At a fabric store, fabrics are sold by the yard. A dressmaker spent $36.35 on 4.25 yards of silk and cotton fabrics for a dress. Silk is $16.90 per yard and cotton is $4 per yard. Here is a system of equations that represent the constraints in the situation. x + y = 4.25 16.90x + 4y = 36.35 Find the solutions to the system of equations. Explain or show your reasoning

Answers

Answer 1

Given:

The system of equations that represent the constraints for the given situation is

[tex]x+y=4.25[/tex]

[tex]16.90x+4y=36.35[/tex]

To find:

The solution of given system of equations.

Solution:

We have,

[tex]x+y=4.25[/tex]           ...(i)

[tex]16.90x+4y=36.35[/tex]           ...(ii)

Multiply equation (i) by 4.

[tex]4x+4y=17[/tex]           ...(iii)

Subtracting (iii) from (ii), we get

[tex]16.90x+4y-(4x+4y)=36.35-17[/tex]

[tex]16.90x+4y-4x-4y=19.35[/tex]

[tex]12.90x=19.35[/tex]

Divide both sides by 12.90.

[tex]x=\dfrac{19.35}{12.90}[/tex]

[tex]x=1.5[/tex]

Put this value in (i).

[tex]1.5+y=4.25[/tex]

[tex]y=4.25-1.5[/tex]

[tex]y=2.75[/tex]

The solution of system of equations is x=1.5 and y=2.75. It means, the yards of silk are 1.5 and yards of cotton are 2.75.

Robert is moving and must rent a truck. In addition to an initial fee, the rental company charges a fee of $1.50 per mile driven. If Robert were to drive 4 miles, the total cost would be $26. Write an equation for C,C, in terms of m,m, representing the total cost of renting the truck if Robert were to drive mm miles.

Answers

Answer: C = $20 + $1.50(m)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the initial fee be represented as y.

Based on the question, the rental initial fee will be calculated as:

y + $1.50(4) = $26

y + $6 = $26

y = $26 - $6

Initial fee = $20

If Robert were to drive m miles, the cost will be:

C = $20 + $1.50(m)

: Susan works as a hostess where she makes $8.75 per hour. She also babysits and earns $10.00 per hour. Last week she made $165.00. If she worked 6 hours more as a hostess than she did babysitting, how many hours did she babysit last week?

Answers

Answer:

She worked 12 hours as a babysitter and hours 6 as a hostess

Step-by-step explanation:

She woks 6 hours and gets 52.20 as a hostess so if she worked 6 hours as a babysitter then she would make 60 and 165-60=105 and since she worked 6 hours as a baby sitter than she has to work 12 hours as a hostess to make 105  we know that 105+60 =165.

2x+4y+3z=6
x-2y+z=-5
-x-3y-2z=-7
solve for x,y,z

Answers

Answer:

x = -7 2/3, y = 1 1/3 and z = 5 1/3.

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+4y+3z=6    .....  1

x-2y+z=-5        ...... 2

-x-3y-2z=-7      .......3

Add equations 2 and 3 to eliminate x:

-5y - z = -12   .....4

Multiply equation 2 by - 2:

-2x + 4y  - 2z = 10

Add this to equation 1:

8y + z = 16   ........ 5

Now add equation 4 to equation 5:

3y = 4

y = 4/3 = 1 1/3.

Now find z by substituting for y in equation 4:

-5(4/3) - z = -12

z = 12 - 20/3

z = 36/3 - 20/3 = 16/3 = 5 1/3.

Finally, we find x by substituting for y and z in equation 1:

2x + 4*4/3 + 3*16/3 = 6

2x = 6 - 16/3 - 16

2x =  18/3 - 16/3 - 48/3 = -46/3

x = 23/3 =  7 2/3.

Olivia and her family are planning a vacation that involves water skiing. Water Sports and More charges $20.50 for the ski rental (one-time fee) and $12.25 an hour to rent the boat.

Complete the table to determine the total cost for 1, 2, 3, and 4 hours.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of hours used to rent the boat be represented by h.

Since Water Sports and More charges $20.50 for the ski rental (one-time fee) and $12.25 for every hour used, the expression to calculate the cost for hours used will be:

= $20.50 + $12.25h

where h = number of hours used.

