Jenna and Becca were both selling cookies door to door. Jenna sold 8 boxes of cookies for every 3 boxes of cookies Becca sold. Combined, they sold a total of 385 boxes of cookies. How many boxes did each girl sell

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: Jenna sold 280 and Becca sold 105 boxes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 3x be the number of cookies Becca sold.

Then, the number of cookies Jenna sold = 8x

Since Combined, they sold a total of 385 boxes of cookies.

So, [tex]3x+8x=385[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow\ 11x=385\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=\dfrac{385}{11}\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=35[/tex]

So, Jenna sold 8(35) = 280 boxes

and Becca sold 3(35)=  105 boxes

Hence, Jenna sold 280 and Becca sold 105 boxes.

If y varies inversely as x, and y = 6 when x = 24, find x when y = 18

Answers

Answer:

x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Standard form for inverse variation:

y = k/x

We now use the given information to find k.

y = 6 when x = 24

6 = k/24

k = 6 * 24

k = 144

The equation for this inverse relation is

y = 144/x

For y = 18, we get

18 = 144/x

18x = 144

x = 144/18

x = 8

Answer:

x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the value of x when y = 18 we must first find the relationship between them.

The statement

y varies inversely as x is written as

[tex]y \: \: \alpha \: \: \frac{k}{x} [/tex]

where k is the constant of proportionality

From the question when

y = 6

x = 24

Substitute the values into the above equation

That's

[tex]6 = \frac{k}{24} [/tex]

Cross multiply

That's

k = 24(6)

k = 144

So the formula for the variation is

[tex]y = \frac{144}{x} [/tex]

When

y = 18

[tex]18 = \frac{144}{x} [/tex]

Cross multiply

18x = 144

Divide both sides by 18

x = 8

Hello, we need to solve this system, c being a real number.

[tex]\begin{cases}y &= 3x^2-5x\\y &= 2x^2-x-c\end{cases}[/tex]

y=y, right? So, it comes.

[tex]3x^2-5x=2x^2-x-c\\\\3x^2-2x^2-5x+x+c=0\\\\\boxed{x^2-4x+c=0}[/tex]

We can compute the discriminant.

[tex]\Delta=b^2-4ac=4^2-4c=4(4-c)[/tex]

If the discriminant is 0, there is 1 solution.

It means for [tex]4(4-c)=0 <=> 4-c=0 <=> \boxed{c=4}[/tex]

And the solution is

[tex]x_2=x_1=\dfrac{4}{2}=2[/tex]

If the discriminant is > 0, there are 2 real solutions.

It means 4(4-c) > 0 <=> 4-c > 0 <=> [tex]\boxed{c<4}[/tex]

And the solution are

[tex]x_1=\dfrac{4-\sqrt{4(4-c)}}{2}=\dfrac{4-2\sqrt{4-c}}{2}=2-\sqrt{4-c}\\\\x_2=2+\sqrt{4-c}[/tex]

If the discriminant is < 0, there are no real solutions.

It means 4(4-c) < 0 <=> 4-c < 0 <=> [tex]\boxed{c>4}[/tex]

There are no real solutions and the complex solutions are

[tex]x_1=\dfrac{4-\sqrt{4(4-c)}}{2}=\dfrac{4-2\sqrt{i^2(c-4)}}{2}=2-\sqrt{c-4}\cdot i\\\\x_2=2+\sqrt{c-4}\cdot i[/tex]

How many dots are there at t minutes? Solve the problems by your preferred method. Your
solution should indicate how many dots will be in the pattern at 3 minutes, 100 minutes,
and t minutes. Be sure to show how your solution relates to the picture and how you
arrived at your solution.



Answers

Answer:

The image to the question is missing, but I found a matching image, which is attached to this solution

Answer:

3 minutes = 13 dots

100 minutes = 401 dots

t minutes = 4(t) + 1 dots

Step-by-step explanation:

From the image, the following can be noticed:

time (Mins)       dots

0                          1

1                           5

2                          9

The pattern gotten from this progression is that, if the time is multiplied by 4, and the result added to one, the result will be the number of dots.

hence, when the time is 0 minutes:

0 × 4 = 0

0 + 1 = 1 ( 1 dot)

when the time is 1 minute

1 × 4 = 4

4 + 1 = 5 (5 dots)

when the time is 2 minutes

2 × 4 = 8

8 + 1 = 9 ( 9 dots)

Therefore,

when the time = 3 minutes

3 × 4 = 12

12 + 1 = 13 dots

at 100 minutes:

