TEA [102]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

  • Iced tea is $4.50 per gallon
  • Lemonade is $4.75 per gallon

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Price</u>:

  • Iced tea = x, lemonade = y

<u>Equations</u>:

  • 2x + 3y = 23.25
  • 5x + 4y = 41.50

<u>Multiply the first equation by 5 and the second equation by 2 and subtract to eliminate x:</u>

  • 5(2x + 3y) - 2(5x + 4y) = 5(23.25) - 2(41.50)
  • 10x + 15y - 10x - 8y = 33.25
  • 7y = 33.25
  • y = 33.25/7
  • y = 4.75

<u>Use the first equation to find x:</u>

  • 2x + 3(4.75) = 23.25
  • 2x = 23.25 - 14.25
  • 2x = 9
  • x = 9/2
  • x = 4.50

Iced tea costs $4.50 per gallon

Lemonade costs $4.75 per gallon

3. If the sum of (3+6i) and (4+pi) is (7+81), then what is the value of p?
Aliun [14]

Answer:

p=2

Step-by-step explanation:

(3+6i) and (4+pi) is (7+8i)

3+4 = 7

6i+pi = 8i

Subtract 6i from each side

pi = 8i-6i

pi = 2i

That means p = 2

Can anyone solve the last question?
sesenic [268]
As stated in (i), the equation of the line is: ln y = -0.015x + .26
(By the way, I checked your answers for parts (i) and (ii) and they are both correct)

(iii)
Plug in (1.1) for y and solve:
ln (1.1) = -0.015x + .26
0.095 = -0.015x + .26
-0.165 = - 0.015x

Identify the effect on the graph of replacing f(x) by f(x - h)
Tresset [83]

Given:

Replace f(x) by f(x - h).

To find:

The effect on the graph of replacing f(x) by f(x - h).

Solution:

Horizontal shift is defined as:

If the graph f(x) shifts h units left, then f(x+h).

If the graph f(x) shifts h units right, then f(x-h).

Where, h is a constant that represents the horizontal shift.

In the given problem f(x) is replaced by f(x - h) and we need to find the effect on the graph.

Here, we have x-h in place of x.

Therefore, the graph of f(x) shifts h units right to get the graph of f(x-h).
