Tyler bought 3 calculators and 7 pens for $67.80. Barbra bought 6 calculators and 2 pens for $92.40. How much does each pen cost?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Each pen costs $3.60 (Each calculator costs $14.20).

Step-by-step explanation:

Let c represent calculator

Let p represent pen

3c + 7p = 67.8

6c + 2p = 92.4

Step 1: Solve 3c + 7p = 67.8 for c:

3c + 7p = 67.8

3c + 7p + −7p = 67.8 + −7p (Add -7p to both sides)

3c = −7p + 67.8

3c/3 = −7p + 67.8/3 (Divide both sides by 3)

c = −7/3p + 22.6

Step 2: Substitute −7/3p + 22.6 for c in 6c + 2p = 92.4:

6c+2p=92.4

6(−7/3p + 22.6) + 2p = 92.4

−12p + 135.6 = 92.4 (Simplify both sides of the equation)

−12p + 135.6 + −135.6 = 92.4 + −135.6 (Add -135.6 to both sides)

−12p = −43.2

−12p/−12 = −43.2/−12 (Divide both sides by -12)

p = 3.6

Step 3: Substitute 3.6 for p in c = −7/3p + 22.6:

c = −7/3p + 22.6

c= −7/3(3.6) + 22.6

c = 14.2 (Simplify both sides of the equation)

Answer:

c = 14.2 and p = 3.6

Hope this helps and have a great day :)

FIND THE QUADRATIC FUNCTION DETERMINED BY EACH TABLE
X -2 -1 0 1 2 3
Y 4 0 -2 -2 0 4

Answers

Answer:

x² - x - 2 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

plotting the graph of x and y,we have that the root of the equation is -1 or 2

x = -1 or 2

the eqn therefore is;

x² - (sum of the root)x + (product of the root) =. 0

x² - (-1+2)x + (-1*2) = 0

x² - x - 2 = 0

Applying the Factor Theorem, it is found that the quadratic function is:

[tex]p(x) = x^2 - x - 2[/tex]

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

The Factor Theorem states that if a polynomial [tex]p(x)[/tex] has roots [tex]x_1, x_2, ..., x_n[/tex], it is described by the following equation:

[tex]p(x) = a(x - x_1)(x - x_2)...(x - x_n)[/tex]

In which a is the leading coefficient.

For this quadratic function, the roots are [tex]x_1 = -1, x_2 = 2[/tex], as [tex]y(-1) = y(2) = 0[/tex], thus:

[tex]p(x) = a(x - (-1))(x - 2)[/tex]

[tex]p(x) = a(x + 1)(x - 2)[/tex]

[tex]p(x) = a(x^2 - x - 2)[/tex]

When x = 0, p(x) = -2, and we use this to find a.

[tex]p(x) = a(x^2 - x - 2)[/tex]

[tex]-2 = a(0^2 - 0 - 2)[/tex]

[tex]2a = 2[/tex]

[tex]a = \frac{2}{2}[/tex]

[tex]a = 1[/tex]

Thus, the quadratic function is:

[tex]p(x) = x^2 - x - 2[/tex]

Taxi charges =$2

Additional charges =$1.50 per mile driven

Step two:

Required

The cost of the ride for a 6miles long drive

let the number of miles be x

and the total charges be y

The cost function is expressed as

[tex]y=1.5x+2[/tex]------------1

hence for x=6

y=1.5(6)+2

y=9+2

y=11

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You would use -6 and 7 to start your line. With the equation “y=5/6x+7", you would put a dot on 7. Then you would use the 5/6 to start making your line. With fractions, it's always rise/run. Starting from 7, you go up 5 then over(right) 6 until you run out of room on the graph. Then you do the opposite, down 5 then back(left) 6. Then you should have your first line. Then repeat that for the next equation. Start at -6, go down 4 and back three until you run out of room on the graph, then do the opposite. Go up 4 and over 3.
