Tyler went to the supermarket to buy food for a food pantry. He has $36, and can carry up to 20 pounds of food in his backpack.

Pasta costs $1 for a 1-pound package. Pasta sauce costs $3 for a 1.5 pound jar. Let x = the number of packages of pasta and y = the number of jars of pasta sauce. Identify each point as either a solution to the system or not a solution to the system of inequalities. (1, 12) (2, 10) (4, 5) (6, 10) (12, 8) (18, 6) .

Answer:

Solutions: (2,10), (4,5)

Not solutions: (1,12), (6,10), (12,8), (18,6)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of packages of pasta and y be the number of jars of pasta sauce. If pasta costs $1 for a 1-pound package, then x packages of pasta cost $x and weigh x pounds. If pasta sauce costs $3 for a 1.5 pound jar, then y jars cost $3y and weigh 1.5y pounds.

1. Tyler has $36, then

x+3y\le 36.

2. Tyler can carry up to 20 pounds of food in his backpack, then

x+1.5y\le 20.

You get the following system of inequalities:

\left\{\begin{array}{l}x+3y\le 36\\ x+1.5y\le 20\end{array}\right.

Now substitute the coordinates of each point:

<u>(1,12):</u>

\left\{\begin{array}{l}1+3\cdot 12=37> 36\\ 1+1.5\cdot 12=19\le 20\end{array}\right.

False, because first inequality doesn't hold.

<u>(2,10):</u>

\left\{\begin{array}{l}2+3\cdot 10=32\le 36\\ 2+1.5\cdot 10=17\le 20\end{array}\right.

True, both inequalities hold.

<u>(4,5):</u>

\left\{\begin{array}{l}4+3\cdot 5=19\le 36\\ 4+1.5\cdot 5=11.5\le 20\end{array}\right.

True, both inequalities hold.

<u>(6,10):</u>

\left\{\begin{array}{l}6+3\cdot 10=36\le 36\\ 6+1.5\cdot 10=21> 20\end{array}\right.

False, because secondt inequality doesn't hold.

<u>(12,8):</u>

\left\{\begin{array}{l}12+3\cdot 8=36\le 36\\ 12+1.5\cdot 8=24> 20\end{array}\right.

False, because second inequality doesn't hold.

<u>(18,6):</u>

\left\{\begin{array}{l}18+3\cdot 6=36\le 36\\ 18+1.5\cdot 6=27> 20\end{array}\right.

False, because second inequality doesn't hold.

Wren recorded an outside temperature of –2°F at 8 a.m. When she checked the temperature again, it was 4°F at 12:00 p.m. If x rep
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

<h2>1.5</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given two points. Let the points be A and B

A ( 8 , -2 ) ------> ( x1 , y1 )

B ( 12 , 4 ) ------> ( x2 , y2 )

Now, let's find the slope of the given points:

slope \:  =  \frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1}

plug the values

=  \frac{4 - ( -2)}{12 - 8}

When there is a ( - ) in front of an expression in parentheses , change the sign of each term in the expression

=  \frac{4 + 2}{12 - 8}

Subtract the numbers

=  \frac{4  + 2}{4}

Add the numbers

=  \frac{6}{4}

Reduce the fraction with 2

=  \frac{3}{2}

= 1.5

Hope this helps..

Best regards!!

A line passes through (-6,-1) and (3,2).What is the equation of the line?
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

y = (1/3)x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

You first find the slope:

(2 - (-1))/(3 - (-6)) =

3/9 =

1/3

This means the equation of the line is y = (1/3)x + b, where b is a real number.

Plug in either of the points to find the value of b:

-1 = (1/3)(-6) + b -->

-1 = -2 +b -->

1 = b

This means the equation is y = (1/3)x + 1

A baseball player has a batting average of 0.26. What is the probability that he has exactly 6 hits in his next 7 at bats
LenKa [72]

Answer:

0.0016

Step-by-step explanation:

Batting average, p = 0.26

n = 7

x = 6

With p = 0.26 as success rate

1-p is equal to failure rate which is = 0.74

We have to solve this by using the binomial distribution formula.

P(X= x)

= nCx * p^x * (1-p)^(n-x)

P(X = 6)

=7C6 × 0.26^6 ×(1-0.26)^(7-6)

= 7 × 0.0003089 × 0..74¹

= 0.0016

So probability that he has exactly 6 hits in his next 7 bats is equal to 0.0016.
