Answer:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

Let corn tortillas be represented by c, flour tortillas be represented by f and the total number of packages be t

such that

t = c + f     .... eq 1

ratio of c to t = 7 : 16 = 7/16

Therefore, t = 16,    c = 7

substitute the value of t in eq 1

16 =  7 + f

f = 16 - 7

f = 9

alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

  • One solution

Step-by-step explanation:

  • 7 + 3x - 12x = 3x + 1
  • 7 - 9x = 3x + 1
  • 3x + 9x = 7 - 1
  • 12x = 6
  • x = 6/12
  • x = 1/2

It has one solution

A fitted multiple regression equation is Y = 28 + 5X1 - 4X2 + 7X3 + 2X4. When X1 increases 2 units and X2 increases 2 units as w
ad-work [718]

Answer:

A. Increase by 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a  fitted multiple regression equation is

Y = 28 + 5X_1 -4X_2 + 7X_3 + 2X_4

This is a multiple regression line with dependent variable y and independent variables x1, x2, x3 and x4

The coefficients of independent variables represent the slope.

In other words the coefficients represent the rate of change of y when xi is changed by 1 unit.

Given that x3 and x4 remain unchanged and x1 increases by 2 and x2 by 2 units

Since slope of x1 is 5, we find for one unit change in x1 we can have 5 units change in y

i.e. for 2 units change in x1, we expect 10 units change in Y

Similarly for 2 units change in x2, we expect -2(4) units change in Y

Put together we have

10-8 =2 change in y

Since positive 2, there is an increase by 2

A. Increase by 2

Mr.jacobs budgeted $1,200 for tiles. His sketch of the floor requires him to use 38 white tile. each white tile cost $12. Write
Arturiano [62]
Given: 
Budget for tiles = 1,200
number of white tiles = 38
unit cost of white tiles = 12
budget for brown tiles = x

cost of white tiles = 38 x 12 = 456

The inequality would be:

Cost of brown tiles + cost of white tiles <u><</u> budget
x + 456 <u><</u> 1,200

solving the inequality:
x + 456  <u><</u> 1,200
<u>   - 456        -456</u>
x      <u><</u> 744

Mr. Jacobs can spend up to 744 for the brown tiles.
