Forty-five students and parents attended a career fair on Tuesday. The number of students that attended was 5 more than twice the number
of parents in attendance. Write a system of equation to model the situation.

The problem can be solved using algebra. Let's say the discount rate is x, then the price after discount is:

60000 (1 - x/100)

The price after VAT is:

60000 (1 - x/100) (1 + y/100) = 58986

Where y is the rate of VAT.

Rearranging the equation we get:

(1 - x/100) (1 + y/100) = 58986/60000

Multiply both sides by 100 to get rid of the fractions:

100 (1 - x/100) (1 + y/100) = 981

Expanding and grouping like terms, we get:

100 - x + 100y - xy = 981

We can see that x is in two terms, so we can move one side of the equation and get:

100 - x + 100y = 981 + x

x = (981 + x - 100 + 100y)/100 = (981 + xy - 100y)/100

Now we have x in only one term and we know the value of x is 10%, so we can substitute it:

10 + 10y = 9.81

Solving for y we can find that y = 0.81 or 81%

So the VAT rate is 81%

This situation can be represented with an equation as y = mx + b. The constant of proportionality (m) is a number that represents how much flour is needed for each additional batch of cookies. If the equation is in the form y = mx + b, then the relationship is proportional.

Shiloh needs to make multiple batches of cookies from a recipe that calls for 2 2/3 cups of flour to make two regular batches. To represent this situation in an equation, the equation is y = mx + b, where y is the amount of flour needed for the number of batches (x) Shiloh is making, m is the constant of proportionality, and b is the initial amount of flour needed (2 2/3 cups).

The constant of proportionality (m) in the situation above is the measure of how much flour is needed for each additional batch of cookies. For example, if the constant of proportionality is 0.75, that means Shiloh would need to add 0.75 cups of flour for each additional batch of cookies.

Therefore, if Shiloh is making three batches of cookies, the equation would be y = 0.75x + 2 2/3, and the total amount of flour needed would be 4 1/8 cups (2 2/3 + 0.75 + 0.75).

By using an equation to represent this situation, it is easy to determine if a relationship is proportional.

If the equation is in the form y = mx + b, then the relationship is proportional.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

from the graph we konw the ∠ABD=∠DBC, because ∠DBC=20, so ∠ABD=20

Step-by-step explanation:

it means that the graph of the function above y=x must be the mirrored image of the graph under y=x.

it means that the function applied to itself gives x.

f(f(x)) = x

e.g.

f(x) = 5 - x

f(f(x)) = 5 - (5 - x) = 5 - 5 + x = x

so, this f(x) is its own inverse.

The length of the triangle ΔABC will be √7 inches.

The Pythagoras theorem states that the sum of two squares equals the squared of the longest side.

The Pythagoras theorem formula is given as

H² = P² + B²

In triangle ΔABC, AC = BC, the CD is perpendicular to AB with D belonging to AB, AB = 4 inches, and CD = √(3) inches.

The CD is half of the length AB. Then we have

CD = AB / 2

CD = 4 / 2

CD = 2 inches

Then the length of AC is calculated as,

h² = (√3)² + (2)²

h² = 3 + 4

h= √7 inches

The length of the triangle ΔABC will be √7 inches.

Answer:

Expression: 2s + 6

# of Pages Friend Read: 14 pages

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call the number of pages your sister has read, s, and the number of pages your friend has read, f. We will make our equation first. If your friend has read 6 more than twice as many pages as your sister has, your equation would look like this:

f = 2s + 6

That is your equation for how many pages your friend read, your expression would be just 2s + 6. Now, we will substitute in 4 for s, and we get:

f = 2 * 4 + 6

Multiplying gives:

f = 8 + 6 = 14

So your friend has read 14 pages.

