On Monday morning, Mr. Descartes asked his Algebra II students whether they had gone to the carnival in town over the weekend.

"I did," said Kristen. "I went on the Teacups ride twice, the rollercoaster twice, and the Spinning Vortex once. I had a lot of fun for only $20."

"I went on those rides, too!" exclaimed Jorge. "Just once each on the Teacups and rollercoaster, but three times on the Spinning Vortex, all for $25."

"I did five Teacup rides," said Lakesha. "And two rollercoaster rides, and one Spinning Vortex. I spent $29."

Marc listed off the same rides. "Three Teacups for me, plus two rollercoasters, plus two rides on the Spinning Vortex, all for – "

"You don't need to say," interrupted Mr. Descartes. "I know how much you spent."

How much are the rides? How much did Marc spend

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Cost of one Teacup =  $3

Cost of one Roller coaster =  $4

Cost of one Spinning Vortex = $6

Marc spent = 3x + 2y + 2z = $29

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Cost of one Teacup = x

Cost of one Roller coaster = y

Cost of one Spinning Vortex = z

In Kristen case -

2x + 2y + z = $20

In Jorge case -

x + y + 3z = $25

In Lakesha case -

5x + 2y + z = $29

In Marc case -

3x + 2y + 2z = ?

Now, we have

2x + 2y + z = $20       ......(1)

x + y + 3z = $25         ........(2)

5x + 2y + z = $29      .........(3)

Now,

Subtract equation (1) from equation (3), we get

5x + 2y + z - ( 2x + 2y + z ) = $29 - 20

⇒5x + 2y + z - 2x - 2y - z  = $9

⇒3x = $9

⇒x = $3

Now,

Multiply be 2 in equation (2) , we get

2x + 2y + 6z = $50        ........(4)

Now,

Subtract equation (1) from equation (4), we get

2x + 2y + 6z - ( 2x + 2y + z ) = $50 - 20

⇒2x + 2y + 6z - 2x - 2y - z  = $30

⇒5z = $30

⇒z = $6

Now,

Put the values of x and z in equation (2) , we get

$3 + y + 3($6) = $25

⇒$3 + y + $18 = $25

⇒y + $21 = $25

⇒y = $25 - 21

⇒y = $4

∴ we get

Cost of one Teacup = x = $3

Cost of one Roller coaster = y = $4

Cost of one Spinning Vortex = z = $6

Marc spent = 3x + 2y + 2z = 3($3) + 2($4) + 2($6) = $9 + $8 + $12 = $29

Answers

Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Add 1 on both sides.

We get:

-2x = -6

Now divide -6 by -2...

-6/-2 = 3

-2x -1 = -7

add the "-1" on both sides, -2x -1 +1 = -7 +1

-2x = -6

divide "-2" on both sides, -2x/-2 = -6/-2

Problem 2

An online retailer advertises the following shipping and handling fees for every order:


Order Amount ($)

0 – 49.99

50 – 75.99

76+

Shipping and Handling ($)

3.95

11.95

5.95


The sales tax in Arizona on online orders is 5.6%. Use this information to answer the following questions.

**Assume that the shipping and handling is added after the sales tax is applied to the order.

Part a)

Using the information above, write an equation that represents the total cost as a function of the order amount in a customer’s “cart”. (Remember: Identify your input and output variables, and use proper notation – I recommend you handwrite your function and add a picture in to this document)



Part b)

Genevieve, who lives in Prescott, has a cart total of $74.50. How much will her total cost be? (Remember: Show all your work for full credit)


Part c)

Rafael, who lives in Tucson, paid $89.20 for his items. How much was his cart total? (Remember: Show all work, and make sure you get all of the answers)

Answers

Answer:

Let the 'cart' total is x and total payment is y.

The sales tax is 5.6% added to the 'cart' amount and then shipping and handling fee added.

Part A

There are three intervals as below and function added accordingly:

0 < x ≤ 49.99      ⇒ y = x + 5.6% + 3.95 = 1.056x + 3.9550 ≤ x ≤ 75.99    ⇒ y = x + 5.6% + 11.95 = 1.056x + 11.95x ≥ 76                  ⇒ y = x + 5.6% + 5.95 = 1.056x + 5.95Part Bx = 74.50, this falls in the second intervaly = 74.50*1.056 + 11.95 = $90.62 (rounded )Part C

y = 89.20, this is close to the number we got in part B and we assume it is same - the middle interval.

