Answer:
Q1:14 Q2:8903.5
Step-by-step explanation:
I find that using equations to solve problems makes it a lot easier.
The first company's equation would be y=5743+225.75x because 5743 is the set fee and 225.75 is for each ton of sugar. The second company would be y=7500+100.25x for the same reasons.
So we need to find a value of x that works for each company and a value of y that is the same for the cost.
Now we combine them.
Solve for x:
5743+225.75x=7500+100.25x
-5743 -5743
225.75x= 1757+100.25x
-100.25x -100.25x
125.50x=1757
/125.5 /125.5
x=14
Therefore, for Q1, the answer is 14.
Now we solve for y by substituting x for 14.
5743+225.75(14)
5743+3160.5
8903.5
We can also check this with the other equation
7500+100.25(14)
7500+1403.5
8903.5
So therefore, the answer to Q2 would be 8903.5.
Given:
Short sides of a rectangle = 2 inches.
Area of the rectangle = 22 square inches.
The long sides of the same rectangle are three less than an unknown number of inches.
To find:
The unknown number.
Solution:
Let x be the unknown number. Then the longer side of the rectangle is (x-3) inches.
We know that the area of a rectangle is
The area of the rectangle is 22 square inches.
Divide both sides by 2.
Add 3 on both sides.
Therefore, the value of the unknown number is 14.
Answer:
9
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio is 1/2 so the next term would always be half of the previous one.
- 72 times 1/2 is 36
-36 times 1/2 is 18
-18 times 1/2 is 9. So the answer is 9
