Answer 2

The cost of each 1 pound candy is $30, 1 box of cookies is $5 and 1 can of popcorn is $10.

We have the church youth group is selling snacks to raise money to attend their convention.

We have to determine the cost of each item they sold.

Write the following statement in the form of a mathematical equation - Steve bought 2 toffees each of $x and 5 chocolates each of $y. The total cost is $50.

The mathematical equation representing the above statement is -

2x + 5y = 50

According to question -

Assume that the cost of :

1 pound candy = $x

1 box of cookies = $y

1 can of popcorn = $z

Now, write down the mathematical equation representing their total sales -

Amy -      2x + 3y + z = 85

Brian -     4x + 4y + 3z = 170

Paulina -     8x + 8y + 5z = 330

We will use the Cramer's rule to solve these equations -

The 3 x 3 coefficient matrix is -

[tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}2&3&1\\4&4&3\\8&8&5\end{array}\right][/tex]

Find its determinant -

D = 2(4 x 5 - 3 x 8) - 3(4 x 5 - 8 x 3) + 1(4 x 8 - 4 x 8) = 4

Create the X- matrix (X - matrix is formed by replacing the x-column values with the answer-column values) as follows -

[tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}85&3&1\\170&4&3\\330&8&5\end{array}\right][/tex]

Find th determinant of this X - matrix same as done above -

D(X) = 120

Similarly create a Y - matrix and Z - matrix and find their respective determinants. On solving you will get -

D(Y) = 20

D(Z) = 40

According to the Cramer's rule -

[tex]$x = \frac{D_{x} }{D}[/tex]

[tex]$y = \frac{D_{y} }{D}[/tex]

[tex]$z = \frac{D_{z} }{D}[/tex]

Therefore -

x = 120/4 = 30

y = 20/4 = 5

z = 40/4 = 10

Hence, the cost of each 1 pound candy is $30, 1 box of cookies is $5 and 1 can of popcorn is $10.

Part 1: Graph a function when give the following Domain and Range:​

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is basically the same thing as the last question.

The domain goes from - 8 to 5. The 5 has an open circle for it's endpoint < does not include the end point

the range is a little tricky. It goes from - 6  to 9. The -6 is has a circle (because it is not included in the answer). I'm not sure how you show that on a graph.

I think the best answer is this: if either the domain or range is separated by < then you must change the one that uses ≤ into < so the endpoints of the domain are in agreement. You cannot have the domain using < when the range uses ≤. They both must be the same. I think the best choice is<

A washer and a dryer cost $959 combined. The washer costs $59 more than the dryer. What is the cost of the dryer?

Answers

Answer:

A dryer costs $450.

A washer costs $509.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let:

"washer" = x

"dryer" = y

Set the equations:

x + y = 959

x = y + 59

First, plug in y + 59 for x in the first equation for x:

x + y = 959

(y + 59) + y = 959

Simplify, combine like terms:

y + y + 59 = 959

2y + 59 = 959

Next, isolate the variable, y. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS. PEMDAS is the order of operations, and stands for:

Parenthesis, Exponents (& Roots), Multiplications, Divisions, Additions, Subtractions.

First, subtract 59 from both sides of the equation:

2y + 59 (-59) = 959 (-59)

2y = 959 - 59

2y = 900

Next, divide 2 from both sides of the equation:

(2y)/2 = (900)/2

y = 900/2

y = 450

Next, plug in 450 for y in one of the equations:

x = y + 59

x = (450) + 59

x = 509

Check:

x + y = 959

450 + 509 = 959

959 = 959 (True).

~

Answer:

$450

Step-by-step explanation:

1. First, let's make a system of equations:

[tex]y+59=x,x+y=959[/tex] (y = dryer, x = washer)

2. (Solving)

Solve y + 59 = x for y:

[tex]y + 59 = x[/tex] [tex]y + 59-59=x-59[/tex] (Subtract 59 from both sides)[tex]y = x-59[/tex]

Substitute x - 59 for y in x + y = 959

[tex]x + y = 959[/tex] [tex]x+x-59=959[/tex] [tex]2x - 59 = 959[/tex] [tex]2x - 59 + 59 = 959 + 59[/tex] (Add 59 to both sides)[tex]2x = 1018[/tex] [tex]\frac{2x}{2} = \frac{1018}{2}[/tex] (divide both sides by 2)[tex]x = 509[/tex]

Substitute 509 for x in y = x - 59

[tex]y = x - 59[/tex] [tex]y = 509-59[/tex] [tex]y = 450[/tex]

Therefore, the dryer costs $450. (The washer costs $509).

Jasmine is a receptionist at a doctors office. She books 36 appointments each day . Four out of every 24 appointments are cancelled. How many appointments are cancelled each day?

Answers

If Jasmine books 36 appointments each day, 6 appointments will be canceled.

