An office manager reported that he spent $350 on gifts for employees. He said that $240 was spent on clothing with each man rece

iving a $20 T-shirt and each woman receiving a $40 sweatshirt. He said that $110 was spent on desk accessories with each man receiving a $5 calendar and each woman receiving a $15 stapler. If m equals the number of men and wequals the number of women, the system of equations that represents the expenses is as follows:
m+2w=12

m+3w=22

Solve the system, showing all steps, and then discuss the reasonableness of the answer.

Answer:

The correct answer is the solution of the system of equations are w = 10 and m = -8. The answer is not at all reasonable.

Step-by-step explanation:

The two system of equations are m + 2w = 12 and m + 3w = 22 where m and w represent the number of men and women working in an office.

We subtract both the sides with each other in order to solve the system of equation.

⇒ m + 3w - m - 2w = 22 - 12

⇒ w = 10.

⇒ m = -8.

The values of w and m are not reasonable at all. Since m and w represent the number of men and women in an office, they cannot be less than zero.

Assume a color display using 8 bits for each of the primary colors (red, green, blue) per pixel and a frame size of 1280 × 1024.
elixir [45]

-8bits is equivalent yo 1 byte

-bit is(0 or 1)

So each pixel requires 3 bytes

Primary colors are RGB(red,green and blue),so each color represent one byte.

The frame size is:

1280×1024=1310720 pixels

So that the frame contained 1310720 pixels

The size of the frame buffer is equal to the product of RGB and frame pixels:

=3 × 1310720

=3932160 bytes

<h3>Look at the picture.</h3>

<em>commutative property</em>  a + b = b + a

... (-5 + 1/2 + 5) = ... (-5 + 5 + 1/2)

<em>inverse property of addition</em> a + (-a) = a - a = 0

... (-5 + 5 + 1/2) = ... (0 + 1/2)

<em>identity property of addition</em> a + 0 = 0 + a = a

... (0 + 1/2) = ... 1/2

<em>inverse property of multiplication</em> a/b · b/a = 1

37 · 2 · 1/2 = 37 · 2/1 · 1/2 = 37 · 1

<em>identity property of multiplication</em> a · 1 = 1 · a = a

37 · 1 = 37

Naddik [55]

Answer:

centigram is 'bigger.'

Well, if you look on the metric scale it is apparent that 1 mg = 0.1 (or 1/10) cg suggesting that a milligram is the smaller value.
