The elves and reindeer are getting ready for a meeting with Santa.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Feliz [49]2 years ago
3 0

Let e and r be the number of elves and reindeers, respectively.

We know that:

r+e=14 (so far 14 of them have arrived)

4r+2e = 38(each reindeer has 4 legs and each elf has two)

If we multiply the first equation by 2 we have 2r+2e=28, and if we subtract this equation from the second we have 2r=10 which implies r=5.

So, there are 5 reindeers and 9 elves (remember that they have to sum up to 14).

Which graph below represents a functional relationship? A. 10 10 8 8 6 6 4 2 2 X 10864 6 8 10 10 8 6 4 4 6 8 10 -21 4 -61 -8 -8
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

Graph (C)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find whether the graph\table represents a relationship or a function we have to analyze the input-output values given.

Graph A.

In this graph for every input value (x-value) there are two output values (y-values).

For x = -2, y = -2, 2

So the graph doesn't represent a function.

Graph B.

For every x value there are two y-values

For x = -5, y = -3, 3

So the graph doesn't represent a function.

Graph C.

For every input value there is a different y-value.

Therefore, graph represents a function.

Graph D.

In this graph for x = 3, y = 1, 2, 3, 4

For one value of x, there are four values of y.

Therefore, graph doesn't show the relationship.

Kara travels at a constant speed of 72 miles per 2 hours. At this rate, how far does she travel after 6.5 hours?
dybincka [34]

Answer:

234 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the miles per hour, divide 72 by 2 and that equals 36. So 36 miles every hour. So then do 36 × 6 which equals 216. So this is 216 miles in 6 hours, but you still need 0.5 of an hour, so to find how far she travels in 0.5 of an hour, divide the amount she travels in one hour by two. So 36 ÷ 2 which equals 18. So she travels 18 miles every 0.5 of an hour. Then add 18 to the 216 which equals 234.

Hope This Helps!!!

Juliet rented a car for one day from a company that charges $80 per day plus $0.15 per mile driven. If she was charged a total o
svlad2 [7]

Answer:

B) 120

Step-by-step explanation:

m = miles

$98=$80+$0.15m

$98-$80=$80-$80+$0.15m

$18=$0.15m

$18/$0.15=$0.15m/$0.15

120=m

Juliet drove 120 miles for $98.

(this is a good explanation, I guess)
