<u>Answer: </u>

Combine cost of 1 pound of turkey and 1 pound of ham is $10.5.    

<u>Solution: </u>

let’s assume cost of 1 pound of turkey in dollars = x

And assume cost of 1 pound of ham in dollars = y  

Given that 4 pounds of turkey and 2 pounds of ham costs $30.

Creating linear equation using above information we get

4x + 2y = 30    ------(1)

lets use second condition that is turkey cost $1.50 less per pound than ham to create other equation

=> cost of 1 pound of turkey  = cost of 1 pound of ham – 1.50  

=> x = y – 1.5  ------(2)

Now we have following two equations to proceed further

4x + 2y = 30     ------(1)

x = y – 1.5         ------(2)

Substituting value of x from eq (2) in eq(1) we get

4( y – 1.5 ) + 2y = 30  

=> 4y – 6 + 2y  = 30

=> 6y = 30 +6

=> y = 36/6 = 6

Substituting value of y in equation (2) to get value of x  

x = 6 – 1.5 = 4.5

Combine cost of 1 pound of turkey and 1 pound of ham = x + y      

= 4.5 + 6 = 10.5

Hence combine cost of 1 pound of turkey and 1 pound of ham is $10.5.

6. An ostrich cannot fly, but it is able to run fast. Suppose an ostrich runs east for 7.95 s and then runs 161 m south, so that
Liula [17]

Answer:

159 m

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information given:

It was stated that if the ostrich ran towards the east direction in 7.95 s, let say the distance from the starting point is O towards the east side E, let called the distance towards the east side to be OE.

Again, the ostrich then runs in the south direction for 161 m, let the distance be OS.

Also, let the magnitude of the resultant displacement between the east direction to the south direction be ES = 226m.

We are to find, the magnitude of the ostrich's eastward component.

i.e. The distance traveled from the center to the east direction within the time frame of 7.95 s.

Using the Pythagoras rule:

ES² = OE² + OS²

226² = OE² + 161²

226² -  161² = OE²

OE²  =  226² -  161²

OE²  = 51076 - 25921

OE²  =  51076 - 25921

OE²  =  25155

OE = \sqrt{25155}

OE =  158.60 m

OE ≅ 159 m

Thus, the magnitude of the ostrich's towards the eastward component. = 159 m.
