Ahmed is taking orders for lunch. A slice

Wittaler [7]3 years ago

Answer:

  • x+y=7; 2.5x+3.5y=21.5
  • (x, y) = (3, 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Perhaps you want a system of equations and their solution.

You have defined the variables, so you just need to write the relationships.

  x + y = 7 . . . . we assume one order per person

  2.50x + 3.50y = 21.50 . . . . we assume Ahmed collected just enough

__

Multiplying the first equation by 2.5 and subtracting that from the second equation, we get ...

  (2.50x +3.50y) -2.5(x +y) = (21.50) -2.5(7)

  y = 4

  x = 7 -4 = 3

There were 3 pizza orders and 4 sandwich orders.

The air pressure inside Jason’s bike tires decreases by about 6% each week. The original pressure was 45 pounds per square inch
Brrunno [24]
Compound percentage reduction can be calculated by multiplying the initial number by (1-x)^t where x is the percentage reduction (/100, i.e. 1% reduction is 0.01), and t is the number of times it has reduced.

So:
a) p=45(1-0.06)^t=45*0.94^t
Where t is the number of weeks.

We can then just substitute in to work out the final pressure:
b) p = 45*0.94^6 = 31psi
