In a certain candy store, 3 pounds of candy and 2 pounds of mints cost $10.80, and 1 pound of candy and 3 pounds of mints cost $5.35. What is the cost per pound of the candy and the mints?

If m = price of mints and c = price of candy, then which of the following expressions is equal to 5.35?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

m = 0.75well 1.7 bc 5.35/3=1.7 This is the cost per pound of the mints.

Step-by-step explanation:

From this sentence >> 3 pounds of candy and 2 pounds of mints cost $10.80

you can make-up an equation >> 3c + 2m = 10.80 right?

That's your first equation, 3c + 2m = 10.80 ... (1)

and from this sentence >> 1 pound of candy and 3 pounds of mints cost $5.35

you can make-up an equation >> c + 3m = 5.35 ... (2)

you can use various methods here, like graphing, substitution, comparison, and elimination method.

Let's try using substitution method.

3c + 2m = 10.80 ... (1)

c + 3m = 5.35 ... (2) << here you can come up with c = 5.35 - 3m then substitute it to (1)

3c + 2m = 10.80 ... (1)

3(5.35 - 3m) + 2m = 10.80

16.05 - 9m + 2m = 10.80

-7m = -5.25

m = 0.75 <<This is the price of the mint

to get the price of candy, simply substitute m = 0.75 to (1) or (2) if you want, it depends on you.

Either way, you will have the same answer.

Let's try substituting in (1)

3c + 2m = 10.80 ... (1)

3c + 2(0.75) = 10.80

3c + 1.5 = 10.80

3c = 9.3

c = 3.1 <<this is the price of the candy

was difiqult hope this helps!!!!!

Answers

Answer:

5.7 unit

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question,

Applying pythagoras theorem,

a² = b²+c²....................... Equation 1

From the diagram.

a = /QX/, b = /XR/, c = /RQ/

Given: b = /XR/ = 4 units, c = /RQ/ = 4 units.

Substitute these values into equation 1

a² = 4²+4²

a² = 16+16

a² = 32

a = [tex]\sqrt{32}[/tex]

a = 5.7 units

Hence, QX = 5.7 units

Find the areas of the sectors formed by ∠DFE. Round your answers to the nearest hundredth.

Answers

Answer:

Area of sector DFE = 177.79cm²

Area of sector DGE = 437.65cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the diagram attached;

Area of the sector is expressed according to the formula;

Area of the sector = theta/360 * πr²

theta is the central angle = 360 - 256

theta = 104°

r is the radius = 14cm

Substitute into the formula as shown;

Area of the sector = theta/360 * πr²

Area of the sector DFE = 104/360 * 3.14(14)²

Area of the sector DFE = 0.289 * 615.44

Area of the sector DFE = 177.79cm²

Hence the area of the sector <DFE to the nearest hundredth is 177.79cm²

For sector DGE:

Area of the sector DGE = 256/360 * 3.14(14)²

Area of the sector DGE = 0.7111 * 615.44

Area of the sector DGE = 437.65cm²

Hence the area of the sector <DGE to the nearest hundredth is 437.65cm²

One of the measures of a triangle is 30º. If the sum of the other 2 angles is 150º and the differnce their measures is 18º what are the of the unkown angles

Answers

Answer: 84° & 66°

Step-by-step explanation:

find our variables...

difference in two unknown angles is 18 so...

Let's use a, b, & c to set up

a=30 b=b c=b-18

150=b+c

150=b+(b-18)

150=2b-18

168=2b

84=b

Use our known b to find c...

c=b-18

c=84-18

c=66

Adding all three up to make sure they give us 180 degrees is a good way to check our work.

a+b+c=

30+84+66=180

Actually Welcome to the concept of Areas,

Let's divide the above map in to 2 parts , that is a rectangle and a triangle, and add both thier areas to get the area of the Nevada.

so we get as,

Area of triangle = 1/2*b*h

Area of triangle ==> 1/2*309*306 ==> 47277 mi^2

Area of rectangle = l*b = 205*309 ==> 63345 mi^2

Area of NEVADA = 47277 + 63345 = 110622 mi^2

hence the area = 110622 mi^2

With a 30, 60, 90 triangle

Given the shorter leg, (side across the 30 degree angle,

To find longer leg (side across the 60 degree angle):

Multiple shorter leg by radical 3.

To find hypotenuse (side across the 90 degree angle):

Multiple shorter leg by 2.

can you figure out the missing number in this sequence?

2, 5, 9, 14, 27

Answers

Answer:

The missing number in the sequence is 20

Step-by-step explanation:

The difference between the numbers are as follows: 3,4,5,6,7

The missing number of the given sequence is 13.

The given sequence is,

2, 5, 9, 14, 27

We can see that the difference between each consecutive number is increasing.

The difference between 2 and 5 is 3,

The difference between 5 and 9 is 4,

The difference between 9 and 14 is 5,

And the difference between 14 and 27 is 13.

Therefore, it's possible that the next number in the sequence could have a difference of 14 or more.

So,

To determine the missing number,

We can look at the pattern of the differences between the numbers in the sequence.

Since the difference between 14 and 27 is 13,

We can assume that the difference between the missing number and 27 is at least 14.

Therefore, we can subtract 14 from 27 to get our missing number, which is 13.

Answers

Answer:

y = -7x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember the formula for slope-intercept form: y = mx+ b

m is equal to the slope value

b is equal to the y-intercept value

Meaning, when you substitute the values in, you get:

y = -7x + 1

Answer:

y = -7x - 1 is the desired equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Choose the form of the equation of a straight line that requires the least amount of work.  In this particular case we are given the slope (-7) and the y-intercept (1), and so use the slope-intercept form y = mx + b:

y = -7x - 1 is the desired equation.

Answers

Answer:

See Below.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that A, B, C, and D are the midpoints of sides PQ, QR, RS, and SP, respectively.

And we want to prove that ABCD is a parallelogram.

By the definition of midpoint, this means that:

[tex]SD\cong DP, \, PA\cong AQ, \, QB\congBR, \, \text{ and } RC\cong CS[/tex]

To prove, we can construct a segment from S to Q to form SQ. This is shown in the first diagram.

By the Midpoint Theorem:

[tex]DA\parallel SQ[/tex]

Similarly:

[tex]CB\parallel SQ[/tex]

By the transitive property for parallel lines:

[tex]DA\parallel CB[/tex]

Likewise, we can do the same for the other pair of sides. We will construct a segment from P to R to form PR. This is shown in the second diagram.

By the Midpoint Theorem:

[tex]AB\parallel PR[/tex]

Similarly:

[tex]DC\parallel PR[/tex]

So:

[tex]AB\parallel DC[/tex]

This yields:

[tex]DA\parallel CB\text{ and } DC\parallel AB[/tex]

By the definition of a parallelogram, it follows that:
