4. Ann bought four pens and three exercise books for a total of sh 17 while peter bought five
similar pens and two exercise books for a total of sh.16 find the cost of a pen and an exercise
book.​

Answers

Answer 1
4X+3Y=17
5X+2Y=16

Times 5=20X+15Y=85
Times 4=20X+8Y=64

7Y=21
Y=3,X=2
Answer 2

Answer:

pen = 2    book = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

p= pens

b=books

4p +3b =17

5p+2b=16

Multiply the first by 5

Multiply the second by -4

Add both (p variable will ce cancelled)

20p +15b = 85

-20p  -8b = -64

           7b = 21

              b=3        (book =3)

Lets plug this in one of the equations

4p + 3x3 = 17

4p +9 0 19

4p = 8

p= 2   (pencil = 2)

N January, the price of a dozen eggs at a grocery store was $0.89. By June, the price had increased to $0.99. What was the percent of increase in the price, to the nearest tenth of a percent?

Answers

11.236% increase
hope this helped

The initial price of eggs is $0.89 which is then increased to $0.99, so the percentage increase in the price is 11.23%.

What is Percentage?

The Latin term "per centum," which signifies "by the hundredth," was the source of the English word "percentage." Segments with a denominator of 100 are considered percentages. In other terms, it is a relationship where the worth of the entire is always considered to be 100.

As per the given data in the question,

The price of dozen eggs = $0.89

The price increase by June = $0.99

The percentage increase in the price,

% increase = (0.99 - 0.89)/0.89 × 100

% increase = 11.2%

Therefore, the increase is 11.2%.

The cost of the food is $500
The members of the soccer team will be selling tickets to the silent auction. A ticket to the silent auction includes chances to win prizes and dinner. The ticket cost is set so that 45 tickets will pay for the cost of the prizes and food.

Build a function that can be used to find the total profit, f(x), the soccer team earns by selling x tickets. Show your work to build this function.

Answers

Answer:69

Step-by-step explanation:

A) $16

B) p(x) = 16x -800

C) 69 ticketsn:

A) The total of expenses is ...

$280 +100 +20 +400 = $800

If this is covered by 50 tickets, then a ticket must provide revenue of ...

$800/50 = $16

The cost per ticket is $16.

__

B) The profit is the difference between revenue and expenses. The revenue from sale of x tickets will be 16x. The expenses are fixed at 800, so the profit is ...

p(x) = 16x -800

__

C) We can find the number of tickets to sell (x) in order for profit to be at least $300 by solving the inequality ...

p(x) ≥ 300

16x -800 ≥ 300 . . . . . use the expression for p(x)

16x ≥ 1100 . . . . . . . . . add 800

x ≥ 68.75 . . . . . . . . . . divide by 16 . . . (the least satisfactory integer is 69)

In order to raise at least $300, the number of tickets sold must be at least 69.

(The paper this is one is due tmr. Help)

Answers

Answer:

4.49 more yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

If 8 yards of fabric cost $35.60

then let  x yards cost $20

cross multiply

35.60*x= 20*8

35.60*x= 160

x= 160/35.60

x= $4.49

Hence the $20 will purchase 4.49 more yards

9. Find DP
please help!!!!!!

Answers

Answer:

DP = 15.

Step-by-step explanation:

I am assuming that DP EP and FP are peroemdicular bisectors of the sides of ABC.

D is the midpoint of AB so

2x + 14 = 8x - 52

14+52 = 8x - 2x

6x = 66

x = 11.

So side AD = 2(11) + 14 = 36.

Now PC = PA = 39.

So by pythagoras:

DP^2 = AP^2 - AD^2

= 39^2-36^2 = 225

DP = sqrt 225

= 15.

Slope: 3/5

7x+2y=47
5x-4y=1
use elimination method

Answers

Answer:

x=5, y=6

Step-by-step explanation:

7x+2y=47

5x-4y=1

to use elimination method , you want to add the two equations together so that either x or y cancels out. For these equations, we will multiply the first equation by 2. (This will cancel out y value)

2(7x+2y)=2(47)

14x+4y =94

————————

add above equation to second equation:

14x+4y=94 above equation

5x-4y=1 second equation

19x=95 added together

x=5

—————————————

‘solve for y by substituting x value (5) into either original equation

5x-4y=1

5(5)-4y=1

25-4y=1

-4y=-24

y=6

The rain was coming down very slowly, making it look as though we were trapped inside a giant cloud. I looked around at the other runners. They were all cold and tired and happy to be finished. Some people were giving out hot chocolate and it looked good so I decided to get myself a cup. The hot cup felt like fire in my frozen hands. After a while it cooled down, and slowly I drank. It tasted good. Just then, someone touched my shoulder and I turned around to see that it was Genevieve."Good job!" she said enthusiastically."Thanks," I said, feeling so cold and tired I could hardly talk."I bet that tastes good," she said, pointing to the hot chocolate."Yes, it does," I said. "How did you do?""What," she said, "In the race?""Yeah.""Oh," she said, "I did all right." We stood there for a few minutes, long enough for me to realize I was shivering. I felt like I was getting sick. "So," Genevieve said, "want to get out of this rain?""Sure," I said immediately, sounding perhaps a bit too eager.We walked down the hill to my car, which sat slumped under the branch of a big oak tree. A mud puddle had formed around it and we had to tiptoe or our shoes would get all muddy. Arriving at the driver's side door, I unlocked the car and satfellonto the hard leather seat, rubbing my hands together, trying to get warm. I turned the key and the engine started. After a while, sweet, warm air began pouring out of the vents. I felt sleepy sitting back in the seat, nearly nodding off, until I noticed something from the corner of my eye. A man was running down the hill, waving his arms. "Wait!" he was saying. It looked like he was talking to us.I cracked the window, just enough to talk without letting the rain in. "What?" I said, looking at him, perplexed, unable to figure out what he was doing. Without answering, he glanced inside the car and walked over to the passenger side. He knocked on the window and held something up in his hand and courteously Genevieve opened the door to address him."You forgot this," he said, handing her a shiny gold medallion. It took a moment for me to comprehend what it was: a medal, first place. He smiled, waved goodbye, and tiptoed back up the hill. I still didn't understand what had just happened. Genevieve closed the door and sat back in her seat. She tucked the medal away inside a pocket just as I turned to face her."You won?" I asked her, incredulously."Oh. Yeah," she said, nearly rolling her eyes."Oh," I said, surprised. "Wow."She didn't elaborate. She didn't need to. And it was in that moment that I realized Genevieve was different. Not different, but she just wasn't really who I thought she was.The car interior went quiet and all I could hear was the sound of the rain falling gently upon the windshield. We sat there watching it form little rivers as it raced down the glass. The warm air coming out of the vents felt so good, I don't think either of us wanted to move. We just sat there. After while, I started to feel a little embarrassed, and I think Genevieve knew what I was thinking. Then she looked at me."Want to get some lunch?" she said. Her voice, breaking the silence, sounded like a hammer coming down upon a sheet of glass."What?" I said. It took me a second to register her suggestion."Like a sandwich or something.""Oh," I said. The sound of food made my stomach rumble. "Sure." I put the car in reverse and we sloshed our way out of the muddy parking lot.No sources were consulted in the composition of this passage.Challenge QuestionWhat's thisGenevieve can best be described asAfamished, meaning extremely hungryBbizarre, meaning strange or weirdCfeeble, meaning weak or delicateDhumble, meaning not overly proud or arrogant 3(x6)=12 what is the answer pls Mara Rodriquez Single-payment loan of $1,000 Interest rate of 7% Ordinary interest for 108 days What is the interest owed?
