At Fruits R Us, Mr. Orchard realizes that dried pineapple slices and dried apricots were two of his top dried fruit sellers. So
Rudik [331]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information given, you can write the following equations:

x+y=300 (1)

5x+8y=300*7

5x+8y=2100(2)

First, you can isolate x in (1):

x=300-y (3)

Now, you can replace (3) in (2):

5(300-y)+8y=2100

1500-5y+8y=2100

3y=2100-1500

y=600/3

y=200

Then, you can replace the value of y in (3) to find x:

x=300-200

x=100

According to this, the answer is that he should use 100 pounds of dried pineapple and 200 pounds of dried apricots.

Consider the function represented by 9x + 3y= 12 with x as the independent variable. How can this function be written
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer: f(x) = -3x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The function is represented by

9x + 3y= 12

This is a linear equation with x as the independent variable. This means that if x is the independent variable, the y is the dependent variable. The values of y depends on the values of x. In order to represent the function, 9x + 3y= 12, we would rearrange the function such that y stands alone on the left hand side of the equation. This becomes

9x + 3y= 12

Subtracting 9x from both sides,

9x -9x + 3y = 12 - 9x

3y = 12-9x

Dividing the lefthand side and right hand side of the equation by 3, it becomes

3y/3 = (12-9x)/3

y= -3x + 4

using function notation,

y = f(x) = -3x + 4

Students were surveyed about their favorite colors 1/4 preferred red, 1/8 preferred blue, 3/5 preferred green. If 15 students pr
const2013 [10]

Answer:

Let us assume the total number of students surveyed = x

Then

Number of students preferring red = x/4

Number of students preferring blue = x/8

Then

Number of students remaining = x - [(x/4) + (x/8)]

                                                  =x - [(2x + x)/8)

                                                  = x - (3x/8)

                                                  = (8x - 3x)/8

                                                  = 5x/8

Number of students preferring the color green = (3/5) * (5x/8)

                                                                          = 3x/8

We also know that the total number of students preferring the color green is 15

So

3x/8 = 15

3x = 15 * 8

x = (15 * 8)/3

  = 5 * 8

  = 40

So in total 40 students were surveyed. I hope the procedure is clear to you.
