Answer:

Cup cakes= $3

Bear claws = $10

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the orice of cupcakes be x and the price of bear claws be y

5x+ 3y= 45

4x + 6y= 72

Multiply equation 1 by 4 and equation 2 by 5

20x + 12y= 180

20x + 30y= 360

-18y= -180

y= 10

Substitute 10 for y in equation 1

5x + 3(10)= 45

5x + 30= 45

5x = 45-30

5x= 15

x= 15/5

= 3

Hence the price of cup cakes is 3 and bear claws is $10

F(x) = 4x^2+2x+6 what is the discriminant of f? How many distinct real number zeros does f have?
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

The discriminant of f is 92, and it has no real zeros

Step-by-step explanation:

The discriminant of a quadratic is b^2-4ac, where the quadratic is in the form ax^2+bx+c. The discriminant of this one is therefore:

2^2-4(4)(6)=4-96=-92

Since the square root of a negative number is imaginary, this quadratic has no real number zeros. Hope this helps!

Write the slope-intercept form of the equation that passes through the point (-3, 5) and is perpendicular to the line y = 1/5x +
aleksley [76]

Answer:

<h2>y = -5x - 10</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

\text{Let}\\\\k:y=m_1x+b_1\\\\l:y=m_2x+b_2\\\\l\ \perp\ k\iff m_1m_2=-1\to m_2=-\dfrac{1}{m_1}\\\\l\ \parallel\ k\iff m_1=m_2\\\\=========================

\text{We have}\ y=\dfrac{1}{5}x+10\to m_1=\dfrac{1}{5}\\\\\text{Therefore}\ m_2=-\dfrac{1}{\frac{1}{5}}=-5.\\\\\text{Put the value of a slope and the coordinates of the point (-3, 5)}\\\text{to the equation}\ y=mx+b:\\\\5=-5(-3)+b\\5=15+b\qquad\text{subtract 15 from both sides}\\-10=b\to b=-10\\\\\text{Finally:}\\\\y=-5x-10
