What was the cost of 1 orange?_________________________

Enter numbers, decimals and - signs as needed, do not enter any other symbols or spaces)​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The cost of 1 orange y = 1.1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let cost of 1 apple = x

Cost of 1 orange = y

We will make equations from given statements to find the cost of 1 orange i.e y

Wilma bought 3 apples and 6 oranges for $9: Mathematical expression will be: [tex]3x+6y=9[/tex]

Fernando bought 6 apples and 2 oranges for $7. Mathematical expression will be: [tex]6x+2y=7[/tex]

Let:

[tex]3x+6y=9--eq(1)\\6x+2y=7--eq(2)[/tex]

Multiply eq(1) by 2 and subtract both equations.

[tex]6x+12y=18\\6x+2y=7\\- \ \ \ - \ \ \ \ -\\-----\\10y=11\\y=11/10\\y=1.1[/tex]

So, We get value of y=1.1

Now, put value of y in eq(1) to find value of x

[tex]3x+6y=9\\3x+6(1.1)=9\\3x=9-6.6\\3x=2.4\\x=2.4/3\\x=0.8[/tex]

So, the cost of 1 orange y = 1.1

Answers

Answer:

2.13% (rounded to nearest thousandth)

Step-by-step explanation:

You subtract 24 from 23.5 to get 0.5

Then you divide 0.5 by 23.5 to get 0.02127

Then you multiply that by 100 to get your percent error

Taking 24 then using the process of elimination the total percentage that he was off by was 1.05% off

Use Cramer's rule to find the solution to the following system of linear equations.
x-2y = -7

Answer:

x = 53

y = 30

Step-by-step explanation:

Step(I):-

Given equations are

x -2y =-7 ...(I)

5x-9y =-5 ..(ii)

The matrix form  AX = B

                    [tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&-2\\ 5 & -9\\\end{array}\right] \left[\begin{array}{ccc}x\\y\\\end{array}\right] = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}-7\\-5\\\end{array}\right][/tex]

The determinant

[tex]= \left|\begin{array}{ccc}1&-2\\5&-9\\\end{array}\right| = -9+10 =1[/tex]

By using Cramer's Rule

Δ₁ =      [tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-7&-2\\\\-5&-9\end{array}\right][/tex]



The determinant is     Δ₁ = -9 X -7 - (10 ) = 53

x = Δ₁ / Δ

x = 53

The determinant

Δ₂ =



Δ₂ = -5 +35

     

 

y = Δ₂/Δ =  30

     

 x - 2y = -7

[tex]D=\left|\, 1\quad-2\atop5\quad-9\right|=1\cdot(-9)-(-2)\cdot5=-9+10=1\\\\\\x=\dfrac{\left|-7\quad-2\atop-5\quad-9\right|}1=-7(-9)-(-2)(-5)=63-10=53\\\\\\y=\dfrac{\left|\, 1\quad-7\atop5\quad-5\right|}1=1\cdot(-5)-(-7)\cdot5=-5+35=30[/tex]


A couple of travelers are buying souvenirs at the gift shop in Istanbul, Turkey. Jake buys a
keychain for $7.65 and 5 pounds of Turkish delights. Tina buys postcards for $2.45 and 4
pounds of Turkish delights for her mom. Use the variable p to represent the price, in dollars,
per pound of cherries. Write and simplify an expression to represent how much more Jackson
spent.

Answers

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p represent the cost of Turkish delights in dollar per pound. Therefore the money spent by Jake who bought 4 pounds of Turkish delight is:

money spent by Jake = 7.65 + 5p

The money spent by Tina who bought 4 pounds of Turkish delight is:

Money spent by Tina = 2.45 + 4p

The money Jake spent more = difference between money spent by Jake and that spent by Tina = money spent by Jake - money spent by Tina = (7.65 + 5p) - (2.45 + 4p) = 5.20 + p

The Stock Market nadia is a stockbroker. Earns 14​% commission each week. Last​ week, sold ​7200$ worth of stocks. How much did make last week in​ commission? If averages that same amount each​ week, how much did make in commission in​ 2011?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

C=0.14×7,200=1008

Nadia made a total of $1008 last week in commission sales

b). To express the total amount she made in 2011, we derive the formula below;

Total amount (2011)=Average weekly commission× number of weeks in 2011

where;

Average weekly commission=$1008

number of weeks in 2011=52

replacing;

Total amount (2011)=(1008×52)=52,416

The total amount Nadia in commission in 2011=$52,416

Linear equations

Answers

Answer:

- So were x is 0 that is your y-intercept.

y-intercept: 5

- For your slope it is alway Rise over Run and if your slope is negative you might go down instead of up. So for this table your slope is a zero slope because it is going directly across the graph horizontally. Think of it as a stick figure, with a positive slope they walk up the line with a negative they walk down and zero they walk strait on flat ground. so therefore there is no slope.

