7. Patrick wants to buy a new computer. He already has $275 saved and plans to save $125 each month. The price of
the computer is currently $1,850, but Patrick expects the price to drop by $100 each month. Patrick wants to
determine the number of months he will need to save
a) Ifx represents the number of months, then write an equation to represent A, the total amount Patrick saves
b) Ifx represents the number of months, then write an equation to represent the cost of the computer.
c) Use your equations from part "" and part to determine how many months he will need to save before he can
buy the computer. Show your work or explain how you got your answer.
d) If the price of the computer does not drop as expected, then how many months will it take Patrick to buy the
computer at its original cost? Show your work or explain how you got your answer.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A) A = 275 + 125x

B) 1850 - 100x

C) 7 months

D) 13 months

Step-by-step explanation:

He has $275 saved.

He plans to save $125 each month.

We are told that the computer is currently $1,850

And the price drops $100 each month.

Thus;

A) If x represents the number of months, then equation of the amount he will save is;

A = 275 + 125x

B) If x represents the number of months, then equation to represent the total cost is;

1850 - 100x

C) To find the Number of months he will need to save, we will equate gotten in question A to the equation gotten in question B. Thus;

275 + 125x = 1850 - 100x

Rearranging;

125x + 100x = 1850 - 275

225x = 1575

x = 1575/225

x = 7 months

D) If the price doesn't drop like he is anticipating, then the cost will still be $1850. Thus;

275 + 125x = 1850

125x = 1850 - 275

125x = 1575

x = 1575/125

x = 12.6 months

Approximating to the nearest whole number gives 13 months

A.
rectangle
B.
square
C.
trapezoid
D.
rhombus

Answers

Answer:  C) Trapezoid

Refer to the figure below. Note how sides BC and AD are parallel. We have exactly one pair of parallel sides, so that's why we have a trapezoid.

The figure with the vertices (0,0), (-1, 1), (6, 1), and (2, 0) is a trapezoid

What is a trapezoid?

The Trapezoid is a 4 sided polygon. Two sides of the shape are parallel to each other and they are termed as the bases of the trapezoid. The non-parallel sides are known as the legs or lateral sides of a trapezoid.

There are three types of trapezoids , and those are given below:

a) Isosceles Trapezoid

b) Scalene Trapezoid

c) Right Trapezoid

The area of the Trapezoid is given by

Area of Trapezoid = ( ( a + b ) h ) / 2

where , a = shorter base of trapezium

b = longer base of trapezium

h = height of trapezium

Given data ,

Let the coordinates of the figure be represented as ABCD

Now , the vertices of the figure is

A ( 0 , 0 ) , B ( -1 , 1 ) , C ( 6 , 1 ) and D ( 2 , 0 )

On plotting the coordinates in the graph , we get a trapezoid with

The longer base = BC

The shorter base = AD

So , the figure is a trapezoid

Hence , the vertices represents a trapezoid

Answer:

Your answer will be B

Step-by-step explanation:

Because you find the difference between 14 and 22 or the difference between 22 and 30 or the difference between 30 and 38. and so on then it will be 8

You then say ok 8 times x so for example 8×1 = 8 then you say ok 22 - 8= 22. So it will be 8x+14...

I hope this helped if not tell me please....❤

Answer: Option B (y=8x+14)

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve these kind of question we just simply keep on inserting the values of x and if we get the required value of y that is in the table that equation is our answer, For example lets take Option A,

y = 8x

If we insert x = 0 we get,

y = 8(0)

y=0

but in the table it says we get 14 so option A is incorrect

Like this we keep checking for more values and all the values of x satisfy our equation in Option B like this,

y=8x+14

y=8(0)+14

y=14

y=8x+14

y=8(1)+14

y=8+14

y=22

y=8x+14

y=8(2)+14

y=16+14

y=30

and so on. Now your answer would be Option B.

A child weighs 44 lbs. The physician orders a medication for 10 mg/Kg/day. What do you give per day? (Use 0.45 for your conversion

Answers

Answer:

198 mg

Step-by-step explanation:

A child weighs 44 lbs.

Step 1

We convert the child's weight to kg

1 Ibs = 0.45kg

44 Ibs = x

Cross Multiply

1 Ibs × x = 44 Ibs × 0.45 kg

x = 44 Ibs × 0.45 kg/1 Ibs

x = 19.8 kg

Step 2

The physician orders a medication for 10 mg/Kg/day.

From the above statement, we know that:

10mg = 1 kg

Hence, what you give per day is calculated as:

1 kg = 10 mg

19.8kg = x

Cross Multiply

1 kg × x = 19.8kg × 10mg

x = 19.8kg × 10mg/1kg

x = 198mg

Therefore, what you will give per day to a child of 19.8kg(44 Ibs) is 198mg per day

The tennis courts are 3 blocks west and 2 blocks south of Miguel’s house. The bike path is 5 blocks east and 2 blocks south of Miguel’s house. How many blocks are the tennis courts from the bike path?

Answers

Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

If Miguel's house is (0,0), then the tennis court is (-3,-2), and the bike path is (5,-2). There fore, we can just count the squares between the tennis court and the bike path, which is 8.

Hope that this helps!

From the coordinate calculation, here tennis courts are 8 blocks far from the bike path.

Given that,
The tennis courts are 3 blocks west and 2 blocks south of Miguel’s house. The bike path is 5 blocks east and 2 blocks south of Miguel’s house. How many blocks are the tennis courts from the bike path is to be detemined.


What is coordinate?

Coordinate, is represented as the values on the x-axis and the y-axis of the graph.

Here on the graph,
Assume that Miguel's house is (0,0),
then accoding to the question the tennis court is (-3,-2), and the bike path is (5,-2).
Now, difference in the position dx = 5 - (-3)
                                                    = 8

Thus, from the coordinate calculation, here tennis courts are 8 blocks far from the bike path.

A quadratic is represented by

A quadratic equation only has one term that is second degree.( meaning if x and y are both to the 2nd degree, it will not be a quadratic, it will be a circle.

The 3rd equation is a quadratic.

The fifth equation has a leading coefficient at the degree of 1 so it is other(linear)

This language derives from the area of a square being its side length multiplied by itself. The word "quadratic" comes from quadratum, the Latin word for square.

What is a quadratic function?

f(x) = ax2 + bx + c, where a, b, and c are numbers and an is not equal to zero, is a quadratic function. A parabola is the shape of a quadratic function's graph.

Select the correct answer from each drop-down menu. Mallory goes to the farmers market every weekend. She buys six apples for $0.75 each and a bagful of oranges that are priced at $1.25 per orange. The total charge is $14.50. Write the equation representing this situation where n represents the number of oranges.

Answers

Answer:

a) The equation for the situation = 14.50 = 4.5 + 1.25n

b) The number of oranges she bought = 8 oranges

Step-by-step explanation:

Where n represents the number of oranges.

The equation is written as

Total charge = $0.75 × 6 + $1.25 × n

$14.50 = $0.75 × 6 + $1.25 × n

14.50 = 4.5 + 1.25n

1.25n = 14.5 - 4.5

1.25n = 10

n = 10 / 1.25

n = 8 oranges
