If 2 sodas and 3 hot dogs are $17 while 5 sodas and 6 hot dogs are $38.75 - how much are each separately?

Mathematics

The cost of soda is $4.75 and the cost of hot dog is $2.5

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

<u>Let us assume :</u>

  • The cost of soda be 'x'.
  • The cost of hot dog be 'y'.

<u>Given that,</u>

The cost of 2 sodas and 3 hot dogs are $17.

⇒ 2x + 3y = 17  ------(1)

The cost of 5 sodas and 6 hot dogs are $38.75

⇒ 5x + 6y = 38.75  -------(2)

<u>Solving the equations to find x and y values :</u>

Multiply eq(1) by 2 and subtract eq(2) from eq(1),

 4x + 6y = 34

-(<u>5x + 6y = 38.75</u>)

 <u>-x         = -4.75 </u>

The value of x = 4.75

The cost of soda is $4.75

Substitute x=4.75 in eq(1),

2(4.75) + 3y = 17

3y = 17 - 9.5

3y = 7.5

y = 7.5/3

y = 2.5

The cost of hot dog is $2.5

X + 4 is prime x2 – 9 can be factored using the formula.
Anna71 [15]

We are given two binomials: x+4 , x^2-9.

x+4 can't be factored. Therefore,  it is a prime.

Let us work on x^2-9.

9 could be written as 3^2.

Therefore, x^2-9 = x^2 - 3^2.

Now, we can apply difference of the squares formula to factor it.

We know a^2 -b^2 = (a-b) (a+b).

Therefore,  x^2 - 3^2 can be factored as (x-3) (x+3).

So, x^2-9 is not a prime binomial because it can be factored as (x-3) (x+3).

*Translate into an algebraic expression: How much 50% sugar syrup can you make if you have x grams of sugar?
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

w = x/50% = x/50/100

Step-by-step explanation:

We would turn the above question into an algebraic expression using variables.

To make a sugar syrup, we need sugar and water to form the solution.

Amount of sugar = x gram

Let amount of water = w gram

Sugar syrup solution = 50%

Sugar syrup solution = (amount of sugar)/(amount of water) × 100

50% = x/w × 100%

50% = x/w

Making w subject formula

w = x/50%

w = x/50/100

If a wind turbine makes 76 full revolutions every 1 minute what is it’s angular speed?
Maslowich

Answer: 7.958 \frac{rad}{s}

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told the wind turbine makes 76 revolutions in 1 minute. This means the angular speed \omega of the object in revolutions per minute (rpm) is:

\omega=76 rpm=76 \frac{rev}{min} (1)

However, we have to convert this to \frac{rad}{s}, since this is the unit used in the International Systme of Units for angular speed.

So, we can do this knowing that:

\omega=\frac{2 \pi}{T}  (2)

Where:

2 \pi=360\° is the value of one revolution

T=1 min=60 s is the period of rotation

With this information in mind, let's make the conversion:

\omega=76 \frac{rev}{min}. \frac{1 min}{60 s}. \frac{2 \pi}{1 rev} (3)

\omega=7.958 \frac{rad}{s} (4) This is the wind turbine angular speed
