Jillian is selling boxes of cookies to raise money for her basketball team. The 10 oz. box costs $3.50, while the 16 oz. box costs $5.00. At the end of one week, she collected $97.50, selling a total of 24 boxes. The system of equations that models her sales is below. x+ y= 24 3.50x + 5.00y = 97.50 Solve the system of equations. How many 10 oz. boxes were sold?

Answers

Answer 1
The answer would be 15 boxes!
Answer 2

Answer:

There are 15 boxes of 10 oz boxes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of boxes of 10 oz = x

and let the number of boxes of 16 oz = y

By the statement

"Total number of boxes sold is 24"

Equation for the statement will be

x + y =24 ---------------(1)

By the  statement

"she collected $97.50 while rate of 10 oz box is $3.50 and rate of 16 oz box is $5.00."

Equation for the statement will be

1.5x + 5y = $97.50 ------------(2)

From equation (1) we put the value of y = 24 - x in equation (2)

1.5x + 5(24 - x) =  97.50

1.5x + 120 - 5x = 97.50

-3.5x = 97.50 - 120

3.5x = 22.50

x = [tex]\frac{22.5}{1.5}[/tex]

x = 15

Therefore, number of 10 oz boxes is 15.

Please explain how to do this

Answers

that is how you solve and the answer
The answer would be 8%. To do this, all I did was multiply each percentage by $4.50 to get the sales tax. After the multiplication, you can add your sales tax to $4.50. You can do this on each percentage until you match the final price, $4.86.

Here's my work for 8%:

8% x 4.50
=0.08 x 4.50
=0.36

4.50+0.36=4.86.

L1 and L2 are parallel lines
the equation of L1 is y= 3x + 2
L2 passes through the point (3,4)
find an equation for L2

Answers

y = 3x + 2. The slope here is 3. A parallel line will have the same slope.

y = mx + b
slope(m) = 3
(3,4)...x = 3 and y = 4
now we sub and find b, the y int
4 = 3(3) + b
4 = 9 + b
4 - 9 = b
-5 = b

so ur other line, L2 is : y = 3x - 5 <==
The slope for 2 parallel lines is always the same so the slope will remain 3.(m=3)
To find the y intercept you have to replace the y and x with the 2 points given and the m with the slope and simplify.
so, y=mx+b
(4)=(3)(4)+b
4=12 +b
8=b
then plug in the intercept and the slope into the slope intercept equation and there is your answer.
y=3x+8

For 35, we multiply them out to get 0.83*10^2 (we subtract exponents when dividing). Since scientific notation is one integer from 1-9 followed by a decimal, we move 0.83 one place to the right and therefore remove one power from 10^2, getting 8.3*10

The second of two numbers is 5 more than twice the first. Their sum is 80. Find the numbers.....Thanms

Answers

This is a simple equation; "x" is the first number and (5+2x) is the second number because it is "5 more than twice the first" and the sum = 80. So... x + (5+2x) = 80 You start by subtracting "x" and moving it to the other side...5 + 2x = 80 - x Then you add the "x" to the other side...5 + 3x = 80 Next, subtract 5 to the other side...3x = 75 Finally, divide the 3 to the other side...x = 75/3...x = 25 25 is the first number so you then multiply it by 2 and add five to get the final answer. 25 + 55 = 80

What is a ratio?

A ratio is a comparison of two attributes of a similar kind.

Based on the random sample, the number of students doing household chores for at least two hours every week =64+3+1 =68

Out of 100, the number of students doing household chores for at least two hours every week = 68

So, out of 1, the number of students doing household chores for at least two hours every week = 68/100

So, out of 1500, the number of students doing household chores for at least two hours every week = (68/100)*1500 =1020

Thus, there will be 1020 students in the school doing household chores for at least two hours every week.

find the measure of an angle whose supplement measures seventeen times its measure

Answers

supplement angles, sum = 180
lets x =  angle
its supplement = 180 - x

x + 17x = 180
18x = 180
x = 10
180 -10 = 170

answer
angle = 10
its supplement  = 170

Final answer:

The measure of an angle whose supplement is seventeen times larger than the angle itself is 10 degrees.

