A personal trainer designs exercise plans based on a combination of strength-training and aerobic exercise. A beginner plan has

15 minutes per session of strength-training and 20 minutes per session of aerobic exercise for a total of 90 minutes of exercise in a week. An advanced plan has 20 minutes per session of strength-training and 30 minutes of aerobic exercise for a total of 130 minutes of exercise in a week. Which statement describes when the plans are based on the same number of aerobic exercise sessions? Each plan utilizes a combination of 2 strength-training sessions and 2 aerobic exercise sessions per week. Each plan utilizes a combination of 2 strength-training sessions and 3 aerobic exercise sessions per week. Each plan utilizes a combination of 3 strength-training sessions and 2 aerobic exercise sessions per week. Each plan utilizes a combination of 3 strength-training sessions and 3 aerobic exercise sessions per week.

Answer:

Each plan utilizes a combination of 2 strength-training sessions and 3 aerobic exercise sessions per week.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of strength-training sessions and y represent the number of aerobic sessions per week.

For the beginner plan, we have

15x+20y = 90.  This is because 15 minutes of strength training (x) and 20 minutes of aerobic exercise (y) gives 90 minutes of exercise.

For the advanced plan, we have

20x+30y = 130.  This is because 20 minutes of strength training (x) and 30 minutes of aerobic exercise (y) gives 130 minutes of exercise.

This gives us the system

\left \{ {{15x+20y=90} \atop {20x+30y=130}} \right.

To solve this, we will make the coefficients of y the same.  To do this, we multiply the top equation by 3 and the bottom equation by 2:

\left \{ {{3(15x+20y=90)} \atop {2(20x+30y=130)}} \right. \\\\\left \{ {{45x+60y=270} \atop {40x+60y=260}} \right.

Now to eliminate the y terms, we subtract the second equation from the first:

\left \{ {{45x+60y=270} \atop {-(40x+60y=260)}} \right. \\\\5x=10

Divide both sides by 5:

5x/5 = 10/5

x = 2

Substitute this in the first equation:

15(2)+20y=90

30+20y = 90

Subtract 30 from each side:

30+20y-30 = 90-30

20y = 60

Divide both sides by 20:

20y/20 = 60/20

y = 3

Each plan uses 2 strength training sessions (x) and 3 aerobic sessions (y) each week.

Radio Barn : 200 + .15 x  x = the weekly sales

Woofer: 300 + .10x

set them equal to find when they are them same

200 + .15x = 300 + .10x

subtract .10x from both sides

200 +.15x -.10x = 300 + .10x-.10x

200 +.05x = 300

subtract 200 from each side

200+.05x -200 = 300-200

.05x = 100

divide each side by .05

.05x/.05 = 100/.05

x =2000

The 2 jobs pay the same when the weekly sales are 2000 dollars


2.  {x - 5 = -y}

{2y - 10 = -2x}

x-5 = -y

add 5 to each side

x = -y+5

multiply each side by -2

-2x = 2y -10

the 2 equations are the same, it has an infinite number of solutions

The system is dependent  since the 2 equations are the same line


3.  {2x = y - 7}

{4x - 2y - 14 = 0}

2x = y-7

subtract y-7 from each side

2x - (y-7) = 0

2x -y+7 =0

multiply by 2

4x -2y +14 =0

subtract the two equations

4x -2y +14 =0

4x - 2y - 14 = 0

---------------------------

               28 = 0

since this cannot happen   the lines will never cross ( parallel lines)

the system is inconsistent

The manufacturer of a weight-training bench spends $15 to build each bench and sells them for $32. The manufacturer also has fix
nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

C(x) = 15x + 25,500....cost function

R(x) = 32x .....revenue function

break even point (when they are equal)....so set them equal and solve for x

15x + 25,500 = 32x

25,500 = 32x - 15x

25,500 = 17x

25,500 / 17 = x

1500 = x.......so the break even point is when 1500 benches are sold

15x + 25,500 =                                   32x =

15(1500) + 25,500                              32(1500) =

22,500 + 25,500                                48,000

48,000

and after selling 1500 benches, they will both equal $48,000

x=96


all interior angles equal 180


Subtract exterior andgles by 180 to get interior angles because they are supplementary

180-134=46

180-130=50


Get the third angle inside the triangle

180-50-46=84


subtract by 180 to get x because they are supplementary

180-84=96


Therefore x =96