Number of appointments booked each day = 36 appointments

Since four out of every 24 appointments are canceled. This means the fraction of appointments that are canceled will be:

= 4/24 = 1/6

Now, since three are 36 appointments each day, the number of appointments that are canceled will be:

= 1/6 × 36

= 6 appointments

In conclusion, 6 appointments will be canceled each day.

In a lottery game, a player picks 9 numbers from 1 to 46. If 8 of the 9 numbers match those drawn, the player wins second prize. What is the probability of winning this prize? Be sure to leave your answer as a reduced fraction in order to earn credit.

There is a _____
probability of winning second prize.

Answers

Answer:  [tex]\frac{37}{1,101,716,330}\\\\[/tex]

This is the same as writing 37/1101716330

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

Explanation:

Let's say the nine winning numbers are: 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9

Let's further say that if we matched everything from 1 to 8, then we'll win second prize. That ninth value can be anything but 9. So we could have something like one of these examples

1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,101,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,111,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,12

As you can see, there are 46-9 = 37 different choices we can have for that last slot. In other words, there are 37 items in the set {10,11,12,...,45,46} we can pick for that last ninth slot. Note that 46-10+1 = 37. This value will form the numerator of the answer.

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

Now to calculate how many ways there are to select the nine values regardless if we win or lose.

Since order doesn't matter, we use the nCr combination formula.

[tex]_{n} C _{r} = \frac{n!}{r!*(n-r)!}\\\\_{46} C _{9} = \frac{46!}{9!*(46-9)!}\\\\_{46} C _{9} = \frac{46!}{9!*37!}\\\\_{46} C _{9} = \frac{46*45*44*43*42*41*40*39*38*37!}{9!*37!}\\\\[/tex]

[tex]_{46} C _{9} = \frac{46*45*44*43*42*41*40*39*38}{9!} \ \text{ ... the ``37!'' terms cancel}\\\\_{46} C _{9} = \frac{46*45*44*43*42*41*40*39*38}{9*8*7*6*5*4*3*2*1}\\\\_{46} C _{9} = \frac{399,790,821,830,400}{362,880}\\\\_{46} C _{9} = 1,101,716,330\\\\[/tex]

There are slightly over 1 billion ways to select the nine values.

This large value is the denominator of our answer which is [tex]\frac{37}{1,101,716,330}\\\\[/tex]

The 37 up top represents the number of ways to win the second prize we're after, while the massive number in the denominator represents how many ways there are to play the game.

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

Notice that in the jump from step 4 to step 5, shown in the section above, we had the "37!" terms cancel out. What this means is that the prime number 37 is nowhere to be found anywhere in the factorization of 1,101,716,330

Why is this important? Because it tells us that the fraction [tex]\frac{37}{1,101,716,330}\\\\[/tex] cannot be reduced.

Side note: That fraction converts to the decimal form 0.00000003358397 approximately and that converts to the percentage form 0.000003358397%; both of which are very very small numbers. We can see that the odds are definitely stacked against the player.

Distance

4.5 + 2/3 + 9 = 45/10 + 2/3 + 9 = 9/2 + 2/3 + 9 = (27 +  4 + 54)/6 = 85/6

Time

30 min + 20 min + 45 min = 95 min

------

Let t equal the time that passed right after 10 PM.

42t = 36 (t + 1)  

42t = 36t +36  

6t = 36  

t = 6 hours

Answer: 4 AM ✅

Step-by-step explanation:

The car traveled 200 m distance with a speed of 50 m / hr in 4 hr.



Given that,
To determine the total distance in meters of a car that travels due west at 50 m/hr west between 12:00 and 4:00 pm.

What is speed?

Speed is defined as when an object is in motion, the distance covered by that object per unit of time is called speed.

What is Distance?

Distance is defined as the object traveling at a particular speed in time from one point to another.

Here, the car travels due west at 50 m/hr west between 12:00 and 4:00 pm
Time = 12:00 - 4:00 = 4 hours
Speed = 50 m / hr
Distance = 50 * 4
             = 200 m

Thus, the car traveled 200 m distance with a speed of 50 m / hr in 4 hr.

The perimeter of a rectangle is 280 meters. The width is 26 meters less than the length. Find the length and width.

Answers

Answer:

The length is 83 and the width is 57

Step-by-step explanation:

The width is 26 meters less than the length, so we'll represent the width with: L-26. Since there are 2 widths to account for, we'll multiply this by 2.

Equation looks like this so far: 2(L-26)

Then, add the 2 lengths and set the expression equal to 280.

Equation: 2(L-26)+2L=280

Distribute the 2 in the first term, making the equation look like:

2L-52+2L=280

Add the 52 to both sides of the equation

4L=332

Divide by 4 on both sides

L=332/4=83

L=83

Width is 26 meters less, so 83-26=57
