Answer:

Jamal needs to save $254.17 each month to cover his expenses.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that there are 12 months in a year, and Jamal already has $1,000 towards college. Jamal still needs to save $3,050 more dollars because: 4,050 - 1,000 = 3,050. Next, we take how much he has yet to pay ($3,050) divided by how many months in 1 year (12), and that gives us 254.17 per month.

Answer:

The equations represent the line that is parallel to 3x - 4y = 7 and pass through the point (-4,-2) are:

  • y+2=\frac{3}{4}\left(x+4\right)
  • 3x - 4y = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form of the line equation

y = mx+b

where

  • m is the slope
  • b is the y-intercept

Given the line

3x - 4y = 7

writing in the slope-intercept form

4y = 3x - 7

dividing both sides by 4

4y/4 = 3/4x - 7/4

y = 3/4x - 7/4

Now, comparing with the slope-intercept form of the line equation

y = 3/4x - 7/4

The slope of the line m = 3/4

We know that parallel lines have the same slopes.

Therefore, the slope of the parallel line is: 3/4

now we have,

The point (-4, -2)

The slope m of parallel line = 3/4

Given the point-slope form of the line equation

y-y_1=m\left(x-x_1\right)

where m is the slope of the line and (x₁, y₁) is the point

substituting (-4, -2) and m = 3/4 in the point-slope form of line equation

\:y-\left(-2\right)=\frac{3}{4}\left(x-\left(-4\right)\right)

y+2=\frac{3}{4}\left(x+4\right)

Thus, the equation in the point-slope form of the line equation is:

y+2=\frac{3}{4}\left(x+4\right)

Simplifying the equation

y+2=\frac{3}{4}\left(x+4\right)

Subtract 3 from both sides

y+2-2=\frac{3}{4}\left(x+4\right)-2

y=\frac{3}{4}x+1

Multiplying the equation by 4

4y = 3x + 4

3x - 4y = -4

Therefore, the equations represent the line that is parallel to 3x - 4y = 7 and pass through the point (-4,-2) are:

  • y+2=\frac{3}{4}\left(x+4\right)
  • 3x - 4y = -4

2. John and Jen went to the farmers market to buy fruit. John bought 3 boxes of oranges and 9 boxes of cherries for $78. Jen bou
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

Let the cost of orange be X and cost of cherry be y

3x + 9y = 78

8x + 4y = 58

Solving equation using elimination method

multiplying eq 1 with 8 and eq 2 with 3

8(3x + 9y ) = 78(8)

3( 8x + 4y) = 3(58)

24x + 72 y = 624

24x + 12y = 174

subtracting,

60 y = 450

y = 7.5

3x + 9(7.5) = 78

3x + 67.5 = 78

3x = 78 - 67.5

3x = 10.5

x = 3.5

<h2>Box of orange = $3.5 </h2><h2>Box of cherry = $7.5</h2>

Using the digits 1 to 9 at most one time each, fill in the boxes to find the largest (or smallest) possible values for x.
Mice21 [21]

Answer:

smallest: 8x -3 = 4; 1y +9 = 2. total = -49/8

 largest: 1x -9 = 8; 2y +3 = 7. total = 19

Step-by-step explanation:

If we use variables to represent the box contents, we can write ...

ax -b = c

dy +e = f

Then the values of x and y are ...

 x = (c +b)/a

 y = (f -e)/d

For positive integer values of the variables, x will always be positive, and y may or may not be negative.

Smallest sum

For the sum to be the smallest, we must have x be as small as possible and the ratio (f-e)/d be as negative as possible.

x will be small for large 'a' and for (c+b) small. For y to be as negative as possible, we want 'd' and 'f' small and 'e' large. Best results are obtained for

8x -3 = 4   ⇒   x = 7/8

1y +9 = 2   ⇒   y = -7

For these coefficients, the sum is -6 1/8 = -49/8.

(note that the values of 'b' and 'c' can be swapped with no net effect)

Largest sum

For the sum to be the largest, we must have x as large as possible: (b+c) large and 'a' small. At the same time we must have y be positive and as large as possible: (f-e) positive and large, 'd' small. Best results are obtained for

1x -9 = 8  ⇒   x = 17

2y +3 = 7   ⇒   y = 2

For these coefficients, the sum is 19. Again, 'b' and 'c' can be swapped with no effect.

_____

Additional comment

These extreme values are verified by examination of the 60,480 possible permutations of the coefficients.
