Kara has 21 collectible buttons to sell. She sells the small buttons for $3 and the large buttons for $4, and earns a total of $

68. If the small buttons are represented by x and the large buttons are represented by y which of the following systems of equations can be used to calculate the number of large and small buttons sold.Answersx+y=21,3x+4y=68x+y=68, 3x+4y=21x+y=21, 4x+3y=68x+y=68, 4x+3y=21

We know that there are 21 buttons total. x is the number of small buttons and y is the number of large buttons. 

Therefore, our first equation should be x+y = 21.

We know the small buttons sell for 3 dollars, meaning 3x represents how much is made from the small buttons. The larger buttons sell for 4 dollars, meaning 4y is how much is made from the large buttons. 

We also know that the total of the buttons sold is 68 dollars. Therefore 3x + 4y = 68 is our second equation.

From this information, the answer is the first set.

What is the rule of a function of the form f(t)= a sin (bt+c) +d whose graph appears to be identical to the given graph?
olasank [31]

Answer:

Option A.

f(x) = -4*sin((1/3)*t + (π/6))  + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

We can easily solve this problem by using a graphing calculator or plotting tool.

The function is

f(t) = a*sin (b*t +c) + d

Please, see attached picture below.

By looking at the picture with all the possible cases, we can tell that the correct option is A.

The function has a period of T = 6π

Max . Amplitude = 7

Min . Amplitude = -1

Joe bikes at the speed of 30 km/h from his home toward his work. If Joe's wife leaves home 5 mins later by car, how fast should
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

45 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a really good question to know the answer to. It is tricky and a bit indirect (which means you have to find something else before you can find the speed of the car.)

Let's keep track of what he does in the time allotted.

How far does Joe go in 5 minutes? That's the amount of time he's on the road before she is.

convert 5 minutes into hours. 5 minutes * 1 hour / 60 minutes = 1/12 of an hour

d = r*t

r = 30 km/hour

t = 1/12 hour

d = 30 km/hr * 1/12 hour = 2.5 km

Now she's about to start. She wants to catch him in 10 minutes

d = r*t

r = x mph

t = 10 minutes = 10 minutes * 1 hour * 60 minutes = 1/6 of an hour.

How far does he go in the 10 minute time?

d = 30 * 1/6 = 5 km

What is his total distance

5 km + 2.5 km = 7.5 km

Finally how fast does she need to go to catch him

d = 7.5 km

r = ?   This is what you are trying to find

t = 1/6 of an hour

d = r*t

7.5 km = r * (1/6)hour             divide by 1/6 hour

7.5 km // 1/6 hour = r

r = 7.5 * 6 = 45 mph
