A store Is having sale on jelly beans and almonds. For 2 pounds of jelly beans and 12 pounds of almonds, the total cost Is $23. For 5 pounds of jelly beans and
3 pounds of almonds, the total cost Is $17. Find the cost for each pound of jelly beans and each pound of almonds.
Cost
for each pound of Jelly beans: $[]
x 5

Answers

Answer 1

Ratio: 2/23 : 1/x

x is $11.5

So 1 pound of jelly beans cost $11.5

3/17 : 1/x

x is 5.67

So 1 pound of almonds cost $5.67

Answer 2

Answer:

Jellybeans are $2.25 per pound

Almonds are $1.25 per pound

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = jelly beans Let y = almonds

Equation 1

5x + 3y = 15

Equation 2

2x + 6y = 12

Multiply Equation 1 by negative 2 to give

-10x - 6y = -30

Add this to Equation 2 to eliminate y

-10x  - 6y = -30       2x + 6y = 12

The y is eliminated leaving

-8x = -18

Divide both sides by negative 8 to give

x = 2.25

Substitute this value back into Equation 2 to solve for y

2x + 6y = 12    2(2.25) + 6y =12 .   4.50 + 6y = 12

Subtract 4.50 from both sides of the equation to give

6y = 7.50

Divide both sides by 6 to solve for y

y = 7.50/6

y= 1.25

A set of 3 consecutive integers has a sum of 15. Which integers are they?

Answers

The answer is 4+5+6=15.Hope that helps. :)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the first number be x,

The second number (since it is consecutive) will be = x + 1

The third number (since it is right after the second) = (x+1) + 1 = x + 2

x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 15

3x + 3 = 15

3x = 15 - 3

3x = 12

x = 12/3 = 4

If the first number = 4,

Second number will be = 5 [(x+1) = 4+1]

Third number will be = 6 [(x+2) = 4 + 2]

The base of a triangular field is three times its height. If the cost of cultivating the feild at $36 per hectare is $486, find its base and height.

Please explain also​

Answers

Answer:

Formula of the area of triangle = 1/2 × b × h (where 'b' is the base and 'h' is the height)

1 hectare = $36

$486 = 13.5 hectares

13.5 hectares = 1/2 × b × h

To get b × h, you use the reverse of the formula. Hence:

13.5 = 1/2 × b × h

13.5 ÷ 1/2 = b × h

               = 27

27 is b × h.

The question states that the base is three times the height. Hence:

b = 3u

h = 1u

b × h = 27

        = 3u × 1u

Thus, we need to find one value which is three times the other, in order to get a product of 27.

Factors of 27:

1 × 27

3 × 9

9 is three times of 3. Thus, the base is 9, while the height is 3.

Answers

Answer:

h⁰ = 84⁰

f⁰ = 132⁰

g⁰ = 28⁰

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know that sum of all the angles in a triangle is 180⁰, so,

h⁰ + 48⁰ + 48⁰ = 180⁰

h⁰ = 84⁰

Now, we can find f⁰ by Linear Pair theorem, which states that the angles sum will equal to 180⁰.

48⁰ + f⁰ = 180⁰

f⁰ = 132⁰

Again, g⁰ can be founded the same way as h⁰.

20⁰ + 132⁰ + g⁰ = 180⁰

g⁰ = 28⁰

In two or more complete sentences, explain how to use ordered pairs of points in f(x) = 2x + 5 and g (x) = x-5/2 to determine if f(x) and g(x) are inverse of each other.

Answers

Answer:

In two or more complete sentences, explain how to use ordered pairs of points in f(x) = 2x + 5 and to determine if f(x) and g(x) are inverses of each other?

It is very difficult to know because you did not include the function g(x), you only gave us f(x).

Given two lists of ordered pairs [x,f(x)] and [x,g(x)]. If for every ordered pair on the f(x) list the reverse is on the g(x) list the functions are inverses.

f(0) = 5 so for (0,5) on the f(x) list then (5,0) must be on the g(x) list

f(1) = 7 so for (1,7) on the f(x) list then (7,1) must be on the g(x) list

f(2) = 9 so for (2,9) on the f(x) list then (9,2) must be on the g(x) list

So even though you didn’t list g(x), g(x) = (x/2) - 5/2

Find the total amount in 3 years:

[tex]A = P(1+r/n)^{nt}[/tex][tex]A = 5483*(1+0.05/1)^{1*3}=5483*(1.05)^3 = 6347.26[/tex]

So it becomes:

50x > 1550

(One graph for the 800 kg roller coaster cartand one graph for the 300 kg roller coaster cart.) You need to graph thegravitational potential energy with respect to height, the mechanical kineticenergy vs height, and the velocity vs height.Lets look at the energy graphs first. In this case both kinetic energy andmechanical energy cover the same range of values. This means they can use thesame scale on the y-axis. So, you will use the left y-axis and the x-axis to graphthe kinetic energy vs height and the potential energy vs height. You will need alegend to explain which line is which. Colour coding is a nice way to highlight this.The velocity values are much different than the energy values. This means youneed a totally different scale. So, your left y-axis wont work. You need to make asecond scale on the right y-axis for your velocity values. You will plot the pointsthe same way as normal, but you will use the numbers on the right-hand scaleinstead.
