3.25y=13. Isolate y by dividing both sides of the equation by 3.25. So 3.25y/3.25=13/3.25. Your answer is therefore 13/3.25, or 4

<h2>Answer:</h2>

The cost per yard of the fabric is:

$ 4 per yard

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

It is given that:

Anita bought 3 1/4 yards of fabric.

This means that the length of the fabric she bought is: 13/4 yards.

Also, the total cost of the fabric is: $ 13

This means that the cost of one yard of fabric is:

Total cost divided by the length of the fabric she bought.

i.e. cost of one yard of fabric is:

$=\dfrac{13}{\dfrac{13}{4}}\\\\\\=\$\ 4\ per\ yard$

6 children and 2 adults are going to the circus, children tickets are on sale, half the price of adult tickets totaling $54. How

inna [77]

Answer:

Price of 1 child ticket is $5.4

Price of 1 adult ticket is $10.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:-

6 children and 2 adults are going for circus.

Children ticket is half the price of adult ticket.

Total ticketing cost =$54

To find:-

Cost of 1 child ticket=?

Cost of 1 Adult ticket=?

Solution:-

Let price of 1 child ticket be x and price of 1 adult ticket be y,

therefore from the given data we get 2 equations,

$6x+2y=54$ -----------------------------------(1)

$x=\frac{1}{2} y$ --------------------------------(2)

Now, substituting the value of x from equation 2 in equation 1,

$6x+2y=54$

$6(\frac{1}{2} y)+2y=54$

$\frac{6}{2}y+2y=54$

$3y+2y=54$

$5y=54$

$\therefore y=\frac{54}{5}$

$\therefore y =10.8$ ------------------------(3)

Now, substituting the value of y from equation 3 in equation 2,

$x=\frac{1}{2} y$

$\therefore x=\frac{1}{2} \times 10.8$ ------------(from equation 3)

$\therefore x=\frac{10.8}{2}$

$\therefore x=5.4$ ----------------------(4)

As, x is price of 1 child ticket and y is price of 1 adult ticket,

Therefore price of 1 child ticket is $5.4 and price of 1 adult ticket is $10.8

How to graph y = 2|x + 3| - 4

mr_godi [17]

The x-intercepts and the y-intercepts of the function is that determines the graph is:

x-intercepts = (-5,0) and (-1,0)
y-intercepts = (0,2)

<h3>How do we graph the function y = f(x) of an absolute equation?</h3>

The function of an absolute equation can be graphed by determining the values of x-intercepts and the y-intercepts of the function.

From the given equation:

y = 2|x+3| - 4

To determine the y-intercepts, we need to set the values of x to zero, and vice versa for x-intercepts.

By doing so, the x-intercepts and the y-intercepts of the function is:

x-intercepts = (-5,0) and (-1,0)
y-intercepts = (0,2)

Therefore, since we know the x and y-intercepts, the graph of the absolute value can be seen as plotted below.

It takes you 45 minutes to clean the fish tank and it takes your sister 30 minutes. how long does it take the two of you working

katen-ka-za [31]

It takes you 45 minutes to clean the fish tank and it takes your sister 30 minutes. how long does it take the two of you working together to clean the fish tank

Answer:

My 1 minute work = $\frac{1}{45}$

My sisters 1 minute work = $\frac{1}{30}$

My and My sister's 1 minute work = $\frac{1}{45}+\frac{1}{30}$

= $\frac{5}{90}$

= $\frac{1}{18}$

$\therefore$ Me and My sister will finish the work in $\frac{18}{1} =18$ minutes
