Elle ordered some large pizzas and some medium pizzas for a party. In all, she ordered 18 pizzas. Large pizzas cost $14, and med

ium pizzas cost $10. In all, she spent $204. Determine if each equation is a part of the system of equations that can be used to find the number of each type of pizza that was ordered. The variable x represents the number of large pizzas, and y represents the number of medium pizzas.

L+m=18, l=18-m

14l+10m=204 using l found above in this we get:

14(18-m)+10m=204

252-14m+10m=204

252-4m=204

-4m=-48

m=12, since l=18-m

l=6

So Elle ordered 6 large and 12 medium pizzas.

an open rectangular cardboard box with a square base is to have a volume of 256cm^3. Find the dimensions of the box if the area
Anit [1.1K]
Let
x------> the length side of the square base of the box
y-------> the height of the box

we know that
volume of the box=b²*h
b=x
h=y
volume=256 cm³
so
256=x²*y------>y=256/x²-------->  equation 1

<span>The amount of material used is directly proportional to the surface area, so we will minimize the amount of material by minimizing the surface area.</span>

surface area of the cardboard=area of the base+perimeter of base*height
area of the base=x²
perimeter of the base=4*x
height=y
surface area=x²+4x*y-----> equation 2
substitute equation 1 in equation 2
SA=x²+4x*[256/x²]-----> SA=x²+1024/x

step 1 
find the first derivative of SA and equate to zero
2x+1024*(-1)/x²=0------> 2x=1024/x²----> x³=512--------> x=8 cm
y=256/x²------> y=256/8²-----> y=4 cm

the answer is
the length side of the square base of the box is 8 cm
the height of the box is 4 cm

86 is 45% of what number
Alik [6]
Hello there! We are talking about 86 being part of a number, so we are looking for the whole. To find the number we are looking for, we can write and solve a proportion. Set it up like this:

86/x = 45/100

86 is 45% of a number. We know the part, so now we are looking for the whole. 45% is part of 100%, so we put that part together. Cross multiply the digits. 100 * 86 is 8,600. 45 * x is 45x. That simplifies to 8,600 = 45x. Now, divide each side by 45 to isolate the x. 45x/45 cancels out. 8,600/45 is 191.1111111 or 191 1/9 in fraction form. There. x = 191 1/9 86 is 45% or 191 1/9

Note: Or, if you have to round to the nearest whole number, the answer is 191, or if you have to round to the nearest tenth, the answer is 191.1. It all depends on if the answer needs to be rounded or exact.

Keith bought 4 shirts for $36

so

using proportion

Find out would be the cost for 7 shirts

Let

x ----> the cost for 7 shirts

\frac{4}{36}\ \frac{shirts}{\$}=\frac{7}{x}\ \frac{shirts}{\$}\\\\x=36(7)/4\\\\x=\$63
