Answer:

  • 147 sodas
  • 88 hot dogs

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem is similar to many others in which the sum of two quantities and their difference are given. The solution can be found easily when the equations for the relations are written in standard form.

<h3>Setup</h3>

Let s and h represent numbers of sodas and hot dogs sold, respectively. The given relations are ...

  • s +h = 235 . . . . . combined total
  • s -h = 59 . . . . . . difference in the quantities

<h3>Solution</h3>

Adding the two equations eliminates one variable.

  (s +h) +(s -h) = (235) +(59)

  2s = 294 . . . . simplify

  s = 147 . . . . . .divide by 2

  h = 147 -59 = 88 . . . . h is 59 less

147 sodas and 88 hot dogs were sold.

<em>Additional comment</em>

The solution to a "sum and difference" problem is always the same. One of the numbers is half the sum of those given, and the other is half their difference. ((235-59)/2 = 88)

1. A catering company’s recipe for salad uses a ratio of 2 c of dressing to 4 lb of vegetables. (a) Draw a model for the ratio.
IRISSAK [1]
1. ratio = 2 c of dressing / 4 lb of vegetables

Use two variables: d for the number of c of dressing and v for the number of pounds of vegetables.

Then d / v = 2/4 = 1/2 => d = v/2

Now you can make a table

v     d  

2    1

4    2

6    3

8    2

And you can draw a line for the points (2,1); (4,2); (6,3), (8,4) ... the slope of the graph is the ratio = 1/2

b) I already did it above as part ot the explanation: d/v = 1/2

Using interval notation, the domain off is [- 3, 5] and the domain of g is [- 2, 7] . On what domain is f defined
Scorpion4ik [409]

Note: I am assuming you mean ''on what domain is f+g is defined''.

Answer:

We conclude that

  • Dom(f+g) = [-2, 5]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the domain of f

[-3, 5]

Given the domain of g

[-2, 7]

  • The domain of a composition f+g would include the intersection of both domains.

In other words, the domain of a composition f+g includes all the inputs of x-values that are in the domain of both functions i.e. f and g.

so

Domain of f = [-3, 5]

The x-values lie in the domain of f interval are:

x = -3, -2, 1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5

Domain of g = [-2, 7]

The x-values lie in the domain of g interval are:

x = -2, 1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7

Therefore, the common x-values in both f and g would be:

-2, 1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5

Thus, we conclude that

  • Dom(f+g) = [-2, 5]