89.20 = 1.056x + 11.951.056x = 89.20 - 11.951.056x = 77.25x = 77.25 / 1.056x = 73.15 (rounded )

Note. Shipping and Handling charges seems incorrectly ordered. If so the answers above all should change accordingly.

Paul has $30,000 to invest. His intent is to earn 11% interest on his investment. He can invest part of his money at 7% interest and part at 13% interest. How much does Paul need to invest in each option to make a total 11% return on his $30,000?
7% interest =$?

13% interest =$?

Answers

Answer:

7% interest = $10000

13% interest = $20000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the amount invested at 7% interest be x.

Let the amount invested at 13% interest be y.

Thus;

x + y = 30000 - - - (eq 1)

We want to find out how much Paul needs to invest in each option to make a total 11% return on his $30,000.

Thus;

0.07x + 0.13y = 0.11(30000)

Multiply through by 100 to get rid of the decimal;

7x + 13y = 0.11(30000 × 100).

7x + 13y = 330000 - - - (eq 2)

From eq 1, x = 30000 - y

Put this for x in eq 2 to get;

7(30000 - y) + 13y = 330000

210000 - 7y + 13y = 330000

6y = 330000 - 210000

6y = 120000

y = 120000/6

y = $20000

x = 30000 - 20000

x = $10000

Thus;

Amount invested at;

7% interest = $10000

13% interest = $20000

forty percent of N is equal to two hundred forty. how do i write in number?​

Answers

40% of 600 is 240 :)

The number N whose forty percent is 240 is 600, or we say that 40% of 600 is 240

How to find the percentage from the total value?

Suppose the value of which a thing is expressed in percentage is "a'

Suppose the percent that considered thing is of "a" is b%

Then since percent shows per 100 (since cent means 100), thus we will first divide the whole part in 100 parts and then we multiply it with b so that we collect b items per 100 items(that is exactly what b per cent means).

Thus, that thing in number is

[tex]\dfrac{a}{100} \times b[/tex]

For this case, we are specified that:

40% of N = 240

Since 40% of N is [tex]\dfrac{N}{100} \times 40[/tex], thus, we get

[tex]\dfrac{N}{100} \times 40 = 240[/tex] (as they both are same quantity, ie. 40% of N)

Now, solving it further to get value of N:

[tex]\dfrac{N}{100} \times 40 = 240\\\\\text{Multiplying 100 on both the sides}\\\\N \times 40 = 24000\\\\\text{Dividing both the sides by 40}\\\\N = 24000/40 = 600[/tex]

Thus,  40% of 600 is 240 or we say that the number N whose forty percent is 240 is 600

1) Which of the following are considered POLYNOMIALS according to the rules of polynomials? Check all that apply

Answers

Answer:

A polynomial is writen as:

p(x) = aₙ*xⁿ + ... + a₂*x² + a₁*x¹ + a₀

So we can only have positive integer exponents of x.

the coefficients "a" can be any real number.

Let's analyze the options:

1) Here we can see a term with "√x", remember that:

√x = (x)^(1/2)

This is not an integer exponent, then this is not a polynomial.

2) This is a polynomial.

3) Here we have the term "4/x"

This can be written as:

4/x = 4*x^(-1)

Then this is not a polynomial.

4) Here we have the term "5^x"

In a polynomial we must have powers of x, not x as a power, then this is not a polynomial.

5) This is a polynomial.

6) Here we have the term " 2/x^2"

This can be written as:

2/x^2 = 2*x^(-2)

We have a negative exponent of x, then this is not a polynomial.

Solution (1) :

Given, to find A we have to :

square mAdd y to m²Subtract 7 from m² + y

From the question, the following equation can be formed :

[tex] =\tt A = {m}^{2} + y - 7[/tex]

Therefore, the formula for finding A = m² + y - 7

Solution (2) :

The value of A we can derive from the formula is :

[tex] =\tt A = {m}^{2} + y - 7[/tex]

Value of m = 3 (given)

Which means :

[tex] =\tt A = {3}^{2} + y - 7[/tex]

[tex] =\tt \: A = 9 + y - 7[/tex]

[tex] =\tt A = 9 - 7 + y[/tex]
