10. Tim bought two copies of the same hardcover book and three
copies of the same paperback book cost $118. Sally bought three of
the hardcover books and two of the paperback books for $137. Find
the cost for each type of book.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Let hardcover book be x

Let paperback book be y

2x+3y=$118....Equation 1

3x+2y=$137.... Equation 2

Solve for x and y using simultaneous equation

Using elimination method

2x+3y=118......×3

3x+2y=137......×2

6x+9y=354

6x+4y=274

9y-4y=80

5y=80

y=80÷5=16

substituting y=16 into equation 1

2x+3(16)=118

2x+48=118

2x=70

x=70÷2=35

Therefore hardcover costs $35 each

paperback cover costs $16 each

Line d has a slope of 3/2. Line e has a slope of -2/3. Are line d and line e parallel or

We can determine from their equations whether two lines are parallel by comparing their slopes. If the slopes are the same and the y-intercepts are different, the lines are parallel. If the slopes are different, the lines are not parallel. Unlike parallel lines, perpendicular lines do intersect

A roll of quarters is shaped like a cylinder and contains 40 each quarter has a thickness of 1.75 and a diameter of 24.26 mm What measurement would be the closest to the volume of one roll of quarters in cubic millimeters

A) 5,335mm
B) 6,256mm
C) 129,428mm
D) 32,357mm

Answers

Answer:

D) 32,357mm^3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Quarters = 40[/tex]

[tex]Thickness = 1.75mm[/tex]

[tex]diameter = 24.26mm[/tex]

First, we calculate the volume of 1 roll.

The volume of the cylinder is:

[tex]V = \pi r^2h[/tex]

Where

[tex]r = \frac{1}{2} * diameter[/tex]

[tex]r = \frac{1}{2} * 24.26mm[/tex]

[tex]r = 12.13mm[/tex]

And the thickness represents the height.

So:

The volume is:

[tex]V = 3.142 * 12.13^2 * 1.75[/tex]

[tex]V = 809.03mm^3[/tex]

The volume of the 40 is:

[tex]Roll= 40 * 809.03mm^3[/tex]

[tex]Roll=32361.20mm^3[/tex]

Calculate the area

Answers

Answer:

140 feet squared

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's do this step by step. First, let's find the area of the rectangle, which is 8 times 10. It equals 80. Next, do the trangle. 6 times 10 is 60. So, 60 plus 80 equals 140.

Answer:

area of rectangle =L*B

8*10=80ft^2

area of triangle=1/2b*h

h is 8 ft

1/2*6*8

3*8

24ft^2

total area is 80+24

104ft^2

i)
Write an equation for the length (l) in terms of the width (w).

Use your understanding of simultaneous equations to determine the unknown
dimensions.

Find the area of the rectangle.

Answers

Width of rectangle = x
Length =3x+7
Perimeter of rectangle = 158cm
2(l+w)=158
2(3x+7+x)=158
2(4x+7)=158
8x+14=158
8x=158-14
x=144/8
x=18
Therefore the width of the rectangle is 18cm
Length=3x+18+7
54+7=61cm
Area=lxw
=61x18

in the sequence: 67, 55, 46, 34, 25,…, what number should come next?
a) 16
b) 13
c) 15
d) 19

Answers

Answer:

b) 13

Step-by-step explanation:

67 - 55 = 12

55 - 46 = 9

46 - 34 = 12

34 - 25 = 9

25 - x = 12

rearrange that so,

25 - 12 = x

x = 13

Answer:

b) 13

Step-by-step explanation:

67 - 12 = 55

55 - 9 = 46

46 - 12 = 34

34 - 9 = 25

pattern: subtract 12, subtract 9

the pattern tells us to subtract 12, so take take 25 and subtract 12 from it:

25 - 12 = 13

A blood sample has 50,000 bacteria present. a drug fights the bacteria such that every hour the number of bacteria remaining, r(n), decreases by half. If r(n) is an exponential function of the number, n, of hours since the drug was taken, find the bacteria present four hours after administering the drug.

Answers

Answer:

3125 bacteria

Step-by-step explanation:

Let r(0) be the initial amount of bacteria. Every hour, r(n) decreases by half. So, after one our new value for r(n) = (1/2)r(0). After two hours, r(n') =  (1/2)r(n) =  (1/2)(1/2)r(0) = (1/2)²r(0).

After n hours, r(n) = (1/2)ⁿr(0)

So when n = 4 hours and r(0) = 50,000, then

r(4) = (1/2)⁴r(0)

r(4) = (1/2)⁴ × 50,000

r(4) = (1/16) × 50,000

r(4) = 3125

So, after 4 hours, we have 3125 bacteria present.

Enter the value for that makes the given equation true.

It increased by 40% the second day.

To find:

The number of people in the conference on second day.

Solution:

The conference had 45 people and it increased by 40% the second day. So,

Number of people in the conference on second day [tex]=45+40\%\ of\ 45[/tex]

                                                                                        [tex]=45+\dfrac{40}{100}\times 45[/tex]

                                                                                        [tex]=45+18[/tex]

                                                                                        [tex]=63[/tex]

Therefore, the number of people in the conference on second day is 63.

The mall is 6 miles west of the highway. The hospital is 12 miles west of the mall. How far, and in what direction, is the hospital from the highway?

Answers

Answer: 18 miles west

Step-by-step explanation:

The mall is west of the highway.

The hospital is then west of the mall.

If the hospital is west of the mall which is already to the west of the highway, the Hospital must be west of the highway as well.

The hospital is 12 miles west of the mall which is then 6 miles west of the highway. As they are both west, it is a continuous distance and we can simply add their distances up and assume the distance is linear.

The distance between the hospital and the highway is therefore:

= 12 + 6

= 18 miles west
