Three people share half a pizza evenly. What fractional part of the original pizza does each one get?

Mathematics

Answer:

The fractional part of the original pizza is  \frac{1}{6}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x-----> the original pizza (complete pizza)

we know that

Half a pizza represent ------> \frac{x}{2}

Divide half a pizza by three people

(\frac{x}{2})/3=\frac{x}{6}

therefore

The fractional part of the original pizza is  \frac{1}{6}

1.
add them equations, the y's will cancel
x+2y=4
<span>3x-2y=4 +</span>
4x+0y=8

4x=8
divide by 4 both sides
x=2
sub back
x+2y=4
2+2y=4
minus 2
2y=2
divide 2
y=1
x=2
y=1
(x,y)
(2,1) is solution


2.
the solution is where they intersect
multiply 2nd equation by 2 and add to first
4x-14y=6
<span>-4x+14y=-6 +</span>
0x+0y=0
0=0
infinite solutions

that is because they are actually the same line
the solutions are (x,y) such that they satisfy -2x+7y=-3 or 4x-14y=6 (same equaiton)
infinite solutions



3.
multiply first equation by 2 and add to first
4x+2y=-6
<span>1x-2y=-4 +</span>
5x+0y=-10

5x=-10
divide by 5 both sides
x=-2
sub bac
x-2y=-4
-2-2y=-4
add 2
-2y=-2
divide by -2
y=1

x=-2
y=1
(x,y)
(-2,1)


4.
coincident means they are the same line
so

we see that we have to multiply 4 by 2 to get 8
multiply top equation by 2
8x+10y=16
8x+By=C
B=10 and C=16


5.
a. false, either 0, 1, or infinity solutions
change the word 'two' to 'one' or 'zero' or 'infinite', or change 'can' into 'can't'

b.false
 'sometimes' to 'always'

c. true

d. false, change 'sometimes' to 'always'


EC
total cost=150
TC=childC+adultC
TC=3c+5a
150=3c+5a


40 tickets, c+a
40=c+a

the equations are
150=3c+5a and
40=c+a

eliminate
multiply 2nd equaton by -3 and ad to first one

150=3c+5a
<span>-120=-3c-3a +</span>
30=0c+2a

30=2a
divide by 2
15=a

sub back
40=c+a
40=c+15
minus 15
25=c

25 children tickets and 15 adult tickets were sold


ANSWERS:

1.
(2,1) is solution

2.
infinite solutions

3.
(-2,1)

4.
B=10 and C=16

5.
a. false,
change the word 'two' to 'one' or 'zero' or 'infinite', or change 'can' into 'can't'

b.false
 'sometimes' to 'always'

c. true

d. false, change 'sometimes' to 'always'

A store marks up all of their merchandise by 70%. The floor price of a scarf is $117.25.
KiRa [710]

Answer:

  $68.97

Step-by-step explanation:

Markup is the difference between the cost of an item and the price at which it is sold:

  cost price + markup = selling price

Here, the markup is said to be 70%. The base for that percentage can be either the cost price or the selling price. The way this question is worded suggests the markup is 70% of the cost price.

So, we have ...

  cost price + 0.70 × cost price = selling price

or

  cost price × (1 + 0.70) = selling price

__

Then, to find the cost price, we can divide by its coefficient in this equation. Doing that gives ...

  cost price = (selling price)/1.70

  cost price = $117.25/1.70 = $68.97

The store's purchase price before the markup for this item was $68.97.
