at a delicatessen, ham costs $2.49 per pound and swiss cheese costs $3.79 per pound. The customer has $9.50 to spend on 2 pounds of ham and some cheese. how much cheese can she purchase? write an equation and solve it.

Answers

Answer 1

The customer can purchase 1.19788 pounds of cheese (approximately 1.2 pounds).

How much cheese can she purchase?

We are given with the cost of ham is $2.49 per pound and

Cost of swiss cheese is $3.79 per pound.

So, the cost of 2 pounds of ham will be given as-

= 2× $2.49

= $4.98

Since, the customer has a total of  $9.50 to spend on 2 pounds of ham and some cheese,

∴ Let the number of pounds of cheese she can purchase be x.

Then the equation will be this:

2.49*2 + 3.79*x = 9.50

4.98 + 3.79x = 9.50

Subtracting 4.98 from each side we get-

4.98 -4.98 + 3.79x = 9.50-4.98

3.79x = 4.54

x  [tex]=\frac{4.54}{3.79}[/tex]

x = 1.19788 pounds of cheese (approximately 1.2 pounds).

Hence, the customer can purchase 1.19788 pounds of cheese (approximately 1.2 pounds).

Write an algebraic expression that matches Six less than a number

Answers

ANSWER

x - 6

EXPLANATION

We want to write an algebraic expression that matches the statement:

Six less than a number.

First, let that unknown number be x.

So, 6 less than x.

Since it means that we are taking 6 from x, we subtract 6 from x.

That will be:

Janell is standing on a set of bleacher and throws a ball in the air at an initial velocity of 35 ft/s. The height of the ball, h, at t seconds is modeled by the equation h=-16t^2+35t+6. How many seconds will it take the ball to reach the ground?

Answers

The time taken by the ball to reach the ground is 0.067 seconds

Given,

The initial velocity of the ball (speed) = 35 feet/second

The height of the ball (distance), h = -16t² + 35t + 6

We have to find the time, (t in seconds) taken by the ball to reach the ground.

Speed = distance/time

So, Time = distance/speed

Here,

Time = (-16t² + 35t + 6) / 35

We have to solve the equation first.

-16t² + 35t + 6 = 0 is in quadratic form. So, we can solve this by using quadratic formula.

Quadratic formula = [tex]\frac{-b(+-)\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac } }{2a}[/tex]

Here,

a = -16, b = 35, c = 6

Now,

[tex]\frac{-b(+-)\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac } }{2a}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{-35(+-)\sqrt{35^{2}-4(-16)(6) } }{2(-16)}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{-35(+-)\sqrt{1225 +384} }{-32}[/tex]

= (-35±√1609) / -32

= (-35±40.11) / -32

Now,

Solve for:

(-35 + 40.11) / -32 = 5.11/-32 = -0.15

Solve for

(-35 - 40.11) / -32 = -75.11 / -32 = 2.35

Lets take the height as 2.35 feet.

Now,

Time = distance/speed

Time = 2.35/35 = 0.067

Therefore, the time taken by the ball to reach the ground is 0.067 seconds.

For each ordered pair, determine whether it is a solution to 5x + 2y = -1. (x, y) (1, − 3) (2,8) (-4, -6) (-3,7) what is the soulsion

Answers

The following ordered pairs are the solutions to 5x+2y=-1 :

(1,-3) and (-3,7)

Given we have the ordered pairs and the equation.

To find out whether the ordered pair is a solution or not, we just need to replace the x and y values from the ordered pair (x,y) and check if both the sides equate.

a. (1,-3)

5x+2y=-1

5(1)+2(-3) = -1

consider L.H.S

5-6

= -1

Therefore, L.H.S = R.H.S

hence the ordered pair (1,-3) is a solution to 5x+2y=-1.

b. (2,8)

5x+2y=-1

5(2)+2(8) = -1

consider L.H.S

10+16

= 16

Therefore, L.H.S ≠ R.H.S

hence the ordered pair (2,8) is not a solution to 5x+2y=-1.

c. (-4,-6)

5x+2y=-1

5(-4)+2(-6) = -1

consider L.H.S

-20-12

= -32

Therefore, L.H.S ≠ R.H.S

hence the ordered pair (-4,-6) is not a solution to 5x+2y=-1.

d. (-3,7)

5x+2y=-1

5(-3)+2(7) = -1

consider L.H.S

-15+14

= -1

Therefore, L.H.S = R.H.S

hence the ordered pair (2,8) is a solution to 5x+2y=-1.

