A restaurant catered a party for 40 people. A child’s dinner (c) cost $11 and an adult’s dinner (a) cost $20. The total cost of the dinner was $728. How many children and adults were at the party? Use the table to guess and check.

8 children and 32 adults
9 children and 31 adults
10 children and 30 adults
12 children and 28 adults

Answers

Answer 1

a+c=40

c=40-a

11c +20a=728

11(40-a)+20a=728

440-11a +20a=728

440+9a=728

9a = 288

a=288/9 = 32

32 adults

8 children

Answer 2
a + c = 40
20a + 11c = 728

Multiply equation # 1 by -11, then add the two equations together to clear the 'c' variable and solve for 'a'.

-11(a + c = 40)


20a + 11c = 728
-11a - 11c = -440
------------------------
9a  = 288
Divide both sides by 9
a = 32

a + c = 40
32 + c = 40
subtract 32 from both sides
c = 8

What is the range of y=sec x

Answers


y≤-1, y≥1 is the range of y=sec x

The values where cos(x) is equal to 0 are excluded from the domain of the function y=sec(x)=1cos(x), or the values 2+n for all integers n. The function's range is either y<=1 or y>=1.

What is  domain?

The domain of a function is the set of values that we are allowed to plug into our function. This set is the x values in a function such as f(x).

here, we have,

we know that  "secant function" mean:

Its root is the Latin verb secare, which means "to cut." Any line that intersects a circle twice is referred to as a secant line, and you can conceive of this line as slicing the circle in half. The distance from the origin to the point where the tangent line intersects the x-axis is the secant function.

now,  the identity of the sec is:

1/cos(x) = sec(x) Cot (x) = 1/Tan (x)

What are the x- and y- coordinates of point E, which partitions the directed line segment from J to K into a ratio of 1:4?

Answers

To solve this problem, we are given the formulas for our new x and y. To use this formula, we must first establish our points 1 and 2. Since the problem specifically directed the point E which partitions the line segment “from J to K”, therefore

point 1 = point J                = (x1, y1)

point 2 = point K = (x2, y2)

The variables m and n indicates the portion of partition segment JE and EK that takes up from the original segment. Since the ratio is 1:4, then:

JE = m = 1

EK = n = 4

Therefore calculating for x and y using the given formulas:

x = [1 / (1 + 4)] (25 – (-15)) + (-15)

x = -7

 

y = [1 / (1 + 4)] (15 – (-5)) + (-5)

y = -1

 

Therefore the coordinates of point E is (-7, -1)

The x- and y- coordinates of point E (-7,-1)

Further explanation

In the coordinates of the two-dimensional plane (xy) there is a position vector.

Two dimensions because the coordinates are only x and y, three dimensions if the coordinates are x, y, and z.

If there is a point P then

You can write P as:

P = xi + yi

where i denotes the unit vector in the x and y directions

While the size of the vector:

[tex]\displaystyle P = \sqrt{x^2+y^2}[/tex]

and its direction

[tex]\displaystyle \theta=arc\:tan\:\frac{y}{x}[/tex]

If a point C divides the line segment AB by the ratio m: n, then the coordinates of point C can be formulated:

[tex]\displaystyle \vec{C}=\frac{m\vec{b}+n\vec{a}}{m+n}[/tex]

Coordinate x :

[tex]\displaystyle x=\frac{m.x_2+n.x_1}{m+n}[/tex]

Coordinate y :

[tex]\displaystyle y=\frac{m.y_2+n.y_1}{m+n}[/tex]

line segment from J to K into a ratio of 1:4, then m = 1 and n = 4

(x1,y1) from point  J= (-15,-5)

(x2,y2) from point  K= (25,15)

So coordinates of point E :

Coordinate x :

[tex]\displaystyle x=\frac{1.25+4.-15}{5}[/tex]

x = -7

Coordinate y :

[tex]\displaystyle y=\frac{1.15+4.-5}{5}[/tex]

y = -1

Yasir designs bracelets. He uses between 9 and 15 red and yellow beads in a ratio of 2 red beads to 5 yellow beads. Drag the beads into the box to meet these requirements.

