A newsstand seller sold a total of 68 magazines and newspapers, which brought in a total of $199 on a certain day. Newspapers sell for $2 per copy and magazines sold for $5 per copy. How many magazines were sold on that day?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

21

Step-by-step explanation:

Using inequality to solve this question, we say

Let the total number of newspapers sold be x

Let the total number of magazines sold by y

x + y = 68

Suppose 1x = $2 and 1y = $5, then

2x + 5y = $199

Solving both as a simultaneous equation, we get that

2(68 - y) + 5y = $199

136 - 2y + 5y = $199

136 + 3y = $199

3y = 199 - 136

3y = 63

y = 63/3

y = 21

Then solving for x, we have

x + 21 = 68

x = 68 - 21

x = 47

Therefore, a total of 21 magazines were sold that day

Marcus borrowed 9000 from his bank to buy a car. The bank charged him a simple interest rate of 1.25%. By the time he paid back the money he had pad a total of 9281.25. How long did it take Marcus to pay back the money?

Answers

Answer:

2.5 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

P=9000

r= 1.25%

A= 9281.25

The simple interest expression is given as

A=P(1+rt)

substitute

9281.25= 9000(1+0.0125*t)

9281.25=9000+112.5t

collect like terms

9281.25-9000=112.5t

281.25= 112.5t

t= 281.25/112.5

t= 2.5

Hence the time is 2.5 years

If M (4.2) is the midpoint of AB and A (-5, -3), find the coordinates of B.

Answers

Given:

M(4,2) is the midpoint of AB and A(-5, -3).

To find:

The coordinates of B.

Solution:

Let the coordinates of point B are (a,b).

Midpoint formula:

[tex]Midpoint=\left(\dfrac{x_1+x_2}{2},\dfrac{y_1+y_2}{2}\right)[/tex]

M(4,2) is the midpoint of AB and A(-5, -3).

[tex]M=\left(\dfrac{-5+a}{2},\dfrac{-3+b}{2}\right)[/tex]

[tex](4,2)=\left(\dfrac{-5+a}{2},\dfrac{-3+b}{2}\right)[/tex]

On comparing both sides, we get

[tex]4=\dfrac{-5+a}{2}[/tex]

[tex]8=-5+a[/tex]

[tex]8+5=a[/tex]

[tex]13=a[/tex]

And,

[tex]2=\dfrac{-3+b}{2}[/tex]

[tex]4=-3+b[/tex]

[tex]4+3=b[/tex]

[tex]7=b[/tex]

Therefore, the coordinates of point B are (13,7).

solve each equation by substituting. y=-3x+5
5x-4y=-3
not different problems they are in the same problem

Answers

Answer:

(1, 2 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

y = - 3x + 5 → (1)

5x - 4y = - 3 → (2)

Substitute y = - 3x + 5 into (2)

5x - 4(- 3x + 5) = - 3 ← distribute and simplify left side

5x + 12x - 20 = - 3

17x - 20 = - 3 ( add 20 to both sides )

17x = 17 ( divide both sides by 17 )

x = 1

Substitute x = 1 into (1) for corresponding value of y

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

solution is (1, 2 )

Answer:

x = 1 and y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

y + 3x = 5 -------------> (1)

-4y + 5x = -3 -------------> (2)

(1) * 4

=> 4y + 12x = 20 --------> (3)

(3) + (2)

=> 0y + 17x = 17

=> 17x = 17

by dividing both sides by 17

=> x = 1

by putting x = 1 into (1)

=> y + 3*1 = 5

=> y + 3 = 5

=> y = 5 - 3

=> y = 2

A right triangle has side lengths,8,15,17 and as shown below.
Use these lengths to find, tan b, cos b, sin b

Answers

Remember the chant "soh cah toa"

sine = opposite ÷ hypotheneus

cosine = adjacent ÷ hypotheneus

tangent = opposite ÷ adjacent

remember that hypotheneus is the slanty side, opposite and adjacent side is in COMPARISON with the angle you want to find.

In this case, tan B would be 15/8

sinB = 15/17

cosB = 8/17

6x= 5x+10 by the corresponding angles rule solve and get 10

X+109+x+89= 180 because x+89 is equal to the angle that is too the right of x+109 by the alternate interior angle rule making the sum equal to 108. Solve and you get -9
