Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let b = bagels , d = donuts

Rasha bought 4 plain bagels and 2 chocolate donuts for a total of $8.70

We can write this as :

4b + 2d = 8.70

Scott bought 3 chocolate donuts for $2.55

3d = 2.55

First, let's find out the cost of 1 donut.

To do this, divide 2.55 by 3.

1d = 2.55/3 =0.85 (1 donut costs $0.85)

Substitute the value of d ( d = 0.85 ) into the equation 4b + 2d = 8.70

4b + 2d = 8.70

4b + 2 (0.85) = 8.70

4b + 1.7 = 8.70

Subtract 1.7 from both sides.

4b = 8.70 - 1.7

4b = 7

Divide both sides by 4 to find how much one bagel costs.

b = 7/4 = 1.75

Therefore, one bagel costs $1.75

exercise alone. Two methods of collecting data have been proposed. Method I: Recruit volunteers who are willing to participate.

aniked [119]

Answer:

I) If method I is used, population of generalization will include all those people who may have varying exercising habits or routines. They may or may not have a regular excersing habit. In his case sample is taken from a more diverse population

II) Population of generalization will include people who will have similar excersing routines and habits if method II is used since sample is choosen from a specific population

Step-by-step explanation:

past excercising habits may affect the change in intensity to a targeted excersise in different manner. So in method I a greater diversity is included and result of excersing with or without a trainer will account for greater number of variables than method II.

A ship leaves port and travels due west for 30 knots, then changes course to S 30° W and travels 50 more knots. Find the bearing

leva [86]

Answer:

232°

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a couple of ways to find the desired direction. Perhaps the most straightforward is to add up the coordinates of the travel vectors.

30∠270° +50∠210° = 30(cos(270°), sin(270°)) +50(cos(210°), sin(210°))

= (0, -30) +(-43.301, -25) = (-43.301, -55)

Then the angle from port is ...

arctan(-55/-43.301) ≈ 231.79° . . . . . . . 3rd quadrant angle

The bearing of the ship from port is about 232°.

<em>Comment on the problem statement</em>

The term "knot" is conventionally used to indicate a measure of speed (nautical mile per hour), not distance. It is derived from the use of a knotted rope to estimate speed. Knots on the rope were typically 47 ft 3 inches apart. As a measure of distance 30 knots is about 1417.5 feet.

write the correct Equation and Solve. Use x for the variable. The difference of four times a number and seven is thirteen

Verizon [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x

4times a number =4x

The difference of four times a number and seven : 4x - 7

4x - 7 = 13

4x = 13 + 7

4x = 20

x = 20/4

x = 5