Answers

For 2 red beads, Yasir uses 5 yellow beads,

2+5=7 is less that the total number of beads per bracelet.

so we multiply both (2 and 5) by 2, and get (4 and 10) red beads and yellow beads.

4+10=14, so the total number is between 9 and 15 as required.

4 red beads

find the volume of the shaded solid. Round your answer to 2 decimal places if necessary. Use pi=3.14 when necessary. cylinder with these 6ft, 18ft, 30 ft.

Answers

Ok so what we have is a large cylinder with a hollow cylindrical tube running thru the center. The volume of the shaded region should be the volume of the entire large cylinder (C) minus the volume of the small cylindrical tube (c): C - c
The volume of any cylinder is the area of the top circle (pi×r^2) times the height (h) of the cylinder, where r=radius of the circle. So: h×pi×r^2
The heights are the same for C and c, so we can call that h in both, which = 30ft. Now C's radius (R) = 1/2 of diameter, which is 18ft. So R = 9ft
c's radius (r) is 1/2 of its diameter, which is 6ft. So r = 3ft. Now we can set it up:
C - c = (h×pi×R^2) - (h×pi×r^2)
*since the h and pi in both formulae are multiplied by the other variable, we can factor that out:
h×pi(R^2) - h×pi(r^2) = h×pi(R^2-r^2)
h×pi = 30ft.×3.14 = 94.2ft. -->
94.2ft(9ft^2-3ft^2) = 94.2ft(81-9ft^2)
= 94.2ft(72ft^2) = 6782.4 ft.^3

The best answer is:  "2" ;  which is the "mode".

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that the collected data as follows:

As we know that there are three measures of central tendency.

1) Mean is given by

2) Media of 0, 0, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 14 is given by

3) Mode of 0,0,1,1,2,2,2,14 = 2as 2 is occurring most of the times, but we know that median is the best measure to find the center. Hence, Median is the best measure and its value is 1.5.

Find the sum of this infinite geometric series where a1=0.3 and r=0.55

Answers

Hello, Marymack!


We know that in a geometric sequence defined by [tex]\mathsf{a_1}[/tex] and [tex]\mathsf{r}[/tex] , the sum can be calculated the following way:

[tex]\mathsf{S_n = \dfrac{a_1}{1-r}}\\ \\ \\ \\ \mathsf{S_n = \dfrac{0.3}{1-0.55}}\\ \\ \\ \mathsf{S_n = \dfrac{0.3}{0.45}}\\ \\ \\ \boxed{\mathsf{S_n = \dfrac{2}{3}=0.666...}}[/tex]

Answer:

The sum of the infinite geometric sequence is given by:

[tex]S_{\infty} = \frac{a_1}{1-r}[/tex]          ....[1]

where,

[tex]a_1[/tex] is the first term

r is the common ratio.

As per the statement:

Given that [tex]a_1 = 0.3[/tex] and r = 0.55

To find the sum of this infinite geometric series.

Substitute the given values in [1] we have;

[tex]S_{\infty} = \frac{0.3}{1-0.55}[/tex]

⇒[tex]S_{\infty} = \frac{0.3}{0.45}[/tex]

Simplify:

[tex]S_{\infty} \approx 0.67[/tex]

Therefore,  the sum of this infinite geometric series approximate is, 0.67

find the solution of the system of equations 2x-4y=32 2x-8y=48

Answers

2x-4y=32
2x-8y=48
--------------subtract
4y = - 16
y  = -4

2x-4y=32 
2x- 4(-4)=32 
2x + 16 = 32
2x = 16
x = 8

answer
(8, -4)
2x - 4y = 32
2x - 8y = 48

Multiple equation 2 by -1 so the 'x' variables will cancel.
-1(2x - 4y = 32)
-2x + 4y = - 32
 2x - 8y = 48
-------------------- add
     - 4y = 16      divide both sides by -4
         y = -4
Plug -4 back into either equation and solve for y.
2x - 4y = 32
2x -4(-4) = 32
2x + 16 = 32  subtract 16 from both sides
2x = 16          divide both sides by 2
x = 8

We have to solve the equation for x

4x+5=3x+4

subtracting both sides by 4

4x+1=3x

subtracting both sides by 4x
