Mathematics
1 answer:
finlep [7]3 years ago

Answer:

18 and 31

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x and y and y be the smaller number

Given

condition 1:

difference between two numbers is 13.

Mathematical expression for this will be

x-y = 13 ( taking x as larger and y as smaller number)

=> x = 13+y   (1)

________________ ____________________________

Condition 2:

twice the smaller plus three times the larger is 129

Twice the smaller is equal as 2y

three times the larger is 3x

according to question

3x+2y = 129

substituting value of x from equation 1 we have

3(13+y) +2y = 129

=> 39+3y+2y = 129

=> 39+5y = 129

=> 5y = 129 - 39 = 90

=> y = 90/5

=> y = 18

Thus, y = 18

and x = 13+y = 13+18 = 31

Therefore, two numbers are 18 and 31.

Assume Jones Manufacturing begins January with 10 units of inventory that cost $10 each. During January, the following purchases
Ratling [72]

Answer:

10.44

Step-by-step explanation:

The weighted average cost per unit method seeks to get the cost of goods sold as an average of all cost of goods in the inventory as at the time of sales.

Part of its objective is to strike a balance between the (FIFO and LIFO) inventory valuation methods.

Beginning inventory ( Jan) = 10 units

Cost of beginning inventory per unit = $10

Total cost of beginning inventory = Cost * Number of units

In this case (10*$10) = $100

Additional purchase (Jan 5) = 8 units

Cost of additional purchase per unit = $11

Total cost of additional purchase = 8 * $11 = $88

Weighted average cost per unit at the time 11 units are sold on January 7 = Total cost of units at that time / number of units available at that time.

= ($100+ $88) / (10+8)

= 188/18

=10.44 (approximated to 2 decimal places)

I hope this helps make the concept clear.

A carpenter purchased 50 ft of redwood and 70 ft of pine for a total cost of $280. A second purchase, at the same prices, includ
iris [78.8K]

The cost per foot of redwood and of pine is $3.5 and $1.5 respectively.

<h3>How to solve simultaneous equation?</h3>

let

  • cost of redwood = x
  • cost of pine = y

50x + 70y = 280

100x + 60y = 440

Multiply (1) by 2

100x + 140y = 560

100x + 60y = 440

subtract to eliminate x

80y = 120

y = 120/80

y = $1.5

substitute y = 1.5 into (1)

50x + 70y = 280

50x + 70(1.5) = 280

50x + 105 = 280

50x = 280 - 105

50x = 175

x = 175 / 50

x = $3.5
