A baker buys 19 apples of two different varieties to make pies. The total cost of the apples is $5.10. Granny Smith apples cost

Natasha2012 [34]

The baker bought 7 gala apples, and 12 granny smiths apples

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Let "x" be the number of gala apples bought

Let "y" be the number of granny smith apples bought

Cost of 1 gala apple = $ 0.30

Cost of 1 granny smith apple = $ 0.25

<em><u>A baker buys 19 apples of two different varieties to make pies</u></em>

Therefore,

number of gala apples bought + number of granny smith apples bought = 19

x + y = 19 --------- eqn 1

<em><u>The total cost of the apples is $5.10</u></em>

Therefore, we can frame a equation as:

number of gala apples bought x Cost of 1 gala apple + number of granny smith apples bought x Cost of 1 granny smith apple = 5.10

$x \times 0.30 + y \times 0.25 = 5.10$

0.3x + 0.25y = 5.1 -------- eqn 2

<em><u>Let us solve eqn 1 and eqn 2</u></em>

From eqn 1,

x = 19 - y ---------- eqn 3

<em><u>Substitute eqn 3 in eqn 2</u></em>

0.3(19 - y) + 0.25y = 5.1

5.7 - 0.3y + 0.25y = 5.1

5.7 - 0.05y = 5.1

0.05y = 5.7 - 5.1

0.05y = 0.6

y = 12

<em><u>Substitute y = 12 in eqn 3</u></em>

x = 19 - 12

x = 7

Thus the baker bought 7 gala apples, and 12 granny smiths apples

Answer:

840

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$DJs = 7$

$To\ pick = 4$

Required

Determine the number of rankings

The term "ranking" as used in this question implies permutation and the required is calculated using:

$^nP_r = \frac{n!}{(n-r)!}$

Where

$n = 7$

$r = 4$

So:

$^nP_r = \frac{n!}{(n-r)!}$

$^7P_4 = \frac{7!}{(7-4)!}$

$^7P_4 = \frac{7!}{3!}$

$^7P_4 = \frac{7 * 6 * 5 * 4 * 3!}{3!}$

$^7P_4 = 7 * 6 * 5 * 4$

$^7P_4 = 840$

<em>Hence, number of ranking is 840</em>

The expression 2( 21x + 75 ) represents the monthly tuition and the one-time materials fee that Jamie pays for his two children

ss7ja [257]

Answer: x represents the number of months, 150 represents one-time materials fee, 2( 21x + 75 ) represents total fees in x months and 42 represents rate of change.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, Here the expression 2( 21x + 75 ) represents the monthly tuition and the one-time materials fee that Jamie pays for his two children to join a science club.

Let, f(x) represents the monthly tuition fee

Therefore, f(x)= 2( 21x + 75 )

⇒f(x)= 42 x +150

Again according to the question, there is a one-time materials fee which must be free from the variable.

Therefore In f(x) , 150 must represent one time material fees.

And, x is variable, and here number of months is a variable.

Thus, x must be denote the number of months.

And, 42 must be denote the fees for 1 month.
