Betty and Billy are selling cookies at the school bake sale. Billy sold twice as many cookies as Betty. Together, they sold 15 cookies at the bake sale. Could Betty have sold 3 cookies

Answers

Answer 1

No Betty would have sold at least 5 cookies.

We know that 2/3 of 15 is 10 and that 5 also happens to be half of this number.

It adds up to 15 all while the number of cookies sold by Billy is still twice a much as the cookies sold by Betty. Therefore Betty would have had to sell at least 5 cookies.

Translate to the correct equation: The sum of 24 and three times a number is 57 *
Translate into an inequality: Six less than double a number is less than 18.

Answers

Answer:

EQUATION:  24 + 3X = 27. INEQUALITY: 2X - 6 < 18.

Step-by-step explanation:

For the equation:

"A number" means that we do not know what the number is yet. So it is a variable. I chose the variable, "X."

"The SUM of 24 AND" means we are adding 24 to something. So what we have so far is "24 + ..."

"3 times a number" means we are multiplying 3 by the unknown variable X. So 3X. What we have so far is "24 + 3X..."

"is 57" means that everything we've just stated equals 57.

Our entire equation is: 24 + 3x = 27.

For the inequality:

Inequalities mean that two expressions are NOT equal to each other.

"6 less than" means that we subtract 6. So we have,"6 - ..." so far.

"Double a number" means 2 times a number, which we are saying is X. So "2X."

" is less than 18" means that everything we just said is less than the value of 18.

So the whole inequality is: 2X - 6 < 18.

rewrite the following linear equation in general form​

Answers

Given:

The linear equation is:

[tex]y+6=-\dfrac{5}{2}(x+4)[/tex]

To find:

The general form of the given linear equation.

Solution:

The general form of a line is equation is:

[tex]Ax+By=C[/tex]

We have,

[tex]y+6=-\dfrac{5}{2}(x+4)[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 2.

[tex]2(y+6)=-5(x+4)[/tex]

[tex]2(y)+2(6)=-5(x)-5(4)[/tex]

[tex]2y+12=-5x-20[/tex]

Isolating variable terms, we get

Find the total travel time: Depart 2:30 pm PST Arrive 7:20 pm CST.
A. 3 hr 40 min
B. 3 hr 50 min
C. 1 hr 50 min
D. 2 hr 50 min

Answers

Given:

Depart 2:30 pm PST

Arrive 7:20 pm CST

To find:

The total travel time

Solution:

We know that time in CST is 2 hours more than the time in PST

Depart time = 2:30 pm PST

Convert this time in CST.

Depart time = (2:30+2:00) pm CST

                    = 4:30 pm CST

We have,

Arrive time = 7:20 pm CST

The total travel time is the difference between 7:20 pm CST and 4:30 pm CST.

7:20 pm - 4:30 pm = 2 hr 50 min

The total travel time is 2 hr 50 min.

Therefore, the correct option is D.

Equality Properties

Multiplication Property of Equality Division Property of Equality Addition Property of Equality Subtraction Property of Equality

Algebra I

Coordinates (x, y)Terms/CoefficientsSolving systems of equations using substitution/elimination

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define Systems

y = 4x - 18

y = -5x + 9

Step 2: Solve for x

Substitution

Substitute in y [2nd Equation]:                                                                           4x - 18 = -5x + 9[Addition Property of Equality] Add 5x on both sides:                                   9x - 18 = 9[Addition Property of Equality] Add 18 on both sides:                                   9x = 27[Division Property of Equality] Divide 9 on both sides:                                  x = 3

Step 3: Solve for y

Substitute in x [1st Equation]:                                                                           y = 4(3) - 18Multiply:                                                                                                             y = 12 - 18Subtract:                                                                                                            y = -6

Answer:

x=3

y = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 4x – 18

y = -5x +9

Set the two equations equal

4x – 18 = -5x +9

Add 5x to each side

4x – 18 +5x= -5x+5x +9

9x -18 = 9

Add 18 to each side

9x -18 +18 = 9+18

9x =27

Divide by 8

9x/9 = 27/9

x = 3

Now find y

y = 4x-18

y = 4*3 -18

y =12-18

y = -6

Find the equation for the line that passes through the point (−3,−3), and that is perpendicular to the line with the equation x=4.

Answers

Answer:

y = - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

x = 4 is a vertical line parallel to the y- axis

A line perpendicular to it will be a horizontal line parallel to the x- axis with equation

y = c

where c is the value of the y- coordinates of the points the line passes through.

The line passes through (- 3, - 3) with y- coordinate - 3 , then

y = - 3 ← equation of perpendicular line

Find two numbers if their Least Common Multiple, LCM is 100 and their Highest Common Factor, HCF is 5. Give two possible pairs of answers. ​

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Let H = HCF(A,B) and L = LCM(A,B)

Then A*B = L*H

Here L*H = 100*5 = 500

Also H <= A ,B <= L

So we need to find all A*B = 500, satisfying the above condition. This can be done using prime factorisation of 500.

Here 500 = 2^2 * 5^3

so possible values of A and B are

1 , 500

2, 250

4, 125

5,100

10,50

20,25

(assuming order doesn’t matter.)

so pairs satisfying given condition are → (20,25) and (100,5)

[tex]\tan 2\alpha = \frac{2\cdot \tan \alpha}{1-\tan^{2}\alpha}[/tex] (2)

[tex](\cos^{2}\alpha - \sin^{2}\alpha)\cdot \left(\frac{2\cdot \tan \alpha}{1-\tan^{2}\alpha} - \tan \alpha \right) = \tan \alpha[/tex]

[tex](\cos^{2}\alpha -\sin^{2}\alpha) \cdot \left[\frac{2- (1-\tan^{2}\alpha)}{1-\tan^{2}\alpha} \right]\cdot \tan\alpha = \tan \alpha[/tex]

[tex](\cos^{2}\alpha - \sin^{2}\alpha) \cdot \left[\frac{1+\tan^{2}\alpha}{1-\tan^{2}\alpha} \right] = 1[/tex]

[tex](\cos^{2}\alpha -\sin^{2}\alpha)\cdot (1 + \tan^{2}\alpha) = 1 - \tan^{2}\alpha[/tex]

[tex]\cos^{2}\alpha \cdot (1-\tan^{2}\alpha)\cdot (1 + \tan^{2}\alpha) = (1-\tan^{2}\alpha)[/tex]

[tex]\cos^{2}\alpha \cdot (1+\tan^{2}\alpha) = 1[/tex]

[tex]\cos^{2}\alpha\cdot \sec^{2}\alpha = 1[/tex]
