Answer:
35 hotdogs
Step-by-step explanation:
You are running a concession stand at a basketball game. You are selling hotdogs and sodas.
Let the number of hot dogs be represented by x
The number of soda be represented by y
You sold a total of 87 hotdogs and sodas combined
x + y = 87
x = 87 - y
Each hotdog cost $1.50 and each soda cost $0.50. At the end of the night you made a total of $78.50.
Hence we have the equation:
$1.50 × x + $0.50 × y = $78.50
1.50x + 0.50y = 78.50
Substitute 87 - y for x
1.50(87 - y) + 0.50y = 78.50
130.5 - 1.50y + 0.50y = 78.50
Collect like terms
- 1.50y + 0.50y = 78.50 - 130.50
-1.00y = -52
y = -52/-1
y = 52 sodas
How many hotdogs did you sell?
Using the equation:
x = 87 - y
x = 87 - 52
x = 35 hotdogs
Hence, you sold 35 hotdogs
Answer:
a. 8 gallons
b. (11-0.75t) gallons
Step-by-step explanation:
a. Here in this question, we are told that the total amount of fuel in the fuel tank is 11 gallons and the car consumes 0.75 gallon per hour. We are interested in knowing the amount of fuel left in the tank after driving for four hours.
We proceed as follows;
Since 0.75 gallon is consumed in an hour, the amount of fuel consumed in 4 hours would be the amount consumed in an hour * 4 hours
Mathematically, that would be 0.75 * 4 = 3 gallon
Now, the amount of fuel left is simply the difference between the initial amount of fuel in the tank minus the amount of fuel present after 4 hours.
That would be; 11 - 3 = 8 gallons
b. Like above, we want to know the amount of fuel left after t hours.
Since 0.75 is used up per hour, the amount used up in t hours would be 0.75 * t = 0.75t
Now, the amount of fuel that would be left in the tank would be the difference between what we had initially and what was used up.
Mathematically, that would be 11- 0.75t
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
calculate the slope m using the slope formula
m = 
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (0, 2) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (4, 0) ← 2 points on the line
m =
=
= - 
the y- intercept is the value of y where the line crosses the y- axis , then
y- intercept = 2
Remark
You have given the second best answer. Your answer is |x|<1. You should have open circles at 1 and - 1.
Solution
I have enclosed a graph that is not a number line. You could confine yourself to a number line just by tracing out the blue solution (which is the answer you want)
The red solution is what you did.
The blue solution does not include x = 1 nor does it include x = - 1. The number line would show 1 < x < ∞ and -∞ < x < -1
