Answer:

Let x = the unknown cost of a single hot dog and y = the unknown cost of a single soft drink. We have two unknowns so we need two equations to find them.

Equation 1 - 10 hot dogs and 5 soft drinks cost $35; that is 10x + 5y = 35

Equation 2 - 7 hot dogs and 4 soft drinks cost $25.25; that is 7x + 4y = 25.25

First let's re-write equation 1 to solve for y:

10x + 5y = 35

5y = 35 - 10x (subtract 10x from both sides)

y = 7 - 2x (divide both sides by 5)

Next, let's substitute 7 - 2x for y in equation 2:

7x + 4y = 25.25

7x + 4(7-2x) = 25.25

7x + 28 - 8x = 25.25

-x + 28 = 25.25

x - 28 = -25.25

Solve for x, the cost of a single hot dog. Once you have that, use y = 7 - 2x to find the cost of a single soft drink.

N is inversely proportional to t and when t is 36 ,N is176 .
sergeinik [125]

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

N is inversely proportional to t, therefore:

N ∝ 1/t

Let k be the constant of proportionality, hence we can replace the relationship by:

N = k/t

Given that when t is 36, N is 176. Therefore we can find the value of k:

176 = k / 36

k = 176 * 36 = 6336

N = 6336/t

Also let us find N when t = 6. This is done by substituting t = 6 into the equation and simplifying:

N = 6336/6

N = 1056

Could someone help here, thankyou!
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

x = 6 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given ratio of sides of similar figures = a : b , then

ratio of areas = a² : b²

Here ratio of areas = 5 : 45 = 1 : 9 , so

ratio of sides = \sqrt{1} : \sqrt{9} = 1 : 3

Thus side of B is 3 times side of A

x = 3 × 2 = 6 cm

The length of a swimming pool is 3 feet longer than it’s width. The swimming pool is surrounded by a deck that is 2 feet wide an
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

The Length of swimming pool is 8.35 feet

The width of swimming pool is 5.35 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The length of swimming pool is 3 feet longer that its width

Let The width of swimming pool = w  feet

So, The Length of swimming pool = L = (w + 3) feet

Now, The swimming pool is surrounded by deck of 2 feet wide

The width of deck = w' = w + 2 + 2 = (w + 4) feet

The area of deck = 116 feet²

The length of deck = L' = L + 2 + 2 = (L + 4) feet

So, L' = (w + 3 + 4) feet

I.e L' = (w + 7) feet

∵ The area of deck = 116 feet²

So , L' × w' = 116 feet²

(w + 7)× (w + 4) = 116

Or, w² + 4 w + 7 w + 28 = 116

Or, w² + 11 w - 88 = 0

Solving the quadratic equation as

ax² + bx + c = 0

So, w = \dfrac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^{2}-4\times a\times c}}{2\times a}

Or, w = \dfrac{-11\pm \sqrt{11^{2}-4\times 1\times (-88)}}{2\times 1}

Or, w = \dfrac{-11\pm \sqrt{473}}{2}

or, w = \dfrac{-11\pm 21.7}{2}

or, w = 5.35 , -16.35

The width of swimming pool = w = 5.35 feet

The Length of swimming pool = L = (5.35 + 3) feet = 8.35 feet

Hence, The Length of swimming pool is 8.35 feet

And The width of swimming pool is 5.35 feet

Find the coordinates of the endpoint of the image?
ra1l [238]

Given:

The graph of a line segment.

The line segment AB translated by the following rule:

(x,y)\to (x+4,y-3)

To find:

The coordinates of the end points of the line segment A'B'.

Solution:

From the given figure, it is clear that the end points of the line segment AB are A(-2,-3) and B(4,-1).

We have,

(x,y)\to (x+4,y-3)

Using this rule, we get

A(-2,-3)\to A'(-2+4,-3-3)

A(-2,-3)\to A'(2,-6)

Similarly,

B(4,-1)\to B'(4+4,-1-3)

B(4,-1)\to B'(8,-4)

Therefore, the endpoint of the line segment A'B' are A'(2,-6) and B'(8,-4).
