Answer:

The answer to your question is: 40 bags

Step-by-step explanation:

Data:

box weight = 200 g

Box weight + bags = 6.2 kg

1 bad weight = 150 g

Process:

We need to know the weight of all the bags so we subtract the box weight from the total weight

Goody bags weight = 6200 g - 200 g

Goody bags weight = 6000 g

To find the weight of one bag we use a rule of three

            1 goody bags ----------------   150 g

                      x           ----------------    6000 g

x =  (6000) (1) / 150 = 40 bags

If y varies directly as x, and y is 12 when x is 1.2, what is the constant of variation for this relation?
laila [671]
If you multiply 12 by 0.1, you get 1.2.   To write this as a function you would say y is x multiplied by 0.1.
y=0.1x

For a club gathering you were having, you bought a total of 50 burgers, and spent $90. You paid $2 per turkey burger, and $1.50
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

<u></u>

  • <u>No. You would have to cut the number of veggie burgers in more than half.</u>

Explanation:

<u>1. Model the situation with a system of equations</u>

<u />

<u>a) Name the variables:</u>

  • number of turkey burgers: t
  • number of veggie burgers: v

<u />

<u>b) Number of burgers:</u>

  • 50 = t + v

<u />

<u>c) Cost of the 50 burgers:</u>

  • $90 = 2t + 1.50v

<u>2. Solve that system of equations:</u>

<u />

<u>a) System</u>

  • 50 = t + v
  • 90 = 2t + 1.50v

<u>b) Mutliply the first equation by 2 and subtract the second equation</u>

  • 100 = 2t + 2v
  •  90 = 2t + 1.50v

  • 10 = 0.5v
  • v = 20 ⇒ t = 50 - 20 = 30

<u />

<u>c) How much would you spend if the next year you buy the double of 20 turkey burgers (40) and the half of 30 veggie burgers (15)</u>

  • $2(40) + $1.50(15) = $80 + $22.50 = $102.50

Then, you if you double the number of turkey burgers, and cut the number burgers in half, you would spend more than $90 ($102.50).