Explanation:

We are looking to find the measure of an angle that is said to have its supplement measure seventeen times larger than the angle itself. In terms of mathematical relationships, this means that if we call the angle in question x, then its supplement would be 17x. We know that supplementary angles add up to 180 degrees, hence we can write the equation x + 17x = 180. By solving this equation, we find that 18x = 180, and therefore x = 180÷18 which simplifies to x = 10. So the measure of the angle we are looking for is 10 degrees.

Each day, Jake donates money to the global hunger initiative according to how many lunch specials he sells. What is the constant of proportionality in money per lunch special?

Answers

Since it's y/x, and x is what you input into the function (and y is what you get out), we get that the amount donated is based off of the lunch specials, so we get y(12)/x(60)=12/60=1/5

Answer: 1/5

Explanation: Since, according to the given figure,

Jake spends money for 60 lunch special= 12 unit

Therefore, In this case, money per lunch= 12/60=1/5

Jake spends money for 45 lunch special=9 unit

Therefore, In this case, money per lunch= 9/45=1/5

Jake spends money for 30 lunch special=6 unit

Therefore, In this case, money per lunch= 9/45=1/5

Again, Jake spends money for 15 lunch special=3 unit

Therefore, In this case, money per lunch= 3/15=1/5

Thus, from the above explanation it is clear that the money per lunch is same for every condition and is equal to 1/5.

The school’s guidance department compares the grade-point averages and standardized state test scores for 10 students in each grade. The table below shows the correlation coefficient for each data set.


Answers

Ok, so to see which data sets is reasonable for a linear regression model square each set and if it is close to one it will be reasonable. 

[tex]r^{2}[/tex]
9th grade 0.3 = [tex]0.3^{2}[/tex] = 0.09
10th grade –0.1 = [tex]-0.1^{2}[/tex] = 0.01
11th grade 0.2 = [tex]0.2^{2}[/tex] = 0.04
12th grade –0.8 = [tex]-0.8^{2}[/tex] = 0.64

So 12th grade data set is reasonable but the others are not because they are not remotely close to 1.



The 12th-grade data set represents the linear regression because the value of the correlation coefficient for the 12th-grade students is near the -1 which shows a perfect negative linear regression

What is correlation?

It is defined as the relation between two variables which is a quantitative type and gives an idea about the direction of these two variables.

The correlaton coeffiecient is given as below:

For 9th grade = 0.3

For 10th grade = -0.1

For 11th grade = 0.2

For 12th grade = -0.8

We know that for perfect linear regression the value of the correlation coefficient is 1 or -1

As we can see from the data given the nearest value of the correlation coefficient is -0.8 which is the correlation coefficient for the 12th grade.

Thus, the 12th-grade data set represents the linear regression because the value of the correlation coefficient for the 12th-grade students is near the -1 which shows a perfect negative linear regression.

Factor expression 42x+49

Answers

Final answer:

To factor the expression 42x+49, we find the GCF which is 7, and express the expression as 7(6x + 7).

Explanation:

The question focuses on the task to factor the expression 42x+49. Factoring is a mathematical process in which we express a number or an algebraic expression as the product of its factors, which are usually simpler or more basic expressions.

To factor the given expression, we look for the greatest common factor (GCF) that both terms share. In this case, the GCF of 42x and 49 is 7. We factor the 7 out:

42x + 49 = 7(6x + 7)

The factored form is 7(6x + 7), which is the simplest form of the expression where 7 is a common factor multiplied by the binomial 6x+7.

Answer:

A proportional relationship is "two quantities vary directly with each other."

Example:

The amount of gasoline you fill in your car and the amount you pay is a proportional relationship.

If 1 gallon of gasoline is $3, then the cost of 3 gallons of gasoline is $9.

Step-by-step explanation:

A relationship is between two quantities.

A proportional relationship is "two quantities vary directly with each other."

Say, if the quantity "x" increases, then the associated quantity "y" also increases.

For example,

y = 2x

Let's find the data.

x                y

0                 0

1                  2

2                 4

3                  6

As you can see when the value of "x" increases, the value of "y" also increases.

This is called proportional relationship.

Example:

The amount of gasoline you fill in your car and the amount you pay is a proportional relationship.

If 1 gallon of gasoline is $3, then the cost of 3 gallons of gasoline is $9.
