Christine went shopping and bought each of her eight nephews a gift, either a video costing $14.95 or a CD costing $16.88. She spent $131.18 on the gifts. How many
videos and how many CDs did she buy?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Define number of videos purchased as "n" and number of CD's purchased as "c" then we can equation the total purchases and the costs by:

8 nephews:

n + c = 8

Spent $121.53

14.95*n + 16.88*c = 121.53

Substitute one variable as a function of the other. Preference the simpler equation (n + c = 8)

n = 8 - c

=>

14.95*(8-c) + 16.88c = 121.53

119.60 + 1.93c = 121.53

1.93c = 1.93

c = 1

=>

n = 7

*Check:

14.95*(7) + 16.88*(1) = 121.53

im so sorry if this is wrong :/

The Bionic Woman gives Batman a 12 second
start in a 2 kilometre race. If the Bionic Woman
runs at 5 km/min, and Batman runs at 3 km/
min, who will win the race and by how many
seconds?​

Answers

Answer:

          The Bionic Woman will win the race by 4 s

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]v=\dfrac st\quad\implies\quad t=\dfrac sv[/tex]

s = 2 km

t - time of run

v - speed of running

Batman:

v = 3km/min

[tex]t = \dfrac{2\,min}{3\,\frac{km}{min}}=2\,km\cdot\dfrac{min}{3\,km}=\dfrac23\,min = \dfrac23\cdot 60\,s=40\, s[/tex]

The Bionic Woman:

v = 5 km/min

[tex]t = \dfrac{2\,min}{5\,\frac{km}{min}}=2\,km\cdot\dfrac{min}{5\,km}=\dfrac25\,min = \dfrac25\cdot 60\,s=24\, s[/tex]

time from Batman's start: 24 s + 12 s = 36 s

Answer: Choice A

x < -3 or x > 1

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

Work Shown:

Solve the first inequality for x

3x+2 < -7

3x < -7-2 .... subtract 2 from both sides

3x < -9

x < -9/3 .... divide both sides by 3

x < -3

Do the same for the second inequality

-4x+5 < 1

-4x < 1-5

-4x < -4

x > -4/(-4) .... note the inequality sign flips

x > 1

So either x < -3 or x > 1. This points to choice A as the answer.

jimmy cn run 3.5 miles in 20 minutes. How far can he run in one hour and ten minutes?

Answers

Answer: 12.25miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a simple proportion.

                       20 miles   = 3.5miles

      ∴                1 mile     = 3.5/20

      ∴  1hour 10minutes  which is equivalent to 70minutes will be

                                        =  (3.5/20 x ⁷⁰/₁ ) miles

                                        = 12.25miles

Write an equation in slope intercept form for the graph (-3,3) (3,-1)

Answers

Answer:

y = (-3/2)x + 7/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the slope of this line first.

As you move from the first point to the second, x (the 'run') increases by 6 and y (the 'rise') decreases by 4 (from 3 to -1).  Thus the slope is

m = rise/run = -6/4 or -3/2.

Find b for this situation, using y = mx + b, m = -3/2, y = -1 and x = 3:

-1 = (-3/2)(3) + b.  Multiply all three terms by 2:

2(-1) = -9 + 2b, or 7 = 2b.  Then b = 7/2, and the desired equation is

y = (-3/2)x + 7/2

Find the product. 2√3•√15 A)5√5 B)√45 C)6√5 D)18√5

Answers

First multiply the numbers inside the radicals together.

So √3 · √15 is √45.

So we have 2√45.

Note that the 2 can't be multiplied by anything since

√15 has nothing outside of the radical.

So we have 2√45.

Now, break down your square root.

√45 breaks down as 9 · 5 and 9 breaks down as 3 · 3.

Since we have a pair of 3's, a 3 comes outside of the radical

multiplying by the 2 that was previously outside to get 6.

The 5 doesn't pair up so it stays inside.

So our final answer is 6√5.

Answer:

C) [tex]6\sqrt{5}[/tex]

Arithmetic without explanation:

[tex]2\sqrt{3}* \sqrt{15}\\ = 2\sqrt{3}* \sqrt{3*5} \\ = 2\sqrt{3^2} *\sqrt{5} \\ = 2 * 3\sqrt{5} \\= 6\sqrt{5}[/tex]

Example of radical multiplication:

Take [tex]y\sqrt{x} * a\sqrt{b}[/tex]  as an example:

1. Multiple the numbers inside the roots

      [tex]\sqrt{x} * \sqrt{b} = \sqrt{x*b} = \sqrt{xb}[/tex]  

2. Multiple the numbers outside the roots

       [tex]y*a = ya[/tex]

3. Combine them and simplify

      [tex]ya\sqrt{xb}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the expression [tex]2\sqrt{3}*\sqrt{15}[/tex]

 1. Identify the roots and multiply them

         The roots are [tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex]  and [tex]\sqrt{15}[/tex]

           [tex]\sqrt{3} *\sqrt{15} \\= \sqrt{45}[/tex]

  2. Multiply the numbers outside the root

         For [tex]2\sqrt{3}[/tex] it is [tex]2[/tex] and for [tex]\sqrt{15}[/tex] it is [tex]1[/tex]

          [tex]2*1 = 2[/tex]

  3. Combine and simplify

On a number​ line, suppose the coordinate of A is​ 0 and AR=21. What are the possible coordinates of the midpoint of AR?