100 × 4 = 400

400 + 1 = 401 dots

at t miutes

t × 4 = 4t

4t + 1 = number of dots

Therefore number of dots at t minutes = 4(t) + 1

Caren held 260 of the shares for herself and sold the rest in equal amounts to six investors. How many shares does each investor own? If the business fails and leaves $65,000 in debt, for how much would each investor be liable

Answers

Answer:

40 shares each and $3,000 each

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation is shown below:

For the number of shares

Since there are total of 500 shares out of which 260 shares are held by Caren so the remaining shares left is

= 500 shares - 260 shares

= 240 shares

And, there are 6 investors

So the number of shares owned by each investor is

[tex]= \frac{240}{6}[/tex]

= 40 shares

Now the value of the shares held by each inventory is

[tex]= 40 shares \times \$75[/tex]

= $3,000

Total debt is $65,000

So, the liability per share is

[tex]= \frac{\$65,000}{500}[/tex]

= $130

And each investor holds 40 shares

So, each investor is liable for

[tex]= \$130 \times 40\ shares[/tex]

= $5,200

As we can see that the value of the shares is less than the amount liable by each investor

So each investor is liable for $3,000

And, the liability of Caren is

[tex]= 260\ shares \times \$75[/tex]

= $19,500

Please solve, 7(2-2x)= -13-5x​

Answers

Answer:

[tex]x=3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We can try and isolate x on one side of the equation to find its value.

First let's apply the distributive property on the left side and get a simpler equation.

[tex]7(2-2x)=-13-5x\\\\14-14x = -13-5x[/tex]

Now, to simplify this down, we can add 5x to both sides.

[tex]14-14x + 5x = -13-5x + 5x\\\\14-9x=-13[/tex]

Now we can add 13 to both sides:

[tex]14-9x+13=-13+13\\\\27-9x=0[/tex]

Now we subtract 27 from both sides:

[tex]27-9x-27=0-27\\\\-9x=-27[/tex]

h
Isaac worked____
hours.
Ruby worked____
hours.
Svetlana worked____
hours.

Answers

Answer:

Isaac worked 12 hours

Ruby worked 18 hours

Svetlana worked 72 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Here in this question, we are interested in knowing the number of hours each person worked.

We proceed as follows;

Let the number of hours Isaac worked be x hours.

From the question, we are told that Ruby worked 6 hours more than Isaac

So the number of hours Ruby worked will be;

(x + 6) hours

Also;

Svetlana worked 4 times as many as Ruby:

This means that we have to multiply the number of hours Ruby worked by 4 to get the number of hours that Svetlana worked;

So the number of hours Svetlana worked will be : 4(x + 6) hours

Since the three worked a total of 102 hours, to get the number of hours each worked, we need to add together the number of hours each individual put in to work and equate to 102;

Mathematically, that would be;

x + x + 6 + 4(x + 6) = 102

2x + 6 + 4x + 24 = 102

6x + 30 = 102

6x = 102-30

6x = 72

x = 72/6

x = 12 hours

So Isaac worked x hours = 12 hours

Ruby worked (x + 6) hours = 12 + 6 = 18 hours

Svetlana worked 4(x + 6) hours = 4(18) = 72 hours

Suppose the test scores of students in a class are normally distributed with a mean of 86 and a standard deviation of 4. What is the z-score for a student that scored 76 on a test? A.−4 .−2.5 C.2.5 D.4

Answers

Answer:

-2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Here in this question, we are interested in calculating the z-score for a student that had a particular mark at the test

To calculate the z-score, we need to use a mathematical formula

Mathematically;

z-score = (x - mean)/SD

From the question;

x = 76

mean = 86

standard deviation SD = 4

Plugging these values in the equation, we have;

z-score = (76-86)/4 = -10/4 = -2.5

A set of 9 numbers has a mean of 20. What additional number must be included in this set to create a new set with a mean that is 4 less than the mean of the original set?

Answers

Greetings from Brasil...

The average for a set of 9 elements will be

(A + B + C + D + E + F + G + H + I) ÷ 9 = 20

Let's make (A + B + C + D + E + F + G + H + I) like S

(I chose S to remember a sum)

Let us think.....

S ÷ 9 = 20

S = 20 × 9

S = 180

So,  (A + B + C + D + E + F + G + H + I) = 180

According to the statement, we will include a number (element J) in the sum to obtain a mean of (20 - 4), that is:

(A + B + C + D + E + F + G + H + I + J) ÷ 10 = (20 - 4)

as seen above, (A + B + C + D + E + F + G + H + I) = 180, then

(180 + J) ÷ 10 = 16

(180 + J) = 160

J = 160 - 180

J = - 20

So, including the number - 20 (minus 20) in the original mean we will obtain a new mean whose result will be 16
