Answer:
a
Step-by-step explanation:
add and the take the parathesis out and there you have ur answer
Leap years have 366 days, and there are 8 pints per gallon. So we divide the 366 days by the 8 pints per 1 gallon. We end up getting:
45.75 gallons in 1 leap year.
Answer:
t=40
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of all angles in a triangle will always equal 180°. This means that:
(2t-42)+(4t-49)+(2t-49) = 180°
Let's solve this equation!
(2t-42)+(4t-49)+(2t-49) = 180
First we simplify what's on the left side:
2t-42+4t-49+2t-49 = 180
2t+4t+2t-42-49-49 = 180
8t-140 = 180
*Add 140 to both sides
8t = 180+140
8t = 320
Divide both sides by 8 to know what t means:
t = 320/8
t = 40
Answer:
(a) B
(b) $2
Step-by-step explanation:
(a) Let's say the cost of a ticket is t and the cost of popcorn is p. Then we can write the two equations from the table:
12t + 8p = 184
9t + 6p = 138
We need to solve this, so let's use elimination. Multiply the first equation by 3 and the second equation by 4:
3 * (12t + 8p = 184)
4 * (9t + 6p = 138)
We get:
36t + 24p = 552
36t + 24p = 552
Subtract the second from the first:
36t + 24p = 552
- 36t + 24p = 552
________________
0 = 0
Since we get down to 0 = 0, which is always true, we know that we cannot determine the cost of each ticket because there is more than one solution (infinitely many, actually). The answer is B.
(b) Our equation from this, if we still use t and p, is:
5t + 4p = 82
Now, just choose any of the two equations from above. Let's just pick 9t + 6p = 138. Now, we have the system:
5t + 4p = 82
9t + 6p = 138
To solve, let's use elimination again. Multiply the first equation by 6 and the second one by 4:
6 * (5t + 4p = 82)
4 * (9t + 6p = 138)
We get:
30t + 24p = 492
36t + 24p = 552
Subtract the second from the first:
36t + 24p = 552
- 30t + 24p = 492
________________
6t + 0p = 60
So, t = 60/6 = $10. Plug this back into any of the equations to solve for p:
5t + 4p = 82
5 * 10 + 4p = 82
50 + 4p = 82
4p = 32
p = 32/4 = $8
So the ticket costs 10 - 8 = $2 more dollars than the popcorn.
