Short sleeve t-shirts cost $10 and long sleeve t-shirts cost $15. If the t-shirt shop made $485 selling 38 total t-shirts, how m

BartSMP [9]

Answer:

The t-shirt shop sold 21 long sleeve shirts and 17 short sleeve shirts.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, we should create a system of equations. Let's let short sleeve t-shirts be represented by the variable s and long sleeve t-shirts be represented by the variable l.

We know that the shop sold 38 total shirts, or in other words, the amount of long sleeve and short sleeve shirts combined is 38. If we write this as an equation, we get: s + l = 38.

We can make another equation with the prices of the shirts. If we take each type of shirt and multiply each price by the number sold and add them together, we should get the shop's total profits. Represented as an equation, this is: 10s + 15l = 485.

Now that we have two equations, we should try to solve the system. In this case, it is easiest to use substitution, so we are going to rewrite the first equation in terms of one variable.

s + l = 38

s = 38 - l

If we substitute this equivalent value for the variable s into the second equation, we get:

10s + 15l = 485

10(38 - l) + 15l = 485

Now we have an equation that only has one variable, so we can simplify both sides and then isolate the variable.

380 - 10l + 15l = 485

380 + 5l = 485

5l = 105

l = 21

Now, we can substitute this value for l back into the first equation to solve for the variable s.

s + l = 38

s + 21 = 38

s = 17

Therefore, the t-shirt shop sold 21 long sleeve shirts and 17 short sleeve shirts.

Hope this helps!

If f(x) = 3x - 1 and g(x) = x + 2, find (f - g)(x).

Marina86 [1]

Answer:

$\boxed{\sf (f - g)(x) = 2x - 3}$

Given:

f(x) = 3x - 1

g(x) = x + 2

To Find:

The best type of chart for quickly deriving the mode of a sample data is called the Stem-and-Leaf Plot.

In statistics, the Stem-and-Leaf Plot is an easy-to-make easy-to-read kind of graph that is derived from the table holding the sample data.

The Box-and-Whisker Plot on the other hand is best for visually depicting the five-number summary of any set of data, which are:

Minimum
First Quartile
Median (Second Quartile)
Third Quartile; and
Maximum.

It is to be noted that referenced plots are not indicated hence, the general answer.

Match the function with its graph.

Oxana [17]

Answer:

The answer is 1D , 2A , 3C , 4B ⇒ answer (c)

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets talk about the transformation

- If the function f(x) reflected across the x-axis, then the new

function g(x) = - f(x)

- If the function f(x) translated horizontally to the right

by h units, then the new function g(x) = f(x - h)

- If the function f(x) translated horizontally to the left

by h units, then the new function g(x) = f(x + h)

* Lets explain each function

∵ y = tan(x)

∵ y = -tan(x - π/2)

# (x - π/2) means the graph translated horizontally to

the right π/2 units

# -tan(x - π/2) means the graph reflected across the x-axis

∴ The graph is (D)

* 1) y = -tan(x - π/2) ⇒ (D)

∵ y = tan(x + π/2)

# (x + π/2) means the graph translated horizontally to

the left π/2 units

∴ The graph is (A)

* 2) y = -tan(x - π/2) ⇒ (A)

∵ y = -cot(x - π/2)

# (x - π/2) means the graph translated horizontally to

the right π/2 units

# -cot(x - π/2) means the graph reflected across the x-axis

∴ The graph is (C)

* 3) y = -cot(x - π/2) ⇒ (C)

∵ y = cot(x + π/2)

# (x + π/2) means the graph translated horizontally to

the left π/2 units

∴ The graph is (B)

* 4) y = -tan(x - π/2) ⇒ (B)

∴ The answer is 1D , 2A , 3C , 4B answer (c)
