grigory [225]

The system of inequalities are x + y ≥ 7 and 3.75x + 1y ≤ 20 The one possible solution is 4 cupcakes and 3 donuts.

Solution:

Given, Daniel and his children went into a bakery and where they sell cupcakes for $3.75 each and donuts for $1 each.

Daniel has $20 to spend and must buy a minimum of 7 cupcakes and donuts altogether.

⇒ "x" represents the number of cupcakes purchased

⇒ "y" represents the number of donuts purchased,

we have to write and solve a system of inequalities graphically and determine one possible solution.

Now, he should buy minimum 7 items, then x + y ≥ 7 ⇒ (1)

And, he has $20, so his maximum purchase is $20 then, 3.75x + 1y ≤ 20 ⇒ (2)

Now, suppose that he took 5 cupcakes, then he must take at least 2 donuts to satisfy (1)

So, substitute x and y values in (2)

⇒ 3.75(5) + 1(2) ≤ 20

⇒ 20.75 ≤ 20 ⇒ condition failed

So he can take maximum of 4 cupcakes only, and subsequently he has to take minimum of 3 donuts.

Hence, the one possible solution is 4 cupcakes and 3 donuts

HELP ME Write and solve a proportion to find y.

Phoenix [80]

Given:

A figure of dilation and the center of dilation is O.

To find:

The value of y.

Solution:

The distance between center and vertex of image (d') is proportional to the distance between center and the corresponding vertex of original figure (d).

$d'\propto d$

$d'=kd$

$\dfrac{d'}{d}=k$

Where, k is the scale factor or constant of proportionality.

So, the scale factor for the given dilation is

$k=\dfrac{OB'}{OB}$

$k=\dfrac{36}{16}$

$k=\dfrac{9}{4}$

We know that,

$k=\dfrac{\text{Side length of image}}{\text{Corresponding side length of original figure}}$

$\dfrac{9}{4}=\dfrac{A'C'}{AC}$

$\dfrac{9}{4}=\dfrac{27}{y}$

$9\times y=27\times 4$

Divide both sides by 9.

$y=\dfrac{27\times 4}{9}$

$y=3\times 4$

$y=12$

Therefore, the value of y is 12.

John read the first 114 pages of the novel, which was 3 less than 1/3 of the novel

Nastasia [14]

Let p = total pages in the book
114 pages of a novel which was 3 pages less than 1/3 
114 was 1/3 total pages - 3 pages 
114 = 1/3p - 3

The amount of time Jill spent to do her homework
= 9 1/2 hours. which equals to 570 minutes.

Which means, the amount of times Jack needed to do his is
= 570 minutes x 1.5
= 855 minutes which equals to 14 1/4 hours

hope this helps
