Five apples and four oranges cost $11.80. One apple and six oranges cost $9.90. how much does one orange cost?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

the cost of orange is 170

Answer 2

Answer:

One orange costs $1.45.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there are two variables, you have to set up a 2 variable equation.

Let's let a = apples and o = oranges.

So, we can set up this problem as:

5a + 4o = 11.80

1a  + 6o = 9.90

You can solve a 2-variable equation using either elimination or substitution. Here, I think it's easier to use substitution. To do that we have to substitute one variable with an equation that uses only the other so that we only have one variable.

We can manipulate our second equation so that it is:

a = 9.90 - 6o

Then, we can plug this in for a in the first equation. So,

5 (9.90 - 6o) + 4o = 11.80

49.5 -30o +4o = 11.80  (Distribute the 5)

49.5 - 26o = 11.80  (Combine like terms)

-26o = -37.7 (Subtract 49.5 from both sides)

o = 1.45 (Divide by -26)

o = 1.45

So, an orange costs $1.45.

The Extreme Rock Climbing Club planned a climbing expedition. The total cost was $3200, which was to be divided equally among the members going. Prior to the trip,10 members decided not to go. If the cost per person increased by $160, how many people went on the expedition?

Answers

Answer:

x = 25.

Step-by-step explanation:

Original cost per person:: 2000/x

Changed cost per person:: 2000/(x-5)

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

Equation:: changed - original = 20

2000/(x-5) - 2000/x = 20

2000x - 2000x + 2000*5 = 20x(x-5)

10000 = 20x^2-100

 

----

500 = x^2 - 5x

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

x^2 - 5x - 500 = 0

(x+20)*(x-25) = 0

-----

Only positive root makes sense ====> x = 25.

The population of a swarm of killer bees multiplies

10 fold in 50 days. Determine the correct

expression to calculate the number of bees after t

days if the initial swarm had 1000 bees.

Answers

Answer:

The correct  expression to calculate the number of bees after t  days if the initial swarm had 1000 bees is [tex]P = 1000 *e^{0.2*t}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given -

The population of a swarm of killer bees increases by 10 times in 50 days

The rate of increase of population is [tex]r = \frac{10}{50} = 0.2[/tex] per day

As we now the equation of population projection is

[tex]P= P_0 *e^{rt}\\[/tex]

Where P0 = initial population

P is the population after time t

and r is the rate of increase of population

Substituting the given values in above equation, we get -

[tex]P = 1000 *e^{0.2*t}[/tex]

Part A
What is the cost of Hannah's order if she buys 9 books?
$
Part B
Write a sentence to describe how you calculate the cost of Hannah's order.

Answers

Answer:

Part A:

1 book -- $7.25

9 books -- (9 * 7.25) = $65.25

And shipping fee -- (65.25 + 6.75) = $ 72

Part B

9 multiplied by the cost and added with the shipping fee to get Hannah's total cost.

Solve: 2x - 3y = 9 and x + 2y = 1​

Answers

Answer:

(3, - 1 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

2x - 3y = 9 → (1)

x + 2y = 1 → (2)

Rearrange (2) expressing x in terms of y by subtracting 2y from both sides

x = 1 - 2y → (3)

Substitute x = 1 - 2y into (1)

2(1 - 2y) - 3y = 9

2 - 4y - 3y = 9

- 7y + 2 = 9 ( subtract 2 from both sides )

- 7y = 7 ( divide both sides by - 7 )

y = - 1

Substitute y = - 1 into (3) for corresponding value of x

x = 1 - 2(- 1) = 1 + 2 = 3

solution is (3, - 1 )

Next, you do 4.5x3= 13.5 then you times that by 2 so 13.5x2= 27

Lastly, you do 2x3 on one side and 2x3 on the other side. For both of those you get 6, so you do 6+6 and you get 12
