Molly and Norachai are selling pies for a school fundraiser. Customers can buy blueberry pies and pumpkin pies. Molly sold 5 blueberry pies and 12 pumpkin pies for a total of $143. Norachai sold 10 blueberry pies and 8 pumpkin pies for a total of $142. Find the cost each of one blueberry pie and one pumpkin pie.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Blueberry costs 9 dollars

Pumpkin costs 7 dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

Let "b" represent the price of a blueberry pie

Let "p" represent the price of a pumpkin pie

Step 1: Set equation

5b + 12p = 143 ----- 1

10b + 8p = 142 ----- 2

Step 2:  Isolate 1 for "b"

5b = 143 - 12p

[tex]b = \frac{143}{5}-\frac{12}{5}p[/tex]  ------- 3

Step 3: Substitute 3 into 2

[tex]10(\frac{143}{5}-\frac{12}{5} p )+8p=142\\286 - 24p + 8p = 142\\-24p + 8p = 142 - 286\\-16p = -144\\p = -\frac{144}{-16}\\ p = 9[/tex]

Step 4: Subsitute p = 9 into 1 for b

[tex]5p + 12(9) = 143\\5p + 108 = 143\\5p = 143 - 108\\5p = 35\\\frac{5p}{5}=\frac{35}{5}\\p = 7[/tex]

Therefore a pumpkin pie costs 7 dollars while a blueberry pie costs 9 dollars

In a jar there are red jelly beans and green jelly beans. In how many ways can you pick red jelly beans and the same number of green jelly​ beans?

Answers

Complete Question:

In a jar there are 19 red jelly beans and 10 green jelly beans. In how many ways can you pick 4 red jelly beans and the same number of green jelly​ beans?

Answer:

[tex]Both = 813960[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Red Jelly Beans = 19

Green = 10

Required

Select 4 out of 19 red jelly beans and 4 out of 10 green jelly beans

The keyword in the question is pick and this implies combination;

4 from 19 red jelly beans is calculated as follows

[tex]^nC_r = \frac{n!}{(n-r)!r!}[/tex]

Where n = 19 and r = 4

[tex]^{19}C_4 = \frac{19!}{(19-4)!4!}[/tex]

[tex]^{19}C_4 = \frac{19!}{15!4!}[/tex]

[tex]^{19}C_4 = \frac{19 * 18 * 17 * 16 * 15!}{15! * 4 * 3 * 2 * 1}[/tex]

[tex]^{19}C_4 = \frac{19 * 18 * 17 * 16}{4 * 3 * 2 * 1}[/tex]

[tex]^{19}C_4 = \frac{93024}{24}[/tex]

[tex]^{19}C_4 = 3876[/tex]

Similarly;

4 from 10 green jelly beans is calculated as follows

[tex]^{10}C_4 = \frac{10!}{(10-4)!4!}[/tex]

[tex]^{10}C_4 = \frac{10!}{6!4!}[/tex]

[tex]^{10}C_4 = \frac{10 * 9 * 8 * 7 * 6!}{6! * 4 * 3 * 2 * 1}[/tex]

[tex]^{10}C_4 = \frac{10 * 9 * 8 * 7 }{4 * 3 * 2 * 1}[/tex]

[tex]^{10}C_4 = \frac{5040}{24}[/tex]

[tex]^{10}C_4 = 210[/tex]

Ways of selecting both is calculated as follows

[tex]Both = 3876 * 210[/tex]

[tex]Both = 813960[/tex]

Ella is going to drive from her house to City A without stopping. Ella's house is 100 miles from City A and after driving for 3 hours, she will be 25 miles away from City A. Write an equation for D, in terms of t, representing Ella's distance from City A tt hours after leaving her house.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]d = 100-25t[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's use basic logic here.

If we are 100 miles away from a place, and we've got 25 miles to go, we've already travelled 75 miles.

Since we've travelled 75 miles in 3 hours, then we travel at a rate of [tex]75\div3=25[/tex] miles per hour.

The distance to City A will be represented as 100 - miles already travelled. We  can find how many miles have been travelled by multiplying 25 by [tex]t[/tex], the amount of hours we've spent driving.

This creates the equation [tex]d = 100 - 25t[/tex]

-11=r+(-2) I need to solve this problem ​

Answers

Answer: -8=r

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

r= -9

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the equation:

-11 = r+ (-2)

If we want to solve for r, we must isolate r on one side of the equation.

Let's simplify the right side. A + - can just be written as -

-11= r-2

2 is being subtracted from r. The inverse of subtraction is addition. Add 2 to both sides of the equation.

-11 + 2= r-2+2

-11+2=r

-9=r

r=-9

Let's check our solution. Plug -9 in for r and solve.

-11= -9 + (-2)

-11= -11

This checks out, so we know our solution is correct.