Answers

Answer:

The possible coordinates of the midpoint are -10.5 and 10.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The coordinate of A = 0

The distance from A to R which is the same as AR = 21

Given that R is on the number line, we have;

When R is on the left side of A, which is = 0 - 21 = -21, we have;

The coordinates of the midpoint, M from -21 to 0 is given as follows;

M = (A + R)/2 = (0 - 21)/2 = -10.5

When R is on the right side of A, which is = 21 - 0 = 21, we have;

The coordinates of the midpoint, M from 21 to 0 is given as follows;

M = (A + R)/2 = (0 + 21)/2 = 10.5

Therefore, the possible coordinates of the midpoint are -10.5 and 10.5.

Write the equation of the line in slope intercept form that passes through (-2, -8) and (-9, 4)

Please provide steps to solve if possible

Answers

Answer:

[tex]y=-\frac{12}{7}x-\frac{80}{7}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the slope-intercept form of a line when given two points, we need to first put it into point-slope form. The point-slope form is given by the equation:

[tex]y-y_1=m(x-x_1)[/tex]

Where m is the slope and x₁ and y₁ is one of the two points.

Anyways, let's first find the slope. Let's designate (-2,-8) as x₁ and y₁ and (-9,4) as x₂ and y₂ (it doesn't really matter). The formula for slope is:

[tex]m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} =\frac{(4)-(-8)}{(-9)-(-2)}=12/-7=-12/7[/tex]

So, the slope is -12/7.

Now, pick a point for the point-slope form. To keep things consistent, I'm going to use the point (-2,-8) as x₁ and y₁. Plug in -12/7 for m. Therefore:

[tex]y-(-8)=-\frac{12}{7}(x-(-2))\\[/tex]

Now, simplify, distribute, and isolate the y:

[tex]y+8=-\frac{12}{7}(x+2)\\y+8=-\frac{12}{7}x-\frac{24}{7}\\y=-\frac{12}{7}x-\frac{24}{7}-8\\y=-\frac{12}{7}x-\frac{24}{7}-\frac{56}{7} \\y=-\frac{12}{7}x-\frac{80}{7}\\y=-\frac{12}{7}x-\frac{80}{7}[/tex]

and d

25 cm
40 cm
How many full gas cans will it take to fill the go cart's gas tank?

Answers

Answer: 8 liters  can.

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to find the volume of the cart tank . Since it is in the shape of a rectangular prism we have to multiply the length by the width by the height to find the volume.

V= 40 * 25 * 8  

V =  8000  

Which means that the volume is 8000 cubic centimeters.  

Now convert 8000 cubic centimeters to liter.

It gives us a hint that 1 liter is equal to 1000 cm^3

So to convert 8000 cubic centimeters to liters we will have to divide it by 1000.

8000/1000 = 8 liters.

The function h(x)=12x^8+49 is an even function. Which transformation of h(x) would result in a function that is neither even nor odd?

A) reflection over the x-axis
B) vertical stretch by a factor of 7
C) translation 8 units to the right
D) horizontal compression

Explanation of the correct answer would be nice so that I understand it better.

Answers

Answer:

The correct option is;

C) Translation 8 units to the right

Step-by-step explanation:

The function h(x) = 12·x⁸ + 49 is an even function

However a translation 8 units to the right would yield the following function;

h(x) = 12 × (x+ 8)⁸ + 49 = 12x⁸ + 768x⁷ + 21504x⁶ + 344064x⁵ + 3440640x⁴ + 22020096x³ + 88080384x² + 201326592x + 201326641

For h(1) = 516560701

Also h(-x) = 12 × (-x+ 8)⁸ + 49 = 12x⁸ - 768x⁷ + 21504x⁶ - 344064x⁵ + 3440640x⁴ - 22020096x³ + 88080384x² - 201326592x + 201326641

For h(-1) = 69177661

Therefore h(x) ≠ h(-x) after the translation 8 units to the right and the function is neither even nor odd.

Answer:

−1=t

Step-by-step explanation:

−4=2t−2

Simplify

First, add the same terms to both of the sides of this equation.

−4=2t−2

−4 + 2 =2t - 2 + 2

Secondly, simplify.

add the numbers

−4 + 2 =2t - 2 + 2

-2 = 2t - 2 + 2

Then,

-2 = 2t - 2+2

-2 = 2t

v

It's simplified to -2 = 2t

Thirdly, Divide both sides of the equation by the same term.

−2=2t

2  over −2

​ =  

2  over 2t

Simplify

(divide the numbers)

2  over −2

​ =

−1 =   2  over 2t

-1 = t

Therefore, the solution is −1=t

Please Help, I Really Need The Answer To This Question

Answers

Answer: y < (-1/4)*x + 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing you need to notice is that the line is not solid and that the shaded part is under the line, so our inequality will be strictly smaller than a linear equation.

y < a*x + b.

Now let's find the equation of the line.

A linear relationship can be written as:

y = a*x + b

where a is the slope and b is the y-axis intercept.

For a line that passes through the points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2), the slope can be written as:

a = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1).

In the graph, we can see that the line passes through the points: (0,1) and (4. 0)

Then the slope is:

a = (0 - 1)/(4 -0) = -1/4.

Now we know that the line is:

y = (-1/4)*x + b

To find the value of b, just replace the value of one of the points in the equation.

We know that (0,1) is a solution of the equation (x= 0, y = 1)

1 = (-1/4)*0 + b = b

1 = b

Then our inequality is:

y < (-1/4)*x + 1.
