Let the number of packages of hot dogs be D, and the number of packages of hamburgers be H. We can set up the equations:
1.60D + 5H = 23
D + H = 8 ---> which we can subtract D on both sides and get: H = 8 - D
1.6D + 40 - 5D = 23, -3.4D = -17, D = 5. The number of packages of hot dogs we buy are 5.
Now, we plug that into D + H = 8, and get 5 + H = 8. Subtracting by 5 on both sides of the equation, we get H = 3. So the number of packages of hamburgers we buy are 3.

Find the inverse f(x)=x+5/3x-1<br><br> f^-1(x)=
Kipish [7]

Answer:

  • f^-1(x) = (3/8)(x +1) . . . . as written
  • f^-1(x) = (x +5)/(3x -1) . . . with appropriate parentheses

Step-by-step explanation:

The inverse function can be found by solving for y:

  x = f(y)

  x = y + 5/3y -1 . . . . . . . . . . y +(5/3)y -1 . . . per order of operations

  x+1 = 8/3y . . . . . . . . . . add 1

  (3/8)(x +1) = y . . . . . . . . multiply by 3/8

  f^-1(x) = (3/8)(x +1) . . . . . inverse of the function as written

_____

Perhaps you intend f(x) = (x+5)/(3x-1). The inverse is found the same way.

  x = (y +5)/(3y -1)

  x(3y -1) = y +5

  3xy -x = y +5 . . . . . eliminate parentheses

  3xy -y = x + 5 . . . . . add x-y

  y(3x -1) = x +5 . . . . . factor out y

  y = (x +5)/(3x -1) . . . divide by the coefficient of y

  f^-1(x) = (x +5)/(3x -1) . . . . inverse of rational function

Compare the line passing through the points (–2, –9) and (4, 6) to the line given by the equation y = 25x – 4.
elena-s [515]

Answer:

D. They have the same y-intercep

Step-by-step explanation:

Before the comparison will be efficient, let's determine the equation of the two points and the x intercept .

(–2, –9) and (4, 6)

Gradient= (6--9)/(4--2)

Gradient= (6+9)/(4+2)

Gradient= 15/6

Gradient= 5/2

Choosing (–2, –9)

The equation of the line

(Y+9)= 5/2(x+2)

2(y+9)= 5(x+2)

2y +18 = 5x +10

2y =5x -8

Y= 5/2x -4

Choosing (4, 6)

The equation of line

(Y-6)= 5/2(x-4)

2(y-6) = 5(x-4)

2y -12 = 5x -20

2y = 5x-8

Y= 5/2x -4

From the above solution it's clear that the only thing the both equation have in common to the given equation is -4 which is the y intercept

A bag contains y fruits. A box can hold 4 times as many fruits as the bag.
sashaice [31]
Y = 8

A bag contains 8 fruits.
A box can hold 4 TIMES as many fruits.
So, 4•8= 32

32 fruits.
