Lucia gave Brenda half of the cash she had in the store counter at the end of the day. Brenda put the money in her purse and added one half of the amount she had from her own savings. Brenda had saved half of what Lucia earned in the store that day. Brenda took her purse and went to the dog shelter and brought food and treat packet for 5 dogs. Each packet cost her $15. How much money did Lucia earn at the store that day?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

$100

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount Lucia gave Brenda = Half the amount in the store counter

The amount Brenda added to the money Lucia gave her = Half the amount in her (Brenda) savings

The amount Brenda had saved = Half of the amount Lucia earned in the store that day

The number of food and treat packets Brenda bought = 5

The cost of each packet = $15

Let x represent the amount Lucia earned and let y represent the amount Brenda saved

We have;

x/2 = y

x/2 + y/2 = 15 × 5 = 75

Therefore, we get;

y + y/2 = 75

(3/2)·y = 75

y = 75 × 2/3 = 50

y = 50

From x/2 = y, we have;

x/2 = 50

x = 2 × 50 = 100

The amount Lucia earned in her store that day, x = $100

Answer:

16 direct

17 indirect

Step-by-step explanation:

16.

If it is a direct variation

y/x = constant

4/-2  -2

-8/4 = -2

-12/6 = -2

This is a direct variation

17.

y/x = -1/2 /-2 = 1/4

y/x = -1/-1 = 1

This is not a direct variation

If it is an indirect variation then

yx = constant

-1/2 * -2 = 1

-1*-1 =1

3 * 1/3 =1

This is an indirect variation


Find the missing side or angle.
Round to the nearest tenth.
b=3
a=9
c=11
C= ?

Answers

Answer:

C=125°

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

To find angle C, we can use the cosine law:

[tex]cosC=\frac{a^2+b^2-c^2}{2ab}[/tex]

Plug in the given information

[tex]cosC=\frac{9^2+3^2-11^2}{2(9)(3)}[/tex]

[tex]cosC=\frac{-31}{54}[/tex]

[tex]C=cos^-^1(\frac{-31}{54})[/tex]

[tex]C=cos^-^1(\frac{-31}{54})\\C=125[/tex]

Therefore, angle C is approximately 125 degrees.

Captain Liz is going to load her cruise ship with bags of sugar. She has room for 19 bags of sugar. She has allotted for 121 pounds of sugar on her ship. She can choose from 7-pound bags (the variable s) or 10-pound bags (the variable p). Which equations would be a constraint to Captain Liz maximizing her sugar load?

Correct answers with explanations will earn you brainliest :)

Answers

Answer:

[tex]19 = s + p[/tex] and [tex]121 = 7s + 10p[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

First we use constraints given by the problem to set up two equations:

We can only have a total of 19 bags, so:

[tex]19 = s + p[/tex]

Then, we want to maximize her sugar load. Using the info on the weight of each bag and the max carrying capacity:

[tex]121 = 7s + 10p[/tex]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the sugar from 7 pound bags be represented by = s

And let the sugar from 10 pound bags be represented by = p

As given, Captain Liz has room for 19 bags of sugar.

This becomes [tex]s+p=19[/tex]      .......(1)

Also given is , she has room for 19 bags of sugar, so equation becomes:

[tex]7s+10p=121[/tex]     ............(2)

Hence, these are the correct equations.

Step-by-step explanation:

144,5/170×100 =85%

Answer:

200 students in total

Step-by-step explanation:

Mr.Cruz is the director of an after-school program. He says that 170 students, or 85% of the students in his program, went on to attend college. A parent wants to know the total number of students in the program.

?/T = 85%

Where T = Total

85% = 170 students

Set-up the dimensions like this!

part/whole = part/whole

170/T = 85%/100

Multiply 170 by 100

170 • 100 = 17000

Then divided by 85

17000 divided by 85 = 200

Reflection across the x-axis reflection across the y-axis reflection across y = x reflection across y=−x I NEED HELP PLS The answer choies are: A. Reflection across the x-axis B. Reflection across the y-axis C. Reflection across y = x D. Reflection across y=−x

Answers

Answer:  D) reflection across y = -x

Explanation:

When we reflect over y = x, we basically swap x and y. So for instance, the point (3,1) becomes (1,3).

When reflecting over y = -x, we will do the same thing but we'll make each coordinate swap in sign from positive to negative (or vice versa). The rule for reflecting over y = -x is [tex](x,y) \to (-y,-x)[/tex]

So if we apply that rule to point A(3,1) then it becomes A ' (-1, -3).

Similarly, B(1,5) moves to B ' (-5, -1)

Finally, C(6,9) becomes C ' (-9, -6)

2. What are the last 2 digits of 1 + 2 + 3 + + 2005 2006​

Answers

Let S be the sum. So you have

S = 1 + 2 + 3 + … + 2004 + 2005 + 2006

as well as

S = 2006 + 2005 + 2004 + … + 3 + 2 + 1

Then

2S = (1 + 2006) + (2 + 2005) + … + (2005 + 2) + (2006 + 1)

2S = 2007 + 2007 + … + 2007 + 2007

2S = 2006 × 2007

S = (2006 × 2007)/2

S = 2,013,021

which makes the last two digits 21.

The value of y is 3.

Answer:

Solution given;

y+y+3=-y+y+9

subtract both side by 3

2y=6

divide both side by 2

2y/2=6/2

y=3

Answer:

y = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

y + 3 = –y + 9

Add y to each side

y+y + 3 = –y +y+ 9

2y +3 = 9

Subtract 3 from each side

2y+3-3 = 9-3

2y = 6

Divide by 2
