The total number of small drinks 's' bought by Maria is 7.

The total number of medium drinks 'm' drinks bought by Maria is 6.

<h3>What is system of linear equations?</h3>

A collection of one or more linear equations containing the same variables is known as a system of linear equations (or linear system).

Formation of the linear equation for the drinks bought by Maria:

The total number of drinks bought by the Maria is 13.

Lets say 'm' represents the number of medium drink.

's' represents the number of small drink.

Total drinks comprises of medium drinks and small drinks.

Thus,

s + m = 13, is the first linear equation.

Now medium drinks cost $3.

Total cost for purchasing medium drinks = (price of one medium drink)×(total number of medium drinks)

Total price for medium drinks = 3×m

Similarly,

Total cost for purchasing small drinks = (price of one small drink)×(total number of small drinks)

Total price for small drinks = 2×s

Total cost = total cost of medium drink + total cost of small drink

          32  = 3×m + 2×s, is second linear equation.

From equation first substitute the value of 'm' in second equation to fine the total number of drink.

32 = 3×(13 - s) + 2×s

32 = 39 - 3s + 22

s = 7

Put s = 7 in first equation and calculate 'm'.

m = 13 -7

m = 6

Therefore, The total number of small drinks 's' bought by Maria is 7.

The total number of medium drinks 'm' drinks bought by Maria is 6.

What is the answer to 10n=40
elixir [45]
Solving for variables is easy as all we must do is isolate the variable and simplify. In this case, to isolate the variable, we simply need to divide "n" by 10 (because the "n" is being multiplied by 10).

 10n=40
/10   /10
n=4

Using the math above, we can see that n=4.

Help? which one is it
Ierofanga [76]

Here's the solution,

The given figure is of a parallelogram,

and we know that opposite sides of a parallelogram are equal, so

=》

y + 19 = 2y

=》

19 = 2y - y

=》

y = 19

and,

=》

2x - 8 = x + 16

=》

2x - x = 16 + 8

=》

x = 24

hence, the values are :

x = 24

y = 19

Which list contains values that are all part of the solution set of the graphed inequality? 2, 1, 3. 9, 4 2001. 3, 4, 0, 2. 6 1.
olya-2409 [2.1K]

The inequality is,

0\leq x\leq 2001.3

we have given that the solution set

2, 1, 3. 9, 4 2001. 3, 4, 0, 2. 6 1. 1, 1. 5, 19. 7, 8. 2 11, 1, 48. 5, 7.

here we have given that all the values of x are positive and

Which is the smallest point in above set?

0

and

Which is the highest point in the above set?

2001.3

Therefore,

we have a=0 and b=2001.2

Our equality lie in a and b

Therefore,

a\leq x\leq b

Plug the value of a and b we get

0\leq x\leq 2001.3

Therefore we get the inequality is,

0\leq x\leq 2001.3

Express each of the following quadratic functions in the form of f(x) = a (x - h)²+ k.Then,state the minimum or maximum value,ax
Ivan

Given:

The function is:

f(x)=-2x^2+7x+4

To find:

Express the quadratic equation in the form of f(x)=a(x-h)^2+k, then state the minimum or maximum value,axis of symmetry and minimum or maximum point.

Solution:

The vertex form of a quadratic function is:

f(x)=a(x-h)^2+k              ...(i)

Where, a is a constant, (h,k) is the vertex and x=h is the axis of symmetry.

We have,

f(x)=-2x^2+7x+4

It can be written as:

f(x)=-2\left(x^2-3.5x\right)+4

Adding and subtracting square of half of coefficient of x inside the parenthesis, we get

f(x)=-2\left(x^2-3.5x+(\dfrac{3.5}{2})^2-(\dfrac{3.5}{2})^2\right)+4

f(x)=-2\left(x^2-3.5x+(1.75)^2\right)-2\left(-(1.75)^2\right)+4

f(x)=-2\left(x-1.75\right)^2+2(3.0625)+4

f(x)=-2\left(x-1.75\right)^2+6.125+4

f(x)=-2\left(x-1.75\right)^2+10.125                ...(ii)

On comparing (i) and (ii), we get

a=-2,h=1.75,k=10.125

Here, a is negative, the given function represents a downward parabola and its vertex is the point of maxima.

Maximum value = 10.125

Axis of symmetry : x=1.75

Maximum point = (1.75,10.125)

Therefore, the vertex form of the given function is f(x)=-2\left(x-1.75\right)^2+10.125, the maximum value is 10.125, the axis of symmetry is x=1.75 and the maximum point is (1.75,10.125).
