Jacqui is selling scented candles as a fundraiser for a school field trip. Each cinnamon candle sells for $3.50 and each chocolate candle sells for $2.50. She raised a total of $94.50 for the trip. The number of chocolate candles that Jacqui sold is three less than twice the number of cinnamon candles. Let c represent the number of chocolate candles and let m represent the number of cinnamon candles. How many chocolate candles did Jacqui sell?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Number of cinammon = 12

Number of chocolate = 21

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Cost of Cinnamon candle , c = $3.50

Cost of chocolate candle , d = $2.50

Total amount raised, T = $94.50

d = 2c - 3

Total amount = (cost of Cinnamon * number sold) + (cost of chocolate * number sold)

94.50 = (3.50 * c) + (2.50 * (2c-3))

94.50 = 3.50c + 5c - 7.5

94.50 = 8.50c - 7.5

94.50 + 7.5 = 8.50c

102 = 8.50c

c = 102 / 8.50

c = 12

d = 2c - 3

d = 2(12) - 3

d = 24 - 3

d = 21

Answer:

AC=11.38 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The Law of Cosines

It relates the length of the sides of a triangle with one of its internal angles.

Let a,b, and c be the length of the sides of a given triangle, and x the included angle between sides a and b, then the following relation applies:

[tex]c^2=a^2+b^2-2ab\cos x[/tex]

The figure shows two triangles and we are required to calculate the length of the side AC, knowing two sides and the angle between them. Thus, applying the formula:

[tex]AC^2=17^2+13^2-2*17*13*\cos42^\circ[/tex]

[tex]AC^2=289+169-442*0.7431[/tex]

[tex]AC^2=129.53[/tex]

[tex]AC=\sqrt{129.53}[/tex]

AC=11.38 cm

If the measure of two sides of the triangle are 3 feet's and 7 feet's, which is the least possible whole number measure for the third side

Answers

Answer:

5 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

By triangle inequality, the sum of lengths of any two sides has to be strictly greater than the length of the third side.

Let x feet be the length of the third side.

We have 3+x>7, x+7>3 and 3+7>x.

Solving these, we get x > 4, x > -4 and x < 10.

The solution is therefore 4 < x < 10 and the smallest whole number which satisfies the inequality is 5.

Therefore the answer is 5 feet.

Answer:

  a) $336

  b) $1036

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The interest is computed using the formula ...

  I = Prt

where P is the amount invested at rate r for t years.

  I = $700·0.08·6 = $336

The interest earned is $336.

__

b) The balance of the account is the sum of the original amount and the interest earned:

  balance = $700 +336 = $1036

The balance of the account is $1036.

Craig's Bakery recently spent a total of $311 on new equipment, and their average hourly operating costs are $9. Their average hourly receipts are $10. The bakery will soon make back the amount it invested in equipment. How many hours will that take? What would the total expenses and receipts both equal?

Answers

Answer:

a. 311 hours

b. i. $3,100 in receipts  

   ii. $2,799 in expenses.

Step-by-step explanation:

a. The company is making $10 per hour and spending $9 an hour. Their profit is therefore:

= 10 - 9

= $1 per hour

Since they spent $311 on the new equipment, the amount of time it would take for them to make this back is:

= 311 / 1

= 311 hours

b. In 311 hours, the total receipts would be:

= 311 * 10

= $3,110

The expenses would be:

= 311 * 9

= $2,799
