Bailey brought a twin pack of gum for $2, this is 50 cents less than 2/3 the
cost of a triple pack of gum. What is the price of a triple pack of gum?

Let x represent a twin pack of gum

Let y represent a triple pack of gum

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

$3.75

Step-by-step explanation:

2/3 = $2.50

2.50/2 = 1.25

1.25x3 = 3.75

Answer 2

The price of the triple pack of gum is $3.75.

Calculation of the price:

Since Bailey brought a twin pack of gum for $2, this is 50 cents less than 2/3 the cost of a triple pack of gum.

So,

[tex]2\div 3 = \$2.50\\\\2.50\div 2 = 1.25\\\\1.25\times 3 = 3.75[/tex]

find the equation of a line which passes through (2 4) with a slope of ½​

Answers

Answer:

The equation of the straight line is  x - 2y +6 =0

Step-by-step explanation:

Explanation:-

Given a point ( 2, 4) and slope m =  [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

The equation of the straight line passing through the point and having slope 'm'

          y - y₁ = m ( x - x₁)

           y - 4 = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] ( x - 2)

          2( y -4) = ( x-2)

          2 y - 8 = x -2

          x - 2 y - 2 + 8 =0

          x - 2y + 6 =0

The equation of the straight line is  x - 2y +6 =0

The answer is:

y = 1/2x + 5

Work/explanation:

Since I have a point and the slope, I will write the equation in point slope form.

Point slope is

[tex]\sf{y-y_1=m(x-x_1)}[/tex]

where m = slope and (x₁, y₁) is a point on the line

Plug in the data

[tex]\sf{y-4=\dfrac{1}{2}(x-2)}[/tex]

Now let's simplify to slope intercept

                    [tex]\large\begin{gathered}\sf{y-4=\dfrac{1}{2}x+1}\\\sf{y=\dfrac{1}{2}x+1+4}\\\sf{y=\dfrac{1}{2}x+5}\end{gathered}[/tex]

Hence, the equation is y = 1/2x + 5.

A truck driver has a route that takes him 125 miles each way each day that he works. If he makes 15 roundtrips on this route per month, how many miles does he drive the truck per month?

Answers

Answer: 3,750 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Route takes him 125 miles each way so in a day he travels:

= 125 + 125

= 250 miles

He made 15 roundtrips so total miles is:

= 15 * 250

= 3,750 miles

x+y=180
x=10y+48
(With Steps Plz)

Answers

Answer:

(168,12)

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute x = 10y+48 in the first equation.

[tex]10y + 48 + y = 180 \\ 11y = 180 - 48 \\ 11y = 132 \\ y = \frac{132}{11} \\ y = 12[/tex]

We have got the y-value. Our next goal is to find the x-value by substituting y-value in any given equations.

For me, I will be substituting y = 12 in the first equation.

[tex]x + 12 = 180 \\ x = 180 - 12 \\ x = 168[/tex]

Answer Check

Substitute both x-value and y-value in both equations.

[tex]168 + 12 = 180 \\ 180 = 180[/tex]

Our first equation is true for both values.

[tex]168 = 10(12) + 48 \\ 168 = 120 + 48 \\ 168 = 168[/tex]

Our second equation is true for both values.

Thus, the answer is (168, 12)

Triangle ABC is rotated 180 degrees around point B and then dilated to form triangle DBE as shown.

с

D

A

B

E

Which postulate or theorem establishes that the triangles are similar?

Answers

Answer:

AA similarity

Step-by-step explanation:

Your question is not well presented.

See attachment

Given

Triangles ABC and DBE

Required

Which postulate supports the similarities of ABC and DBE

At the first transformation (180 degrees rotation) both triangles maintain SSS and AAA relationships. i.e Side-Side-Side and Angle-Angle-Angle

This is so because rotations do not alter the side lengths; neither does it alter the angles.

When the second transformation (dilation) takes place, the lengths of both triangles ABC and DBE become different because dilation alters side lengths.

However, angle measurements remain unaltered.

Hence, AAA similarity answers the question

A local food truck specializes in gourmet grilled cheese sandwiches. Each month, the owners of the truck have a constant total of $7,900 in expenses (salaries, truck loan, etc.) and it costs $1.70 per sandwich to make each sandwich. The food truck sells its sandwiches for $7.75 each.

Answers

Answer:

Results are below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Giving the following information:

Fixed costs= $7,900

Unitary cost per sandwich= $1.7

Selling price per unit= $7.75

To calculate the break-even point in units and dollars, we need to use the following formula:

Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit

Break-even point in units= 7,900 / (7.75 - 1.7)

Break-even point in units= 1,306 sandwiches

Break-even point (dollars)= fixed costs/ contribution margin ratio

Break-even point (dollars)= 7,900 / (6.05 / 7.75)

Break-even point (dollars)= $10,120

The base of 40-foot ladder is 8 feet from the wall. How high is the ladder on the wall (round to the nearest foot)

Answers

Given:

The base of 40-foot ladder is 8 feet from the wall.

To find:

How high is the ladder on the wall (round to the nearest foot).

Solution:

Ladder makes a right angle triangle with wall and ground.

We have,

Length of ladder (hypotenuse)= 40 foot

Base = 8 foot

We need to find the perpendicular to get the height of the ladder on the wall.

Let h be the height of the ladder on the wall.

According to the Pythagoras theorem,

[tex]Hypotenuse^2=Base^2+Perpendicular^2[/tex]

[tex](40)^2=(8)^2+(h)^2[/tex]

[tex]1600=64+h^2[/tex]

[tex]1600-64=h^2[/tex]

[tex]1536=h^2[/tex]

Taking square root on both sides.

[tex]\pm \sqrt{1536}=h[/tex]

[tex]\pm 39.1918358=h[/tex]

Height cannot be negative. Round to the nearest foot.

[tex]h\approx 39[/tex]

Therefore, the height of the ladder on the wall is 39 foot.

Which statements are true about the ordered pair (−1, 5) and the system of equations?

Answers

Answer:

Option D is correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the system of equations:

[tex]x+y=4\\x-y=-6[/tex]

Solving the system of equations to find values of x and y

Let:

[tex]x+y=4--eq(1)\\x-y=-6--eq(2)[/tex]

Adding both equations to find value of x

[tex]x+y=4\\x-y=-6\\------\\2x=-2\\x=\frac{-2}{2}\\x=-1[/tex]

So, we get value of x: x=-1

Now, putting value of x: x=-1 into equation 1 to find value of y

[tex]x+y=4\\Putx=-1\\-1+y=4\\y=4+1\\y=5[/tex]

So, we get value of y: y=5

The ordered pair will be: (-1,5)

So, Option D: The ordered pair(-1,5) is a a solution to the system of equations because it makes both equations true is correct choice.

Checking:

Put x=-1 and y=5 in equation 1

[tex]x+y=4\\-1+5=4\\4=4\:True[/tex]

Put x=-1 and y=5 in equation 2

[tex]x-y=-6-1-5=-6\\-6=-6\:\:\:True[/tex]

So, both equations are true.

Therefore, Option D is correct answer.
