Draco and his friends bought Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Beans for $3 per packet and chocolate frogs for $1 per packet at Honeydukes. They spent a total of $54 to buy a total of 36 packets of Beans and frogs.

Part A: Write a system of equations that Draco can solve to find the number of packets of Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Beans and the number of packets of chocolate frogs that he and his friends bought at Honeydukes. Tell what the variables used in the equations represent. (5 points)

Part B: Solve the system of equations from Part A to find out how many packets of chocolate frogs and Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Beans Draco and his friends bought and write the answer in (x, y) form. Tell which method you used to get the answer, and explain why you selected that particular method to get the answer.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Part A: x + y = 36, 3x + y = 54

Part B: (9, 27), I used subtraction to solve the system, because it eliminated the "y" value, so it would be easiest to solve.

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount of Bean Packets: x

Amount of Frogs: y

We are given that:

x + y = 36

3x + y = 54

This is the answer to answer A.

To solve, use subtraction. Subtract:

3x + y - (x + y) = 54 - 36

3x - x + y - y = 18

2x = 18

x = 9

Substituting x = 9 into x + y = 36, we find that y = 27

In (x, y) form, substitute x = 9 and y = 27 to get (9, 27)

I used subtraction to solve the system, because it eliminated the "y" value, so it would be easiest to solve.

So to solve a,

find all the possible of x for which of the below is true:

[tex] \frac{2x}{x + 3} + \frac{3}{x - 3} = \frac{8}{x^{2} - 9 } [/tex]

Answers

Answer:

x = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] , x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]\frac{2x}{x+3}[/tex] + [tex]\frac{3}{x-3}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{8}{x^2-9}[/tex] ← denominator is a difference of squares

[tex]\frac{2x}{x+3}[/tex] + [tex]\frac{3}{x-3}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{8}{(x+3)(x-3)}[/tex]

Multiply through by (x + 3)(x - 3) to clear the fractions

2x(x - 3) + 3(x + 3) = 8 ← distribute left side and simplify

2x² - 6x + 3x + 9 = 8

2x² - 3x + 9 = 8 ( subtract 8 from both sides )

2x² - 3x + 1 = 0 ← in standard form

(2x - 1)(x - 1) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

2x - 1 = 0 ⇒ 2x = 1 ⇒ x = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

x - 1 = 0 ⇒ x = 1

Multiply 81.5 and 3.5

Answers

Answer:

285.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Basically we multiply them as normal numbers so,

815*35 = 28525

Then we take the amount of spots each number had to the RIGHT of the decimal point

81.5 = 1

3.5 = 1

1+1= 2

So: 28525. move to the left 2 times to get 285.25

Answer:

[tex] \large \boxed{ \boxed{ \tt x \geqslant 2 \: \: is \: \: the \: \: domain \: \: of \: \: function}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the square root function below:

[tex] \large{g(x) = \sqrt{x - 2} }[/tex]

Recall that domain is the set of all x-values and that a number inside the square root cannot be negative.

From the given square root function above, substituting x >= 2 gives a positive output. But if we substitute x < 2, evaluating the numbers inside result in negative number in the square root which does not exist in Real Number.

Hence,

[tex] \large{y = \sqrt{x - a} }[/tex]

And thus, the domain is

[tex] \large \boxed{x \geqslant a}[/tex]

Since if x < a, the output would become an imaginary number.

From the given function,

[tex] \large{g(x) = \sqrt{x - 2} }[/tex]

From the form of sqrt(x-a) where domain is a-term which is 2.

Since a = 2, and thus

[tex] \large \boxed{x \geqslant 2}[/tex]

A 41 gram sample of a substance that's used to detect explosives has a k-value of 0.1392. Find the substance's half life, in days.

Answers

Answer:

The substance half-life is of 4.98 days.

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation for an amount of a decaying substance:

The equation for the amount of a substance that decay exponentially has the following format:

[tex]A(t) = A(0)e^{-kt}[/tex]

In which k is the decay rate, as a decimal.

k-value of 0.1392.

This means that:

[tex]A(t) = A(0)e^{-0.1392t}[/tex]

Find the substance's half life, in days.

This is t for which [tex]A(t) = 0.5A(0)[/tex]. So

[tex]A(t) = A(0)e^{-0.1392t}[/tex]

[tex]0.5A(0) = A(0)e^{-0.1392t}[/tex]

[tex]e^{-0.1392t} = 0.5[/tex]

[tex]\ln{e^{-0.1392t}} = \ln{0.5}[/tex]

[tex]-0.1392t = \ln{0.5}[/tex]

[tex]t = -\frac{\ln{0.5}}{0.1392}[/tex]

[tex]t = 4.98[/tex]

The substance half-life is of 4.98 days.
