Jacob and sumalee each improved their yards by planting daylilies and geraniums. They bought their supplies from the same store. Jacob spent $107 on 11 daylilies and 4 geraniums. Sumalee spent $60 on 4 daylilies and 12 geraniums. Find the cost of one daylilies and the cost of one geranium.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Daylily: $9

Geranium: $2

Step-by-step explanation:

1 daylily costs x.

1 geranium costs y.

11x + 4y = 107

4x + 12y = 60

Multiply the first equation by 3 and subtract the second equation from it.

29x = 261

x = 9

4x + 12y = 60

4(9) + 12y = 60

12y = 24

y = 2

Answer:

Daylily: $9

Geranium: $2

Answer 2

Answer:

1) Set up a system of equations. Assign each plant a variable. I used X for Daylillies and Y for Geraniums. In this case:

11x + 4y = 107

4x + 12y = 60

2) Get one variable by itsef. You can choose to either get the X or the Y by itself. For the sake of ease, I'll go with achieving X.

3) Using the equation 4x + 12y = 60, isolate the 4x.

4x = -12y + 60

4) Divide both sides by 4.

x = -3y + 15

5) X is isolated. Now plug in that isolated X into another remaining equation in order to isolate Y. Don't forget to combine like terms.

11(-3y + 15) + 4y = 107

-33y + 165 + 4y = 107

-29y + 165 = 107

-29y = -58

y = 2

6) You have your Y, which means that each Geranium costs $2 each. Now, you need to find X. Plug in Y into any of the first two equations that we started with.

4x + 12(2) = 60

4x + 24 = 60

4x = 36

x = 9

7) You now have both X and Y. Daylillies cost $9 each, and Geraniums cost $2 each.

8) You can double-check your answers by plugging in your final X and Y values into any of the first equations you wrote. If it comes out equal, it works.

Rectangle KLMN has vertices K(-5,6), L(-2,9), M(6, 1), and N(3,-2). Determine and state the coordinates of the point of intersection of the diagonals.

Answers

Answer:

(0.5,3.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we can draw the image, as shown. The diagonals in the rectangle are the following lines:

from (-2,9) to (3,-2)

from (-5, 6) to (6,1)

To find where they intersect, we can start by making an equation for the lines. For an equation y=mx+b, m represents the slope and b represents the y intercept, or when x=0

For the first line, from (-2,9) to (3,-2), we can calculate the slope by calculating the change in y/change in x = (y₂-y₁)/(x₂-x₁). If (3,-2) is (x₂,y₂) and (-2,9) is (x₁,y₁), our slope is

(-2-9)/(3-(-2)) = -11/5

Therefore, our equation is

y= (-11/5)x + b

To solve for b, we can plug a point in, like (3,-2). Therefore,

-2=(-11/5)*3+b

-2=-33/5+b

-10/5=-33/5+b

add 33/5 to both sides to isolate b

23/5=b

Our equation for one diagonal is therefore y=(-11/5)x+23/5

For the second line, from (-5, 6) to (6,1), if (6,1) is (x₁,y₁) and (-5,6) is (x₂,y₂), the slope is (1-6)/(6-(-5)) = -5/11 . Plugging (6,1) into the equation y=(-5/11)x+b, we have

1=(-5/11)*6+b

11/11 = -30/11 + b

add 30/11 to both sides to isolate b

41/11 = b

our equation is

y = (-5/11) x + 41/11

Our two equations are thus

y = (-5/11) x + 41/11

y=(-11/5)x+23/5

To find where they intersect, we can set them equal to each other

(-11/5)x+23/5 = y = (-5/11) x + 41/11

(-11/5)x + 23/5 = (-5/11)x + 41/11

subtract 23/5 from both sides as well as add 5/11 to both sides to make one side have only x values and their coefficients

(-11/5)x + (5/11)x = 41/11-23/5

11*5 = 55, so 55 is one value we can use to make the denominators equal.

(-11*11/5*11)x+(5*5/11*5)x=(41*5/11*5)-(23*11/5*11)

(-121/55)x+(25/55)x = (205/55) - (253/55)

(-96/55)x = (-48/55)

multiply both sides by 55 to remove the denominators

-96x=-48

divide both sides by -96 to isolate x

x=-48/-96=0.5

plug x=0.5 into a diagonal to see the y value of the intersection

(-11/5)x + 23/5 = y = (-11/5)* 0.5 + 23/5 = 3.5

R. White and Co. Has total profit of 6/7 million dollars. The spinning department gave a profit 1/4 of million dollars. Find the fraction of profit from other departments.

Answers

Answer:

Fraction of profit from other departments = 17/28

Step-by-step explanation:

Total profit of R. White and Co = 6/7 million dollars

Profit from the spinning department = 1/4 of million dollars

Fraction of profit from other departments = Total profit of R. White and Co - Profit from the spinning department

= 6/7 million dollars - 1/4 of million dollars

= 6/7 - 1/4

Lowest common multiple (LCM) of 7 and 4 is 28

= (24-7) / 28

= 17/28

Fraction of profit from other departments = 17/28

what system of equations represents this situation and how do you solve it?

Answers

Since Kirk starting reading on Saturday, I can make an equation of 20 + 20d. The equation for Lito is 20d. Therefore, the system of equations is 20 + 20d = 25d.

I can solve this like any other equation. Firstly, I can subtract 20d on the left hand side to give me 20 = 5d. Then, I can divide by 5. This gives me 4 = d, or d = 4. This means that it takes Lito 4 days to catch up. I can then multiply 20 * 4 and 25 * 4 to give me 100 pages.

The system of equations is 20 + 20d = 25d, and the amount of pages they each read is 100.

Answers

Answer:

f(x)^-1(x) =sqrt(x+5) -6

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = (x + 6)^2 - 5

y =  (x + 6)^2 - 5

Exchange x and y and solve for y

x = (y + 6)^2 - 5

Add 5 to each side

x+5 =  (y + 6)^2 - 5+5

x+5 =  (y + 6)^2

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(x+5 )= sqrt( (y + 6)^2 )

sqrt(x+5 )=(y + 6)

Subtract 6 from each side

sqrt(x+5 ) -6=y + 6-6

sqrt(x+5) -6 = y

What is the slope of the function? Then changed the line so it had a slope of 2, but still went through the same point. Which equation should Alejandra write to represent the new line?

Answers

Complete question is;

Alejandra correctly wrote the equation y – 3 = (1/5) (x – 10) to represent a line that her teacher sketched. The teacher then changed the line so it had a slope of 2, but still went through the same point. Which equation should Alejandra write to represent the new line?

Answer:

y – 3 = 2(x – 10)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the original line is;

y – 3 = (1/5) (x – 10)

This means the slope is 1/5 and the x and y coordinates are (10, 3) respectively.

Now, if she changes the slope to 2 and it still passed through the same point, then it means it's x and y points are still (10, 3). Thus, the equation will now be;

y – 3 = 2(x – 10)

How to find a linear equation?

A general linear equation is written as:

y = a*x + b

Where a is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

If we know that the line passes through two points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) then we can write the slope as:

[tex]a = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}[/tex]

In this case, the line passes through the points: (0, 0) and (-1/2, -3)

Then the slope is:

[tex]a = \frac{0 - (-3)}{0 - (-1/2)} = 6[/tex]

Then the line is of the form y = 6*x + b

To find the value of b, we use the fact that the line passes through the point (0, 0), then we have:

0 = 6*0 + b

0 = b

We can conclude that the line is y = 6*x
