Answer:

  • 45 regular keyboards
  • 15 wireless keyboards

Step-by-step explanation:

A set of 3 regular and 1 wireless keyboard would sell for ...

  3×$83 +110 = $359

For the given sales, the number of sets sold was ...

  $5385/($359/set) = 15 sets

Since there are 3 regular keyboards in each set, there were 3×15 = 45 regular keyboards sold. The number of each type of keyboards sold is ...

  45 regular keyboards and 15 wireless keyboards

<em>Comment on this solution</em>

When a problem statement tells you the ratio of one kind of item to another, it is often convenient to group the items in that ratio and deal with the groups. Sometimes, there will be a few missing or left over, for example "10 more than 3 times as many." In those cases, you can make an adjustment to the total and still deal with the groups. (Any equations you might write will effectively do this same thing.)

The change of displacement with respect to time is defined as speed. Velocity is a vector quantity. The instantaneous velocity at t = 2 is -12.

<h3>What is velocity?</h3>

The change of displacement with respect to time is defined as Velocity. velocity is a vector quantity. It is a time-based component. Its standard unit is m/sec.

Given that the position of an object at time t is given by s(t) = 1 - 12t. Therefore, the velocity of the object can be written as,

V = ds/dt

   = d(1 - 12t)/dt

   = -12

s'(t) = -12

Now, the instantaneous velocity at t=2 is,

s'(2) = -12

Hence, the instantaneous velocity at t = 2 is -12.

Is 0 an integer ?<br> It wont let me post without making it longer
lina2011 [118]

Yes, it is. You may prove it using something like this: 1 is an integer. 1-1 is a difference between integers. A difference between integers returns an integer, so 0 is an integer.
