Jacob and sumalee each improved their yards by planting daylilies and geraniums. They bought their supplies from the same store. Jacob spent $107 on 11 daylilies and 4 geraniums. Sumalee spent $60 on 4 daylilies and 12 geraniums. Find the cost of one daylilies and the cost of one geranium.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Daylily: $9

Geranium: $2

Step-by-step explanation:

1 daylily costs x.

1 geranium costs y.

11x + 4y = 107

4x + 12y = 60

Multiply the first equation by 3 and subtract the second equation from it.

29x = 261

x = 9

4x + 12y = 60

4(9) + 12y = 60

12y = 24

y = 2

Answer:

Daylily: $9

Geranium: $2

Answer 2

Answer:

1) Set up a system of equations. Assign each plant a variable. I used X for Daylillies and Y for Geraniums. In this case:

11x + 4y = 107

4x + 12y = 60

2) Get one variable by itsef. You can choose to either get the X or the Y by itself. For the sake of ease, I'll go with achieving X.

3) Using the equation 4x + 12y = 60, isolate the 4x.

4x = -12y + 60

4) Divide both sides by 4.

x = -3y + 15

5) X is isolated. Now plug in that isolated X into another remaining equation in order to isolate Y. Don't forget to combine like terms.

11(-3y + 15) + 4y = 107

-33y + 165 + 4y = 107

-29y + 165 = 107

-29y = -58

y = 2

6) You have your Y, which means that each Geranium costs $2 each. Now, you need to find X. Plug in Y into any of the first two equations that we started with.

4x + 12(2) = 60

4x + 24 = 60

4x = 36

x = 9

7) You now have both X and Y. Daylillies cost $9 each, and Geraniums cost $2 each.

8) You can double-check your answers by plugging in your final X and Y values into any of the first equations you wrote. If it comes out equal, it works.

Rab has trouble remembering the difference between addition of a positive and
negative number and multiplication of a positive and negative number. Explain how
you could clarify the concepts for him. Use an example to back up your explanation.

Answers

Addition of a positive and negative number always means that you are going to subtract the number e. g. 4+-1 = 3. However, multiplication of a positive and negative number means the answer is always negative e. g. 5 x - 3 = - 15.

The addition of positive and negative number will always subtract with sign of maximum value.

The multiplication of positive and negative number will have a negative sign always.

AdditionConcept for the addition of positive and negative number

When two numbers which have different sign are added, they will always be subtracted from each other. The sign will vary accordingly.

with negative sign: when two numbers are added such that the number with negative sign has the larger value, then both numbers will get subtracted but with negative sign.

Example: Consider two number -5 and 4

= -5 + 4

= -1

Here, 5 is the larger value. So, the sign comes is negative.

with positive sign: when two numbers are added such that the number with positive sign has the larger value, then both numbers will get subtracted but  with positive sign.

Example: consider two number 5 and -4.

= 5 + (-4)

= 1

Here, 5 is the large number. So, the sign comes is positive.

MultiplicationConcept for the multiplication of positive and negative number:

When two numbers with opposite signs are multiplied, the answer is always a negative number.

Example; Consider two numbers 4 and -5.

On multiplication,

4×(-5) = -20

Thus, the multiplication of two numbers with different signs will always give a negative number.

Step-by-step explanation:

Jon recently drove to visit his parents who live 270 270 miles away. On his way there his average speed was 24 24 miles per hour faster than on his way home (he ran into some bad weather). If Jon spent a total of 12 12 hours driving, find the two rates.

Answers

Answer:

He drove there at 60 mph, and he drove back at 36 mph.

Step-by-step explanation:

one way distance = d = 270 miles

average speed on way back = s

average speed on the way there = s + 24

time driving there = t

time driving back = 12 - t

average speed = distance/time

distance = speed * time

going there:

270 = (s + 24)t

270 = st + 24t

going back

270 = s(12 - t)

270 = 12s - st

We have a system of equations:

270 = st + 24t

270 = 12s - st

Solve the first equation for t.

t(s + 24) = 270

t = 270/(s + 24)

Substitute in the second equation.

270 = 12s - s[270/(s + 24)]

270 = 12s - 270s/(s + 24)

Multiply both sides by s + 24.

270s + 6480 = 12s^2 + 288s - 270s

12s^2 - 252s - 6480 = 0

Divide both sides by 12.

s^2 - 21s - 540 = 0

(s - 36)(s + 15) = 0

s = 36 or s = -15

The average speed cannot be negative, so we discard the solution s = -15.

s = 36

s + 24 = 60

Answer: He drove there at 60 mph, and he drove back at 36 mph.

So in short, [tex]\frac{(6+2)^3-12}{5}=100\\\\[/tex]

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

The mistake Jerry likely made was that he only cubed the 2 and didn't realize the 6 was part of that cubing process. It seems he didn't add first and decided to cube before adding.

This is probably what steps Jerry did

[tex]\frac{6+2^3-12}{5}\\\\\frac{6+8-12}{5}\\\\\frac{14-12}{5}\\\\\frac{2}{5}\\\\[/tex]

But as mentioned, those steps are incorrect because the 6 is part of the cubing operation. In other words, Jerry should have added the 6+2 first before cubing afterward (due to PEMDAS determining the order of operations).

Or you could think of it like this

[tex]\frac{(6+2)^3-12}{5}\\\\\frac{(6+2)(6+2)(6+2)-12}{5}\\\\\frac{(8)(8)(8)-12}{5}\\\\\frac{512-12}{5}\\\\\frac{500}{5}\\\\100[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

r can be 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to get a possible value of r

From the question, the value of r is between 0 and 3

Mathematically, we know that in degrees pi is the same as 180 degrees

In a case where we have r = 1/2

we have it that;

cos(pi/2) = 2 cos (pi/2)

Since pi/2 is 90 and cos 90 is zero; then we have it that the two sides of the equation is the same and r can be 1/2

Una torre de 28.2 m de altura esta situada a la orilla de un rio, desde lo alto del edificio el ángulo de depresión a la orilla opuesta es de 25.2°. Calcular el ancho del río

Answers

Answer:

El ancho del río es 59.9 metros.

Step-by-step explanation:

El ancho del río lo podemos calcular con la siguiente relación trigonométrica asumiendo que la torre forma un triángulo rectángulo con el río:

[tex]tan(\theta) = \frac{CO}{CA}[/tex]

En donde:

CA: es el cateto adyacente = Altura de la torre = 28.2 m

CO: es el cateto opuesto = ancho del río =?

θ: es el ángulo adyacente a CA

Dado que el ángulo de depresión (25.2°) está ubicado fuera de la parte superior de la hipotenusa del triángulo que forma la torre con la orilla opuesta del río, debemos calcular el ángulo interno (θ) como sigue:

[tex]\theta = (90 - 25.2)^{\circ} = 64.8 ^{\circ}[/tex]

Ahora, el ancho del río es:

[tex]CO = tan(\alpha)*CA = tan(64.8)*28.2 = 59.9 m[/tex]

Por lo tanto, el ancho del río es 59.9 metros.
