Ali wants to surprise his wife Sara by presenting her some flowers, when he returns back from a work tour. He plans to spend exactly $24 on a bunch of exactly two dozen flowers. Sara loves lilies, roses and daisies. At the flower market they are selling lilies for $3 each, roses for $2 each, and daisies $0.50 each. How many flowers of each type can Ali buy?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

he can buy 8 of lilies and 12 of rose and 48 of daisies

Answer 2

Ali can buy 3 flowers of lilies, 3 flowers of roses, and 18 flowers of daisies.

Suppose Ali buys x flowers of lilies, y flowers of roses, and z flowers of daisies.

According to the question

x+y+z = 24......(1)

3x+2y+0.5z = 24.......(2)

Here, we have three variables but only two equations.

2(2)-(1) gives, 5x+3y = 24......(3)

Since, x, y and z can take only integer values.

What are integers?

Numbers that are not fractions called integers.

So, from (3) only x=3 and y=3 is possible

So, z= 24-x-y

z=24-3-3 = 18

So, Ali can buy 3 flowers of lilies, 3 flowers of roses, and 18 flowers of daisies.

Therefore, Ali can buy 3 flowers of lilies, 3 flowers of roses, and 18 flowers of daisies.

A jogger burned 96 calories during 8 minutes of jogging. At that rate, how
many calories would be burned during 14 minutes of jogging?

Answers

Solving Proportions

Proportions are created when we set two ratios equal to each other. They help us convert between rates.

Example:

[tex]\dfrac{4\hspace{3}stars}{8\hspace{3}hearts}=\dfrac{6\hspace{3}stars}{x\hspace{3}hearts}[/tex]

⇒ In this example, we are solving for x.

Question example: For every 4 stars, there are 8 hearts. How many hearts will there be for 6 stars?

To solve proportions, we can cross multiply. This means multiplying the numerator of one fraction by the denominator of the other fraction.:

[tex]\dfrac{4\hspace{3}stars}{8\hspace{3}hearts}=\dfrac{6\hspace{3}stars}{x\hspace{3}hearts}\\\\4x=6*8[/tex]

Solving the Question

We're given:

8 minutes of jogging = 96 calories burned14 minutes of jogging = ? calories burned

Set up a proportion:

[tex]\dfrac{8\hspace{3}minutes}{96\hspace{3}calories}= \dfrac{14\hspace{3}minutes}{x\hspace{3}calories}[/tex]

⇒ Let x be equal to the number of calories the jogger would burn in 14 minutes.

Cross multiply:

[tex]8x=14*96\\8x=1344\\x=168[/tex]

Answer

Therefore, the jogger would burn 168 calories in 14 minutes of jogging.

Answer:

y=-2x-2

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm guessing that the question is asking for the equation for slope-intercept for y=mx+b

Why? Well, the the slope formula is rise/run. As you can see, if you look the y-coordinate is consistently going down (negative) by two, and the x-coordinate it is going right by 1 every time and makes a triangle shape. You can actually draw it if you want to. And the -2 would be the y-intercept. (Exactly what it means, where the line means the y-axis)

[tex]\frac{16}{7}[/tex]Answer:

X = -16/7

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply the numbers

4 x 2 + 8 = -7x

8 + 8 = -7x

Add the numbers

8 + 8 = -7x

16= -7x

Divide both sides by the same factor

16= -7x

16 divided bu -7x and -7x divided by -7x

Simplify

-16 divided by 7 not negative 7 and -7 divided by -7

Cancel terms that are in both the numerator and denominator

cancel out -7 divided by -7 and you get -16/7 left

so, therefore x= -16/7

Step-by-step explanation:

To Find:

which number line represents the number of weeks it will take Alma to read at least 28 books.

Solve:

Create an inequality from the given information :

( 2x ≥ 28, where x represents the number of weeks)

Then divided both sides of the inequality by 2, resulting in x ≥ 14, or all values greater than or equal to 14.

Now,  chosen the number line that shows all numbers greater than or equal to 14 (all the numbers to the right of 14 and including 14, which is indicated by a shaded circle).
