Members of the band are selling candy bars to raise money. The director uses this equation to calculate the amount of profit, p, made from selling n candy bars. p = 1.25n - 475 How many candy bars must be sold to make a profit of $950?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

380 candy bars

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

we are told that the expression for profit is

[tex]p = 1.25n - 475[/tex]-----------------1

the above equation represents the situation

given

profit is  $950

Required

n=number of bars

950=1.25n-475

collect like terms

950-475=1.25n

475=1.25n

divide both sides by 1.25

n=475/1.25

n= 380candy bars

Solve for x and y.
y = 2/3x - 2
y = -x + 3

Answers

Answer:

1. x= 3y+6/2

y=2/3x-2

2.x=−y+3

y=−x+3

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's solve for x.

y=2/3x-2

Step 1: Flip the equation.

2/3x-2=y

Step 2: Add 2 to both sides.

2/3x-2+2=y+2

2/3x=y+2

Step 3: Divide both sides by 2/3.

2/3x/2/3=y+2/2/3

x= 3y+6/2

Let's solve for y.

y=2/3x-2

2. Let's solve for x.

y=−x+3

Step 1: Flip the equation.

−x+3=y

Step 2: Add -3 to both sides.

−x+3+−3=y+−3

−x=y−3

Step 3: Divide both sides by -1.

-x/-1=y-3/-1

x=−y+3

Let's solve for y.

y=−x+3

(3x)(x-2)(x-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

First we can factor out the 3x from each and are then left with x^2-3x+2. Now we can go ahead and factor. Looking for two variables that multiply to become positive 2 and add to become negative 3, we get negative 2 and negative 1. We now know that both (x-1) and (x-2) are factors. We now have all three factors and we can multiply to check if we get the right answer, and we do.

If leticia invested $12,000 in an account in which the interest earned is continuously compounded at a rate of %2.5 find the total amount after 15 years

Answers

Given:

Principal value = $12000

Rate of interest = 2.5%

To find:

Total amount after 15 years.

Solution:

Formula for amount discontinuously compounded interest is

[tex]A=Pe^{rt}[/tex]

where, P is principal, r is rate of interest and t is time in years.

Substitute P=12000, r=0.025 and t=15 in the above formula.

[tex]A=12000e^{0.025(15)}[/tex]

[tex]A=12000e^{0.375}[/tex]

[tex]A=12000(1.45499141462)[/tex]

[tex]A=17459.8969754[/tex]

[tex]A\approx 17459.897[/tex]

Therefore, the amount after 15 years is $17459.897.

Ajay reads aloud from a sports magazine. He comes across the measurement 0.63 kilometer. How should he read this measurement aloud? Explain how you know.​

Answers

Answer:

"sixty-three hundredths of a Kilometer"

Step-by-step explanation:

Decimal measurements are read based on the place of their digits. In this case, Ajay would read this measurement as "sixty-three hundredths of a Kilometer". This is because the final digit of the decimal form measurement is in the "hundredths" position. One more to the right and it would be in the "thousandths" while one more to the left would be the "tenths"

Write the equation of the line that goes through (-2/3, 7/8) and is PARALLEL to 3x + 4y = 7

Answers

Answer:

6x+8y = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

we have 3x + 4y = 7

4y = -3x + 7

y = -3/4 x + 7/4

so slope is -3/4

2 parallel lines always have same slope

so the slope of our new line is -3/4

so y = -3/4 x + C

for c,

we have (x,y) = (-2/3,7/8)

7/8 = -3/4 * -2/3 + C

C = 3/8

so equation is

y = -3/4 x + 3/8

simplyfyig,

8y = -6x + 3

or, 6x+8y = 3

Evaluate each expression for the given value of the variable : x+1/2 + 5x-3/10 when x=3

Answers

Answer: (3)+1/2 + 5(3)-3/10 = 18.2

Answer:

18 1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

1. First, we can convert all the x's into 3's

Our Equation: 3+1/2 + 15 - 3/10

2. Now we know that 3+1/2 = 3 1/2

Our Equation : 3 1/2 + 15 - 3/10

3. Now, we can add 3 1/2 + 15

Our Equation: 18 1/2 - 3/10

4. Next we can convert 1/2 so that the denominator is 10 and we get 18 5/10

Our Equation: 18 5/10 - 3/10

5. Now, we can subtract 3/10 from 5/10

Our Answer: 18 2/10 or 18 1/5

A standard showerhead dispenses 21 gallons of water in 30 mins. At this rate, how many gallons of water will a standard showerhead dispenses in 13 minutes.

Answers

Answer:

9.1 gallons of water.

Step-by-step explanation:

A standard showerhead dispenses 21 gallons of water in 30 mins. At this rate, how many gallons of water will a standard showerhead dispenses in 13 minutes?

30 minutes = 21 gallons

13 minutes = x gallons

Cross Multiply

30 minutes × x = 13 minutes × 21 gallons

x = 13 minutes × 21 gallons/30 minutes

x = 9.1 gallons of water

Therefore, a standard showerhead dispenses 9.1 gallons of water in 13 minutes.

How would you solve absolute value equations with "or" and "and"? Sometimes even with coefficients.

Answers

9514 1404 393

Explanation:

In general, a system of equations has a solution that satisfies all of the equations. That is, the solution set is the intersection (and) of the solution sets of the individual equations in the system. Equations involving the absolute value function are no different.

That being said, you need to consider the meaning of an equation involving the absolute value function.

The function itself is piecewise defined:

  [tex]\displaystyle |x|=\left\{ {x, x\ge0} \atop {-x, x<0}} \right.[/tex]

So, any equation involving the absolute value function automatically resolves to two equations, each with its own condition on the function value.

__

Example 1:

  |x+1| > 3

is equivalent to the two disjoint conditional equations ...

  (x +1) > 3  and  (x +1) ≥ 0 . . . . OR

  -(x +1) > 3  and  (x +1) < 0

the first of these has the solution x > 2; the second of these has the solution x < -4. The solution set of this equation is the OR of the two solution sets:

  x < -4  or  x > 2

__

Example 2:

  |x +1| < 3

is equivalent to the two disjoint conditional equations ...

  (x +1) < 3  and  (x +1) ≥ 0 . . . . OR

  -(x +1) < 3  and  (x +1) < 0

The first of these has the solution -1 ≤ x < 2, and the second of these has the solution -4 < x < -1. Again, the solution set of this equation is the OR of the two solution sets. However, we find we can write that union as a single compound inequality:

  -4 < x < 2

__

When an absolute value equation involves more than one absolute value function, then the equation will probably resolve into multiple equations, each defined on its own domain. Sometimes keeping those domains straight can be tedious.

Above, we have considered inequalities. If you have an equation, you need to consider that it will likely resolve to two equations. The solution set will be the OR of the solutions to those two equations.

Example 3:

  |x +1| = 3

is equivalent to the two conditional equations ...

  (x +1) = 3  and  (x +1) ≥ 0 . . . . OR

  -(x +1) = 3  and  (x +1) < 0

The first of these has the solution x = 2; the second has the solution x = -4. The solution set is the OR of these two solutions:

  x = -4  or  x = 2

__

The "and" condition restricts the domain of each of the individual pieces of the equation. The "or" condition applies to the collection of solutions that may exist in each of those restricted domains.
