Two teachers purchase supplies for their classrooms.

Answer:

Cost of One Journal =  $3.99

Cost of One pen =  $0.59

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Cost of One Journal = x

Cost of One pen = y

We can make equation from given statements.

Mr. Bowden purchases 18 journals and 40 pencils for $95.42.

18x+40y=95.42

Ms. Jacinto purchases 11 journals and 16 pencils for $53.33.

11x+16y=53.33

Now solving these equations to find the value of x

18x+40y=95.42--eq(1)\\11x+16y=53.33--eq(2)

Multiply eq(1) with 2 and eq(2) with 5

36x+80y=190.84\\55x+80y=266.65\\-\:\:\:\:-\:\:\:\;\:\:\:\:\:\:\:-\\---------\\-19x=-75.81\\x=\frac{-75.81}{-19}\\x=3.99\\

We get the value of x is: x=3.99

Now, putting value of x in equation 1 to find value of y.

18x+40y=95.42\\18(3.99)+40y=95.42\\71.82+40y=95.42\\40y=95.42-71.82\\40y=23.6\\y=\frac{23.6}{40}\\y= 0.59

So, we get the value of y: y = 0.59

Now, finding the costs:

Cost of One Journal = x = $3.99

Cost of One pen = y = $0.59

If you help will make you brainlest
Bumek [7]

Answer:

see below

Step by step explanation

\because \: revenue = price \times demand \\   \therefore \: r(x) = x.d(x) \\ \therefore \: r(x) =x(200 - 2x)  \\\therefore \: r(x) = \boxed{200x - 2 {x}^{2}  }

1/2 * 1/2 = (1*1)/(2*2)

1/2 + 1/2 = (1+1)/(2) = 2/2 = 1

What is the slope of a line with a x-intercept of -3 and a y-intercept of -4?
GuDViN [60]

The x intercept is -3 so the point (-3,0) is on the line. This point is on the horizontal x axis. The x intercept is always in the form (NUMBER,0) where you replace "NUMBER" with any number you want.

The y intercept is -4 so we know that (0,-4) is also on the line. This is on the vertical y axis. The y intercept is always in the form (0,NUMBER)

Use the slope formula to find the slope of the line through the points (-3,0) and (0,-4)

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m = (-4-0)/(0-(-3))

m = (-4-0)/(0+3)

m = -4/3

The answer is choice B: -4/3

I have a feeling you mixed up x and y somehow when you got -3/4

Create an example of a situation where there is a negative cash flow.
dimaraw [331]

Answer:

when say your expenses are $400 a month but your income is only $350 a month that is -$50 every month so in that case you aren't getting a positive cash flow (which would be making more money than your expenses) So you must be getting a negative cash flow in which you are losing money and going into debt.

Hope this Helps :)
