Answer:

Part A: Let, the number of doughnuts = x and the number of carton milk = y.

Part B: We have, Mr. Flanders sold doughnut for $1.35 each and Mr. Rodriquez sold milk for $1.08 each.

As, they sold 85 items in total.

Thus, x + y = 85.

Moreover, they both earned $104.49 in total.

So, 1.35x + 1.08y = 104.49.

Hence, we get the system of equations,

1.35x + 1.08y = 104.49

x + y = 85.

Part C: Now, we will solve the system of equations,

As, x + y = 85 ⇒ y = 85 - x.

As, 1.35x + 1.08y = 104.49 ⇒ 1.35x + 1.08(85-x) = 104.49 ⇒ 1.35x + 91.8 - 1.08x = 104.49 ⇒ 0.27x = 12.69 ⇒ x = 47.

So, y = 85 - 47 ⇒ y = 38.

Thus, x = 47 and y = 38 is the solution.

Part D: Hence, we get that,

Number of doughnuts sold by Mr. Flanders is 47 and the number of carton milk sold by Mr. Rodriquez is 38.

You are considering the services of three different employment agencies, all of which can get you a job that starts at $2,000 a
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

Agency C offers the least expensive overall fee

Step-by-step explanation:

Alone from gross salary, you would make 24000 a year.

Agency A

24000 - ( 2000 x 0.5)

= 23,000

$1000 fee

Agency B

24000 - ( 2000 x 0.1 ) x 6

= 24000 - 200 x 6

= 24000 - 1200

= 22,800

$1200 fee

Agency C

24000 - (500 + 100)

= 24000 - 600

= 23,400

$600 fee

You invest $2,500 in an account that grows 5% each year. what will be your investment amount after 6 years?
lesantik [10]

Answer:  b. $3,374.65

Step-by-step explanation:

The exponential equation of growth (continuously) is given by :-

y=Ae^{rx}, where A is the initial amount, r is the rate of growth ( in decimal) and x is the time period.

Given : You invest $2,500 in an account that grows 5% each year.

i.e.  A= $2,500  and r= 5%=0.05

Then, the equation model this situation will be :-

y=2500e^{0.05x}=2500(1.05)^x

Now, At x= 6

y=2500e^{0.05\times6}\\\\\Rightarrow\ y=2500e^{0.3}=3374.64701894\approx3374.65

Hence, the investment amount after 6 years will be $3,374.65.

a gardener uses a tray of 6 conical pots to plant seeds. each conical pot has a radius of 3 centimeters and a depth of 8 centime
lubasha [3.4K]
The volume of a cone is one-third of the product of the area of the base times the height, i.e.

(1/3)π(r^2)*h = (1/3)π(3cm)^2 *(8cm) = 75.40 cm^3

Now multiply that by the number of cones: 6 * 75.40 cm^3 = 452.40 cm^3.

Then the answer is 452 cm^3
