Answer:
x = -4
y = -4
Step-by-step explanation:
L1 x - 5y = 16
L2 4x - 2y = -8
4*L1 - L2
4x - 20y = 64
-4x + 2y = 8
-----------------------
-18y = 72
y = 72 / -18
y = -4
x - 5y = 16
x = 16 + 5y
x = 16 + 5(-4)
x = 16 - 20
x = -4
It is the policy of stores owned by the Talkara Co. to give out bonuses to salespeople every six months. The size of the bonus is determined by averaging (taking the mean of) the two highest and the lowest monthly sales totals from the six-month period, taking 8% of the result, and splitting it evenly among the salespeople. The graph below shows sales for the most recent bonus period.If there are six salespeople, how much money will each one receive, to the nearest dollar? a. $243 b. $309 c. $324 d. $355

What is division?Division can be stated as the process of splitting a number or an amount into equal parts. Division is one of the four basic operations of arithmetic, the ways that numbers are combined to make new numbers. The other operations are addition, subtraction, and multiplication.
here, we have,
Explanation:
Total population= 400 salespeople
Received a bonus last year= 83 salespeople
Attended a special sales training program= 100 salespeople
Both attended sales training and received a bonus= 42 salespeople
a) You need to calculate the number of salespeople that receive a bonus over total population
83/400= 0,2075 The proportion of salespeople that receive a bonus is 0,2075
b) You need to calculate the number of salespeople that attended a special program over total population
100/400= 0,25 The proportion of salespeople that attended a special program is 0,35
c) 42/400= 0,105 The proportion of salespeople that receive a bonus and attended a special program is 0,105
d) You need to calculate the proportion of people that having attended received a bonus.
42/100= 0,42 The proportion of salespeople that receive a bonus having attended a special program is 0,42
e) The special training program was effective. The proportion of people that receive a bonus over the total population that didn't attend the program (41/300=0,14) is inferior to the proportion of salespeople that attend the program and receive a bonus. Meaning that there are more chances of receiving a bonus taking a training program.

Kevin and Randy Muise have a jar containing 80 coins, all of which are either quarters or nickels. The total value of the coins in the jar is $11.80. How many of each type of coin do they have?
Answer:
39 quarters and 41 nickelsStep-by-step explanation:
Let the number of quarters be x and nickels be y.
Given:
Quarter is 25 centsNickel is 5 centsNumber of coins is 80Total amount is $11.80 = 1180 centsWe have equations:
x + y = 8025x + 5y = 1180Solve the system by elimination, subtract 5 times the first equation from the second one:
25x + 5y - 5x - 5y = 1180 - 80*520x = 780x = 780/20x = 39Find the value of y:
39 + y = 80y = 80 - 39y = 41Verify:
25*39 + 5*41 = 975 + 205 = 1180(dy)/(dx) = (x ^ 2)/(1 + y)

Sammy's Chipmunk & Squirrel Observations
For a science project, Sammy observed a chipmunk and a squirrel stashing
acorns in holes. The chipmunk hid 3 acorns in each of the holes it dug. The
squirrel hid 4 acorns in each of the holes it dug. They each hid the same number
of acorns, although the squirrel needed 4 fewer holes. How many acorns did the
chipmunk hide?
Answer:12 accorns
Step-by-step explanation:
If they each hid the same number of acorns, although the squirrel needed 4 fewer holes, the chipmunk hid 3 acorns in each hole
Let's assume the number of holes the chipmunk dug is 'c', and the number of acorns it hid in each hole is 'x'. Similarly, let's assume the number of holes the squirrel dug is 's', and the number of acorns it hid in each hole is 'y'.
According to the information provided, the chipmunk hid 3 acorns in each of the holes it dug, so x = 3. The squirrel hid 4 acorns in each of the holes it dug, so y = 4.
Both the chipmunk and squirrel hid the same number of acorns, so cx = sy.
Also, the squirrel needed 4 fewer holes, so s = c - 4.
Now, we can use the information to set up a system of equations:
cx = sy
c - 4 = s
Substitute the value of s from the second equation into the first equation:
c(c - 4) = 3(c - 4)
Expand the equation:
c² - 4c = 3c - 12
Now, bring all terms to one side of the equation:
c² - 4c - 3c + 12 = 0
Combine like terms:
c² - 7c + 12 = 0
Now, factor the quadratic equation:
(c - 3)(c - 4) = 0
Now, set each factor to zero and solve for 'c':
c - 3 = 0 => c = 3
c - 4 = 0 => c = 4
Since the chipmunk hid 3 acorns in each hole, the correct answer is The chipmunk hid 3 acorns.

