Answer:

t(p)=\sqrt{\frac{1}{2}(600-p)}

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the expression that gives p in term of t is,

p(t)=600-2t^2 -----(1)

Where, p represents the price and t represents the number of months t (passed since January 1).

From equation (1),

p=600-2t^2

2t^2=600-p

t^2=\frac{1}{2}(600-p)

t=\pm \sqrt{\frac{1}{2}(600-p)}

But, number of months can not be negative,

\implies t=\sqrt{\frac{1}{2}(600-p)}

Since, in this expression t is in the term of p,

Hence, the required expression that gives the number of months t in terms of the price p is,

t(p)=\sqrt{\frac{1}{2}(600-p)}

Let p be a fixed value of price. The expression for t given a value of p is as follows:

p=600-2t^2\\2t^2 = 600-p\\t^2 = \frac{600-p}{2}\\|t| = \sqrt{\frac{600-p}{2}}\\t=\sqrt{\frac{600-p}{2}},\,\,\,\,\,\,t\geq 0,\,\,p\leq 600

Nancy’s nut store sells peanuts for $2 per pound and cashews for $10 per pound. The store sells a peanut - cashew mixture for $7
Gelneren [198K]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  • 25 pounds cashews
  • 15 pounds peanuts

Step-by-step explanation:

Let c represent the number of pounds of cashews in the mix. Then 40-c is the number of pounds of peanuts. The total cost of the mix is ...

  10c +2(40 -c) = 7(40)

  8c +80 = 280 . . . . simplify

  c +10 = 35 . . . . . . . divide by 8

  c = 25 . . . . . . . . . . subtract 10

  40-c = 40-25 = 15 . . . . pounds of peanuts

25 pounds of cashews and 15 pounds of peanuts should be used in the mix.

The Nuthouse offers a mixture of soy nuts and almonds, Almonds
elena55 [62]

Answer:

  14 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equations can be solved for y by substituting for x. The first equation is convenient for writing x in terms of y.

<h3>Solution</h3>

  x = 20 -y . . . . . . . subtract y from the first equation

  7(20 -y) +5.5y = 119 . . . . . substitute for x in the second equation

  140 -1.5y = 119 . . . . . . . . simplify

  21 = 1.5y . . . . . . . . . . . add 1.5y -119 to both sides

  14 = y . . . . . . . . . . . .divide by 1.5

14 pounds of soy nuts should be used in the mixture.

<em>Additional comment</em>

There are many ways to solve a system of two linear equations. The attachments shows a matrix solution using a suitable calculator. It tells us that x=6 and y=14, as we found above.
