Answer:
Per ounce better buy is <em>Happy popcorn</em>.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Happy popcorn price for 16 ounces = $1.39
Popper popcorn price for 34 ounces = $2.79
Discount coupon present with Gabe = 40 ¢ = $0.40
To find:
Which brand is the better buy per ounce?
Solution:
First of all, let us calculate the price that Gabe has to pay after the discount coupon being applied.
Price for 16 ounces of Happy popcorn after discount = $1.29 - $0.40 = $0.99
Price for 1 ounce of Happy popcorn after discount =
= $0.062
Price for 34 ounces of Popper popcorn after discount = $2.79 - $0.40 = $2.39
Price for 1 ounce of Popper popcorn after discount =
= $0.070
Clearly, per ounce price of Happy popcorn is lesser than that of Popper popcorn.
Therefore per ounce better buy is <em>Happy popcorn</em>.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Okay, so I think I know what the equations are, but I might have misinterpreted them because of the syntax- I think when you ask a question you can use the symbols tool to input it in a more clear way, otherwise you can use parentheses and such.
Problem 1:
(x²)/4 +y²= 1
y= x+1
*substitute for y*
Now we have a one-variable equation we can solve-
x²/4 + (x+1)² = 1
x²/4 + (x+1)(x+1)= 1
x²/4 + x²+2x+1= 1
*subtract 1 from both sides to set equal to 0*
x²/4 +x^2+2x=0
x²/4 can also be 1/4 * x²
1/4 * x² +1*x² +2x = 0
*combine like terms*
5/4 * x^2+2x+ 0 =0
now, you can use the quadratic equation to solve for x
a= 5/4
b= 2
c=0
the syntax on this will be rough, but I'll do my best...
x= (-b ± √(b²-4ac))/(2a)
x= (-2 ±√(2²-4*(5/4)*(0))/(2*(5/4))
x= (-2 ±√(4-0))/(2.5)
x= (-2±2)/2.5
x will have 2 answers because of ±
x= 0 or x= 1.6
now plug that back into one of the equations and solve.
y= 0+1 = 1
y= 1.6+1= 2.6
Hopefully this explanation was enough to help you solve problem 2.
Problem 2:
x² + y² -16y +39= 0
y²- x² -9= 0
Answer:
468
Step-by-step explanation:
Formula for infinite sum of geometric series is;
S_∞ = a1/(1 - r)
Where;
a1 is first term
r is common ratio
We are given;
a1 = 156
r = ⅔
Thus;
S_∞ = 156/(1 - ⅔)
S_∞ = 156/(⅓)
S_∞ = 468
Answer:
42
Step-by-step explanation:
It's just a distribution property where the given value of each variables (a, b, c, d) are being distributed to the given equation:
7a2-3ac+d2
7(2)(2) - 3(2)(-3) + (-2)(2)
28 + 18 - 4 = 42
