X= sandwiches
y= bottles of water

QUANTITY EQUATION
x+y= 200

COST EQUATION
$3x + $0.75y= $318.75

STEP 1
solve for one variable in quantity equation and substitute in cost equation

x+y= 200
subtract y from both sides
x= 200-y

STEP 2
substitute 200-y in for x

$3x + $0.75y= $318.75
3(200-y) + 0.75y= 318.75
600 - 3y + 0.75y= 318.75
combine like terms
600 - 2.25y= 318.75
-2.25y= -281.25
divide both sides by -2.25
y= 125 number of water bottles

STEP 3
substitute y=125 in either equation

x+y= 200
x + 125= 200
x= 75 sandwiches

ANSWER: There were 75 sandwiches and 125 bottles of water.

Hope this helps! :)

What is the coordinate of point P on the line segment AB that is 3/4 of the distance from A to B for A(2,5) and B(6,9)?
Brut [27]

Answer:

p  is (3.71, 6.71)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that p is at the distance of 3/4 from A to B

it mean that point p divides the line AB into 3:4 ratio.

and

if there are two points (x1,y1) and (x2,y22) which is divided by point p in the ratio m:n then

coordinates of point p (x,y) is given

p (x = (n*x1+m*x2)/m+n , y = (n*y1+m*y2)/m+n )

________________________________________________

Given the points AB

A(2,5)

B(6,9)

m:n = 3:4

thus,

p (x = (4*2+3*6)/7 , y = (4*5+3*9)/7 )

p (x = (4*2+3*6)/7 , y = (4*5+3*9)/7 )

p (x = (26/7 , y = 47/7 )

P ( x = 3.71, y = 6.71)

Thus, coordinates of point p  is (3.71, 6.71) which is  at  3/4 of the distance from A to B for A(2,5) and B(6,9)/

What is the peremeter of this tile 3in 3in 3in 3in I ready
Leokris [45]

Answer:

12 in.

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter is calculated by adding all up the sides of a shape.  In this case, the shape is a square, considering that all the sides are the same measurements.  3+3+3+3 can be simplified to 3x4.  This gives you 12 in. as the perimeter.

What kind of sequence is the pattern 1, 6, 7, 13, 20, ...?
AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

The given sequence 6, 7, 13, 20, ... is a recursive sequence

Step-by-step explanation:

As the given sequence is

6, 7, 13, 20, ...

  • It cannot be an arithmetic sequence as the common difference between two consecutive terms in not constant.

As

d = 7-6=1,  d = 13-7=6

As d is not same. Hence, it cannot be an arithmetic sequence.

  • It also cannot be a geometrical sequence and exponential sequence.

It cannot be geometric sequence as the common ratio between two consecutive terms in not constant.

As

r = 7-6=1,  r = 13-7=6

r = \frac{7}{6},  r = \frac{13}{7}

As r is not same, Hence, it cannot be a geometric sequence or exponential sequence. As exponential sequence and geometric sequence are basically the same thing.

So, if we carefully observe, we can determine that:

  • The given sequence 6, 7, 13, 20, ... is a recursive sequence.

Please have a close look that each term is being created by adding the preceding two terms.

For example, the sequence is generated by starting from 1.

     {\displaystyle F_{1}=1

and

     {\displaystyle F_{n}=F_{n-1}+F_{n-2}}

for n > 1.
