Given:
8000 homes
color flyers : $0.08 each
black and white flyers : $0.05 each
budget of $500

c + b = 8,000
0.08c + 0.05b = 500

c = 8,000 - b
0.08(8,000 - b) + 0.05b = 500
640 - 0.08b + 0.05b = 500
-0.03b = 500 - 640
-0.03b = -140
b = -140 / -0.03
b = 4,667 black and white flyers

c = 8,000 - b
c = 8,000 - 4,667
c = 3,333 colored flyers

0.08(c) + 0.05(b) = 500
0.08(3,333) + 0.05(4,667) = 500
266.64 + 233.35 = 500
499.99 = 500
500 = 500

Solving equations with rational numbers
Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

P= 2

T=6

3) 252$

Step-by-step explanation:

1) set up your equation 3/8p=6/8 then divide 3/8 from both sides (remember when you divide fractions you would multiply by the reciprocal so 3/8 x 8/6. Also make sure you simplify)

2) Do the same here. 38/7 divided by 19/21

3) Turn the fraction into an improper fraction then multiply 126 by that amount (3/6)

Compare the modeld for one third and two sixths
DochEvi [55]

This is because 1/3 converted to 6ths you have to multiply 1/3 times 2 which equals 2/6
1/3 = 2/6

The blades of a windmill turn on an axis that is 35 feet above the ground. The blades are 10 feet long and complete two rotation
Alona [7]

Answer:

h = 10sin(π15t)+35

Step-by-step explanation:

The height of the blade as a function f time can be written in the following way:

h = Asin(xt) + B, where:

B represets the initial height of the blade above the ground.

A represents the amplitud of length of the blade.

x represents the period.

The initial height is 35 ft, therefore, B = 35ft.

The amplotud of lenth of the blade is 10ft, therefore A = 10.

The period is two rotations every minute, therefore the period should be 60/4 = 15. Then x = 15π

Finally the equation that can be used to model h is:

h = 10sin(π15t)+35
