figure is made up of a square and a triangle.

We will find both of their areas separately and then combining them will give us the required area.

Area of the triangle : ½ × base × height

= ½ × 3 × 3

= ½ × 9

= 4.5 units²

Area of the square : (side)²

= 3²

= 9 units²

Now, required area = (4.5 + 9) units²

= 13.5 units²
