Three people spend $22.50 on large popcorns and soft drinks. They go back the next week and each pay $8.00 for each ticket, they

each get a large soft drink, but they share one large bucket of popcorn. This return trip costs them a total of $37.50. How much is each large soft drink and each large bucket of popcorn?

Answer:

Cost of each large soft drink is $3.00 and Cost of each Large bucket of popcorn is $4.50.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the Cost of each large soft drink be x.

Also Let the Cost of each Large bucket of popcorn be y.

Number of people = 3

Money Spend on popcorn and soft drink = $22.50

Hence we can say that;

3x+3y=22.50 \ \ \ \ equation \ 1

Next week three people traveled again.

Each ticket was bought = $8.00

Number of tickets bought = 3

Money spend on tickets = 8\times3 = \$24

Total return trip = $37.50

Also they each get a large soft drink, but they share one large bucket of popcorn

Cost of Soft drink = 3x

Cost of popcorn = y

Now Total return trip is equal to sum of Money spend on tickets  and Cost of soft drink and Cost of popcorn.

Hence equation can be framed as;

24+3x+y=37.50\\3x+y=37.50-24\\3x+y = 13.50 \ \ \ \ eqaution \ 2

Now Subtracting equation 2 from equation 1 we get;

(3x+3y)-(3x+y)=22.50-13.50\\\\3x+3y-3x-y=9\\\\2y= 9\\\\y=\frac{9}{2}=\$4.50

Now substituting the value of y in equation 1 we get;

3x+3y=22.50\\\\3x+3\times4.50=22.50\\\\3x+13.50=22.50\\\\3x=22.50-13.50\\\\3x= 9\\\\x=\frac{9}{3}=\$3.00

Hence Cost of each large soft drink is $3.00 and Cost of each Large bucket of popcorn is $4.50.

A regulation basketball has a diameter of about 9 in. What is the best approximation for the volume of this ball? 3050 in³ 382 i
Mandarinka [93]

The best apporximation for the volume of this ball is 382 cubic inches.

<h3>What is the volume of the ball?</h3>

The volume of the ball is calculated by the formula V = 4 / 3πr³. This formula is the same in the whole world.

Given

A regulation basketball has a diameter of about 9 in.

The radius of the ball is;

\rm Radius = \dfrac{Diameter}{2}\\\\Radius=\dfrac{9}{2}\\\\Radius=4.5\ inches

The volume of the ball is;

\rm Volume =\dfrac{4}{3}\pi r^3\\\\Volume=\dfrac{4}{3} \times 3.14 \times 4.5^3\\\\Volume =\dfrac{144.53}{3}\\\\Volume = 381.51\\\\Volume = 382 \ In^3 \ apporx

Hence, the best apporximation for the volume of this ball is 382 cubic inches.

He will never reach the full foot, this is because if he travels 1/2 of the distance of the previous jump each time there will always be a fraction that is unaccounted for.

Write 3x^2-18x-6 in vertex form
Vedmedyk [2.9K]
The standard form of a quadratic equation is \displaystyle{ y=ax^2+bx+c, while the vertex form is:

                      y=a(x-h)^2+k, where (h, k) is the vertex of the parabola.

What we want is to write \displaystyle{ y=3x^2-18x-6 as y=a(x-h)^2+k

First, we note that all the three terms have a factor of 3, so we factorize it and write:

\displaystyle{ y=3(x^2-6x-2).


Second, we notice that x^2-6x are the terms produced by (x-3)^2=x^2-6x+9, without the 9. So we can write:

x^2-6x=(x-3)^2-9, and substituting in \displaystyle{ y=3(x^2-6x-2) we have:

\displaystyle{ y=3(x^2-6x-2)=3[(x-3)^2-9-2]=3[(x-3)^2-11].

Finally, distributing 3 over the two terms in the brackets we have:

y=3[x-3]^2-33.


Answer: y=3(x-3)^2-33

Compare and contrast expanding and simplifying algebraic expressions with simplifying numeric expressions. For example, compare
larisa [96]
<span>With algebraic expressions, you can’t add and subtract any terms like you can add and subtract numbers. Terms must be like terms in order to combine them. So, you can’t always simplify an algebraic expression by following the order of operations. You have to use the distributive property to rewrite the expression and then combine like terms to simplify. With numeric expressions, you can either simplify inside the parentheses first or use the distributive property first.</span>

Solve the x <br> 1/3x + 5&gt; 10
kotykmax [81]

Answer:

The solution to the inequality is:

\frac{1}{3}x+5>10\quad :\quad \begin{bmatrix}\mathrm{Solution:}\:&\:x>15\:\\ \:\mathrm{Interval\:Notation:}&\:\left(15,\:\infty \:\right)\end{bmatrix}

The solution graph is also attached below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

We are given the expression

\frac{1}{3}x+5>10

To determine

Solve for x

Given the expression

\frac{1}{3}x+5>10

Subtract 5 from both sides

\frac{1}{3}x+5-5>10-5

Simplify

\frac{1}{3}x>5

Multiply both sides by 3

3\cdot \frac{1}{3}x>5\cdot \:3

Simplify

x>15

Thus, we conclude that:

x>15

Therefore, the solution to the inequality is:

\frac{1}{3}x+5>10\quad :\quad \begin{bmatrix}\mathrm{Solution:}\:&\:x>15\:\\ \:\mathrm{Interval\:Notation:}&\:\left(15,\:\infty \:\right)\end{bmatrix}

The solution graph is also attached below.
