Answer:

a. The number of custom necklaces that can be manufactured if each requires 2 7/8 ounces of gold is 74 necklaces.

b. The value of the gold in each necklace is $1761

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) Number of necklaces

27/8 ounces of gold=2.875

No of necklaces=212.75oz x 1 necklaces/2.875oz

                          =74 necklaces

(b)Value of gold in each necklace

There are 2.875 oz of 14K gold in each necklace. Pure gold is 24K.

Mass of pure gold=2.875oz x 14k/24k

                              =1.677083oz

Pure 24K gold is worth $1050/oz.

Value of pure gold=1.677oz x 1050/1oz

                              = 1760.9 dollars

The value of the gold in each necklace is $1761

a) Number of custom necklaces that can be crafted if each requires 2 7/8 ounces of gold which is 74 necklaces.

b) The gold value of each necklace is $1761

  • Algebra is a branch of mathematics that deals with symbols and the rules for using those symbols.  

  • In elementary algebra, these symbols (now written in Latin and Greek letters) represent quantities with no fixed value, called variables.  

(a) Number of necklaces

2 7/8 ounces of gold = 2.875

Number of necklaces = 212.75 oz x 1 necklace / 2,875 oz

= 74 necklaces

(b) Gold value in each necklace

There is 2,875 oz of 14k gold in each necklace. Pure gold is 24K.

Mass of pure gold = 2,875 oz x 14k / 24k

= 1.677083oz

Pure 24-karat gold is worth $1,050 per ounce.

Pure Gold Value = 1,677 oz x 1050/1 oz

= $1760.9

The gold value of each necklace is $1761

Given the following system of equations: 2x + 6y = 12 4x + 3y = 15 Which action creates an equivalent system that will eliminate
Charra [1.4K]

Option A and B are correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following systems of equation:

2x + 6y = 12 \\4x + 3y = 15

We need to identify the action creates an equivalent system that will eliminate one variable when they are combined.

Checking the options:

a) Multiply the second equation by −2 to get −8x − 6y = −30

If we add equation(1) and the new equation(2) the variable y will be eliminated. So, this is the correct option.

b)  Multiply the first equation by 2 to get 4x + 12y = 24.

If we subtract new equation(1) and equation(2), the variable x will be eliminated. So, this is the correct option.

c) Multiply the second equation by −4 to get −16x − 12y = −60

By adding or subtracting, none of the variable is eliminated. So, it is not the correct option.

d) Multiply the first equation by −4 to get −8x − 24y = −48.

By adding or subtracting, none of the variable is eliminated. So, it is not the correct option.

So, Option A and B are correct.
