nces of fruit punch per person and 2 ounces of cheese per person. Including herself, there are 12 people in the club. A package of cheese contains 16 ounces and costs $3.99. A one-gallon jug of fruit punch contains 128 ounces and costs $2.50. Let represent number of people in the club, represent the ounces of fruit punch, represent the ounces of cheese, and represent Priya's budget in dollars. Select all of the equations that could represent the quantities and constraints in this situation.

Answer:

i) Number of people in club = 12

ii) 96 ounces of fruit punch for 12people

iii) 24 ounces of cheese for 12 people

iv) Priya's budget for poetry club meeting in dollars = $7.87

Step-by-step explanation:

We are not given the options for the equations that could represent the quantities and constraints in this situation. We can tell we are to represent the information given above.

Number of people in the club = 12

8 ounces of fruit punch per person

For 12 people = 12×8 = 96 ounces of fruit punch

2 ounces of cheese per person

For 12 people = 12×2 = 24 ounces of cheese

A package of cheese = 16 ounces

The costs for 1package = $3.99

The costs for 16 ounces of cheese = $3.99

The cost for 24 ounces of cheese = (24×3.99)/16 = 5.985

The cost for 24 ounces of cheese = $5.99

One-gallon jug of fruit punch = 128 ounces

The cost of One-gallon jug of fruit punch = $2.50

The costs of 128 ounces of fruit punch = $2.50

The costs for 96 ounces of fruit punch = (96×2.5)/128 = 1.875

The costs for 96 ounces of fruit punch = $1.88

Priya's budget for poetry club meeting in dollars = $5.99 + $1.88 = $7.87

Cost per item for x number of people:

y = x(2.5/128) + x (3.99/16)

y = x(0.0195) + x(0.2494)

Cost equation for Priya's budget:

y = 96x(2.5/128) + 24x (3.99/16)

y = 96x(0.0195) + 24x(0.2494)

Since the total number of people to attend the meeting is 12, the constraint = 0≤x≤12

Find the x-intercept and y-intercept for 8x+4y=16
Valentin [98]

Answer:

y-intercept = 4

x-intercept = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

you can divide the equation through by 4 and change into the y=mx+c form to find c, the y intercept so the y-intercept = 4.

for the x intercept make the y=0 (because the coordinate point where the line crosses the x axis must have y=0) and then you get 8x=16 so x=2

Find the volume of a box that has a length of 7 cm, a width of 9 cm, and a height of<br> 11.2 cm.
astra-53 [7]
The answer is 705.6 cm^3.

Remember that volume of a box, rectangular prism, is: V = LWH.

So, V = 7(9)(11.2) = 705.6 cm^3

Find S10 for -1 + -7 + -13 + -19
Alex777 [14]
First we find the common difference...to do this we subtract the first term from the second term. -7 - (-1) = -7 + 1 = -6

now we are going to find the 10th term
an = a1 + (n-1)*d <== formula for finding any term in arithmetic series
a1 = 1st term, d = common difference, n = term we want to find
now we sub
a10 = -1 + (10 -1) * -6
a10 = -1 + (9 * -6)
a10 = -1 - 54 
a10 = - 55

now we will find the sum
Sn = (n (a1+ an)) / 2 <== formula for finding the sum 
S10 = (10(-1 - 55))/2
S10 = (10(-56) / 2
S10 = -560/2
S10 = - 280

so the sum of the first 10 numbers is -280
