Answer:
y= 11 + 1.50x. (y is the price, x is number of toppings)
Step-by-step explanation:
First, "boxes of two sizes" means we can assign variables: Let x = number of large boxes y = number of small boxes "There are 115 boxes in all" means x + y = 115 [eq1] Now, the pounds for each kind of box is: (pounds per box)*(number of boxes) So, pounds for large boxes + pounds for small boxes = 4125 pounds "the truck is carrying a total of 4125 pounds in boxes" (50)*(x) + (25)*(y) = 4125 [eq2] It is important to find two equations so we can solve for two variables. Solve for one of the variables in eq1 then replace (substitute) the expression for that variable in eq2. Let's solve for x: x = 115 - y [from eq1] 50(115-y) + 25y = 4125 [from eq2] 5750 - 50y + 25y = 4125 [distribute] 5750 - 25y = 4125 -25y = -1625 y = 65 [divide both sides by (-25)] There are 65 small boxes. Put that value into either equation (now, which is easier?) to solve for x: x = 115 - y x = 115 - 65 x = 50 There are 50 large boxes.
Answer:
$78, $79.20
Step-by-step explanation:
PART A: $60 times 1.3 = $78
you add 30% to 100% to get 130% since it is a mark up, and then you convert to a decimal by going to the left twice then multiplying by original price.
PART B
Since it is a discount you subtract 15 percent from 100, but then add back 5 percent since there is tax applied to get 90%, convert to decimal and multiply by original price to get $88 x .9 = $79.20
Answer: y = 4x/3 - 5/2
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a straight line can be represented in the slope intercept form as
y = mx + c
Where
c represents the y intercept
m = slope = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
The given line, L1 passes through A(6, - 7) and B(- 6, 2). The slope of line L1 is
m = (2 - - 7)/(- 6 - 6) = 9/ -12 = - 3/4
If two lines are perpendicular, it means that the slope of one line is the negative reciprocal of the slope of the other line.
Therefore, the slope of line L2 passing through the midpoint, M is 4/3
The formula determining the midpoint of a line is expressed as
[(x1 + x2)/2 , (y1 + y2)/2]
Midpoint, M = [(6 + -6)/2 , (- 7 + 2)/2]
= (0, - 5/2]
This means that the y intercept of line L2 is - 5/2
The equation of L2 becomes
y = 4x/3 - 5/2
Using the perimeter of a rectangle, it is found that she can make a deck of 122 ft wide.
<h3>What is the perimeter of a rectangle?</h3>
The perimeter of a rectangle of length l and width w is given by:
In this problem:
- She has enough wood to build a deck that is 280ft, hence P = 280.
- The length is of 10 feet, hence l = 10.
- Considering that the deck's width will be added to the actual width of 8 feet, we have that w = 8 + w.
Then:
She can make a deck of 122 ft wide.
