Andrea has $18 to spend. She spent $6.50, including tax, to buy a notebook. She needs to save $5.75, but she wants to buy a snac

k. If candy bars cost $1.15 per package including tax, what inequality would show the maximum number of packages that Andrea can buy? Solve your inequality by showing your work and steps. (10 points)

Answer:

The number of candy packages is going to be represented by the variable c.

6.50 – 5.75

18 – 6.5 - 1.15c ≥ 5.75

11.5 - 1.15c ≥ 5.75

Subtract 11.5 from both sides

-1.15c ≥ -5.75

Divide both sides by -1.15 and flip the sign.

You answer be c ≤ 5

Answer:

a) the common difference is 20

b) $x_8=115 , x_{12}=195$

c) the common difference is -13

d) $a_{12}=52, a_{15}=13$

Step-by-step explanation:

a) what is the common difference of the sequence xn

Looking at the table, we get x_3=16, x_4=36 and x_5= 56

Deterring the common difference by subtracting x_4 from x_3 we get

36-16 =20

So, the common difference is 20

b) what is x_8? what is x_12

The formula used is: $x_n=x_1+(n-1)d$

We know common difference d= 20, we need to find $x_1$

Using $x_3=16$ we can find $x_1$

$x_n=x_1+(n-1)d\\x_3=x_1+(3-1)d\\15=x_1+2(20)\\15=x_1+40\\x_1=15-40\\x_1=-25$

So, We have $x_1 = -25$

Now finding $x_8$

$x_n=x_1+(n-1)d\\x_8=x_1+(8-1)d\\x_8=-25+7(20)\\x_8=-25+140\\x_8=115$

So, $\mathbf{x_8=115}$

Now finding $x_{12}$

$x_n=x_1+(n-1)d\\x_{12}=x_1+(12-1)d\\x_{12}=-25+11(20)\\x_{12}=-25+220\\x_{12}=195$

So, $\mathbf{x_{12}=195}$

c) what is the common difference of the sequence $a_m$

Looking at the table, we get a_7=104, a_8=91 and a_9= 78

Deterring the common difference by subtracting a_7 from a_8 we get

91-104 =-13

So, the common difference is -13

d) what is a_12? what is a_15?

The formula used is: $a_n=a_1+(n-1)d$

We know common difference d= -13, we need to find $a_1$

Using $a_7=104$ we can find $x_1$

$a_n=a_1+(n-1)d\\a_7=a_1+(7-1)d\\104=a_1+7(-13)\\104=a_1-91\\a_1=104+91\\a_1=195$

So, We have $a_1 = 195$

Now finding $a_{12}$ , put n=12

$a_n=a_1+(n-1)d\\a_{12}=a_1+(12-1)d\\a_{12}=195+11(-13)\\a_{12}=195-143\\a_{12}=52$

So, $\mathbf{a_{12}=52}$

Now finding $a_{15}$ , put n=15

$a_n=a_1+(n-1)d\\a_{15}=a_1+(15-1)d\\a_{15}=195+14(-13)\\a_{15}=195-182\\a_{15}=13$

So, $\mathbf{a_{15}=13}$

If your car gets 28 miles per gallon, how much does it cost to drive 350 miles when gasoline costs $2.50 per gallon?

Elan Coil [88]

350 / 28 = 12.5 gallons, so 13 gallons needed

13 X 2.5 = $32.50

Find the missing side of each triangle. i need help!!!

Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

√161 yd

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

We're given a right triangle (notice the right angle), the measure of one of the legs (one of the sides that make up the right angle) as 8 yd, and the hypotenuse (the side opposite to the right angle) as 15 yd.

We need to find x, which is the other leg in the triangle

If we are given 2 sides and need to find a third, we can use Pythagorean Theorem, which states that a²+b²=c² if a and b are legs and c is the hypotenuse

In this case, a=8, b=x, and c=15

So let's substitute those values into the formula

(8)²+x²=(15)²

raise everything to the second power

64+x²=225

subtract 64 from both sides

x²=161

take the square root of both x and 161

x=√161, x=-√161

-√161 cannot work in this case, as distance cannot be negative.

The question asks for the answer to be in simplified radical form, but √161 cannot be simplified down further

so the answer is <u>√161 yd</u>

Hope this helps! :)

What is 2/5 plus 1/3

leva [86]

First, you need to get the denominators (the bottom number) the same. The smallest number to get them to is 15.

So, what you need to do is take 2/5 and multiply the bottom by 3 to get 15, and since you did it to the bottom, you need to do it to the top too. So you would get, 6/15.

Then, for 1/3, take the bottom number and multiply it by 5. Then, since you did it to the bottom, do it to the top as well. You would get 5/15.

Then, you need to put them side by side. You don't add the bottom, so your denominator would remain 15, but your numerator (top) would get added.

<u> 6</u> + <u>5</u> = <u>11</u>
15 15 15
