A store clerk sold 25 Mathematics books and 10 English books for a total of $855. If she had sold 10 Mathematics books and 40 English books, she would have got $135 more. form a pair of linear equations and calculate the price of each book.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

855+135=990

90x11=990

10x11=110

25x11=275

110+275=385                                                                                                             990+110=1100 

385+1100=1485

1485/11=135

the math books was $11 each so all to gether it is $275.      

the english books was $65 each so all to gether it is 715.

275+715=990

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

The required price of a Mathematics book is $27 and the price of an English book is $18.

What is the equation model?

The equation model is defined as the model of the given situation in the form of an equation using variables and constants.

Let's assume that the price of a Mathematics book is x dollars and the price of an English book is y dollars. Then we can form two equations based on the given information:

Equation 1: 25x + 10y = 855

This equation represents the total amount earned by selling 25 Mathematics books and 10 English books for $855.

Equation 2: 10x + 40y = 990

This equation represents the total amount that would have been earned by selling 10 Mathematics books and 40 English books for $135 more than the original total.

To solve for x and y, we can use elimination or substitution. Let's use elimination:

Multiplying Equation 1 by 4, we get:

100x + 40y = 3420

Now, we can subtract Equation 2 from this equation to eliminate y:

90x = 2430

x = 27

Substituting x = 27 into Equation 1, we can solve for y:

25(27) + 10y = 855

675 + 10y = 855

10y = 180

y = 18

Therefore, the price of a Mathematics book is $27 and the price of an English book is $18.

A city's population is increasing at a rate of 2% per year.

If this rate of growth remains the same and the population is 2 million in the year 2014, approximately how many people will there be after 20 years?

a.)
2.02 million

b.)
2.88 million

c.)
2.14 million

d.)
2.97 million

Answers

Based on the information the number of people that will there after 20 years is: d.)  2.97 million.

Using this formula

P(t) = Population ×(1+ rate)^t

Where:

Population=2 million

rate=2%

time=20 years

Let plug in the formula

P(t) = 2×(1+.02)^20

P(t) = 2×(1.02)^20

P(t) = 2×1.485947

P(t) = 2.97 million

The value of x from the equation is x = (5y - 6)/4

Given the equation 3x+5y−7x+6=12

collect the like terms;

3x-7x + 5y + 6=12

-4x + 5y = 12 - 6

-4x + 5y = 6

Subtract 6 from both sides

-4x + 5y - 5y = 6 - 5y

Determine the number of solutions you will have for the system 4y + x = 16 and y = 4 – x.

Answers

Equaling both equations, it is found that the correct option that states the number of solutions you will have for the system is:

D: one solution

The equations are:

[tex]4y + x = 16 \rightarrow x = 16 - 4y[/tex]

[tex]y = 4 - x \rightarrow x = 4 - y[/tex]

Equaling both equations for x, we have that:

[tex]16 - 4y = 4 - y[/tex]

[tex]3y = 12[/tex]

[tex]y = \frac{12}{3}[/tex]

[tex]y = 4[/tex]

[tex]x = 4 - y = 4 - y = 0[/tex]

Hence, the system has one solution, which is (0,4), and option d is correct.

Answer:    y = (-5/4)x - 8

========================================================

Explanation:

Recall that y = mx+b is the slope intercept form of any linear equation

m = slopeb = y intercept

The given equation has m = 4/5 as the slope. Flip the fraction to get 5/4 and then flip the sign to get -5/4

The original slope is 4/5 and the perpendicular slope is -5/4. Note how the slopes multiply to -1.

The slope for the answer is -5/4 and the y intercept for the answer is -8

Therefore, the perpendicular line is y = (-5/4)x - 8

From a hot-air balloon, Grayson measures a 29^{\circ} ∘ angle of depression to a landmark that’s 1004 feet away, measuring horizontally. What’s the balloon’s vertical distance above the ground? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth of a foot if necessary.

Answers

The balloon’s vertical distance above the ground is 556 feet

The set up will form a right triangle.

Given the following parameters

Angle of depression = 29 degreesHorizontal distance = 1004 feet

To get the height above the ground, we will use the SOH CAH TOA identity as shown;

Opposite = h

Adjacent = 1004 feet

Tan theta = h/1004

Tan 29 = h/1004

h = 1004 tan 29

h = 1004(0.5543)

h = 556.52 feet

Hence the balloon’s vertical distance above the ground is 556 feet

Washington Alpha and Beta Companies can borrow for a five-year term at the following rates: Alpha Beta Moodys credit rating Aa Baa Fixed-rate borrowing cost 10.5% 12.0% Floating-rate borrowing cost LIBOR LIBOR + 1% This time assuming more realistically that a swap bank is involved as an intermediary. Assume the swap bank is quoting five-year dollar interest rate swaps at 10.7% - 10.8% against LIBOR flat. Consequently, Alpha will issue fixed-rate debt at 10.5% and Beta will issue floating rate-debt at LIBOR + 1%. Alpha will receive 10.7% from the swap bank and pay it LIBOR. Beta will pay 10.8% to the swap bank and receive from it LIBOR. If this is done, Alphas floating-rate all-in-cost is: 10.5% + LIBOR - 10.7% = LIBOR - .20%, a .20% savings over issuing floating-rate debt on its own.
