Rodrigo and Melissa went to the art supply store to buy drawing materials. Rodrigo bought 10
pencils and 7 felt-tip markers for a total of $19.00. Melissa bought 3 pencils and 5 felt-tip markers
for a total of $10.05. Which of the following systems of equations could be used to determine
the cost of one pencil, P, and one felt-tip marker, m?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

10P + 7m = 19 .......... 1

3P + 5m = 10.05 .......... 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost of pencil be represented by P, and felt-tip by m. So that;

Rodrigo bought 10 pencils and 7 felt-tip at the cost of $19.0.

⇒ 10P + 7m = 19 .......... 1

Melissa bought 3 pencils and 5 felt-tip at the cost of $10.05.

⇒ 3P + 5m = 10.05 .......... 2

From equations 1 and 2,

10P + 7m = 19 .......... 1

3P + 5m = 10.05 .......... 2

Multiply equation 1 by 3, and 2 by 10 to have;

30P + 21m = 57 ......... 3

30P + 50m = 100.5 ....... 4

Subtract equation 3 from 4,

30P - 30P + 50m - 21m = 100.5 - 57

29m =43.5

m = [tex]\frac{43.5}{29}[/tex]

 = 1.5

m = 1.5

Substitute the value of m in equation 2,

3P + 5m = 10.05 .......... 2

3P + 5(1.5) = 10.05

3P = 7.5 = 10.05

3P = 3

P = 1.0

Thus, the cost of a pencil is $1.0 and that of a felt-tip is $1.5.

martins savings account increases because he deposits $25 each week
calis pay increases by 3% per year
each week, an athlete getting into shape loses 2 pounds
mei-lin earns $9 an hour at her job

Answers

Answer:

Martin is the answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Incorrect - Martin is putting in $25 a week which means each week his bank is growing by exactly $25

Correct - Cali's pay is exponential since it is increasing each year by a percentage, so not a steady rate.

Incorrect - The athlete's weight is decreasing, so the opposite of growth.

Incorrect - And mei-lin can change how many hours she works so she will get a different amount for the time she works each day.

Unit 8: Right Triangles & Trigonometry Homework 4: Trigonometry: Ratios & Finding Missing Sides

Answers

Answer:

26.69

Step-by-step explanation:

The question lacks the required diagram. Find the diagram attached

The missing side is x;

From the triangle we are given;

Opposite = x

Hypotenuse = 29

Angle of elevation = 67 degrees

Using the SOH CAH TOA identity;

Sin theta = opposite/hypotenuse;

sin 67 = x/29

x = 29sin67

x = 29(0.9205)

x = 26.69

Hence the length of the missing side is 26.69

All trigonometric ratios of triangle PQR were calculated.

In the given right triangle PQR

PR = 14

QR = 50

So, using Pythagoras' theorem

PQ = 48

What are Sine, Cosine, and Tangent of a triangle?

Sine of an angle = Opposite side / Hypotenuse

cosine of an angle = Adjacent side/ Hypotenuse

Tangent of an angle = Opposite side/ Adjacent side

So, SinQ = 14/50 =7/25      

CosecQ = 1/SinQ = 25/7

CosQ= 48/50 = 24/25

SecQ = 1/CosQ = 25/24

TanQ = 14/48 = 7/24

CotQ = 1/tanQ = 24/7

SinR=24/25

CosecR = 1/SinR= 25/24

CosR=7/25

SecR = 1/Cosr = 25/7

TanR =24/7

CotR = 1/tanR = 7/24

Thus, All trigonometric ratios of triangle PQR were calculated.

Calculate the average rate of change over the interval from x=1 to x=3
-2

6

8

12

Answers

Answer:

The average rate of change over the given interval is 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to calculate the average rate of change over the given interval

Mathematically, we can calculate the average rate of change using the formula below;

f(b) - f(a)/b-a

The f values are same as the y values

Thus, we have it that;

a = 1 and b = 3

f(a) = -5 and f(b) = 19

The average rate of change is thus;

(19-(-5))/(3-1) = 24/2 = 12

The density of a certain material is such that it weighs 9 kilograms for every 7 cubic feet of volume. Express this density in pounds per pint. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

Answers

Answer:

1.641× 10^-3 pounds/ cubic inch

Step-by-step explanation:

Density= mass / volume

Mass of the material= 9 kilograms

Volume= 7 cubic feet

Density= 9/7= 1.286 kg/ ft^3

Density= 1.286 kg/ ft^3

To Convert to pounds per inch

1 kg/ ft^3 = 0.00128 pound / cubic inch

1.286 kg/ ft^3 = X pounds/ cubic inch

X=( 1.286 × 0.00128)

= 0.0016407087 pounds/ cubic inch

= 1.641× 10^-3 pounds/ cubic inch

Hence,this density in pounds per inch is 1.641× 10^-3 pounds/ cubic inch