You always have your y-intercept in you equation

y=mx+b   mx is slope and b is your y-intercept

since your line is not negative or positive and is horizontal a zero slope meaning there is like no slant or angle to your line your equation will look like this.

y=5

because there is no mx (slope) and only a y-intercept

slope: 0

y-intercept: 5

i need help with how to answer B because i don’t know

Answers

Answer: 48 feet

In order to get the answer you have to plug 12 into the equation you made in part a.

Firstly, let's check your answer to part A.

We know that there is no y-intercept because the line crosses the origin (0,0).

Let's use the slope formula to find the slope:

[tex]\frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1} = \frac{20 - 0}{5-0} = \frac{20}{5} = 4[/tex]

So, the slope is actually 4x.

Now, we go on to answer part b.

y = 4x

Plug in the 12

y = 4(12)

y = 48

Therefore Kelvin will have walked 48 feet after 12 seconds.

I hope this helps!!

Grass sod installation costs $2 per square foot and flower bed installation costs $12 per square foot. Her budget for the project is $3,000. Write an equation that represents the square feet of grass sod, x, and the square feet of flower beds, y, that she could afford if she used her entire budget.

Answers

Answer: 2x+12y<3000

Step-by-step explanation:

x intercept: (1,500,0)

y intercept: (0,250)

The linear equation that represents the total cost will be 2x + 12y = 3000.

What is a linear equation?

A connection between a number of variables results in a linear model when a graph is displayed. The variable will have a degree of one.

A mortgage holder is making arrangements to scene her yard. She intends to recruit experts to introduce grass turf in certain pieces of the yard and blossom beds in different parts. Grass turf establishment costs $2 per square foot and blossom bed establishment costs $12 per square foot. Her spending plan for the venture is $3,000.

Let 'x' be the square feet of grass sod and 'y' be the square feet of flower beds. Then the total cost is given as,

2x + 12y = 3000

The linear equation that represents the total cost will be 2x + 12y = 3000.

Write the slope-intercept form of the equation of the line described.

Answers

Answer:

Please check the explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

                                           6)

Given the line

[tex]y=-\frac{1}{3}x+3[/tex]

We know that the slope-intercept form of the line equation is

[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]

where m is the line and b is the y-intercept

Thus, the slope of line = -1/3

We know that parallel lines have the same slope.

Hence, the slope of the parallel line is also m=-1/3

So, substituting m = -1/3 and (3, 1) in the slope-intercept form to find the y-intercept

[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]

[tex]1=\frac{-1}{3}\left(3\right)+b[/tex]

Switch sides

[tex]\frac{-1}{3}\left(3\right)+b=1[/tex]

[tex]-1+b=1[/tex]

[tex]b=2[/tex]

Thus, the equation line in slope-intercept form

[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]

[tex]y=-\frac{1}{3}x+2[/tex]

                                             8)

Given the line

[tex]y=\frac{1}{4}x+1[/tex]

We know that the slope-intercept form of the line equation is

[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]

where m is the line and b is the y-intercept

so the slope of line = 1/4

As we know that the slope of the perpendicular line is basically the negative reciprocal of the slope of the line, so

The slope of the perpendicular line will be: -4

Thus, subtituting m = -4 and (-1, 4) in the point-slope form

[tex]y-y_1=m\left(x-x_1\right)[/tex]

[tex]y-4=-4\left(x-\left(-1\right)\right)[/tex]

writing the point-slope form in the slope-intercept form

[tex]y-4=-4\left(x+1\right)[/tex]

add 4 to both sides

[tex]y-4+4=-4\left(x+1\right)+4[/tex]

[tex]y=-4x[/tex]