The solution to the equation -11=r+(-2) is r=-9

Write the equation of the line in slope-intercept form and identify the slope.
−5x + 10y = 20

Answers

Answer:

Slope = 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a line is y = mx + c

where

m is the slope

c is the y intercept

From the question the equation is

- 5x + 10y = 20

To find the slope we must first write the equation in the form above

- 5x + 10y = 20

Move - 5x to the right side of the equation

10y = 5x + 20

Divide both sides by 10

We have

[tex]y = \frac{5}{10} x + \frac{20}{10} [/tex]

[tex]y = \frac{1}{2} x + 10[/tex]

Comparing with the general form of equation above

Slope / m = 1/2

x = - 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Cross multiply

That's

4( 2x - 5) = 12( x + 2)

Expand the terms in the bracket

That's

8x - 20 = 12x + 24

Group like terms

8x - 12x = 24 + 20

- 4x = 44

Divide both sides by - 4

We have the final answer as

x = - 11

Hope this helps you

Answer: x = -11

Step-by-step explanation:

First Cross product  to reduce it

4(2x-5) = 12(x+2)   Now apply the distributive property on each sides and solve for x.

8x - 20 = 12x + 24   Add 20 to both sides

     +20           +20

8x = 12x +44        subtract 12x from both sides

-12x    -12x

-4x = 44                  Divide both sides by -4

x = -11  

Which of the following best defines an angle?
O A corner of a figure like a triangle or square
O Any object that has a vertex,
OTwo rays that share a common endpoint
O The point where two line segments intersect​

Answers

Answer:

Third option

Step-by-step explanation:

The first definition is not as broad as it should be, therefore, while an angle does meet that criteria, it's not a general definition, hence, it is incorrect. The second one is incorrect as well because a parabola has a vertex, and it is certainly not an angle. This definition is not specific enough, so it will be eliminated. The last one is again, too specific. The third one is the best answer because it is broad enough while still being specific.

Currently, your plane is cruising at an altitude of 33,000 feet and holding steady. You are instructed from the airline control tower that you need to get to a crusing altitude either below 31,000 or above 35,000 feet. If your plane can comfortably climb at an average rate of 800 feet per minute and descend at an average rate of 500 feet per minute, what is the range of times (in minutes) it will take your plane to be in the instructed cruising altitude?

Answers

Answer:

The range of time it would take the plane to be in the instructed area is 2.5 minutes to 4 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The current altitude of the plane = 33,000 feet

The required altitude of the plane = Below 31,000 or above 35,000 feet

The average climbing speed of the plane = 800 feet per minute

The average descending speed of the plane = 500 feet per minute

The difference in the current and required altitudes are;

For climbing we have  35,000 feet - 33,000 feet = 2,000 feet

For descending we have  33,000 feet - 31,000 feet = 2,000 feet

Speed = Distance/Time

∴ Time = Distance/Speed  

Based on the climbing and descending rate, we have;

The time it would take to climb 2,000 feet is t = 2000 feet/(800 feet/minute) = 2.5 minutes

The time it would take to descend 2,000 feet is t = 2000 feet/(500 feet/minute) = 4 minutes

The range of time it would take the plane to be in the instructed area is therefore;

Time for descending to time for ascending, which is 2.5 minutes to 4 minutes.

The range of time it would take the plane to be in the instructed area = 2.5 minutes to 4 minutes.

In a football game, Jim's team gained 7 yards on the first play, lost 2 yards on the second play, and lost 10 yards on the third play. How many total yards did Jim's team gain or lose after three plays?

Answers

Answer:

team loss after three games is 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

we will use positive sign for gain and negative sign for loss.

Given

Jim's team gained 7 yards on the first play

gain of yards = +7

lost 2 yards on the second play

loss of yards = -2

lost 10 yards on the third play

loss of yards = -10

Total yards gain or lost by Jim's team = +7 + (- 2) + ( - 10)

Total yards gain or lost by Jim's team = +7 -2 -10 = -5

sine sign is negative, it means there is loss and the net loss is 7 yards.

Thus, team loss after three games is 5.

Answers

Answer:

Sampling Error

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that the phenomenon is the naturally occurring difference between a sample statistic and the corresponding population parameter.

Now, it's sampling error because sampling error is simply defined as a deviation or difference in a sampled value as against the true population value due to the fact the sample is not a true representative of the population.

This is also similar to the definition given in the question.

Thus, it's sampling error!

2. Three more than four times a number is 15.

Answers

Answer:

The number is 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x

Four times a number = 4 *x = 4x

Three more than four times a number = 4x + 3

4x +3 = 15

Subtract 3 from both sides

4x + 3 - 3 = 15 -3

            4x = 12

Divide both sides by 4

           4x/4x = 12/4

Answers

Answer:

9.936in/min

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the rate at which a dwarf sea horse swims expressed as 49.68 feet per hour, to convert the speed to inches per minutes, the following conversion factors must be used.

1 foot = 12inches and 1 hour = 60 minutes

49.68 feet per hour can also be written as [tex]\dfrac{49.68* 1 ft}{1 hour}[/tex]

On conversion:

[tex]= \dfrac{49.68* 1 ft}{1 hour} * \dfrac{1 hour * 12 in}{1 ft * 60min} \\\\= \dfrac{49.68* 12in}{60 min} \\\\= \dfrac{596.16in}{60 min}\\\\= 9.936 in/min[/tex]

Hence the speed expressed in inches per minute is 9.936in/min
