A sporting goods store sells right-handed and left-handed baseball gloves. In one month, 12 gloves were sold for a total revenue

stepladder [879]

Answer:

$9$ right-handed gloves and $3$ left-handed gloves were sold.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: In one month, $12$ gloves were sold for a total revenue of $\$561$ .

right-handed gloves cost $\$45$ and left-handed gloves cost $\$52$ .

To find: How much of each type of gloves did they sell?

Solution: Let they sell $x$ right-handed gloves, and $y$ left-handed gloves.

Now, cost of each right-handed gloves $=\$45$

cost of each left-handed gloves $=\$52$

Total revenue $=\$561$

So, we get

$45x+52y=561\:\:\:...(i)$

Also, in a month $12$ gloves were sold.

So, we get

$x+y=12\:\:\:...(ii)$

Now, from $(ii)$ we get, $x=12-y$ .

Putting $x=12-y$ in equation $(i)$ , we get

$45(12-y)+52y=561$

$\implies 540-45y+52y=561$

$\implies7y=561-540$

$\implies7y=21$

$\implies y=\frac{21}{7}$

$\implies y=3$

Now, putting $y=3$ in equation $(ii)$ , we get

$x+3=12$

$\implies x=12-3$

$\implies x=9$

Hence, $9$ right-handed gloves and $3$ left-handed gloves were sold.

If a line has a slope of 4 and goes through the point open parentheses short dash 1 comma 1 close parentheses, then the equation

san4es73 [151]

A line is a one-dimensional shape that is straight, has no thickness, and extends in both directions indefinitely. The equation of the line will be y =4x+5. Thus, the correct option is C.

<h3>What is the equation of a line?</h3>

A line is a one-dimensional shape that is straight, has no thickness, and extends in both directions indefinitely. The equation of a line is given by,

y =mx + c

where,

x is the coordinate of the x-axis,

y is the coordinate of the y-axis,

m is the slope of the line, and

c is the y-intercept.

Given the slope of the line is 4 and it goes through (-1,1), therefore, the equation of the line will be,

y = mx + c

y = 4x + c

Substitute the value of points,

1 = 4(-1) + c

1 = -4 + c

5 = c

Hence, the equation of the line will be y =4x+5. Thus, the correct option is C.

Aaron ran 5/8 mile to his friend's house. Then he ran another 1/4 mile to the park.

Strike441 [17]

Complete question : Aaron ran 5/8 mile to his friend's house. Then he ran another 1/4 mile to the park. Find Aaron's total miles ran?

Answer:

7/8 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Distance to friend's house = 5/8 miles

Then, Distance to park = 1/4 miles

Total. Distance ran :

(5/8 + 1/4)

L.C.M of 4 and 8 = 8

(5 + 2) / 8 = 7/8 miles

Total distance ran = 7/8 miles
