Answer:

Chocolate chip dough = $12

Gingerbread cookie dough = $17

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there are two variables in this problem, setting up a system of equations and using the elimination method will help us find the cost for each package of cookie dough.  Based on Ryan's sales of 6 packages of chocolate chip and 12 packages of gingerbread for $276, the first equation is:

6c + 12g = 276

Since Shawna sold 8 chocolate chip and 3 gingerbread for a total of $147.00, the second equation is:

8c + 3g = 147

Using the elimination method, we will need to multiply the second equation by a factor of -4 in order to eliminate the variable 'g':

-4(8c + 3g = 147) = -32c - 12g = -588

Add the two equations:

6c + 12g = 276

+ <u> -32c - 12g = -588</u>

-26c = -312  or c = $12

Plug the value of 'c' into the first equation:

6(12) + 12g = 276 or 72 + 12g = 276 or g = $17

Helene invested a total of $1,000 in two simple-interest bank accounts. One account paid 8% annual interest; the other paid 9% a
Lelu [443]

Answer: -600 and 1600 were invested into the two accounts.

Step-by-step explanation:

x = amount invested in the first account.

y = amount invested in the second account.

You start off with this equation

x + y = 1000

0.08x + 0.09y=86

Subtract both sides by y.

x=1000-y

Subsitude 1000 - x for x for the second equation.

0.08(1000-y)+0.09y=$86

Use the distributive property to solve for y.

80-0.08y+0.09y=86

80-0.01y=86

6=-0.01y

=-600

Subsitude -600 for y in the first equation and solve for x.

x-600=1000

x=1600

-600 and 1600 were invested into the two accounts.

URGENT PLEASE HELP WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST TO CORRECT ANSWER ABC factory brought a pile of coal. If the factory burns 1500 kilogram
wolverine [178]

Solving a system of equations, we will see that there are 6000 kg of coal on the pile.

<h3>How many kilograms of coal are in the pile of coal?</h3>

Let's say that there are N kilograms of coal, and it is planned to burn it totally in D days, these are our variables.

We know that:

  • If the factory burns 1500 kilograms per day, it will finish burning the coal one day ahead of planned.
  • If it burns 1000 kilograms per day, it will take an additional day than planned.

Then we can write the system of equations:

(1500)*(D - 1) = N

(1000)*(D + 1) = N

Because N is already isolated in both sides, we can write this as:

(1500)*(D - 1) = N = (1000)*(D + 1)

Then we can solve for D:

(1500)*(D - 1) =  (1000)*(D + 1)

1500*D - 1500 = 1000*D + 1000

500*D = 2500

D = 2500/500 = 5

Now that we know the value of D, we can find N by replacing it in one of the two equations:

(1500)*(D - 1) = N

(1500)*(5 - 1) = N

(1500)*4= N = 6000

This means that there are 6000 kilograms of coal on the pile.

Adding which of the following ordered pairs to the set [(0, 1), (2, 4), (3,5)) would make it not a function?
Kitty [74]

Answer:

(0,7)

Step-by-step explanation:

For a set of ordered pairs to be a function, there needs to be "ONE" value of y for each unique x value.

Thus, we see that the 3 ordered pairs given have x values of 0, 2, and 3.

Now, we look in the answer choices and find which ones are 0, 2, or 3 in x-coordinate.

That would be only (0,7). Now the original set has x = 0 corresponding to y = 1

Is that true for (0,7)?? NO!

x = 0 will now correspond to "TWO" values of y.

THis will make this NOT A FUNCTION.

So, (0,7) is correct.
