Members of a youth group held a bake sale to raise money for their summer trip. They sold 30 cakes, 40 pies, and 200 giant cooki

es, and raised a total of $684.50. The price for a pie was $2.00 less than the price of a cake. The price of a cake was 5 times as much as the price for a giant cookie. Find the price for each item at the bake sale

Answer: Cost of  a giant cookies = $1.39

Cost of a cake= $6.95

Cost of a pie= $4.95

Step-by-step explanation:

Let price of a giant cookie = x

Then,

price of a cake = 5x

Price of a pie = 5x-2

Cost of  30 cakes, 40 pies, and 200 giant cookies = 30 (5x)+40(5x-2)+200x

= 150x+200x-80+200x   [By distributive property a(b+c)=ab+ac]

= 550x-80

Given cost = $684.50

\Rightarrow\ 550x-80=684.50\\\\\Rightarrow\ 550x= 684.50+80

\Rightarrow\ 550x=764.50\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=\dfrac{764.50}{550}\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=1.39

Cost of  a giant cookies = $1.39

Cost of a cake = 5 x $1.39  = $6.95

Cost of a pie = $6.95 -  $2 = $4.95

Find the general solution of {y}''-3y=8e^{3t}+4sin(t) .
babunello [35]

Answer:

y(x)=C_1e^{\sqrt3t}+C_2e^{-\sqrt3t}-\frac{4}{3}e^{3t}-sint

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that linear differential equation

y''-3y=8e^{3t}+4 sint

Auxillary equation

D^2-3=0

D=\pm \sqrt3

C.F=C_1e^{\sqrt3t}+C_2e^{-\sqrt3}

P.I=\frac{8e^{3t}+4sin t}{D^2-3}

P.I=\frac{8e^{3t}}{9-3}+4\frac{sint }{-1-3}

P.I=e^{ax}{\phi (D+a)} and P.I=\frac{sinax}{(\phi D)}where D square is replace by - a square

P.I=-\frac{4}{3}e^{3t}- sint

Hence, the general solution

G.S=C.F+P.I

y(x)=C_1e^{\sqrt3t}+C_2e^{-\sqrt3t}-\frac{4}{3}e^{3t}-sint

7+3√5/3+√5 - 7-3√5/3-√5​
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

0

Step-by-step explanation:

We can write the equation in a simpler form so it doesn't look like a mess of numbers:

7+\frac{3\sqrt{5}}{3}+\sqrt{5} -7 -\frac{3\sqrt{5}}{3}-\sqrt{5}

Because we are just adding three terms together and then subtracting those exact terms, we have the answer as 0.
