If this were to be graphed, the independent variable would be the price of the ticket for the rides. The dependent variable would be the total cost.
The fair admission is not a variable because it is a constant price for every single person who goes into the fair.
The problem asks to use y to represent the total cost and x to represent the number of ride tickets. In order to fully write out the equation, we have to figure out what the fair admission costs.
43.75 = 1.25(25) + b
*b represents the fair admission
Multiply 1.25 by 25
43.75 = 31.25 + b
Subtract 31.25 to find what b costs.
12.50 = b
The fair admission costs $12.50.
Solution: y = 1.25x + 12.50
Answer: a. p = c/5 - 43 b. 17 people
Step-by-step explanation:
c= 5p + 215
A) a said solve for p so we will solve for p in the equation.
c= 5p + 215 First Subtract 215 from both sides
-215 -215
c - 215 = 5p Now divide both sides by 5.
p = c/5 - 43
B) If c is the total cost of hosting a birthday party then we will input 300 into the equation for c and solve for p.
300 = 5p + 215 First subtract 215 from both sides
-215 -215
85 = 5p Divide both sides by 5
p = 17
This means 17 people can attend the meeting if Allies parents are willing to spend $300.
Answer:
To most closely estimate the difference, I would round 62,980 to the nearest thousand, so it will be 63,000. That is because when rounding, 63,000 is large enough so that adding will be easy, and 62,980 is relatively close to 63,000.
I would round 49,625 to the nearest thousand, since it would make the subtraction easier and 49,625 is only 375 units away from 50,000.
63,000 - 50,000 = about 13,000.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
There needs to be 300 liters of Drink A and 270 liters of Drink B
Step-by-step explanation:
Let a = the amount of Drink A and b = the amount of Drink B
Multiplying a number by 0.2 is the same as calculating 20% of it and same goes with 15% and 0.15. This makes our equation for the amount of fruit juice:
0.2a + 0.15b = 100.5
We know what the difference between a and b will be 30 liters so:
a - b = 30
Now we have our system of equations
To cancel out a, we can multiply the first equation by -5 so we will now have:
-a - 0.75b = -502.5
a - b = 30
Adding these two equations together, we get:
-1.75b = -472.5
Both sides are negative, so we can take the negative signs away.
1.75b = 472.5
Now divide both sides by 1.75
b = 270
Plugging 270 into b, we have:
a - b = 30
a - 270 = 30
Add 270 to both sides
a = 300
There needs to be 300 liters of Drink A and 270 liters of Drink B
