Terry bought some gum and some candy. The number of packs of chewing gum was one more than the number of mints. The number of mi

nts was three times the number of chocolate bars. If gum cost 6 cents a pack, mints cost 3 cents each, and chocolate bars cost 10 cents each, how many of each confection did he get for 80 cents?

Answer:

Hi!!

Step-by-step explanation:

7 = chewing gum

Answer:

number of packs of chewing gum is 7

number of mints  is 6

number of chocolate bars is 2

Step-by-step explanation:

number of packs of chewing gum → x,  cost 6¢

number of mints → y = x-1 =3z,  cost  3¢

number of chocolate bars → z = y/3 = (x-1)/3, cost 10¢

put in equation 6x + 3y +10z = 80 plug in term of x

6x +3(x-1) +10((x-1)/3) =80 multiply each side by 3

18x +9(x-1) +10(x-1) =240 distribute

18x+9x-9+10x-10 =240 combine like terms

37x-19 = 240 add 19 in each side

37x =259

x = 7

plug into y = x-1 = 7-1 = 6 so y=6

and  z = y/3 =6/3 =2 so z = 2

Find the area of the shaded region. round answers to the nearest tenth. assume all inscribed polygons are regular. 29.3 units2
FromTheMoon [43]
The picture in the attached figure

we know that
the area of the shaded region is equal to
(2/3)*[area of the circle - the area of the triangle]  

step 1
Find the area of a circle Ac
Ac = π r²
Ac = π (6)²
Ac = 113.10 units²

step 2
find the area of the triangle At
The triangle is an equilateral triangle with angles on each corner equal to 60 degrees. Meanwhile,
the 3 angles at the center is 120 degrees each since a circle is 360 degree.
 We know that the radius (line from centerpoint to corner) is equivalent to 6.
Using the cosine law,
we can calculate for the length of one side.
s² = 6^ + 6² – 2 (6) (6) cos 120
s² = 108
s = 10.4 units
Since this is an equilateral triangle, therefore, all sides are equal.
The area for this is:
At = (sqrt3 / 4) * s²
At = 46.77 units²

step 3
the area of the shaded region=(2/3)*[area of the circle - the area of the triangle]  
the area of the shaded region=(2/3)*[113.10-46.77]------> 44.22 units²

therefore

the answer is
the area of the shaded region is 44.22 units²
