Answer:

The number of the television sets that is model p is 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we have total number of television sold = 40

The model p televisions sold for $30 less than the model q televisions

That is $P = $q - $30

Therefore

Let the quantity of the model p sold be X

Let the quantity of the model q sold be X

Therefore

x + y = 40

Total cost of the television = 40 * 141 = $5640

Therefore, 120*x + 90*y = 5640

Plugging in x = 40 - y in the above equation we get

4800 - 30y = 5640 or

y   = -28 and

x = 68

If we put y = 40 - x we get

30x + 3600 = 5640  

If we put

120*x + 150*y = 5640.........(3)

we get

x = 12 and y = 28

Therefore, since the model p sold for $30 less than the model q, from the solution of equation (3) the number of the television sets that is model p = 12

Answer: 12 of the 40 televisions were model p televisions

Step-by-step explanation:

Revenue = price × quantity

Let x represent the number of the model p TV sold

The number of model q TV sold would be 40 - x

Revenue from model p TV sold is

px

Revenue from model q TV sold is

(40 - x)q

Total revenue = px + (40 - x)q

The formula for determining average price is expressed as

Average price = total revenue/total number of TV sold.

The average (arithmetic mean) selling price of the 40 televisions was $141. This means that

141 = (px + (40 - x)q)/40

141 × 40 = px + (40 - x)q

5640 = px + (40 - x)q

p = q - 30

5640 = x(q - 30) + (40 - x)q

5640 = xq - 30x + 40q - xq

5640 = - 30x + 40q

If q = 120, then

5640 = - 30x + 40 × 120

5640 = - 30x + 4800

5640 - 4800 = - 30x

840 = - 30x

x = 840/- 30 = - 28

since x cannot be negative, then q is not equal to 120

Again,

5640 = px + (40 - x)q

If q = 30 + p, then

5640 = px + (40 - x)(30 + p)

5640 = px + 1200 + 40p - 30x - px

5640 = 1200 + 40p - 30x

Therefore,

If p = 120, then

5640 = 1200 + 40 × 120 - 30x

5640 = 6000 - 30x

30x = 6000 - 5640

30x = 360

x = 360/30

x = 12

Quadrilateral DEFG has vertices D(−2,4) , E(4,7) , F(10,3) , and G(8,0) .
fredd [130]

A rotation 270° counterclockwise about the origin is the same as rotation 90° clockwise about the origin and has a rule:

(x,y)→(y,-x).

Then:

  • D(−2,4)→D'(4,2)
  • E(4,7)→E'(7,-4)
  • F(10,3)→F'(3,-10)
  • G(8,0)→G'(0,-8)

Answer: the coordinates of vertices of quadrilateral D′E′F′G′ are D'(4,2), E'(7,-4), F'(3,-10), G'(0,-8).

5. Carla babysits and tutors to make extra money. She babysits for $5 an hour and tutors for $10 an hour.
HACTEHA [7]

Carla can babysit for 5 hours and tutor for 7 hours or babysit for 8 hours and tutor for 5.5 hours

<h3>How to graph the inequality?</h3>

Let x represents hours babysitting and y represents hours tutoring

So, we have:

Earnings = Rate of babysitting * x + Rate of tutoring* y

This gives

Earnings = 5x + 10y

He wants to earn at least $95.

This means that:

5x + 10y ≥ 95

See attachment for the graph of the inequality

From the attached graph, two possible solutions are: (5, 7) and (8, 5.5)

This means that Carla can babysit for 5 hours and tutor for 7 hours or babysit for 8 hours and tutor for 5.5 hours

(NEED HELP ASAP) What is the value of S4 for
Alexandra [31]

Answer:

90

Step-by-step explanation:)

To obtain S_{4} , sum the first 4 terms, using n = 1 to n = 4

S_{4}

= 6(2)^{0} + 6(2)^{1} + 6(2)² + 6(3)³

= (6 × 1) + (6 × 2) + (6 × 4) + (6 × 8)

= 6 + 12 + 24 + 48

= 90
