A taxi driver had 27 fares to and from the airport last Monday. The price for a ride to the airport is $14, and the price for a ride from the airport is $7. The driver collected a total of $294 for the day. Let x represent the number of trips to the airport and y represent the number of trips from the airport. Write the ordered pair (x,y) that represents the solution in this situation.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

(15, 12)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's generate two systems of equations that fit this scenario.

Number of trips to the airport = x

Number of trips from the airport = y

Total number of trips to and from the airport = 27

Thus:

[tex] x + y = 27 [/tex] => equation 1.

Total price for trips to the Airport = 14*x = 14x

Total price of trips from the airport = 7*y = 7y

Total collected for the day = $294

Thus:

[tex] 14x + 7y = 294 [/tex] => equation 2.

Multiply equation 1 by 7, and multiply equation 2 by 1 to make both equations equivalent.

7 × [tex] x + y = 27 [/tex]

1 × [tex] 14x + 7y = 294 [/tex]

Thus:

[tex] 7x + 7y = 189 [/tex] => equation 3

[tex] 14x + 7y = 294 [/tex] => equation 4

Subtract equation 4 from equation 3

-7x = -105

Divide both sides by -7

x = 15

Substitute x = 15 in equation 1

[tex] x + y = 27 [/tex]

[tex] 15 + y = 27 [/tex]

Subtract both sides by 15

[tex] y = 27 - 15 [/tex]

[tex] y = 12 [/tex]

The ordered pair would be (15, 12)

how to solve 9x-2 × 27x=3
[tex] { {9}^{} }^{ x - 2 } .27 {}^{x} = 3[/tex]


Answers

Answer:

x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the rules of exponents

[tex](a^m)^{n}[/tex] = [tex]a^{mn}[/tex]

[tex]a^{m}[/tex] × [tex]a^{n}[/tex] ⇔ [tex]a^{(m+n)}[/tex]

Note that 9 = 3² and 27 = 3³ , thus

[tex]9^{x-2}[/tex] × [tex]27^{x}[/tex]

= [tex](3^2)^{x-2}[/tex] × [tex](3^3)^{x}[/tex]

= [tex]3^{2x-4}[/tex] × [tex]3^{3x}[/tex]

= [tex]3^{(2x-4+3x)}[/tex]

= [tex]3^{5x-4}[/tex] , then

[tex]3^{5x-4}[/tex] = [tex]3^{1}[/tex]

Since the bases on both sides are equal, equate the exponents

5x - 4 = 1 ( add 4 to both sides )

5x = 5 ( divide both sides by 5 )

x = 1

At a grocery store, the price of 3 cans of soup is $6.90. at this rate, how much would 10 cans of soup cost

Answers

Answer:

$23

Step-by-step explanation:

At a grocery store 3 cans of soup cost $6.90

3 cans = 6.90

1 can= 6.90/3

1 can = $2.3

Therefore the cost of 10 cans can be calculated as follows

1 can= $2.3

10 cans= 10×2.3

= $23

Hence 10 cans will cost $23

Which of the following equations represents the graph shown?

A.)f( x) = - x - 2
B.)f( x) = x + 2
C.)f( x) = - x + 2

Answers

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Looking at the graph, we can see that the graph crosses the y-axis at y=2.

Hence, our y-intercept should be 2.

Therefore, we can eliminate A.

We also notice that the graph is downwards sloping.

Therefore, our slope is negative.

So, we can eliminate B.

Therefore, our answer must be C.

Answers

Answer:

The value of x = 4 if g(x) = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function

[tex]g(x) = 3(x - 2)[/tex]

as

[tex]g(x) = 6[/tex]

so putting the value of [tex]g(x) = 6[/tex] in the function

[tex]g(x) = 3(x - 2)[/tex]

[tex]6 = 3(x-2)[/tex]

Switch sides and divide both sides by 3

[tex]\frac{3\left(x-2\right)}{3}=\frac{6}{3}[/tex]

[tex]x-2=2[/tex]

[tex]x=4[/tex]

Therefore, the value of x = 4 if g(x) = 6

|2x-8| + 3 = 5 two solutions

Answers

Answer:

The two solutions are 5 and 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the absolute has two solutions because IxI = a means x = a and x = -a

Let us solve the question using this fact

I2x - 8I + 3 = 5

→ Subtract 3 from both sides

∴ I2x - 8I + 3 - 5 = 5 - 3

∴ I2x - 8I = 2

By using the fact above

1st solution

2x - 8 = 2

→ Add 8 to both sides

∴ 2x - 8 + 8 = 2 + 8

∴ 2x = 10

→ Divide both sides by 2 to find x

x = 5

2nd solution

2x - 8 = -2

→ Add 8 to both sides

∴ 2x - 8 + 8 = -2 + 8

∴ 2x = 6

→ Divide both sides by 2 to find x

x = 3

The two solutions are 5 and 3

How many of each type of snack did Helen buy?

Answers

Answer:

pretzels = 8

chips = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

{ c + p = 23

{ 1/4c + 1/2p = 7.75

Both sides * 4

 c + 2p = 31

- c + p = 23

p = 31 - 23 = 8

pretzels = 8

A nursery owner buys 8 panes of glass to fix some damage to his greenhouse. The 8 panes cost ​$18.80. ​Unfortunately, breaks 3 more panes while repairing the damage. What is the cost of another 3 panes of​ glass?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost of another 3 panes of glass would be

Solution:

Given, Number of panes of glass bought = 8

Cost of 8 panes of glass =

Number of broken panes of glass = 3

We have to find the cost of 3 panes of glass

By unitary method, If 8 panes of glass costs , then the cost of one pane of glass will be as follows,

Therefore, for 3 panes of glass it would be

Unitary method:

The unitary method is a technique for solving a problem by first finding the value of a single unit, and then finding the necessary value by multiplying the single unit value. In essence, this method is used to find the value of a unit from the value of a multiple, and hence the value of a multiple.

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Total no. of questions = 20

Marks given for a correct answer = 4

Marks deducted for a wrong answer = 1

No. of questions attended by the candidate = a

No. of questions the candidate gets correct = c

No. of questions the candidate gets wrong = a - c

Marks obtained for correct answers = 4c

Marks deducted for wrong answers = 1 (a - c)

Total marks scored by the candidate =

Marks obtained for correct answers - Marks deducted for wrong answers

Total marks scored by the candidate = 4c - 1 (a - c)

= 4c - a + c
