luis spent 8.75 on snacks at a basketball game. candy costs 1.25$ per package and chips cost .50$. Luis bought 10 snacks how man

ale4655 [162]

Answer:

Luis bought 5 packages of candy and 5 bags of chips

Step-by-step explanation:

1.25 for candy

0.50 for chips

1.25c + 0.50c = 8.75

First I tried to see how many times I could multiply 1.25, the answer that made the most sense was 5 because not only is 5 + 5 = 10, but when it equals the amount of money. So I changed my equation:

1.25(5) + 0.5(5)

6.25 + 2.5 = 8.75

At 8:00 am, here's what we know about two airplanes: Airplane #1 has an elevation of 80870 ft and is decreasing at the rate of 4

wel

Let's begin by listing out the information given to us:

8 am

airplane #1: x = 80870 ft, v = -450 ft/ min

airplane #2: x = 5000 ft, v = 900ft/min

We must note that the airplanes are moving at a constant speed. The equation for the airplanes is given by:

$\begin{gathered} E=x_1+vt----1 \\ E=x_2+vt----2 \\ where\colon E=elevation,ft;x=InitialElevation,ft; \\ v=velocity,ft\text{/}min;t=time,min \\ x_1=80,870ft,v=-450ft\text{/}min \\ E=80870-450t----1 \\ x_2=5,000ft,v=900ft\text{/}min \\ E=5000+900t----2 \end{gathered}$

We equate equations 1 & 2 to get the time both airlanes will be at the same elevation. We have:

$\begin{gathered} 5000+900t=80870-450t \\ \text{Add 450t to both sides, we have:} \\ 900t+450t+5000=80870-450t+450t \\ 1350t+5000=80870 \\ \text{Subtract 5000 from both sides, we have:} \\ 1350t+5000-5000=80870-5000 \\ 1350t=75870 \\ \text{Divide both sides by 1350, we have:} \\ \frac{1350t}{1350}=\frac{75870}{1350} \\ t=56.2min \\ \\ \text{After }56.2\text{ minutes, both airplanes will be at the same elevation} \end{gathered}$

The elevation at that time (when the elevations of the two airplanes are the same) is given by substituting the value of time into equations 1 & 2. We have:

$\begin{gathered} E_1=80870-450t \\ E_1=80870-450(56.2) \\ E_1=80870-25290 \\ E_1=55580ft \\ \\ E_2=5000+900t \\ E_2=5000+900(56.2) \\ E_2=5000+50580 \\ E_2=55580ft \\ \\ \therefore E_1\equiv E_2=55580ft \end{gathered}$
