How much does one case cost

Mathematics
1 answer:
nadya68 [22]3 years ago
7 0

So for this we will be using a system of equations, with one equation representing Shakira's sales and the other representing Jeff's sales. Our equations are such (Let x = oranges and y = grapefruit)

5x+8y=235\\ 3x+2y=85

For this, I will be using the elimination method. So firstly, multiply both sides of the second equation by -4: -12x-8y=-340

Next, add 5x+8y=235 and -12x-8y=-340 to get -7x = -105 . From here we can solve for x.

For this, just divide both sides by -7, and your answer is going to be x = 15.

Now that we know what x is, just substitute x for 15 in either equation to solve for y. For this I will be using the second equation.

3(15)+2y=85\\ 45+2y=85\\ 2y=40\\ y=20

Since we know that oranges cost $15 and grapefruit cost $20, just add them together to get your answer, which is $35.

Give the values of n and ell for an electron in a 4d orbital. n = ell = 16 select the values of mell and ms that are possible fo
Anestetic [448]
There are four quantum numbers: n, l, ml and ms. When the orbital is 4d, the 4 is corresponding to n. Thus, n=4. Then, the d corresponds to l = 2. Now, to find the value for ml, take the values of -l to +l. Therefore,

<em>ml = -2, -1, 0, 1, 2</em>

<em>Then,ms could only be either +1 or -1.</em>

Dilate the given points distance from the origin (x,y) (0.8x, 0.8y) . The point (-10,-20) becomes &amp; point (15,25) become
dalvyx [7]

Answer: The point (-10,-20) becomes (-8,-16) & point (15,25) becomes (12,20).

Step-by-step explanation:

When a point (x,y) is dilated by a scale factor k from the origin, then the new points become

(kx,ky).

The given rule of dilation : (x,y) →(0.8x, 0.8y)

The first point is (-10,-20), so its image will be

(-10,-20)\to (0.8\times-10,0.8\times-20)=(-8,-16)

So, the point (-10,-20)  becomes (-8,-16).

The second point is (15,25), so its image will be

(15,25)\to (0.8\times15,0.8\times25)=(12,20)

So, the point (15,25) becomes (12,20).

Hence, the point (-10,-20) becomes (-8,-16) & point (15,25) becomes (12,20).
