Answer:

70 fries and 35 shakes

Step-by-step explanation:

ASB is selling In-N-Out as a fundraiser. Fries cost $2 and shakes cost $3. Students can only buy one item each. ASB wants to know which sells better but they lose track of what they sold. They know 105 students bought either fries or a shake. They count their money and it’s $245. How many fries (x) and shakes (y) did they sell?

f = fries

s = shakes

To solve this we need to make two equations. Those equations being: f+s = y and 2f+3s = y. Now we will plug in all the values. f + s = 105 and 2f + 3s = 245. Now we will subtract f from 105 to get s. this makes s =105-f. We can then plug this into the other equation making the other equation: 2f+ 3(105-f) = 245. Now we will simplify this to get: 2f + (315 -3f) = 245. When we simplify it further we get: 315-f = 245.Now we will subtract 315 from both sides to get: -f = -70. now divide both sides by -1 and we get f = 70. Now we can plug that into the f+ s = y equation. 70 + s = 105. Subtract 70 from both sides and we have s. S = 35

We try to represent the data in segments from 0 to 20.
<span>The length of the line segment along the number line from 0 to 5 is 5 - 0 = 5 units. The length of the line segment along the number line from 20 to 5 is 20 - 5 = 15 units. If you were to randomly throw a dart on this number line, then the probability of landing in the shaded region is 15/20 = 3/4 or 75%</span>

Find the distance between the complex numbers. z1 = 9 - 9i z2 = 10 - 9i
steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

The distance between the two given complex numbers = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>Explanation</em></u>:-

<u><em>Step(i):</em></u>-

Given  Z₁ = 9 - 9 i    and Z₂ = 10 -9 i

Let A and B represent complex numbers Z₁ and Z₂ respectively on the argand plane

⇒ A =  Z₁ = x₁ +i y₁ = 9 - 9 i and

    B = Z₂ = x₂+ i y₂ = 10 -9 i

Let (x₁ , y₁) = ( 9, -9)

     (x₂, y₂) = (10, -9)

<u>Step(ii)</u>:-

<em>The distance between the two points are </em>

    A B   =   \sqrt{(x_{2} - x_{1})^{2}+(y_{2} - y_{1})^{2}    }

    A B =   \sqrt{(10 - 1)^{2}+(-9 - (-9))^{2}    }

   AB   = \sqrt{(9)^{2} +(-9+9)^{2} }

 <em> AB    =  √81 = 9</em>

<u><em>Conclusion:-</em></u>

The distance between the two given complex numbers = 9

Myra is a scientist and needs 45 gallons of a 16% acid solution. The lab is currently stocked only with a 20% acid solution and
asambeis [7]

Answer:

The volume of the solution with 20% acid is 27 gallons and the one with 10% acid is 18 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

Myra needs to mix "x" gallons of the solution with 20% and "y" gallons of the solution with 10%. The volume of the final solution must be 45 gallons, therefore:

x + y = 45

The concentration of acid of the final solution is:

0.2*x + 0.1*y = 45*0.16

0.2*x + 0.1*y = 7.2

Therefore we have a system of equation:

x + y = 45

0.2*x + 0.1*y = 7.2

We need to multiply the first equation by -0.1:

-0.1*x -0.1*y = -4.5

0.2*x + 0.1*y = 7.2

We now sum both equation:

0.1*x = 2.7

x = 2.7/0.1 = 27 gallons

y = 45 - 27  = 18 gallons

OleMash [197]
45. 3/5 is nearer to 1/2
46. 1 2/6 is nearer to 1 1/2. 1 2/6 can be simplified to 1 1/3
47. 12/10 is nearer to 1 1/2. 12/10 can be simplified to 1 2/10 and further simplified to 1 1/5.
48. 2/18 is nearer to 0. 2/18 can be simplified to 1/9 or 0.11
49. 1 8/10 is nearer to 1 1/2. 1 8/10 can be simplified to 1 4/5
50. 1 12/15 is nearer to 1 1/2. 1 12/15 can be simplified to 1 4/5.
