Can someone help me out

You go shopping at a local department store with your friend and cousin. You buy one pair of jeans, four pairs of shorts, and tw

VashaNatasha [74]

Answer: Cost per pair of jeans = $ 20

Cost per pair of shorts = $12

Cost per shirt = $8

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x= cost per pair of jeans

y = Cost per pair of shorts

z= cost per shirt.

For you, total cost = x+4y+2z= 84

For your friend, total cost = 2x+y+3z=76

For cousin, total cost = x+2y+z= 52

Required system:

$x+4y+2z=84\ (i)\\ 2x+y+3z=76\ (ii)\\ x+2y+z=52\ (iii)$

from (i), $x=84-4y-2z$ (*)

put this in (ii) and (iii) we get

$2\left(84-4y-2z\right)+y+3z=76\\\Rightarrow\ -7y-z+168=76\ (iv)\\\\ 84-4y-2z+2y+z=52\\\Rightarrow\ -2y-z+84=52 \ (v)$

from (iv), $y=-\frac{z-92}{7}\ (vi)$

$\mathrm{Subsititute\:}y=-\frac{z-92}{7}\ \text{in}\ (v)$

$-2\left(-\frac{z-92}{7}\right)-z+84=52\\\\\Rightarrow\ -2\left(-\frac{z-92}{7}\right)-z=-32\\\\\Rightarrow\ -\frac{5z}{7}-\frac{184}{7}=-32\\\\\Rightarrow\ -5z-184=-224\\\\\Rightarrow\ -5z=-40\\\\\Rightarrow\ z=8$

$\mathrm{Subsititute\:}z=8\text{ in (vi)}$

$y=-\frac{8-92}{7}\\\\\Rightarrow \ y=12$

$\mathrm{Subsititute\:}z=8,\:y=12\text{ in (*)}$

$x=84-4\cdot \:12-2\cdot \:8\\\\\Rightarrow\ x= 20$

Hence, x= 20, y= 12 , z=8

So, Cost per pair of jeans = $ 20

Cost per pair of shorts = $12

Cost per shirt = $8

Sarah received $55 for her birthday. She used some of that money to buy 3 shirts priced at m dollars each.

jolli1 [7]

Answer:

$55 - 3m$

Step-by-step explanation:

Sarah has $55

Her expenses are 3 shirts priced at $m each.

Total cost of 3 shirts at $m each would be the multiplication of each:

3 * m = 3m

The amount of money Sarah has left would be the total she had MINUS what she spent on 3 shirts. That would be:

Remaining Money = 55 - 3m

Please help me! I'm spending 50 points on this question and my last two questions never even got answered!

Answer:

C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Domain is only affected if certain values can make the result something that either doesn't make sense or is an error. In your situation, it wants you to find the domain of f/g, which is a fraction. The only rule we have for fractions regarding domain is that we simply can't divide by zero, to find the domain for any fraction with variables in the denominator, what I do is take the denominator, set it equal to 0, and solve for x.

So, if we're taking f/g, we have:

$\frac{3x^2 + x^4 + 2}{4x - 3}$

4x - 3 makes up our denominator, the bottom part of the fraction. So

4x - 3 = 0

4x = 3

x = 3/4

So the denominator is equal to zero when x is equal to 3/4. This would produce an error in any calculator because you can't divide by zero. The domain here is all real numbers except for 3/4.

(For future problems, the only thing to look out for is if your numerator, the top part of the fraction, factors into something that cancels with the bottom. In that case, it wouldn't affect domain because you aren't actually dividing by anything. For example:

$\frac{x^2 - 4}{x-2}$

If we factor the top, we see that x^2 - 4 = (x - 2)(x + 2). In this case, we have (x - 2) in both the top and bottom of the fraction, so it cancels out, and from there nothing else is restricting our domain. It would be all real numbers in a case like that.)

HELP NEEDED!!!

V125BC [204]

a) The formula for compound interest is:

Total = starting amount x (1 + interest rate)^ number of years

b)

Using the given information you have:

1200 = 500 x (1+0.045)^x where x is the length of time you want to find.

1200 = 500 (1.045)^x

Divide both sides by 500:

2.4 = 1.045^x

Use natural logarithms:

ln(1.045^x) = ln(2.4)

Solve for x:

X = ln(2.4) / ln(1.045)

X = 19.889 years ( Round the answer as needed).
