It took 50 hours to produce 3 oz of honey.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Rate of production= 1.5% per hour

Initial amount of honey = 4 oz

Final amount of honey = 7 oz

Honey produced = 3 oz

Amount produced = (initial amount x rate x time) /100

3 = (4 x 1.5 x t) /100

300 = 6t

t = 300/6

t = 50 hours

It took 50 hours for the bees to produce 3 oz of honey.

In a rock-paper-scissors game, a winner gets 5 points and a loser gets 2 points. After a man played this game 20 times, his tota
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

The man wins 9 times and looses 11 times in the rock - paper-scissor game.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume that in the game:

Number of times  man wins the games = x times

Number of times  man loses the games = y times

Total number of attempts = 20

Points after winning = 5

Points after loosing = 2

Now, according to the question:

       x  + y =20

and 5 x + 2 y = 67

Now, from (1) y = 20-x,     put in (2)

5x + 2y = 67       ⇒           5x + 2(20 -x)  = 67

or, 5x -2x = 67 - 40

or, 3x = 27

⇒ x = 27/3 = 9

then y = 20 - x = 20 - 9 = 11

⇒ x = 9 and y = 11 is the solution of the given system.

Hence, the man wins 9 times and looses 11 times in the rock - paper-scissor game.

-2x-9y=-25 -4x-9y=-23 system with elimination
REY [17]
Multiply the first equation by -2. It turns into 4x+18y=50 and the other one stays -4x-9y=-23. Then you "eliminate" the equations by "adding" them. Set it up like this: 
4x+18y=50
      +
-4x-9y=-23
4x-4x= 0. 18y-9y= 9y and 50-23= 27
SO: 9y= 27 and y= 3
And then you plug that in to one equation: 4x +18(3)= 50. 4x= 50-(18*3)
4x= -4, so x=-1.
Plug it back in to check! 
Hope this helps. Happy solving! :)
