Emily noticed that on halloween, her child got three basic types of candy: chocolate, gummy, and hard candy. She has 15 more hard candies that chocolate, and 5 less than twice the amount for gummy candy than chocolate. if she had a total of 178 pieces of candy, how many of each type did she get?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: gotta scroll down sry

Step-by-step explanation:

First set up equations with variables that show the information you have:
c = chocolate // g = gummy // h = hard candy

178 = c + g + h

h = c + 15

g = 2c - 5

Then, solve all the equations for a number:

178 = c + g + h (leave as is)

15 = -c + h (subtract 'c' from the original equation's right side and switch the sides of the equation)

-5 = -2c + g (subtract '2c' from the original equation's right side and switch the side of the equation)

Then, line up all the variables and subtract the top equation by the lower two:

178 = c + g + h

15 = -c + 0g + h

-5 = -2c + g + 0h

---------------------------

168 = 4c + 0g + 0h >>>> 168 = 4c

Solve for 'c' and plug it into the other equations to find 'h' and 'g':

168/4 = 4c/4

42 = c

15 = -(42) + h                    -5 = -2(42) +g

57 = h                                79 = g

Add all the numbers together to double-check:

42 + 57 + 79 = 178

chocolates = 42

gummies = 79

hard candies = 57

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

96 sq. cm. for cube a and cube b is 192sq cm

Answer:

Cube A: 64³ cm

Cube B: 512³ cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we know these figures are cubes, we only need to know the length of one side, 4. To find Cube A’s volume, we multiply 4 times 4 times 4 to get 64. Cube A has a volume of 64³ cm.

We know Cube B’s sides are twice as long as Cube A, so they have to be 8 cm. 8 times 8 times 8 is 512. Cube B has a volume of 512³ cm.

Reflecting a point across the YAXIS means that the X coordinate will switch signs

Reflecting a point across the XAXIS means that the Y coordinate will switch signs

Taking (-3, -8)....

Reflecting it across the y-axis, we will flip the sign of the X coordinate. It's -3, so we make that +3, giving us

Answer: 8.2% rounded to the nearest tenth

Step-by-step explanation:

The original price was 85.78 excluding the sales tax, the total price including the sales tax was 92.82. Subtract 92.82 minus 85.78 and you get 7.04 which was the amount added due to sales tax. Now you will need to find the percentage. What percent is 7.04 of 85.78. You can use the formula p=x times 100 divided by y. x is 7.04 times 100 is 704 then divided by y which is 85.78 you get 8.2 which is your percent.

I got my answer by understanding the reflection graph rule:

When you reflect a point across the x-axis, the x-axis will stay the same; however for the y-axis, we have to change the sign to its opposite. The term “reflect x-axis” means that we go across the x-axis. Therefore the x-axis stays the same, while the y-axis sign changes.

When you reflect a point across the y-axis, the y-axis will stay the same; however for the x-axis, we have to change the sign to its opposite. The term “reflect y-axis” means that we go across the y-axis. Hence why the y-axis stays the same, while the x-axis sign changes.

Three out of 5 students at Maria's school participate in a school club or sport. There are 475 students at marias school how many of them can be expected to participate in a school club or sport

Answers

We can calculate the expected number of students participating in a school club or sport by multiplying the total number of students at Maria's school (475) by the fraction of students who participate (3/5).

So, the expected number of participating students is:

475 * (3/5) = 285.

Therefore, we can expect 285 students out of 475 to participate in a school club or sport.

You have 2 different savings accounts. For Account​ A, the simple interest earned after 9 months is ​$6.75. For Account​ B, the simple interest earned after 21 months is ​$19.25. If the interest rate is ​3.6% for Account A and 2.2​% for Account​ B, how much is the principal in each​ account? Which account earned you the most interest the first​ month? Explain your answer.

Answers

Answer:

Account A Principal: $250

Account B Principal : $500

Account B earned $0.17 more interest in the first month

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the principal in account A be PA and the principal in account B be PB

Simple interest I = Prt where P is principal, r is interest rate (in decimal) and t - time  in years

Therefore, given interest I
P = I/rt

We will assume both interest rates are annual interest rates

For account A, interest = 3.6% per year
This works out to 0.036 per year

For account B, interest = 2.2% which works out to 2.2/100  per year = 0.022 per year

Account A
I = 6.75, r = 0.036 t = 9 months = 9/12 year = 3/4 year = 0.75 year

PA = 6.75/(0.036 x 0.75) = $ 250.00

Account B

I = 19,25, r = 0.022, t = 21/12 =  1.75 years

PB = 19.25/(0.022 x 1.75) = P = $ 500.00

Account A interest earned per month = 6.75/9 = $0.75

Account B interest earned per month = 19.25/21 = $0.92

Hence account B earned more interest in the first month
The amount of interest earned by account B over account A
= 0.92 = 0.75 = $0.17

the value of the x and y for the given system of equations are 6, and -2 respectively.

What are Systems of equations?

Simultaneous equations, a system of equations Two or more equations in algebra must be solved jointly (i.e., the solution must satisfy all the equations in the system). The number of equations must match the number of unknowns for a system to have a singular solution.

There are four methods for solving systems of equations: graphing, substitution, elimination, and matrices.

Given, a system of equations

2x + 5y = 2

2x - 5y = 22

Adding both equations:

4x = 24

x = 6

From equation 1

2 * 6 + 5y = 2

5y = -10

y = -2

Therefore, the value of the x and y for the given system of equations are 6, and -2 respectively.
