Jason spent a total of $131 on shirts. Dress shirts cost $28 dollars and T-shirts cost $15 dollars. If he brought 7 shirts how many of each kind did he buy?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:  28x  + 15y = 131   and x + y =  7   where x is the number of Dress shirt and y is the number of T-shirt.

Step-by-step explanation:

We will represent the number of Dress shirt he bought by x and we will represent the number of T-shirt he bought by y.

We know that he spent 131 so the cost of each dress shirt plus the cost of each T-shirt has to equal  131.  Also, he bought 7 total shirts so x plus y has to equal 7.

28x  + 15y = 131  

x + y =  7

Note: it says don't solve so I didn't solve but if you want to solve use these equations.

A restaurant owner was experimenting with the taste of her homestyle lemon
drink. She started with 60 litres of water. She removed 15 litres of the water and
replaced it with 15 litres of pure lemon juice.
After thoroughly stirring the new mixture, she discovered that it was too
“lemony”. So she removed 10 litres of the new mixture and replaced it with 10
litres of water. She thoroughly stirred the mixture and concluded that the new
mixture was just right.
Determine the ratio of pure lemon juice to water in the final 60 litre mixture.

Answers

Answer:

Lemon juice / water  =  12,5 / 47,5  or 26,31 %

Step-by-step explanation:

First step:

We got  60 liters. of water and we replace 15 liters. of water and add 15 liters of lemon juice, then our mixture is:

60 lts. of mixture       ⇒ with      45 lts. is water   and 15 lts. is lemon juice

The proportion of the mixture  

each liter of the mixture is   0,75 lts. of water and 0,25 of lemon juice

2 step

Removing 10 lts. of mixture implies

10 lts of mixture    means    7,5 lts. of water and 2,5 lts. of lemon juice

then we have

50 lts. of mixture     with   (45 - 7,5 = 37,5 lts.) of water and (15 - 2,5 = 12,5 ) lts. of lemon juice

third step

Addind 10 lts. of water:

60 lts. of mixture  with  ( 37,5 + 10 = 47,5) lts. of water and 12,5 lts. of lemon juice

Final mixture is

60 lts. of mixture with   47,5 lts. of water  and 12,5 lts. of lemon juice

Proportion

Lemon juice / water  =  12,5 / 47,5    or  26,32 %

Working together takes two different size hose 30 minutes to fill a small swimming pool if it takes 40 minutes for the larger hose to fill the swimming pool by itself how long will it take the smaller hose to fill the pool on its own?

Answers

So when the pool is filled by the two hoses together in 30 minutes, the larger hose itself fills 30/40 = 3/4 of the pool. That means in those 30 minutes the smaller hose fills 1/4 of the pool; and that means it would take the smaller hose 30*4 = 120 minutes to fill the pool alone.

Answers

Answer:

a is 64 b 125 c 36

Step-by-step

so you do 2 times 2 times 2 = 8 because there is a 3 so you multiply it by it self how ever many times the number above it says so after you do that its the same for the other number so they are both 8 so 8 times 8 is 64

a is 64

when simplifying expressions and they are the same base is you
1. multiple - add the exponents keep the base

2. divide - subtract the exponents keep the base

so when you have 2^3• 2^3 you will add the exponents which gives you 2^6 and then you simplify that down to your single integer

b is 36

6^7/6^5 = 6^2 which simplifies down to 36

The triangles are similar. Find the missing length x.

Answers

Answer:

36

Step-by-step explanation:

If the triangles have similar sides, any increase or decrease in side length is in equal number. This means equal ratio. How?

Let the common factor of decrease in side OD to AP be, z

[tex]\frac{30}{20} = z[/tex]

And, the common factor of decrease in side DT to PN be, z

[tex]\frac{x}{24} = z[/tex]

So, [tex]z = z[/tex]

[tex]\frac{30}{20} = \frac{x}{24}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{30}{20}[/tex] × [tex]24[/tex] = [tex]{x}[/tex]

Therefore,

[tex]{x}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex] × [tex]24[/tex]

  = [tex]3[/tex] × [tex]12[/tex]

  = [tex]36[/tex]

Here, we are interested in giving the expression that Kalinda can use to know the difference in height between her and Terrence

From the question, Kalinda is 68.7 inches tall while Terrence is t inches tall

To know the difference in their heights, we simply subtract Terrence’s height from Kalinda’a

Consider the function f(x) = 2 * (x - 20) ^ 2 - 3 What is the value of f(29) ?

Answers

Answer:

f(29) = - [tex]\frac{9}{290}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: substitute f(29) into the equation.

f(29) = 2(29 - 20)²⁻³

29 replaces x.

Step 2: simplify the exponent

f(29) = 2(29 - 20)⁻¹

2-3 is -1, so the exponent is -1

Step 3: distribute the exponent to the parentheses

f(29) = 2([tex]\frac{1}{29}[/tex] - [tex]\frac{1}{20}[/tex])

Since the exponent is a negative one, basically make it a fraction with the base as the denominator and the exponent as a numerator. I don't know too much about negative exponents, but this is how to factor in a -1.

Step 4: Distribute.

f(29) = [tex]\frac{2}{29} -\frac{2}{20}[/tex]

Step 5: Simplify before finding a common denominator (2/20 cancels out)

f(29) = 2/29 - 1/10

Step 6: Find a common denominator (290)

f(29) = [tex]\frac{20}{290}[/tex] - [tex]\frac{29}{290}[/tex]

Step 7: Simplify

f(29) = - [tex]\frac{9}{290}[/tex]

The word domain refers to a set of possible input values, on the other hand range refers to the set of possible output value.

How can I locate the domain?

Allow x to be an independent variable in the function y is equal to fx, and y is a reliant variable. A value for x is said to be in the domain of a function f if it successfully allows the production of a numerical result y using another value for x.

A train travels at 75 miles per hour.

here, time (t) is independent value and distance (d) is dependent value which is dependent on time (t).

(14 POINTS!) Based On the information in the table, is the cost of the apples proportional to the weight of apples ?

Answers

Answer:

yes it is proportional, if you subtract 3.76 from 5.64 you get 1.88 then add 1.88 to each number to make sure it's right.

Answer:

The statement of whether the cost is proportional to the cost and weight of apples is: yes, it is proportional.

Step-by-step explanation:

From what I can find out from the graph, I would firstly likely want to see if there is a constant between each pound and cost. Meaning, I would want to see if there is a rule that is used throughout the table.

From what I had found out, the rule of this table is:

(x = pounds of apples)

(y = cost of apples)

y = 1.88x

This means that in order to get the 'y' value, also known as the cost of apples, we must multiply 1.88 to the 'x' values, pounds of apples.

This can be found by:

First, dividing 3.76 to 2, your quotient is: 1.88

[tex]\frac{3.76}{2}=1.88[/tex]

Then we need to see if this applies to the other terms as well by multiplying 1.88 to each 'x'

y = 1.88x

y = 1.88(3) = 5.64

y = 1.88(4) = 7.52

y = 1.88(5) = 9.4

You get the same vaule, which means that this is proportional to the table provided.

Find m_ABD and mZCBD given m ABC = 77º. A (3x + 22) D 16 (5x - 17) B C mZ ABD |° and mZCBD​

Answers

Answer:

∠ ABD = 49°, ∠ CBD = 28°

Step-by-step explanation:

∠ ABD + ∠ CBD = ∠ ABC , substitute values

3x + 22 + 5x - 17 = 77 , that is

8x + 5 = 77 ( subtract 5 from both sides )

8x = 72 ( divide both sides by 8 )

x = 9

Thus

∠ ABD = 3x + 22 = 3(9) + 22 = 27 + 22 = 49°

∠ CBD = 5x - 17 = 5(9) - 17 = 45 - 17 = 28°

A new amusement park ride that last one minute can have up to 1,200 Riders per hour. How many riders can ride per minute.
