At a farmers' market. Karen and Alice each bought some bread that cost $2 per loaf. Then Karen spent $3 to purchase other items, while Alice spent $1. Could the girls have bought the same number of loaves of bread and spent the same total amount?

1. Let x represent the number of loaves of bread. Fill in the boxes to write a system of equations for the total amounts spent.

Karen: y = x +
Alice: y = x +

2. What are the slopes of the lines represented by the equations?

3. What are the y-intercepts of the lines represented by the equations?

4. Do the lines intersect?

5. How many solutions are there to this system of equations?

math6. Can Karen and Alice have bought the same number of loaves of bread and spent the same total amount?​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

(1)

Karen: [tex]y = 2x +3[/tex]

Alice: [tex]y = 2x +1[/tex]

(2): Slope is 2

(3) y intercept

[tex]b = 3[/tex] --- For Karen

[tex]b = 1[/tex] --- For Alice

(4) They do not intersect

(5) No solution

(6) No

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]x = loaves[/tex]

[tex]y = amount[/tex]

Solving (1): Complete the equation.

For Karen:

[tex]m = 2[/tex] --- the rate

[tex]b = 3[/tex] --- additional spendings

For Alice:

[tex]m = 2[/tex] --- the rate

[tex]b = 1[/tex] --- additional spendings

The general equation is;

[tex]y = mx +b[/tex]

For Karen, it becomes

[tex]y = 2x +3[/tex]

For Alice, it is:

[tex]y = 2x +1[/tex]

(2): The slopes.

In (1), we have:

[tex]m = 2[/tex] --- the rate (for both Karen and Alice).

This rate implies the slope.

Hence, the slope is 2

(3): The y intercept.

The additional spendings in (1) means the y intercept.

So, we have:

[tex]b = 3[/tex] --- For Karen

[tex]b = 1[/tex] --- For Alice

(4) Because they have the same slope, they do not intersect

(5) Number of solutions.

[tex]y = 2x +3[/tex]

[tex]y = 2x +1[/tex]

Subtract both equations

[tex]y-y = 2x-2x +3-1[/tex]

[tex]0 = 2[/tex]

This means there is no solution

(6) Can they spend the same amount on the same number of loaves

In (5), the equations have no solution

Hence, it is not possible to spend the same amount for the same number of loaves

Answers

To make things easier, first rewrite

f(x) = x / (x + 7/x) = x ² / (x ² + 7)

i.e. multiply f by x/x, which is valid because x can't be 0 anyway as it's outside the domain of f.

Now, by the quotient and chain rules, we get

f '(x) = ((x ² + 7) (x ²)' - x ² (x ² + 7)') / (x ² + 7)²

… = (2x (x ² + 7) - x ² (2x)) / (x ² + 7)²

… = (2x ³ + 14x - 2x ³) / (x ² + 7)²

… = 14x / (x ² + 7)²

f ''(x) = ((x ² + 7)² (14x)' - (14x) ((x ² + 7)²)') / ((x ² + 7)²)²

… = (14 (x ² + 7)² - (14x) (2 (x ² + 7)² (x ² + 7)')) / (x ² + 7)⁴

… = (14 (x ² + 7)² - (14x) (2 (2x) (x ² + 7)²)) / (x ² + 7)⁴

… = (14 (x ² + 7)² - 4x (14x) (x ² + 7)²) / (x ² + 7)⁴

… = 14 (x ² + 7)² (1 - 4x) / (x ² + 7)⁴

… = 14 (1 - 4x) / (x ² + 7)²

… = (14 - 56x) / (x ² + 7)²

MathPAD Response msnViewer_resp_str_c04q_go_2_006_1_svg ViewEdit (b) How much will be present in the year 2010

Answers

Answer:

A(t) = 90e^0.12t ;

299 mg

Step-by-step explanation:

General Continous growth rate equation :

A = Pe^rt

A = amount present, t years after year of initial amount.

Here,

P = 90 mg, amount in year 2000

r = rate = 12% = 0.12

t = years after 2000

Therefore,

A is written as ;

A(t) = 90e^0.12t

Amount present in year 2010 ;

t = 2010 - 2000 = 10

A(10) = 90e^0.12(10)

A(10) = 90 * e^1.2

= 90 * 3.3201169

= 298.81052

= 299 mg

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]f(x) = 5x[/tex] --- Nickel to Penny

Required

Determine the function that converts penny to nickel

This question implies that we determine the inverse of the function.

