Jesse's mother gave him 55 pieces of candy to give to his friends at his birthday party. He gave 4 pieces to each of his friends and still had 3 pieces left. The equation 4x + 3 = 55 can be used to find the number of friends (x) at the party.

How many friends were at Jesse's party?

A) 13
B) 14
C) 15
D) 16

Answers

Answer 1
55 (total candies) - 3 (leftover candies) = 52 (the number of candies he gave to his friends)

52/4 = 13

in total, 13 friends attended jesse’s party.
Answer 2

The number of friends at Jesse's party is 14. The correct answer is B).

What is the equation?

The equation is defined as mathematical statements that have a minimum of two terms containing variables or numbers that are equal.

To determine the number of friends (x) at the party, we can use the equation 4x + 3 = 55.

This equation represents the total number of pieces of candy (4x) that Jesse gave to his friends, plus the number of pieces he had left over (3), which equals the total number of pieces of candy he had to start with (55).

To solve for x, we can start by subtracting 3 from both sides of the equation:

4x + 3 = 55

4x = 52

Next, we divide both sides of the equation by 4 to get x alone:

x = 52 / 4

x = 13

However, it's impossible to have a fraction of friends, so the number of friends at Jesse's party is 14.

Ecuación 2:
10x + 20y = 8000
ayudaaa

Answers

Answer:

y = 300

x = 200

Step-by-step explanation:

Esta pregunta parece incompleta, parece que acá tenemos un sistema de ecuaciones:

x + y = 500

10*x + 20*y = 8000

Estas ecuaciones tienen que resolverse en conjunto, y de acá sacaremos un par de puntos (x, y) que son solución para ambas ecuaciones.

El primer paso para resolver esto es aislar una variable en una de las ecuaciones, en este caso podemos aislar x en la primera ecuación y así obtener:

x = 500 - y.

Ahora podemos reemplazar eso en la segunda ecuación y obtener:

10*(500 - y) + 20*y = 8000.

Ahora resolvemos esto para y.

5000 - 10*y + 20*y = 8000

10*y = 8000 - 5000 = 3000

y = 3000/10 = 300.

Y sabíamos que:

x = 500 - y = 500 - 300 = 200

Entonces la solución es:

y = 300

x = 200

R(0, 9) and S(4, 5) are the endpoints of a line segment. What is the midpoint M of that line segment?

Write the coordinates as decimals or integers.

M = (
,
)

Answers

M = ( 2, 7)

Step-by-step explanation:

formula to find mindpoint is

[tex](\frac{x2 + x1}{2} \frac{y2 + y1}{2} )[/tex]

(0,9) = (x1, y1)

(4,5) = (x2,y2)

now substitute those into the formula!

[tex](\frac{4 + 0 }{2} \frac{5 + 9}{2} )[/tex]

now solve for x & y !!

[tex]x = \frac{4 + 0}{2} = \frac{4}{2 } = 2[/tex]

[tex]y = \frac{5 + 9}{2} = \frac{14}{2} = 7[/tex]

so now that we have solved for x & y put it in point form and your done !!

point for is (x,y)

and thanks why the Midpoint is (2,7)

Naomi is buying bagels for a family gathering. Each bagel costs $1.25. Answer the questions below regarding the relationship between the total cost and the number of bagels purchased.

Answers

Answer:

total cost = 1.50x

Step-by-step explanation:

Given cost of 1 bagel = $1.25

Let the number of bagels purchased by x

cost of x bagels = cost of 1 bagel *x

cost of x bagels = 1.50*x

Thus,

relationship between bagels and total cost is as shown below

total cost = 1.50x

where x is the number of bagels purchased.

Answer:

The independent variable, x, represents the number of bagels purchased, and the dependent variable is the total cost of the bagels, because the total cost of the bagels depends on the number of bagels purchased.

A function relating these variables is N(x) = 1.25x.

So N(4) =5, meaning 4 bagels will cost 5 dollars.