Therefore the ordered pairs which are solutions to 5x+2y=-1 are:

(1,-3) and (-3,7)

To find

The value of ab

Solution

Recall the identities:

tan θ = sin θ / cos θsec θ = 1 / cos θ cot θ = cos θ/ sin θcosec θ = 1 / sin θsin² θ + cos² θ = 1(a + b)(a - b) = a² - b²

Now find a and b, then find their product.

1 - a tan θ = sec θ1 - a sin θ / cos θ = 1 / cos θ cos θ - a sin θ = 1a sin θ = cos θ - 1a = (cos θ - 1) / sin θ

b - cot θ = cosec θb - cos θ/ sin θ  = 1 / sin θb = cos θ/ sin θ  + 1 / sin θb = (cos θ  + 1) / sin θ

ab = (cos θ - 1) / sin θ × (cos θ  + 1) / sin θ = (cos² θ - 1) / sin² θ = - sin² θ / sin² θ  = - 1

Answers

Fred's overtime pay is $16.50 an hour. He put in extra time this week on Monday and Thursday. The equation is $123.75-4 times the x value =h and h value is 57.75 and the working hours are 3.5 hours.

Given that,

Fred's overtime pay is $16.50 an hour. He put in extra time this week on Monday and Thursday. He put in four hours of extra on Monday. He received $123.75 in overtime compensation in total for the week.

We have to determine how many overtime hours, h, Fred worked on Thursday, write an equation and solve it.

We can write the equation as

$123.75-4 times the x value =h

Here,

x value is $16.50

We get,

$123.75-4×$16.50=h

h=57.75

To check hours working

57.75/16/50

Answers

Answer:

  2a.  ((500x +200)x +600)x

  2b.  $1350.68

  3.  -1

Step-by-step explanation:

2. You want to know the balance in an account at the end of 3 years with deposits at the beginning of successive years being $500, $200, and $600, and with deposits having an annual growth factor of x. You want (a) an expression for the balance in terms of x, and (b) the balance when x=1+2%.

3. You want the value of p(-2) for p(x) = 5x³ +8x² -3x + 1.

2. Account Balancea. Expression

$500 is deposited at the beginning of the first year. The problem statement tells us that this has been multiplied by growth factor x by the end of the year, so the balance at that point is 500x.

At the beginning of the second year, $200 is added to the account, and the entire amount is multiplied by the growth factor for the year. That makes the balance at the end of the second year be ...

  (500x +200)x

Then $600 is added, and again the account grows by a factor of x. At the end of the third year, the balance is ...

  balance = ((500x +200)x +600)x

b. Balance for r=2%

The growth factor is given as x = 1 +r. When r = 2%, this becomes x = 1.02. Then the balance at the end of year 3 is ...

  ((500·1.02 +200)·1.02 +600)·1.02 = 1350.68

The amount in the account at the end of three years is $1350.68.

__

3. Polynomial value

The value of p(x) = 5x³ +8x² -3x +1 for x=-2 is found by substituting -2 where x is found. Evaluation can be easier by rewriting the polynomial to Horner form:

  p(x) = ((5x +8)x -3)x +1

  p(-2) = ((5(-2) +8)(-2) -3)(-2) +1 = ((-2)(-2) -3)(-2) +1 = (1)(-2) +1 = -1

The value of the function for x=-2 is -1.

__

Additional comment

You will note that the expression in problem 2 is also written in Horner form. If it were expanded, it would be 500x³ +200x² +600x. Evaluation takes fewer steps when Horner form is used.

Answers

The equation of the line that passes through the point; (-4, 8) and is parallel to x + y = 6 as required in the task content is; x + y = 4.

What is the equation of the line that passes through the given point and is parallel to the given line?

It follows that the equation of the line that passes through the given point and is parallel to the given line is to be determined.

By expressing the given linear equation in slope-intercept form; it follows that we have;

x + y = 6

y = -x + 6

Hence, the slope of the equation by comparison with; y = mx + c is; -1.

Therefore, the slope of the required equation is same as the two lines are said to be parallel.

Ultimately, the required equation from point-slope form of an equation is;

( y - 8) = -1 ( x - (-4))

y - 8 = -x - 4

x + y = -4 +8

x + y = 4.

Ultimately, the required equation is; x + y = 4.
