Answer:

The D cells are worth $2.20, and the C cells are worth $1.90.

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be written as:

4x + 2y = 12.60

6x + 4y =20.80

Our goal is to find one variable, then use that information to find the other.

If we multiply the top function by -1.5, we get:

-6x - 3y = -18.90

We can add this to the previous equation.

  -6x - 3y = -18.90

+ 6x + 4y = 20.80

--------------------------

             y = 1.90

The C cells are worth $1.90.

Plug this value into one of the other equations and solve for x.

4x + 2y = 12.60  

4x + 2(1.90) = 12.60

4x + 3.80 = 12.60  

4x = 8.80

x = 2.20

The D cells are worth $2.20.

Check these values in the other equation.

6x + 4y = 20.80

6(2.20) + 4(1.90) = 20.80

13.20 + 7.60 = 20.80

20.80 = 20.80

Answer:

  C = $1.90 each

  D = $2.20 each

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

  Power pack A:   4D + 2C = 12.60

  Power pack B:   6D + 4C = 20.80

Isolate any one variable:

  4D + 2C = 12.60

  4D = 12.60 - 2C

  D = 3.15 - 0.5C

Substitution to find cost of C cell battery:

  6D + 4C = 20.80

  6(3.15 - 0.5C) + 4C = 20.80

  18.9 - 3C + 4C = 20.80

  18.9 + C = 20.80

  C = 1.90

Substitution to find cost of D cell battery:

  4D + 2C = 12.60

  4D + 2(1.90) = 12.60

  4D + 3.8 = 12.60

  4D = 8.8

  D = 2.20

What is the area of the triangle?<br> 9 4 12
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

  13.636

Step-by-step explanation:

The area can be found using Heron's formula:

  A = √(s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c))

where s=(a+b+c)/2.

For the given triangle, ...

  a=9, b=4, c=12, s=(9+4+12)/2 = 12.5

  A = √(12.5(3.5)(8.5)(0.5)) = √185.9375 ≈ 13.636

The area of the triangle is about 13.636 square units.

Mrs.Anderson is giving a test in her third period class she has decided to record the amount of time that each student takes to
ICE Princess25 [194]

The graph Plot of the given results shown represents; A relation only

<h3>How to interpret a scatter plot?</h3>

For it to be a function, then no x-value can produce more than 2 y-values. However, we see that at x = 25, y has 2 values. Similarly, at x = 15, y has two values.

Thus, the graph plot can only be a relation as it is not a function as seen from the points plotted in the graph.

The complete question is;

Mrs. Anderton is giving a test in her third-period class. She has decided to record the amount of time that each student takes to finish the test (in minutes) and compare that to the grade each student receives on the test (out of 100). A plot of her results is below. Which of the following does this situation represent?

A. both a relation and a function

B. a function only

C. neither a relation nor a function

D. a relation only
