We put the information above in a table as shown below
The number of bread available is 120, so the first constraint is
The number of cheese available is 160 slices, so the second constraint is
The next constraint is the profit
The reciprocal of a number x is 1/x.
Let x = 1000
The reciprocal is 1/1000.
Okay. So, she buoyant 5.65 lbs of roast beef for $4.50. Multiply both of those numbers to get 25.425 or 25.43 when rounded to the nearest hundredth. So the total cost was $25.43. However, we now have to divide the amount by 6.5. 25.43/6.5 is 3.912 and other odd numbers or 3.91 when rounded to the nearest hundredth. The cost per sandwich was $3.91.
Answer:
She went on the slide 8 times and on the roller coaster 4 times
Step-by-step explanation:
We convert each statements to a mathematical equation.
Firstly, let's represent the number of times she went on the coaster with R and the number of times on the slide with S. We know quite well she went on 12 rides. Hence the summation of both number of times yield 12.
Mathematically, R + S = 12. ........(i)
Now we also know her total wait time was 3hours. Since an hour equals 60 minutes, her total wait time would equal 180 minutes.
To get a mathematical representation for the wait time, we multiply the number of roller coaster rides by 25 and that of the slides by 10.
Mathematically, 25R + 10S = 180 .......(ii)
Here we now have two equations that we can solve simultaneously.
From equation 1 we can say R = 12 - S. We can then substitute this into equation 2 to yield the following:
25(12 - s) + 10s = 180
300 - 25s + 10s = 180
300 - 25s + 10s = 180
300 - 15s = 180
15s = 300 - 180
15s = 120
S = 120/15
S = 8
S = 8 , and R = 12 - S = 12 - 8 = 4
The x-intercept is when y = 0
y = x - 5 → 0 = x - 5 → x = 5
The y-intercept is when x = 0
y = x - 5 → y = 0 - 5 → y = - 5
Answer: x-intercept is (5, 0), y-intercept is (0, -5)