The width of the frame is 2.4 inches

Let w represent the width of the frame

Then the area of the frame is:

(w + 5)(w + 7) = 69.56

Rewrite it in Standard form of a quadratic equation:

w² + 12w + 35 = 69.56

w² + 12w - 34.56 = 0

Use Quadratic Formula to solve for w:

w =  (-b±√(b²-4ac))/(2a)

w =  (-12±√(12²-4×1×(- 34.56)))/(2×1)

w = (-12±√(144+138.24))/(2)

w = (-12±16.8)/2

w = -6 ± 8.4

w = -6 + 8.4 or -6-8.4

w = 2.4 or w = -14.4

Since the width cannot be negative.

Thus, w = 2.4 inches

The amount of eroded rock in cubic kilometres is 1 km3.

To calculate the amount of eroded rock in cubic kilometres, we need to find the volume of the area that has been eroded. The volume of a rectangular shape is found by multiplying the length, width, and height (or depth) together.

In this case, the area that has been eroded is 10 km long, 5 km wide, and 20 m deep. However, we need to convert the depth from meters to kilometres to match the units of the other measurements. Since 1 km = 1000 m, we can convert the depth by dividing by 1000:

20 m / 1000 = 0.02 km

Now that all of the measurements are in kilometres, we can find the volume by multiplying them together:

10 km * 5 km * 0.02 km = 1 km3

So the amount of eroded rock in cubic kilometres is 1 km3.

Complete Question:

The amount of eroded rock is measured in cubic kilometres (km3). A cubic kilometre is a cube that measures 1 km on each side. How many km3 of rock were eroded in an area that is 10 km long, 5 km wide, and 20 m deep?

The perimeter of the triangle is 23.66 inches

According to the 30-60-90 triangle theorem, the hypotenuse is twice as long as the shorter leg. Additionally, the sides of this particular triangle have a ratio of 1:2: [tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex].

Now in the question

As shown in the diagram, if the shorter leg of the triangle at 30°, 60°, and 90° is extended in the direction of the right angle by an amount equal to itself and connected to the third point, we obtain a triangle that is congruent with the original triangle. It is clear that the combined triangle is an equilateral triangle with equal sides and angles.

The greatest leg, AB, in the picture is therefore twice as long as the shortest leg of the original triangle and equal to base BC.

Therefore according to the question

given that the shorter leg is 5 inches,

hypotenuse = 5*2 = 10 inches.

the longest leg = 5[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex], and

The perimeter is thus 5 + 10 + 5[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex] = 15 + 5[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex] = 23.66 inches

Answer:

(- 1, 9 )

Step-by-step explanation:

6x - y = - 15 → (1)

x + 2y = 17 → (2)

multiplying (1) by 2 and adding to (2) will eliminate y

12x - 2y = - 30 → (3)

add (2) and (3) term by term to eliminate y

13x + 0 = - 13

13x = - 13 ( divide both sides by 13 )

x = - 1

substitute x = - 1 into either of the 2 equations and solve for y

substituting into (2)

- 1 + 2y = 17 ( add 1 to both sides )

2y = 18 ( divide both sides by 2 )

y = 9

solution is (- 1, 9 )

The exponential function that represents the population is y = a*3^x.

What is exponential function?

The formula for exponential functions is y = ab^x, where b is the constant ratio and a  is the starting point. Observe that as the value of x increases by a constant amount, the value of y increases by a common ratio by looking at a table of ordered pairs. All exponential functions share this trait.

We have to find the exponential function for the given table.

Since,

Exponential function = ab^x

where,

a is the starting point

b is the common ratio.

Here,

Common ratio = 24/8 = 72/24 = 216/72 = 648/216 = 3

According to probability, total number of handshakes will be 36.

Handshakes equal n * (n - 1)/2. This is the case because a handshake between two people is not counted twice and each of the n people can shake hands with n - 1 people (they wouldn't shake their own hand). Any number of people can be calculated using this formula.

The first person will need to shake eight (8) people's hands. Only seven (7) hands will need to be shook by the second person because the first handshake will not be repeated. Due to the same factors as mentioned above, only six (6) people will require a handshake from the third person. This continues until the final person has no one left to shake hands with because everyone has already done so.

The formula to calculate how many handshakes were exchanged is n = 8 + 7 + 6 +... + 1 = 36.