Which of the following is most likely the next step in the series?
A.
B.
C.
D.
Each consecutive element of the series has one less blue points than the before element, with that, we conclude that the correct option is D, where there is only one blue point.
Which of the following is most likely the next step in the series?
Here we can see a series of 3 elements.
the first element is a circle with 4 blue points on its circumference, such that the points are connected to form a rectangle.
The next element is a circle with 3 blue points on it, such that when the points are connected a triangle is formed.
The third element is a circle, this time with 2 points, and the connection forms a segment.
So what we can see is that in each consecutive element the number of blue points on the circumference of the circles decreases by one, so the logical conclusion is that the next element will have only one point on its perimeter, then the correct option is D, where we can see only one blue point on the perimeter of the circle.

|blank|packages of stationery are produced and sold each week.
(sorry forgot to add that part in last question, hope this one is better)
Answer:
more than 1100
Step-by-step explanation:
The contribution margin for each package sold is ...
$6.50 -3.00 = $3.50
The number of packages that must be sold to cover fixed costs is ...
3.50n > 3850
n > 1100 . . . . . . . divide by 3.50
The company will generate a profit if more than 1100 packages are produced and sold each week.
_____
Additional comment
If exactly 1100 packages are sold, then costs are covered, but profit is 0. In order for profit to be positive, more than 1100 packages must be sold.
Let |u| = 10 at an angle of 45° and |v| = 13 at an angle of 150°, and w = u + v. What is the magnitude and direction angle of w?
|w| = 9.4; θ = 72.9°
|w| = 9.4; θ = 107.1°
|w| = 14.2; θ = 72.9°
|w| = 14.2; θ = 107.1°
Recall that for two vector x and y making an angle θ with each,
x • y = ||x|| ||y|| cos(θ)
If we replace y with x, we see that
x • x = ||x|| ||x|| cos(0) = ||x||² ⇒ ||x|| = √(x • x)
Using the last identity, the magnitude of w is
||w|| = √(w • w)
but since w = u + v, we have
w • w = (u + v) • (u + v)
The dot product distributes over sums and is commutative, so
w • w = (u • u) + (u • v) + (v • u) + (v • v)
… = ||u||² + 2 (u • v) + ||v||²
… = ||u||² + 2 ||u|| ||v|| cos(θ) + ||v||²
If u has a direction of 45° with the positive x-axis, v has a direction of 150°, then the angle between u and v is |45° - 150°| = 105°. So,
||w|| = √(||u||² + 2 ||u|| ||v|| cos(150°) + ||v||²)
… = √(10² + 2 • 10 • 13 cos(150°) + 13²)
… ≈ 14.2
Using the parallelogram rule for vector addition (see attached sketch), the sum of the angle between w and u and 45° is equal to the direction of w.
If φ is the angle between w and u, then
w • u = ||w|| ||u|| cos(φ)
… = 14.2 • 10 • cos(φ)
but we also have
w • u = (u + v) • u
… = (u • u) + (v • u)
… = ||u||² + ||u|| ||v|| cos(105°)
… = 10² + 10 • 13 • cos(105°)
… ≈ 66.4
Then
14.2 • 10 • cos(φ) ≈ 66.4
cos(φ) ≈ 0.467
φ ≈ 62.1°
and so the direction of w is 62.1° + 45° ≈ 107.1°.

Answer:
5/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Formula: y2-y1/x2-x1
Labeled:
(1,3)
1 = x2
3 = y2
(7,-12)
7= x1
-12 = x1
In order:
3+12 / 1-7
=15/6
which is simplified to 5/2
so when trying to find the slope of two points you want to use a certent formula which is y2 minus y1 over x2 minus x1 and if the x1 or y1 is negative it will be plus.
first you need to label them and then put them in the order you labeled them to the formula. After subtract or add and if you can simplify it then simplified it to get your answer.
this is the best way I can explain it, sorry
