The cost of 3 loaves of bread and 3 gallons of milk is $19.35. The cost of 4
loaves of bread and 2 gallons of milk is $17.90. How much does one loaf
of bread cost?

Answers

Answer:

bread $2.5   milk  $3.95

Step-by-step explanation:

b=bread    m= milk

3b +3m = 19.35

4b+2m= 17.90

 Multiply the first by  (-2)

 Multiply the second  by 3

    Then add both

              -6b -6m = -38.7

               12b+6m=53.7

     (when you add both  6m is cancelled)

           6b = 15

         b=  2.5     (BREAD $2.5)

4(2.5) = 10

 10+ 2m = 17.90

2m = 7.90

m= 3.95   (MILK $3.95)

Can someone pls help? The stuff in the box is n’t right. Please help!

Answers

Answer:

fixed amount is 150

the rate is 6

The formula to calculate the total cost of the caterer is

total cost = 150 × 6 + number of students

Step-by-step explanation:

1. 1050= 150×r+f

2. 750= 100×r+f

• On number 2 you substract on both sides f so you get 750-f=100×r with this you divide on both sides 100 and you get 7,50 -f÷100=r

• Now you can put r into term of number 1 and you get 1050=150x(7,50-f÷100)+f

• If you calculate this to just get a f on one side you get f=150 so this the fixed amount

• Put f in r=7,50-f÷100 so u get r=7,50-150÷100 or r=6 this the rate

• So the formula to calculate the total cost for the caterer is

total cost=150 + 6 × number of students

x+2=1
x=-1

Is Josh’s solution correct? Explain.

3:Use the quadratic formula to solve x^2-6x+7. Show your work. Then describe the solution. No work, no credit.

Answers

Answer:

1

the equation (x-4)^2-17=8 has two solutions because it is in a quadratic form.

(x-4)^2-17=8

x²-8x+16-17-8=0

x²-8x-9=0

Doing middle term factorization

x²-9x+x-9=0

x(x-9)+1(x-9)=0

(x-9)(x+1)=0

either

x=9

x=9or

x=9orx=-1

2.

x^2+4x+3=0:

Doing middle term factorization

x²+3x+x+3=0

x(x+3)+1(x+3)=0

(x+3)(x+1)=0

either

x=-3

or

x=-1

Josh’s solution is incorrect because he missed x=-3.

3.

x^2-6x+7=0

By using quadratic equation formula:

Comparing above equation with ax²+bx+c=0

we get

a=1

b=-6

c=7

Now

we have

x=[tex] \frac{ - b ± \sqrt{ {b}^{2} - 4ac} }{2a} [/tex]

x=[tex] \frac{ 6± \sqrt{ {-6}^{2} - 4*1*7} }{2} [/tex]

Find the slope of the line using the slope formula.
(-1 , 3 ) and ( -1, 0)

Answers

Answer:

m=undefined

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope tells us the steepness and direction of a line. It is the change in y over the change in x.

[tex]m= \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

In this formula, (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) are the points the line passes through.

The points we are given are (-1, 3) and (-1, 0). If we match the number with the corresponding variable we see that:

x₁ = -1 y₁= 3 x₂= -1 y₂ = 0

Substitute the values into the formula.

[tex]m= \frac{ 0-3}{-1--1}[/tex]

Solve the numerator.

0-3 = -3

[tex]m= \frac{-3}{-1--1}[/tex]

Solve the denominator.

-1--1= -1+1=0

[tex]m=\frac{3}{0}[/tex]

Since we cannot divide a number by 0, the slope is undefined. Basically, this is a vertical line and all the points have the same x-coordinate.

Answers

Answer:

Median = 6.1875

Mean = 6.375

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data:

8 1/2,6 5/8,3 1/8,5 3/4,6 5/8,5 1/4,10 5/8,4 1/2

Arranging in ascending order :

3 1/8, 4 1/2, 5 1/4, 5 3/4, 6 5/8, 6 5/8, 8 1/2, 10 5/8

Median = 1/2(n + 1)th term

n = 8

1/2 (9) th term

= 4.5th term

(5 3/4 + 6 5/8) / 2

= 6.1875

Mean = Σx / n

Mean = 51 / 8

Mean = 6.375

a.Find the mean, median, and mode of 14, 15, 3, 15, 14, 14, 18, 15, 8, 16

Answers

Given:

The data set is:

14, 15, 3, 15, 14, 14, 18, 15, 8, 16

To find:

The mean, median and mode of the given data set.

Solution:

We have,

14, 15, 3, 15, 14, 14, 18, 15, 8, 16

Arrange the data values in ascending order.

3, 8, 14, 14, 14, 15, 15, 15, 16, 18

Mean of the data set is:

[tex]Mean=\dfrac{\text{Sum of all observations}}{\text{Number of observation}}[/tex]

[tex]Mean=\dfrac{3+8+14+14+14+15+15+15+16+18}{10}[/tex]

[tex]Mean=\dfrac{132}{10}[/tex]

[tex]Mean=13.2[/tex]

The number of observation is 10 which is an even number. So, the median of the data set is:

[tex]Median=\dfrac{(\dfrac{n}{2})\text{th term}+(\dfrac{n}{2}+1)\text{th term}}{2}[/tex]

[tex]Median=\dfrac{(\dfrac{10}{2})\text{th term}+(\dfrac{10}{2}+1)\text{th term}}{2}[/tex]

[tex]Median=\dfrac{5\text{th term}+6\text{th term}}{2}[/tex]

[tex]Median=\dfrac{14+15}{2}[/tex]

[tex]Median=\dfrac{29}{2}[/tex]

[tex]Median=14.5[/tex]

Mode is the most frequent value of the data set.

In the given data set the highest frequency is 3 because 14 and 15 occurs three times.

So, the mode of the given data set is 14 and`15.

Therefore, the mean is 13.2, median is 14.5 and mode is 14 and 15.
