The networking organization you joined is throwing a party. You are in charge of buying the chips, which cost $2.50 per bag and

salsa, which costs $4 per jar. The chips & salsa budget you are given totals $60. The inequality 2.5x + 4y less than or equal to 60 represents the possible combinations of chips (x) and salsa (y ) you can buy.

Answer:

Number of salsa jars you can buy is 8 jars

The number of bags of chips you can buy is 28 bags

Step-by-step explanation:

The question above is incomplete.

In other to complete it, we would have to make some assumptions.

You are in charge of buying the chips, which cost $2.50 per bag and salsa, which costs $4 per jar. The chips & salsa budget you are given totals $60. The inequality 2.5x + 4y less than or equal to 60 represents the possible combinations of chips (x) and salsa (y ) you can buy.

Hence, we solve for x and y

The inequality is given:

2.5x + 4y ≤ 60

2.5x + 4y = 60........ Equation 1

Let us assume that the total number of bags of chips - jar of salsa you can buy is equal to 20.

Hence:

x - y = 20...... Equation 2

x = 20 + y

Substitute 20 + y for x in Equation 1

2.5x + 4y = 60........ Equation 1

2.5(20 + y) + 4y = 60

50 + 2.5y + 4y = 60

Collect like terms

2.5y + 4y = 60 -50

6.5y = 50

y = 50/6.5

y = 7.6923076923

Approximately to the nearest whole number

Number of salsa jars you can buy is 8

From here, we can solve for x based on this assumptions

x - y = 20

x - 8 = 20

x = 20 + 8

x = 28

The number of bags of chips you can buy is 28 bags

What is the midpoint between 3.99 and 4
asambeis [7]

Answer:  

3.995

Step-by-step explanation:

A midpoint is defined as a point that is exactly in the middle between two other points. The midpoint between two numbers is the number exactly in the middle of the two numbers. Calculating the midpoint is the same thing as calculating the average of two numbers. Therefore, you can calculate the midpoint between any two numbers by adding them together and dividing by two.

Find the limit of the sequence of partial sums whose general term is <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=a_n%3D%5Cfrac%7B100%5En%7
nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

0

Step-by-step explanation:

If ∑aₙ converges, then lim(n→∞)aₙ = 0.

Using ratio test, we can determine if the series converges:

If lim(n→∞) |aₙ₊₁ / aₙ| < 1, then ∑aₙ converges.

If lim(n→∞) |aₙ₊₁ / aₙ| > 1, then ∑aₙ diverges.

lim(n→∞) |(100ⁿ⁺¹ / (n+1)!) / (100ⁿ / n!)|

lim(n→∞) |(100ⁿ⁺¹ / (n+1)!) × (n! / 100ⁿ)|

lim(n→∞) |(100 / (n+1)|

0 < 1

The series converges.  Therefore, lim(n→∞)aₙ = 0.

Which table represents a function?
zalisa [80]

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

to be a function, there has to be exactly one x for every y. if there is more than one per y, it makes it not a function. so, if there is two of the same number in the x, it's not a function.

olga55 [171]

Answer:

  EC = 15

Step-by-step explanation:
