Answer:

276 guests at the wedding

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Given

Call the number of guests at the wedding x

\frac{1}{3} of the guests ordered beef,

\frac{1}{3} x ordered beef

\frac{5}{12} of the guests ordered chicken,

\frac{5}{12} x ordered chicken

69 guests ordered vegetarian.

2. Solving

If one were to add up all these values, one would get the total number of guests at the wedding. Hence set up the following equation;

\frac{1}{3} x + \frac{5}{12} x + 69 = x

Simplify,

- convert fractions to a common denomintor

- reduce fractions

\frac{4}{12} x + \frac{5}{12} x + 69 = x

\frac{9}{12} x + 69 = x

\frac{3}{4} x + 69 = x

69 = x - \frac{3}{4} x

69 = \frac{1}{4}x

*4     *4

276 = x

Find the exponential function that satisfies the given conditions: Initial value = 64, decreasing at a rate of 0.5% per week
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

An exponential function is of the form

y=ab^x

where a is the initial value and b is the growth/decay rate.  Our initial value is 64.  That's easy to plug in.  It goes in for a.  So the first choice is out.  Considering b now...

If the rate is decreasing at .5% per week, this means it still retains a rate of

100% - .5% = 99.5%

which is .995 in decimal form.

b is a rate of decay when it is greater than 0 but less than 1; b is a growth rate when it is greater than 1.   .995 is less than 1 so it is a rate of decay.  The exponential function is, in terms of t,

f(t) = 64(.995)^t

  5y(2x−3)=y(x+2)+20 where x=3
Feliz [49]
Here x=3
so, putting 3 instead of x
5y(2(3)-3)=y(3+2)+20 \\ 5y(3)=5y+20 \\ 15y-5y=20 \\ 10y=20 \\ y=20/10=2

Solve for x: 4(x + 2) = 3(x − 2)<br><br>A) −2<br>B)−4<br>C) −10<br>D) −14
BARSIC [14]

4(x+2)=3(x-2)

Multiply the first bracket by 4

Multiply the second bracket by 3

4x+8=3x-6

Move 3x to the left hand side, whenever moving a number with a letter the sign changes ( positive 3x to negative 3x)

4x-3x+8=3x-3x-6

x+8=-6

Move positive 8 to the right hand side

x+8-8=-6-8

x=-14

Check answer by using substitution method

Use x=-14 into both of the equations

4(-14+2)=3(-14-2)

-56+8=-42-6

-48=-48

Answer is -14- D)

A game consists of rolling a colored die with three red sides, two green sides, and one blue side. A roll of a red loses. A roll
Pavel [41]

The expected value of the game is $2.00.

To Find: The fair price to pay to play the game of rolling a colored die with three red sides, two green sides, and one blue side

Now the question arises how to find the Fair Price

We are told that in the game of rolling the colored die;

A roll of a red loses.

A roll of blue pays 5.00 and A roll of green pays 2.00.

Now, the best game to get the fairest price is to play; RRRGGB  i.e (RED, RED, RED, GREEN, GREEN,BLUE)

Fair price = 2(3/6) + 6(1/6) + 0(2/6)

Fair price = $2
