Answer:the price for one shirt is $20

the price for one pair of pants is $12

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete. The complete question is

A shopper purchased 8 t shirts and 5 pairs of pants for $220. The next day he purchased 5 t shirts and 1 pair of pants for $112. How much does a t shirt and each pair of pants cost.

The solution is

Let x represent the price for one t shirt.

Let y represent the price for one pair of pants.

A shopper purchased 8 t shirts and 5 pairs of pants for $220. This means that

8x + 5y = 220 - - - - - - - - - -1

The next day he purchased 5 t shirts and 1 pair of pants for $112. This means that

5x + y = 112 - - - - - - - - - - - 2

Multiplying equation 1 by 5 and equation 2 by 8, it becomes

40x + 25y = 1100

40x + 8y = 896

Subtracting, it becomes

17y = 204

y = 204/ 17 = 12

Substituting y = 12 into equation 2, it becomes

5x + 12 = 112

5x = 112 - 12 = 100

x = 100/5 = 20

Graph each absolute value function. State the domain, range, and y-intercept.
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

i)D:x\in R

ii)R: y\ge-3

iii) Y-int:(0,-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

i) The given absolute value function is;

f(x)=|x+2|-3.

The absolute value function is defined for all real values of x.

The domain is all real numbers.

ii) The range is all y-values that will make x defined.

The given function,

f(x)=|x+2|-3.

has vertex at, (-2,-3) and opens upwards.

This implies that, the minimum y-value is -3.

The range is y\ge-3

iii) To find the y-intercept substitute x=0 in to the function.

f(0)=|0+2|-3.

f(0)=|2|-3.

f(0)=2-3.

f(0)=-1.

The y-intercept is (0,-1)

Answer: 38 Bags

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there are 19 people and each person needs 24 beads, the total number of beads needed is 19*24=456. Then if this total must be split up into groups of 12 beads, the answer would be 456/12=38.

In 1998 the U.S. Hispanic high school dropout rate was 29.5% and in 2008 it had dropped to 18.3%.
Bogdan [553]
A. The drop-out rate can be estimated using the equation,

    d = my + b

where d is the drop-out rate, m is the slope of the line, y is the number of years from 1998 and b be the initial value. For 2008,

    18.3 = m(2008 - 1998) + 38.46

The value of m from the equation is -1.12. The equation becomes,

     d = -1.12y + 38.46

b. The vertical intercept of the model is when d is equal to zero.

    0 = -1.12y + 38.46

The value of y from the equation is 34.34.
   (34.34, 0)

c. n = 1990 + 34.34 = 2024.34. 

The vertical intercept of this problem tells me that by the year 2024, the drop-out rate would be 0%.
