Let the total number of sweatshirts sold be S and the total number of baseball caps sold be B
Total sales is the total number of sweatshirts sold times $20 plus the total number of baseball caps sold times 10. 
Equation 1: 20S + 10B = 2860
people bought 6 times as many sweatshirts as caps. Which means the number of sweatshirts sold (S) is 6 times caps sold(B) 
Equation 2:  S = 6B --- substitute S in equation 1 with 6B
=> 20(6B) + 10B = 2860
=> 120B + 10B = 2860
=> 130B = 2860 --- divide both side by 130 
=> B = 2860/130 
=> B = 22 --- is the number of caps sold. 
To find the number of sweatshirts sold we use equation 2
S = 6B --- but we know now B = 22
=> S = 6(22) 
=> S = 132 

therefore 132 sweatshirts sold and 22 baseball caps sold.

What is the value of f(g(1)
ladessa [460]

Composite functions is a way of substituting one function into another. The value of the composite function f(g(1)) is 1

<h3>Composite functions</h3>

Composite functions is a way of substituting one function into another.


Given the function expressed as:

y = 3√x + 1

g(1) from the mapping is 0

Substitute g(1) = 0 into the given function to have:

f(g(1)) =  3√0 .+ 1

f(g(1)) =0 + 1
f(g(1))  = 1

Hence the value of the composite function f(g(1)) is 1

I don’t understand this problem
ikadub [295]

Hello! the answer is c

First of all let's eliminate the answers that do not make sense. For A. numbers are NOT irrational because they are a fraction. Numbers are also not irrational because they are a repeating number. C and D are both correct as fractions and terminating decimals are both rational numbers.

34/3≈11.33333333

By using a certain formula you can convert repeating decimals to a fraction. But most people know that .3333333 is 1/3. This gives us 11 1/3 as our answer. So what does it match? It is not a terminating decimal. It repeats but can be written as a fraction. Therefore our answer is C) Rational, because it is a fraction.

I hope this helps!

Simplify write in scientific notation 0.5(8x10^5)
Oksi-84 [34.3K]
10 to the 5th power means 5 times zero, place 8 before that and it will be 800000 then multiply with 0.5 it will be 400000. In scientific notation it will be like 4x10 the 5th power.
