H=$hand towel, B=$bath towel.
27H+48B=540, 50H+24B=416, so 100H+48B=832;
100H+540-27H=832; 73H=832-540=292, H=292/73=$4.
48B=540-27×4=540-108=432, B=432/48=$9.
Hand towels are $4 each, and bath towels are $9 each.

Answer:

The cost of the hand towel is $4 and the cost of the bath towel is $9 .

Step-by-step explanation

Let us assume that the cost of one hand towel be x .

Let us assume that the cost of one bath towel be y .

As given

Mr. Miller owns two hotels and is ordering towels for the rooms.

He ordered 27 hand towels and 48 bath towels for a bill of $540 for the first hotel.

Equation become

Cost of one hand towels × Order of number of hand towels + Cost of one bath towels × Order of number of bath towels = Total cost

Put all the values in the above

27x + 48y = 540

As given

He ordered 50 hand towels and 24 bath towels for a bill of $416 for the other hotel.

Equation becomes

50x + 24y = 416

Multiply 27x + 48y = 540  by 50

we get

1350x + 2400y = 27000

Multiply 50x + 24y = 416 by 27

1350x + 648y = 11232

Subtracted 1350x + 648y = 11232  from 1350x + 2400y = 27000 .

1350x - 1350x + 2400y - 648y = 27000 - 11232

1752y = 15768

y = \frac{15768}{1752}

y = 9

Put this value in the equation 50x + 24y = 416 .

50x + 24 × 9 = 416

50x + 216 = 416

50x = 200

x = \frac{200}{50}

x = 4

Therefore the cost of the hand towel is $4 and the cost of the bath towel is $9 .

Honestly i just wanted to try this question since ive never seen it but i dont rlly know if i did it right at all

I equaled GH, HI, and GI together to get y

which i got y=-2

and what i got next i feel is off since

GH, HI, and GI all equaled -11

if you kind of know how to do the question maube you could correct me from there but otherwise dont take my word for it completely

Can anyone help me solve 23, 24?
zimovet [89]

Answer:

Problem 23) y=3x+6

Problem 24) y=-\frac{1}{3}x-5

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the slope of the given line

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}

we have

A(0,2)\ B(3,1)

Substitute the values

m=\frac{1-2}{3-0}

m=-\frac{1}{3}

step 2

Problem 23

we know that

If two lines are perpendicular then the product of its slopes is equal to minus 1

so

m1*m2=-1

Find the slope of the line

we have

m1=-\frac{1}{3}

substitute in the equation and solve for m2

(-\frac{1}{3})*m2=-1

m2=3

with the slope m2 and the point (0,6) find the equation of the line

Remember that

The equation of the line in slope intercept form is equal to

y=mx+b

we have

m=3

b=6 -----> the given point is the y-intercept

substitute

y=3x+6

step 3

Problem 24

we know that

If two lines are parallel, then its slopes are the same

so

with the slope m1 and the point (0,-5) find the equation of the line

The equation of the line in slope intercept form is equal to

y=mx+b

we have

m=-\frac{1}{3}

b=-5 -----> the given point is the y-intercept

substitute

y=-\frac{1}{3}x-5

What kind of question will ask us to use this type of format to evaluate the integral instead of doing the regular integral eval
ANEK [815]

Answer:

Great work!

Step-by-step explanation:

These kind of questions are calculated through Riemann Sum. You can evaluate any definite integral using the Riemann Sum. It should be in the following form:

f(x)dx on the interval [a, b], or

\int _a^b\:f\left(x\right)dx

Now f(x) is simply y. Therefore in this example y = x^3 - 6x. We just need the sufficient amount of data to apply the Riemann Sum, including the interval [a, b] that bounds the area, and the the number of rectangles 'n' that we need to use.
