A hardware store sells power pack A, consisting of 4 D cells and 2 C cells for $12.60, and power pack B, consisting of 6 D cells and 4 C cells for $20.80. What is the price of each cell?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The D cells are worth $2.20, and the C cells are worth $1.90.

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be written as:

4x + 2y = 12.60

6x + 4y =20.80

Our goal is to find one variable, then use that information to find the other.

If we multiply the top function by -1.5, we get:

-6x - 3y = -18.90

We can add this to the previous equation.

  -6x - 3y = -18.90

+ 6x + 4y = 20.80

--------------------------

             y = 1.90

The C cells are worth $1.90.

Plug this value into one of the other equations and solve for x.

4x + 2y = 12.60  

4x + 2(1.90) = 12.60

4x + 3.80 = 12.60  

4x = 8.80

x = 2.20

The D cells are worth $2.20.

Check these values in the other equation.

6x + 4y = 20.80

6(2.20) + 4(1.90) = 20.80

13.20 + 7.60 = 20.80

20.80 = 20.80

Answer 2

Answer:

  C = $1.90 each

  D = $2.20 each

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

  Power pack A:   4D + 2C = 12.60

  Power pack B:   6D + 4C = 20.80

Isolate any one variable:

  4D + 2C = 12.60

  4D = 12.60 - 2C

  D = 3.15 - 0.5C

Substitution to find cost of C cell battery:

  6D + 4C = 20.80

  6(3.15 - 0.5C) + 4C = 20.80

  18.9 - 3C + 4C = 20.80

  18.9 + C = 20.80

  C = 1.90

Substitution to find cost of D cell battery:

  4D + 2C = 12.60

  4D + 2(1.90) = 12.60

  4D + 3.8 = 12.60

  4D = 8.8

  D = 2.20

Step-by-step explanation:

Mal works at a photo gallery. He charges $50 for a large photo and $40 for a large frame. Sales tax is 5%.
How much total tax will a customer pay on both?
Answer the questions to show how to write and simplify expressions that represent the problem.

Answers

Answer:

The total amount that the consumer had to pay for both products was $ 94.50.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Mal sold a large photo for $ 50 and a large frame for $ 40, and that the sales tax for these products is 5%, to determine the total amount that the consumer had to pay to purchase these products arises from the following calculation:

(50 + 40) x 1.05 = X

90 x 1.05 = X

94.5 = X

Therefore, the total amount that the consumer had to pay for both products was $ 94.50.

Answer:

1. Evaluate the expression: $4.50

2. Expand the expression: 2.5 + 2 = 4.5 (4.50)

3. Total tax is 4.50. yes, both the evaluating and expanding got me the same answer.

4. Expanded Expression

Step-by-step explanation:

1.  0.05(50 + 40) evaluated is 4.50

2. I broke apart 4.50 into different numbers and got 2.5 + 2

10. The total cost of a candy bar and a bag of chips is $1.70. If the cost of a candy bar and 2 bags of chips is
$2.45, what is the cost of a candy bar?

Answers

Answer: maybe 75 cents

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

The cost of a candy bar is $0.75.

Step-by-step explanation:

With the provided first sentence preceded along the lines, 'total cost of a candy bar and a bag of chips is $1.70.'

--Intially, determine the quotient of 1.70 and the two quantities.

+ Result should be 0.85

Thus symbolizing .85 is the valid price of a candy bar and a bag of chips.

------------------------- Although, we are not done. -----------------------------------

Let's take the second sentence into account.

"If the cost of a candy bar and 2 bags of chips is $2.45, what is the cost of a candy bar?"

Determine the sum of .75 and (.85*2)

Alert: .75 came from subtracting 10 from the intial .85

Thus the sum is $2.45, which was stated earlier as the cost of a candy bar and 2 bags of chips.

56 32 48 52 51 53 48 38 35 42 40 46 54 50

Answers

In order to draw the Box-whisker plot, we need to rewrite the data in increasing order.

42 43 47 48 51 52 56 56 58 60 62 64 65 66

Mean of the data = (42 + 43 + 47 + 48 + 51 + 52 + 56 + 56 + 58 + 60 + 62 + 64

+ 65 + 66) ÷ 14

Mean of the data = 770 ÷ 14

Mean of the data = 55

Median = (56 + 56) ÷ 2

Median = 112 ÷ 2

Median = 56

Lowest value = 42

Highest value = 66

Range = Highest value - Highest value

Range = 66 - 42

Range = 24

Lower Quartile = 25% of the data

Lower Quartile = 48

Upper Quartile = 75% of the data

Upper Quartile = 62

pls help find the amount at the end of 6 hours

Answers

Answer:

A. 7,348

Step-by-step explanation:

P = le^kt

intitial population = 500

time = 4 hrs

end population = 3,000

So we have all these variables and we need to solve for what the end population will be if we change the time to 6 hours. First, we need to find the rate of the growth(k) so we can plug it back in. The given formula shows a exponencial growth formula. (A = Pe^rt) A is end amount, P is start amount, e is a constant that you can probably find on your graphing calculator, r is the rate, and t is time.

A = Pe^rt

3,000 = 500e^r4

now we can solve for r

divide both sides by 500

6 = e^r4

now because the variable is in the exponent, we have to use a log

[tex]log_{e}(6) = 4r[/tex]

ln(6) = 4r

we can plug the log into a calculator to get

1.79 = 4r

divide both sides by 4

r = .448

now lets plug it back in

A = 500e^(.448)(6 hrs)

A = 7351.12

This is closest to answer A. 7,348

Answers

Answer: See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

a. how old is Cheryl?

Cheryl's age = d + 5

b. how old is Brandon?

d + 5 + 2

= d + 7

c. what was the difference in their ages 5 years ago?

Cheryl age five years ago = d

Brandon's age five years ago = d + 2

Difference = d + 2 - d = 2 years

d. what is the sum of their ages now?

Cheryl's age = d + 5

Brandon age = d + 7

Sum = d + 5 + d + 7

= 2d + 12

e. what will the sum of their ages be two years from now?

Two years from now,

Cheryl's age = d + 5 + 2 = d + 7

Brandon age = d + 7 + 2 = d + 9

Sum = d + 7 + d + 9

= 2d + 16

f. what will the difference of their ages be two years from now

Two years from now,

Cheryl's age = d + 5 + 2 = d + 7

Brandon age = d + 7 + 2 = d + 9

Difference = Brandon age - Cheryl age

= (d + 9) - (d + 7)

= 2 years.