We have:

[tex]f(x) = 5x[/tex]

Represent f(x) with y

[tex]y = 5x[/tex]

Swap the positions of x and y

[tex]x = 5y[/tex]

Make y the subject by dividing both sides by 5

[tex]\frac{1}{5}x = \frac{5y}{5}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1}{5}x = y[/tex]

[tex]y =\frac{1}{5}x[/tex]

Replace y with f'(x)

[tex]f'(x) = \frac{1}{5}x[/tex]

Hence, the function that converts x pennies to nickels is [tex]f'(x) = \frac{1}{5}x[/tex]

What are the coordinates of the image of point T(2,4) over the transformation D(1/2,R), where R(6,-2) is the center. X= ? Y= ?

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  T'(4, 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

The dilation transformation around a center not the origin is ...

  T' = k(T -R) +R . . . . for dilation factor k and center R

This can be simplified to ...

  T' = 1/2T -1/2R +R = 1/2T +1/2R = (T +R)/2

Using the given point values, we find the image point to be ...

  T' = ((2, 4) +(6, -2))/2 = (8, 2)/2 = (4, 1)

The image point is T'(4, 1).

The perimeter of a triangle is 38 feet. One side of the triangle is 4 feet shorter than the second side. The third side is 6 feet longer than the second side. Find the length of each side.

Answers

Answer:

First side, a = 8 ft.

Second side = 12 ft.

Third side, c = 18 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the sides of the triangle be a, b and c respectively.

Given the following data;

Perimeter = 38ft

First side, a = b - 4

Third side, c = b + 4

The perimeter of a triangle is given by the addition of all its three (3) sides.

Mathematically, the perimeter of a triangle is given by the formula;

P = a + b + c

Substituting into the equation, we have;

38 = (b - 4) + b + (b + 6)

38 = 3b + 2

3b = 38 - 2

3b = 36

b = 36/3

b = 12ft

To find the first side, a;

a = b - 4

a = 12 - 4

a = 8ft.

To find the third side, c

c = b + 6

c = 12 + 6

c = 18 ft.

A soccer team gets three points for a win, one point for a tie, and zero points for a loss. The team plays ten games and has three more wins than losses. What is the greatest possible number of points the team could have?

Answers

Answer: 19.

Step-by-step explanation:

The highest you can go is 6 and 3 because you can't do 7 and 4. 6 wins would add up to 18 points. The one game that is missing we can say could be a tie, which would add 1 point, making it 19 possible points.

Answer:

Highest number of wins and losses can only be 6 & 3 and if u take 7 & 4 as taking 7&4 will make total 11 and we know that there was only 10 games.

So we can conclude like this

Number of wins: 6

Number of losses: 3

Number of draws: 1

Thus the points will be, (6*3)+(3*0)+(1*1)

18+0+1

=19 points

What can be said about a set of data with a standard deviation of​ 0? ​(This is a reading assessment question. Be certain of your answer because you only get one attempt on this​ question.) Choose the correct answer below. A. All the observations are the same value. B. All the observations are 0. C. For every positive​ value, there is a corresponding negative value​ (as in 4 and −​4; 6 and −​6).

Answers

Answer:

A.) All the observations are the same value

Step-by-step explanation:

One of the statistical measures used to determine the spread or variability of a dataset is the variance or standard deviation. The standard deviation determines how a set of value varies about the mean value.

Mathematically,

Variability or spread = mean + number of standard deviations

Hence, a standard deviation of 0 ; means they there is no variability in the dataset. Hence, a standard deviation of 0 means all observations are of the same value.

For a set of data with a standard deviation of 0, the correct option is:

A: "All the observations are the same value."

What is the standard deviation?

For a given set {x₁, x₂, ...} with N elements.

With a mean M, we define the standard deviation as:

[tex]S= \sqrt{\frac{\sum (x_i - M)^2}{N - 1} }[/tex]

Notice that, because we have a squared element in the sum, all the elements of the sum are positive. So if we have a single value of the set that is different than the mean, then the standard deviation will be larger than zero.

Then the only case where the standard deviation is zero is the case where all the elements of the set are equal to the mean of the set, and that only happens if all the elements of the set are equal.

So the correct option is A:

"All the observations are the same value. "

If you want to learn more about standard deviation, you can read:
