Construct an equation in which s is the number of tons of sugar to be transported 4500 + 150.25s = 3696 + 200.5s Solve for s 4500 - 3696 = 200.5s - 150.25s 804 = 50.25s s = 804/50.25 = 16 tons of sugar The cost is found by plugging this value into either side of the original equation; it is $6904.

1. Solve for the x and y intercepts:
aleksandrvk [35]
To find the x-intercept, you simply make y equal to 0 and solve the equation for x. To find the y-intercept, you make x equal to 0 and solve for y. So, for number 1, the answer is D because when you set it to y equals 0, you get x=3 and when you set it to x equals 0, you get 4. 
Number 2 we would do the same thing and get D as well.
Hope this helps!

Please help! Thank you so much!

Angle W:

180 = 90 + 57 + W

180 = 147 + W

W = 33 degrees

Using trigonometry functions to find the side lengths. (SOH CAH TOA)

Side XZ:

cos(57) = XZ / 18

XZ = cos(57) x 18

XZ = 9.8 units

Side XW:

sin(57) = XW / 18

XW = sin(57) x 18

XW = 15.1 units

Hope this helps!! :)

In 3 hours, they could bake 87 birthday cupcakes. If you divid 145 by 5 this gives you 29, and you multiply this by 3 to find how many can be made in 3 hours, which gives you 87:) hope this helps!

I need help solving a system of linear equation, and it says to solve it by Substitution.
olga_2 [115]
2x - 3y = -24
x+ 6y = 18

you solve the first one by the x:

2x = -24 + 3y

x = (-24+3y)/2

then you substitute what you found in the other equation and you solve by y

(-24+3y)/2 + 6y = 18                   multiply everything by 2

-24 + 3y + 12y = 36

3y + 12y = 36 + 24

15y = 60

y = 60/15

y = 4

Good job! You found your y! :D

Now let's substitute the y in the first equation with 4:

2x - 3(4) = -24

2x - 12 = -24

2x = -24 + 12

2x = -12

x = -12/2

x= -6

Done!! ;) <span />

Joshua Treet had a $400.00 average monthly expenditure for entertainment during the second quarter of the year. He spent $401.50
irga5000 [103]
First, the formula for the average of a data set must be defined. It is calculated by adding all the numbers in the data set and then dividing the sum by the number of data. In this case, the average is set to be equal to $400 with the total number of data being 3, with the September expenditure set as an unknown, x. The equation is then set-up to be: 400 = (401.5 + 250 + x)/3. Thus, Joshua can spend as much as $ 548.5 to be able to have the same average as in his second quarter expenditure.
