Two friends Ana and Juan are buying books by joining the History Book

Mathematics
1 answer:
Travka [436]3 years ago

Answer:

Ana  spent $17  per book on average.

Juan  spent $14.78  per book on average.

y = $15 + 17x--------- equation 1

y= $10 + 14.78 x------------- equation 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Ana has to pay a yearly fee of $15 to join.

She spends a total of $525 for 30 books.

The amount spent on books = Total amount - yearly fee

                                                 = $525- $15= $510

Price per book on the average = $510/30= $ 17

Ana  spent $17  per book on average.

Juan has to pay a yearly fee of $10 to join.

He spends a total of $350 for 23 books.

The amount spent on books = Total amount - yearly fee

                                                 = $350- $10= $340

Price per book on the average = $340/23= $ 14.78≅ $15

Juan  spent $14.78  per book on average.

The function can be established if y gives the total cost and x gives the number of books

y = $15 + 17x--------- equation 1

y= $10 + 14.78 x------------- equation 2

Juan has a better deal because the yearly fee is less also the price per book is less.

The table includes points on a quadratic function used to model the shape of a hole for one support beam at a new building site.
erastovalidia [21]

The hole is 8 feet deep at ground level ⇒ 3rd answer

Step-by-step explanation:

The form of the quadratic function is y = ax² + bx + c, where

  • a is the coefficient of x²
  • b is the coefficient of x
  • c is the y-intercept (at x = 0)

The vertex point of the quadratic is (h , k), where h=\frac{-b}{2a}

and k is the value of y when x = h

The table:

→  x  :  -2   ,  0  ,  2

→  y  :  -6   , -8  ,  -6

∵ x represents distance from hole's center in feet

∵ y represents the depth from level ground

∴ The quadratic function is y = ax² + bx + c

∵ c is the value of y at x = 0 ⇒ y-intercept

- From the table at x = 0 ⇒ y = -8

∴ c = -8

- Substitute its value in the function model

∴ y = ax² + bx - 8

- To find the values of a and b substitute x and y in the model by

   the coordinates of the point in the table

∵ x = -2 and y = -6

∴ -6 = a(-2)² + b(-2) - 8

∴ -6 = 4a - 2b - 8

- Add 8 to both sides

∴ 2 = 4a - 2b

- Switch the two sides

∴ 4a - 2b = 2 ⇒ (1)

∵ x = 2 and y = -6

∴ -6 = a(2)² + b(2) - 8

∴ -6 = 4a + 2b - 8

- Add 8 to both sides

∴ 2 = 4a + 2b

- Switch the two sides

∴ 4a + 2b = 2 ⇒ (2)

Now we have a system of equation to solve it

Add equations(1) and (2) to eliminate b

∵ 8a = 4

- Divide both sides by 8

∴ a = 0.5

- Substitute value of a in equation (1) or to to find b

∵ 4(0.5) + 2b = 2

∴ 2 + 2b = 2

- Subtract 2 from both sides

∴ 2b = 0

- Divide both sides by 2

∴ b = 0

Substitute the values of a and b in the function model

∴ y = 0.5x² + (0)x - 8

∴ y = 0.5x² - 8

∵ y represents the depth from level ground

∵ The vertex of the function model is (h , k)

∴ The deep of the hole at ground level is the value of k

∵ h=\frac{-b}{2a}

∴ h=\frac{-(0)}{2(0.5)}

∴ h = 0

∵ k is the value of y when x = h

- From the table at x = 0 ⇒ y = -8

∴ k = -8

- Ignore the sign (-) because the k represents the depth of the

  hole in feet

∴ The deep of the hole at ground level is 8 feet

The hole is 8 feet deep at ground level

Please solve <br><br> ??+1/16=3/2
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

x = 23/16

Step-by-step explanation:

x + 1/16 = 3/2

Get a common denominator

x + 1/16 = 3/2 *8/8

x + 1/16 = 24/16

Subtract 1/16 from each side

x+1/16 -1/16 = 24/16 -1/16

x = 23/16

How to simplify integers
lina2011 [118]
I don't think that you can. Integers are either positive or negative real numbers without decimals, so there isn't anything to simplify.
