Question:

A grocery store has 120 bottles of spring water in stock. The store orders bottles of spring water in cases of 24. The store wants to order enough cases of spring water so it has more than 500 bottles in stock. Which inequality best models this situation?

A. 24x + 120 > 500

B. 24x - 120 > 500

C. 24x + 500 > 120

D. 24(x+120) > 500

Answer:

Option A. 24x + 120 > 500 is the inequality that best models this situation.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Number of bottles of spring water in the stock = 120

Each case of the spring water bottles contains 24 bottles

The store wants to order enough cases of spring water so that it has over 500 bottles in stock.

So there are already 120 bottles in stock .

The store will order

24x +120 > 500

where x is the number of spring water bottle cases

At a particular restaurant each mozzarella stick has 90 cal in each pizza roll has 80 cal. A combination meal with the mozzarell

serious [3.7K]

Answer:

The meal consist 11 mozzarella sticks and 6 pizza rolls.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Calories in mozzarella stick = 90

Calories in pizza roll = 80

Let x be the number of a mozzarella stick and y be the number of pizza rolls.

Total calories in meal = 1470

Thus, we can write the equation:

$90x + 80y = 1470$

There are five more mozzarella sticks than pizza roll.

Thus, we can write the equation:

$x = y + 5\\x-y = 5$

Solving the two equations, we get,

$90x+80y+80x-80y = 1470 + 400\\170x = 1870\\x = 11\\y = 11-5 = 6$

Thus, the meal consist 11 mozzarella sticks and 6 pizza rolls.

Given f(x)=x^3+5x+k, and x+2 is a factor of f(x), then what is the value of k?

Marat540 [252]

3x^3+0x^2-2x+k:x-2=3x^2+6x+10
3x^2-6x^2
6x^2-2x
6x^2-12x
10x+k
10x-20
k+20
Thus k=-20

one fabric costs $15.00 for two yards. Another costs $37.50 for 5 yards. Do these fabrics have the same unit cost? explain

kondaur [170]

Yes they do becuase
$15 divided by 2 equals $7.50
Then you do 5 times $7.50 and your anwser is $37.50
They total unit cost for each is $7.50

Evaluate the difference quotient for the given function.

kherson [118]

Assuming you mean f(t) = g(t) × h(t), notice that

f(t) = g(t) × h(t) = cos(t) sin(t) = 1/2 sin(2t)

Then the difference quotient of f is

$\dfrac{\frac12 \sin(2(t+h)) - \frac12 \sin(2t)}h = \dfrac{\sin(2t+2h) - \sin(2t)}{2h}$

Recall the angle sum identity for sine:

sin(x + y) = sin(x) cos(y) + cos(x) sin(y)

Then we can write the difference quotient as

$\dfrac{\sin(2t)\cos(2h) + \cos(2t)\sin(2h) - \sin(2t)}{2h}$

$\boxed{\sin(2t)\dfrac{\cos(2h)-1}{2h} + \cos(2t)\dfrac{\sin(2h)}{2h}}$

(As a bonus, notice that as h approaches 0, we have (cos(2h) - 1)/(2h) → 0 and sin(2h)/(2h) → 1, so we recover the derivative of f(t) as cos(2t).)
