A company ordered $6,000 worth of chairs. Some of the chairs ordered cost $20 each and the others cost $40 each. If twice as many $20 chairs as $40 chairs were ordered, how many chairs were ordered altogether

Answers

Answer 1

In total 180 chairs are ordered for the cost $6000.

The total cost of chairs=$6,000.

What are simultaneous equations?

In mathematics, a set of simultaneous equations, also known as a system of equations or an equation system, is a finite set of equations for which common solutions are sought.

Let x be the chairs ordered each at $20 and y be the chairs ordered each at $40.

Then equation will be 20x+40y=6000-------(1)

Given that, twice as many $20 chairs as $40 chairs were ordered.

That is 2x=y⇒2x-y=0--------(2)

Multiply equation (2) by 40.

That is 80x-40y=0--------(3)

By adding equation (2) and (3) we get

20x+40y+80x-40y=6000

⇒100x=6000

⇒x=60

Substitute x=60 in equation (2)

That is, 2x=y

⇒y=120

Total number of chairs=x+y=60+120=180 chairs.

Hence, in total 180 chairs are ordered for the cost $6000.

A football team carried out a report to see the impact of stretching on preventing injury. Of the 45 footballers in the squad 36 stretch regularly. Of those who stretch, 6 got injured last year. There was a total of 10 injured players last year.
The results can be presented in a frequency tree. What fraction of players who don't stretch get injured?

Answers

The fraction of players who don't stretch and get injured = 4/9.

The frequency tree is shown in the image attached.

The total number of footballers = 45.

The total number of footballers who stretch = 36.

Therefore, the number of footballers who don't stretch = 45 - 36 = 9.

The total number of injured footballers = 10.

The number of injured footballers from the players who stretch = 6.

Therefore, the number of injured footballers from the footballers who don't stretch = 10 - 6 = 4.

The total number of footballers who don't get injured = 45 - 10 = 35.

The number of footballers who stretch and don't get injured = 36 - 6 = 30.

The number of footballers who don't stretch and don't get injured = 9 - 4 = 5.

Therefore, the frequency tree can be shown in the image attached.

The fraction of players who don't stretch and get injured = 4/9.

Exponential function f is represented by the table. x -2 -1 0 1 2 f(x) -46 -22 -10 -4 -1 Function g is represented by the equation. Which statement correctly compares the two functions on the interval [-1, 2]? A. Both functions are increasing, but function f increases at a faster average rate. B. Only function f is increasing, but both functions are negative. C. Both functions are increasing, but function g increases at a faster average rate. D. Only function f is increasing, and only function f is negative.

Answers

The statement that describes better about function is "Both functions are increasing, but function g increases at a faster average rate." since option (c) is correct.

Given the table

x         f(x)

-2        -46

-1         -22

0         -10

1           -4

2          -1

We have to choose which statement describes better about function

Let us assume [tex]f(x)=ab^x+c[/tex]

at x=0, f(0)=-10

So, -10 =a+c

Similarly, by satisfying the above table in the f(x)

[tex]f(x)=\frac{33}{5} (\frac{1}{11})^x-\frac{17}{5}[/tex]

[tex]f'(x) > 0[/tex]

So we can say that f(x) is an increasing function.

[tex]g(x) = - 18 (\frac{1}{3} )^ x + 2[/tex]

[tex]g^ \prime (x) = - 18 (\frac{1}{3} )^ x ln(1/3)[/tex]

ln(1/3) < 0

So, g^ \prime (x) > 0

So, g(x) is an increasing function.

For any x∈f(x) and  x∈g(x) [tex]g'(x) > f'(x)[/tex]

So, g increases at a faster average rate

Thus, Both functions are increasing, but function g increases at a faster average rate.

Mike has 21 pounds of tomatoes and 9 pounds of mixed peppers from his garden that he will use to make salsa and tomato sauce. The graph represents the system of equations shown.

A system of equations. x plus 5 y equals 21. x plus y equals 9.

The variable x represents the number of batches of salsa that can be made and y represents the number of batches of tomato sauce that can be made.

Answers

Answer:

x= 6 , y = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

x + 5y = 21

i am using trail and error method and i got the answer easily

the logic behind this is simple

the first equation is x + 5y = 21 so we can say that y  will be 5 x 1 , 5 x 2 , 5 x  3 , 5 x 4

first i did 5 x 4 = 20

x + 5 x 4 = 21

x= 1 but the equation x + y = 1 + 4 = 5  which is not equal to 9

second i tried with 5 x 3 =15

and the equation will be

x + 5 x 3 = 21

6 + 15 = 21

this time the second equation became true

x + y = 9

6 + 3 = 9

the no of pounds of salsa = 6

no of pounds of tomato = 3

The table of values represents a linear function g(x) where c is the number of days that have passed and g(x) is the balance in the bank account

Answers

After 7 days, the balance will be Rs. 628.

(A) The slope of the given function is 40.

(B) In point - slope form it is y - 600 = 40x

   In Slope - intercept form it is y = 40x + 600

   In Standard form it is 40x - y + 600 = 0

(C) g(x) = 4x + 600

(D) After 7 days, the balance will be Rs. 628

Let g(x) = y

(A) We know slope = change in y/change in x

                               = 720-600/3-0

                               = 120/3

                               = 40

Therefore, the slope of the given function is 40.

