Answer:

First number: 20

Second number: 30

Step-by-step explanation:

First#:   x

Second#:   y

Constraints:

   x + y = 50      

   1/4x + 2/3y = 25

Isolate variable y:

   x + y = 50    

  -1/4 (x + y = 50 )

 -1/4x - 1/4y = -12.5

  Add equations the two equations to eliminate x:

    -1/4x - 1/4y = -12.5

     1/4x + 2/3y = 25

  _________________

       5/12y = 12.5

           5y = 150

              y = 30

Substitution to find x:

       x + y = 50  

       x + 30 = 50

              x = 20

Which of the following describes the “p/2” in the expression above?
julia-pushkina [17]

Option B. Quotient is the right answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Given expression is:

p/2 +4(7+p)

Let us look at the options one by one

<u>A. factor</u>

p/2 is not a factor as the factor is always multiplied with another factor

<u>B. quotient</u>

This is the right answer as p is being divided by 2. The quotient of both will be used for further calculations

Hence,

Option B. Quotient is the right answer

Juan pays a one-time fee of $30.
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A. c=30+45(h)

B. 30+45(6.5)= 30+292.50= 322.50

He pays a set rate of $30.00. He also pays a charge of $45 an hour for work. The electrician worked 6.5 hours. Take the 45 and multiply that by the 6.5 hours to get $292.50. Take that charge and add the set fee of $30. You get a total of $322.50 he will pay for the electrician.

Multiply (5x2 + x − 4)(x + 2).
Trava [24]
(x + 2)(5x^2 + x - 4) =
x(5x^2 + x - 4) + 2(5x^2 + x - 4) =
5x^3 + x^2 - 4x + 10x^2 + 2x - 8 =
5x^3 + 11x^2 - 2x - 8 <===

Type the correct answer in the box.
Pepsi [2]

Answer:

f(g(-64)) = -190

Step-by-step explanation:

The functions are not well written.

Let us assume;

f(x) = x+1

g(x) = 3x+1

f(g(x)) = f(3x+1)

Replace x with 3x+1 in f(x)

f(g(x)) = (3x+1) + 1

f(g(x)) = 3x + 2

f(g(-64)) = 3(-64) + 2

f(g(-64)) = -192+2

f(g(-64)) = -190

<em>Note that the functions are assumed but same method can be employed when calculating composite functions</em>
