A shop sells orange juice in the following ways:

1.5 litre carton for £2.35 each or 2 cartons for £3.50
2 litre carton for £3.25

What's the cheapest way of buying exactly 8 litres with no extra?
Find the amount of each type of bottle or carton you need and the total cost of buying 8 litres

Answers

Answer:

1.

1.5 litre carton for $2.35 is the cheapest way since it's the cheapest out of all the other options.

2.

a. 1.25 / 0.5 = $2.50 per L

2.35 / 1.5 = $1.57 per L

3.25 / 2 = $1.63 per L

b. 2.50 x 8 = $20.00 per 8 L

1.57 x 8 = $12.56 per 8 L

1.63 x 8 = $13.04 per 8 L

A trader has a mixture of 5c and 10c coins. He has 50 coins in all, with a total value of $4.20. How many of each coin does he have?​

Answers

Answer:

16 5c coins

34 10c coins

Step-by-step explanation:

(I prefer to use whole numbers)

5x + 10y = 420

x+y=50

multiply the bottom problem by -5

5x +10y =420

-5x -5y = -250

combine the problems

5y = 170

divide by 5

y = 34

that means x = 16

34 10c coins

16 5c coins

The number of 5 cent coins are 16 and the number of 10 cent coins are 34.

What is a linear system of equations?

A system of linear equations consists of two or more equations made up of two or more variables such that all equations in the system are considered simultaneously. The solution to a system of linear equations in two variables is any ordered pair that satisfies each equation independently.

Given that, a trader has a mixture of 5 c and 10 c coins.

Let the the number of 5 c coins be x and the number of 10 c coins be y.

He has 50 coins in all, with a total value of $4.20.

So, x+y=50 ---------(I)

5x+10y=420 ---------(II)

Multiply equation (I) by 5, we get

5x+5y=250 ---------(III)

Subtract equation (III) from (II), that is

5x+10y-(5x+5y)=420-250

⇒ 5y=170

⇒ y=34

Substitute y=34 in equation (I), we get

x=16

Therefore, the number of 5 cent coins are 16 and the number of 10 cent coins are 34.

Step-by-step explanation:

2x - 5y = 52

-5y = -2x + 52

y = 2/5x - 52/5

The slope of the line with equation 2x−5y=52 is 2/5.

The given equation of line is 2x−5y=52.

What is the slope of a equation?

The slope formula is used to calculate the inclination or steepness of a line. It finds application in determining the slope of any line by finding the ratio of the change in the y-axis to the change in the x-axis.

The given equation 2x−5y=52 can be rewritten as

2x-52=5y

⇒ y = 2x/5-52/5

Now, compare y = 2x/5-52/5 with the standard form of an equation y=mx+c

As you can see parallel lines lie on the same plane

skew lines lie on different plane and do not intersect

1)AB and GF

AB lies on ABCD plane

GF lies on EFGH plane

and they will never meet / intersect

so skew

2)DH and BF

DH lies on ADHE plane

BF lies on BCGF plane

they seem parallel but they are on different plane, so skew

3)EF and HG

EF and HG both lie on the same plane EFGH

and they both are parallel

Find two integers whose sum is -3 and product is -18

Answers

Answer: -6, 3

[] Our two integers will be x and y

        With this in mind,

                 x + y = -3

                 x * y = -18

[] Let's think about the factors of -18

        Then we will think about which ones could add up to 3

                 1 & 18, 2 & 9, 3 & 6 are factors of 18 (one being negative results in -18)

                 Well 1 and 18 cannot make 3, same for 2 and 9, that leaves us with 3 and 6.

[] Last, we will test

        You can see our test shows this solution works!

Orion buys 3 books for a total of 25.50. He pays $8 plus sales tax for each book. He wants to know how much the sales tax is for one book.
Let "t" equal the sales tax Orion pays for each book. Write an equation that represents this situation.

Answers

The equation that represents this situation is 8 + 3t = 25.50.

How to calculate the value?

Let the sales tax for each book be represented as t.

Since Orion buys 3 books for a total of 25.50 and he pays $8 plus sales tax for each book. This will be illustrated as:

Cost of book + Tax = Total amount

8 + (3 × t) = 25.50

8 + 3t = 25.50

Collect like terms

3t = 25.50 - 8.

3t = 17.50

Divide

t = 17.50 / 3

t = 5.83

The sales tax is $5.83.

For x = 1, you switch to the second part of the function rule (because that part says to use it if [tex]x \ge 1[/tex].

x = 4:  6 - 2(4) = -2  (4, -2)

Each of the parts of the function rule graph as pieces of straight lines.  The first part will be a straight line through points (-4, 1), (-3, 0), (-2, 1), (0, 3) but that part of the graph stops at point (1, 4).  Point (1, 4) is on BOTH parts of the graph, so the two lines connect at that point.