(B) We know that the equation of a line

in point - slope form is y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

where ( x₁, y₁ ) is a point on the line

where m is the slope

Therefore, substituting the values, we get,

y - 600 = 40(x - 0)

=> y - 600 = 40x                                    --(i)

What is the  Slope - intercept form?

Slope - intercept form is y  = mx + b

where m is the slope

and b is the y-intercept

To find y intercept, we substitute x = 0 in equation (i)

=> 40*0 - y + 600 = 0

=> -y + 600 = 0

=> y = 600

Therefore, substituting the values, we get,

     y = 40x + 600

in Standard form is ax + by = c

where a, b, and c is constant

Converting the equation found above into the standard form

=> y = 40x + 600

=> 40x - y + 600 = 0

(C) As we had assumed g(x) to be y

=> From equation (i),

 y - 600 = 40x    

can be written as g(x) - 600 = 4x

=> g(x) = 4x + 600                                    --(ii)

(D) We need to find the balance in the bank account after 7 days

=> Balance [g(x)] when x = 7

Therefore, substituting the value of x in equation (ii)

=> g(x) = 4*7 + 600

          = 28 + 600

          = 628

Therefore, after 7 days, the balance will be Rs. 628.

Analysis:

coordinates of the shape before transformation are: (-3, 0) (0,0) (-3, -2) 0, -2)

Across the line of transformation, the corresponding vertices(old and new) must be equal distance from the line of reflection.

The elimination method is the process of eliminating one of the variables in the system of linear equations using the addition or subtraction methods in conjunction with the multiplication or division of coefficients of the variables.

Johan and Jonathan have the same number of stamps.

Let x be the Johan and Jonathan postal stamps.

Let y be the John postal stamps.

Two times Johan’s collection is eleven less than five times John’s collection.

2x = 5y - 11............(1)

Three times Jonathan’s collection is three less than seven times John’s collection.

3x = 7y - 3............(2)

Multiply equation 1 with 3

3(2x = 5y - 11)

⇒ 6x = 15y - 33.........(3)

Multiply equation 2 with 2

2(3x = 7y - 3)

⇒ 6x = 14y - 6.............(4)

Subtract equation 4 from equation 3

⇒ 6x - 6x = 15y - 33 - (14y - 6)

⇒ 0 = y - 27

y = 27

​The fuel for a lawn mower is a mixture of 8 parts petrol to one part oil. How much oil is required to make 1 litre of fuel?​​​

Answers

The amount of oil required for 1 liter of fuel is 111.11 mL.

Fraction is the portion of a total amount where the above part of the fraction is the denominator and the bottom part of the fraction is called the numerator.

Given that the fuel is the mixture where 8 parts are petrol and 1 part is oil in the whole part of the fuel.

The total part of the fuel is 8+1=9

the portion of the petrol is = parts of petrol/total parts of the fuel= 8/9

the portion of the oil = parts of oil /total parts of the fuel= 1/9

Now we have to calculate the amount of oil required for 1 liter of fuel.

As discussed before, 1/9 parts of the fuel is oil.

So the amount of oil is= (1/9)*1 liter= (1/9)litre= 1/9* 1000 mL= 111.11 mL

Similarly, we can calculate the amount of petrol which will be

the amount of petrol= (8/9)*1 liter= (8/9) liter= 8/9*1000 mL= 888.88 mL

Therefore the amount of oil required for 1 liter of fuel is 111.11 mL.

We don't need to know what that side length is. It doesn't matter.

The area of one red equilateral triangle is some area A.

There are 6 of these red triangles, so the red exterior triangular parts combine to a total area of 6*A.

The hexagon is composed of equilateral triangles as well.

Each of these blue equilateral triangles is congruent to any outer red triangle because the side length is the same.

Therefore, the 6 blue equilateral triangles composing this hexagon combine to get a total area of 6*A

The area of the star overall is 12*A because we have 6 blue triangles combining with the 6 red triangles.

14. In angle LMN, the exterior angle adjacent to angle L has a measure of 5x+12. If the measure of angle M= 3x-2 and the measure of angle N= 50. Find the measure of angle L.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\huge\boxed{\sf L = 78\°}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Exterior angle of L = 5x + 12

M = 3x - 2

N = 50

Statement:Exterior angle is equal to the sum of non-adjacent interior angles.

So, the exterior angle that is adjacent to L is equal to the sum of non-adjacent sides (M and N) of the triangle.

Here,

Exterior angle of L = M + N

5x + 12 = 3x - 2 + 50

5x + 12 = 3x + 48

Subtract 12 to both sides

5x = 3x + 48 - 12

5x - 3x = 36

2x = 36

Divide 2 to both sides

x = 18

So,

Measure of angle M:

= 3x - 2

= 3 (18) - 2

= 54 - 2

= 52°

Now,

Measure of angle L:

We know that,

Sum of all the interior angles of triangle is 180 degrees.

L + M + N = 180°

L + 52 + 50 = 180

L + 102 = 180

Subtract 102 to both sides

L = 180 - 102

L = 78°
