Rachel has 60 scones. She sells them to Robbie, Cameron, Louis, Tom and Charlie in that order. Each customer buys more scones th
Korvikt [17]
Robbie bought the smallest amount. Let's use x for that amount.
Let's use n for amount that each following customer increases.

We have:
Robbie=x
Cameron=x+n
Louis=x+n+n
Tom=x+n+n+n
Charlie=x+n+n+n+n

We know that they bought total of 60 scones.
Robbie + Cameron + Louis + Tom + Charlie = 60
x + x+n + x+n+n + x+n+n+n + x+n+n+n+n = 60
5x + 10n = 60 /:5
x + 2n = 12

We are also given this information:
(Robbie + Cameron) = 3/7 * (Louis + Tom + Charlie)
We insert the equations from above:
(x + x+n) = 3/7 * (x+n+n + x+n+n+n + x+n+n+n+n) 
2x + n = 3/7 * (3x + 9n) /*7
14x + 7n = 3* (3x + 9n)
14x +7n = 9x + 27n
We take everything on the left side.
14x + 7n - 9x - 27n = 0
5x - 20n = 0/:5
x - 4n = 0

Now we have two equations:
x + 2n = 12
x - 4n = 0
We solve second one for x and insert it into first one.
x + 2n = 12
x = 4n

4n + 2n =12
6n = 12 /:6
n = 2
x=4*2
x=8


Now we can solve for the amount for each customer.
Robbie=x = 8
Cameron=x+n = 8 + 2 = 10
Louis=x+n+n = 8 + 2 + 2 = 12
Tom=x+n+n+n = 8 + 2 + 2 + 2 = 14
Charlie=x+n+n+n+n = 8 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 = 16

The rental rate for a cement mixer has a flat rate of $40 plus $20 for each day of the rental. The graph shows points representi
____ [38]

Answer:

y = 20x + 40

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the rental rate for a cement mixer has a flat rate of $40 plus $20 for each day of the rental.

That means fixed one time cost is $40 which doesn't changes with time.

If number of days is represented by "x" then rental cost for "x" days will be 20 times x or just 20x.

So the final cost will be sum of fixed cost and the rental cost per day which is:

20x+40

Now if "y" represents total rental cost over time then final cost equation can be written as:

y = 20x + 40

Hence final answer is y = 20x + 40y = 20x + 40.

HELP DUE IN 15 MINS!
Tasya [4]

Answer:

Area of the sector = 47.52π

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the sector of the circle;

A = ∅ / 360 * πr²

We know that;

∅ = 120

r = 12

So now we can substitute;

A = (120 / 360) * π(12)²

A = 0.33 * 144π

A = 47.52π

Hope this helps!
