Answer:

A)

x + y = 14

1.5x + 2.5y = 24

B) (11,3)

Step-by-step explanation:

x + y = 14

1.5x + 2.5y = 24

x = 14 - y

1.5(14 - y) + 2.5y = 24

21 - 1.5y + 2.5y = 24

y = 3

x = 14 - 3

x = 11

Answer:

(11, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say that the ounces of seeds is x and the ounces of dried fruit is y. Since Otis and Rhonda need 14 ounces total: x + y = 14.

Each ounce of seeds is 1.50 and each ounce of dried fruit is 2.50. In total, they will add up to 24, so: 1.50x + 2.50y = 24

<u>Part 1</u>

The system is:

x + y = 14

1.50x + 2.50y = 24

<u>Part 2</u>

To solve, we can use substitution. First, subtract x from both sides of the first equation: x + y - x = 14 - x  ⇒  y = 14 - x

Now, we can substitute this in for y in the second equation:

1.50x + 2.50 * (14 - x) = 24

1.50x + 35 - 2.50x = 24

-x + 35 = 24

x = 11

Plug 11 into the equation x + y = 14 to solve for y:

11 + y = 14  ⇒  y = 3

Thus, the answer is (11, 3).

Hope this helps!

Some kids are selling lemonade for $1.50 per cup at a high
BaLLatris [955]

A function that would represent profit based on the number of cups of lemonade is Profit = 1.5n - 14

<u>Solution:</u>

Given, Some kids are selling lemonade for $1.50 per cup at a high school baseball game.  

They spent $14 on all of the items needed for the lemonade stand (cups, lemonade, table oth, sign, etc)

We have to create a function that would represent profit based on the number of cups of lemonade

Now, let the number of cups sold be "n"

Then , we know that,<em> profit = selling price – cost price  </em>

Profit = number of cups sold x price per cup – cost price

Profit = n x $ 1.5 – $ 14  

Profit = 1.5n – 14

Hence, the function is Profit = 1.5n - 14

Find the value of x:
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

These angles are vertical angles. Vertical angles equals to on another but on the opposite side. Since they equal to another you do:

(10x + 1) = (12x - 5)

Add 5 on both sides:

10x + 6 = 12x

Subtract 10x on both sides:

6 = 2x

Divide 2 on both sides:

3 = x

Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

3213 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

First draw the frame around the triangle. The circular edges added together give you 360 degrees. Use pi*r^2 to get 4pi which is around 12.56. 100cm=m. 2*500+2*400*2*700=3200.

3200+ 13 = 3213