The cost for 1 hour will be:

= $20.50 + $12.25h

= $20.50 + $12.25(1)

= $20.50 + $12.25

= $32.75

The cost for 2 hours will be:

= $20.50 + $12.25(2)

= $20.50 + $24.50

= $45

The cost for 3 hours will be:

= $20.50 + $12.25h

= $20.50 + $12.25(3)

= $20.50 + $36.75

= $57.25

The cost for 4 hours will be:

= $20.50 + $12.25h

= $20.50 + $12.25(4)

= $20.50 + $49

= $69.50

Step-by-step explanation:

If the quadratic equation does not cross the x axis (or more specifically, if the quadratic is an upward opening parabola and the vertex is above the x axis, or if the quadratic is a downward opening parabola and the vertex is below the x axis), it will have no real solution

The fundamental theorem of algebra says that quadratics must have 2 solutions, so the solutions must be imaginary.

Answer:

2 and 1/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Reduce fractions where possible.

Then your initial equation becomes 1/8 divied by 1/17.Applying the fractions formula for division, 1 17 over 8 and 1 then multiply those. Then simplfy.

[tex]\frac{1}{8}[/tex] divided by [tex]2\frac{3}{4}[/tex] is equal to [tex]\frac{1}{22}[/tex] we get by converting the mixed fraction to improper and divide them both.

The given expression is [tex]\frac{1}{8}[/tex] divided by [tex]2\frac{3}{4}[/tex].

Convert the mixed number [tex]2\frac{3}{4}[/tex] to an improper fraction.

[tex]2\frac{3}{4} = \frac{2 \times 4 + 3}{4}[/tex]

[tex]= \frac{11}{4}[/tex]

Now, we can rewrite the expression as:

[tex]\frac{1}{8} \div \frac{11}{4}[/tex]

To divide fractions, we multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction:

[tex]\frac{1}{8} \times \frac{4}{11}[/tex]

Next, let's simplify the multiplication:

[tex]\frac{1 \times 4}{8 \times 11} = \frac{4}{88}[/tex]

We can further simplify the fraction by dividing the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 4:

[tex]\frac{4}{88} = \frac{1}{22}[/tex]

Therefore,[tex]\frac{1}{8}[/tex] divided by [tex]2\frac{3}{4}[/tex] is equal to [tex]\frac{1}{22}[/tex].

Jody and her friends are playing a game in which the person who scores closest to zero points after three rounds wins! Jody's friend Robyn scored 5 points in the first round, lost 8 points in the second round, and scored 4 points in the third round. Jody scored 10 points in the first round and lost 4 points in the second round. What will Jody need to score in the third round to win the game? (3 points)

Answers

Answer:

Jody needs to lose the third round by 6 points to win the game.

Step-by-step explanation:

The rule of the game is the person who scores closest to zero points after three rounds win.

Robyn scored 5 points in the first round, lost 8 points in the second round, and scored 4 points in the third round.

So, total points for Robyn = 5-8+4=1

So, the magnitude of the closeness of Robyn's score from zero

=|1-0|=1

Jody scored 10 points in the first round and lost 4 points in the second round.

Let Jody score x point in the third round.

Total points for Jody= 10-4+x=6+x

So, the magnitude of the closeness of Jody's score from zero

=|6+x-0|=|6+x|

The condition for Jody to win the game is his points must be closer to zero than Robyn's points, i.e

|6+x|<1

Case 1: If  [tex]x\geq -6[/tex],

6+x<1

[tex]\Rightarrow x<-5[/tex], which is not possible for this case.

Case 2: If  [tex]x\leq -6[/tex],

-(6+x)<1

[tex]\Rightarrow x+6>1[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow x>-5[/tex]

For this case [tex]x= -6[/tex] is the only possibility.

So, Jody must score -6 in the third round to win the game. i.e Jody needs to lose the third round by 6 points.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the slope formula

  = ( -8+14)/( 8 -9)

  6/-1

  -6

Answer:

[tex]\boxed {\tt m= -6}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope formula is:

[tex]m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

where (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) are the points given.

The points are (9, -14) and (8,-8). Therefore,

x₁=9

y₁= -14

x₂= 8

y₂= -8

Answer:
Anthony received $320 for his birthday last year.

Explanation:
What we know:
- this year, Anthony got $150
- 150=half the amount he got last year-10

We can create an equation with this information:

Let x be equal to the amount of money Anthony received last year.
150=1/2x-10

And now we solve the equation and isolate x.

150=1/2x-10
Add 10 to both sides
150+10=1/2x-10+10
160=1/2x
Divide both sides by 1/2
160/ 1/2=1/2x / 1/2
160/ 1/2=x
Dividing by a fraction is the same as multiplying its flip
160*2=x
320=x