---------------------

speed x   time

so speed = distance divided by time

distance = 45cm

divided by time = 90 seconds

But the units are cm and should be metres per second

change 45cm to m

that is 45cm = 45/ 100 = 0.45

You are expected to understand this question gives you two relations in two unknowns. The first step is to assign a variable to each of the unknowns. We can use ...

x = cost of a milk shakey = cost of a sundae

The given relations have to do with the prices of different quantities of these:

  2x +3y = 26.25 . . . . . . cost of 2 shakes and 3 sundaes

  4x +2y = 29.50 . . . . . . cost of 4 shakes and 2 sundaes

These two equations in two unknowns can be solved several ways. Here, it is convenient to use the method of "elimination", because the coefficients of x are related by a small integer. Subtracting the second equation from 2 times the first eliminates the x-variable (hence the name of the method).

  2(2x +3y) -(4x +2y) = 2(26.25) -(29.50)

  4y = 23.00 . . . . . . simplify

  y = 5.75 . . . . . . . . . divide both sides by 4

The cost of an ice cream sundae is $5.75.

We can substitute this value into either equation and solve for x. We would find the cost of a shake to be x=4.50. However, the question only asks for the price of a sundae.

There are formulas for the perimeter, area, and volume of various geometric figures of a generally circular or rectangular shape. You might find it convenient to memorize them. Here, you need the formulas for the volume of a cylinder and of a cone. You also need to know that the diameter of a circle is 2 times the radius of the circle, since most of the circle-related formulas are in terms of the radius.

Volume of a cone of radius r and height h: V = 1/3πr²h

Volume of a cylinder of radius r and height h: V = πr²h

It can be convenient to remember that a cone has 1/3 the volume of a cylinder the same height.

The relation of interest here is the volume of the silo is the sum of the volumes of the bottom cylinder and the top cone.

  V = π(20 ft)²(60 ft) + 1/3(20 ft)²(x ft) = 26000π ft³

  V = 24000π ft³ +(400/3)x·π ft³ = 26000π ft³ . . . . simplify a bit

  400/3·x = 2000 . . . . . . . divide by π ft³, and subtract 24000

  x = 2000(3/400) = 15 . . . . multiply by 3/400

The height of the top portion is 15 feet.

This has to do with understanding the meaning of a table and of an expression relating table values. The expression f(a) = g(b) means you're looking for table entries such that the number in the f(x) column is equal to the number in the g(x) column.

We find the only common function value to be -1, so f(-6) = -1 = g(1). Comparing this to f(a) = g(b), we see that a=-6.

The question asks for |g(a)|. The table tells us g(-6) = -8. Its absolute value will be the value without the negative sign:

  |g(-6)| = |-8| = 8 = |g(a)|

This is a polynomial division problem. It tells you the quotient of the quadratic, divided by (ax +2), is (3x -4) with a remainder of 66. We're concerned with the leading coefficient of the divisor, 'a'.

Polynomial long division is much simpler than numerical long division, because each quotient term is the leading dividend term divided by the leading divisor term. Here, that means ...

  96x²/(ax) = 3x

Multiplying by ax gives ...

  96x² = 3ax²

Dividing by 3x², we see that ...

  (96x²)/(3x²) = (3ax²)/(3x²)

  96/3 = a = 32

The value of 'a' is 32.

Step 2: Use the identity sin²x + cos²x = 1, to rewrite the equation

                                           ≡ sinx + cosx - cosx (1 - cos²x) - sinx (1 - sin²x)

Step 3: Simplify the equation by adding like terms

                                           ≡ sinx + cosx - cosx + cos³x - sinx + sin³x

                                           ≡ sin³x + cos³x                 [QED]

A radar station is 2000 ft from the launch site of a rocket. If the rocket is launched vertically at the
rate of 500 ft/sec, how fast is the distance between the radar station and the rocket changing 10 seconds
later?

Answers

Answer: f 500 Ft./sec

Step-by-step explanation:

By evaluating the derivate of the distance in t = 10s, we will see that at t =  10s the distance is changing at a rate of 464.2 ft/s

We can think of the situation as in a right triangle, one cathetus is equal to 2000ft, and the other cathetus increases at a rate of 500ft/sec.

The hypotenuse would be the distance between the radar and the rocket.

Then the distance function is:

[tex]D(t) = \sqrt{(2000ft)^2 + (500ft/s*t)^2}[/tex]

Now we need to get the rate of change, this is given by:

[tex]\frac{dD(t)}{dt} = (1/2)*\frac{2*(500ft)^2*t}{\sqrt{(2000ft)^2 + (500ft/s*t)^2} }[/tex]

Now we evaluate this in t = 10s to get:

[tex]\frac{dD(10s)}{dt} = (1/2)*\frac{2*(500ft/s)^2*10s}{\sqrt{(2000ft)^2 + (500ft/s*10s)^2} } = 464.2 ft/s[/tex]
