Suppose that you need to buy some chicken for dinner tonight. You found an ad showing that a store across town has chicken on sale for $2.99 per pound. Your usual neighborhood store sells the same chicken for $3.79 per pound. You are considering whether it is worth the drive to purchase the chicken from the store across town. Information you will need:________
A. You need to purchase 3 pounds of chicken
B. Your neighborhood store is 2.1 miles away and takes about 8 minutes to get there
C. The store across town is 8.6 miles away and takes about 24 minutes to get there
D. Your car averages about 22 miles per gallon in the city Gas is $3.05 per gallon

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

C). The store across town is 8.6 miles away and takes about 24 minutes to get there.

D). Your car averages about 22 miles per gallon in the city Gas is $3.05 per gallon.

Step-by-step explanation:

The information regarding the distance of the store across town from the house, the time required to reach there, the average of the car, and the cost of gas per gallon would assist in calculating if the extra drive is worth buying chicken from the city store.

Cost of chicken in the city store - $2.99 per pound

Average of the car in 1 gallon = 22miles

so, the average of the car in 1 mile = 1/22

Cost of traveling 8.6miles = 8/22 * $3.05

                                           = 24.40/22

Additional cost = $ 1.109

Total cost of buying chicken from the city store = $2.99 + $1.10

                                                                                = $4.09

Hence, it is not worth to buy the chicken from the store across the town as it is costlier in comparison to $3.79 in nearby store.

Write the equation of the line y=(5)/(6)x+(7)/(6) perpendicular to
that passes through the point (-8,7)

Answers

Answer:

6x + 5y + 13 = 0.

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 5/6x + 7/6

Gradient = 5/6

Since the line is perpendicular to y = 5/6x + 7/6

then its gradient is -6/5.

Hence its equation is: point (-8,7).

y - 7 = -6/5(x -(-8))

multiplying through by 5 we get;

5y - 35 = -6(x + 8)

5y - 35 = -6x - 48

6x + 5y + 13 = 0

Answers

Answer:

a. 9 sides

b. 18 sides

c. 24 sides

d. 30 sides

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the equation 180(n-2), which n is the number of sides to find the answer.

a. 180(n-2)=1260

n-2=7

n=9

b. 180(n-2)=2880

n-2=16

n=18

c. 180(n-2)=3960

n-2=22

n=24

d. 180(n-2)=5040

n-2=28

n=30

Answer:

a) 9 sides

b) 18 sides

c) 24 sides

d) 30 sides

Step-by-step explanation:

sum of interior angles = (n - 2) * 180

where n is the number of sides

a) 1260

(n - 2) * 180 = 1260

(n - 2) = 1260/180

(n - 2) = 7

n = 7 + 2

n =  9

b) 2880

(n - 2) * 180 = 2880

(n - 2) = 2880/180

(n - 2) = 16

n = 16 + 2

n =  18

c) 3960

(n - 2) * 180 = 3960

(n - 2) = 3960/180

(n - 2) = 22

n = 22 + 2

n = 24

d) 5040

(n - 2) * 180 = 5040

(n - 2) = 5040/180

(n - 2) = 28

n = 28 + 2

n = 30

Answers

Answer:

x = 7, arc DE = 198°

Step-by-step explanation:

Inscribed angles from the same arc are congruent.

∠ DCE and ∠ DWE are inscribed angles from the same arc DE , thus

12x + 15 = 3x + 78 ( subtract 3x from both sides )

9x + 15 = 78 ( subtract 15 from both sides )

9x = 63 ( divide both sides by 9 )

x = 7

Thus

∠ DCE = 12x + 15 = 12(7) + 15 = 84 + 15 = 99°

The inscribed angle DCE is half the measure of its intercepted arc, thus

arc DE = 2 × 99° = 198°

In the equation a= 3/b is a positive, real number. As the
value of b is increased so it becomes closer and closer to
infinity, what happens to the value of a ?

Answers

Answer:

The value of a tends to zero

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression a = 3/b

as the denominator of the of the expression b increases the value of the output is known to be decreasing. if the value of b now goes so large to become an infinite, value then the value of a will goes to zero as shown;

If b = ∞

a = 3/∞

a = 0

Note that for any constant value a, the ratio a/∞ will always tends to zero

[BRAINLIEST] To manufacture an automobile requires​ painting, drying, and polishing. Epsilon Motor Company produces three types of​ cars, the​ Delta, the​ Beta, and the Sigma. Each Delta requires hours for​ painting, hours for​ drying, and hours for polishing. A Beta requires hours for​ painting, hours for​ drying, and hours for​ polishing, and a Sigma requires hours for​ painting, for​ drying, and for polishing. If the company has hours for​ painting, hours for​ drying, and hours for polishing per​ month, how many of each type of car are​ produced?

Answers

Answer:

The company manufactures 5 delta cars, 8 beta cars and 12 sigma cars.

Step-by-step explanation:

let in the motor company x number of delta cars, y number of beta cars and z number of sigma cars are manufactured.

from the condition given in the question we can write

9x + 13y + 9z = 257 ........ (1)

4x + 6y + 4z = 116 ........... (2) and    

3x + 4y + z = 59 ......... (3)

From equation (2) we get

9x + 13.5y + 9z = 261 ....... (4) {Multiplying with  both sides}

solving equations (1) and (4) we get

0.5y = 4

and ⇒ y = 8.

from equation (2) putting the value of y we get,  

4x + 4z = 116 - 48 = 68

⇒x + z = 17 .....(5)

Now, from equation (3) putting y = 8 we get,  

3x + z = 59 - 32 = 27 ....... (6)  

hence, solving equations (5) and (6) we get, 17 - x = 27 - 3x

⇒ 2x = 10

⇒ x = 5  

So, z = 17 - x = 12

therefore, the company manufactures 5 delta cars, 8 beta cars and 12 sigma cars.

Answers

Answer:

x = 8, y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply the second equation by -2:

x + 6y = 20

-2x - 6y = -28

Add the equations and simplify:

-x = -8

x = 8

Plug x = 8 back into the first equation and solve for y:

8 + 6y = 20

6y = 12

y = 2

Answer:

x=8

Y=2

or

(x,y)=(8,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

x+6y=20

x+3y=14

solve the equation for x

x+6y=20

x=14-3y

substitute the given value of x into the equation

x+6y=20

14-3y+6y=20

14+3y=20

3y=20-14

3y=6

3y/3=6/3

y=2.

substitute the given value of y into the equation

x=14-3y

x=14-3×2

x=14-6

x=8.

the possible solution of the system is the ordered pair (x,y)

(x,y)=(8,2)

or

x=8

Y=2

Proof:

Check if the given ordered pair is the solution of the system of equations

8+6×2=20

8+3×2=14

simply the equalities

20=20

14=14

since all of the equalities are true, the ordered pair is the solution of the system

(x,y)=(8,2)

Tommy bought a total of 30 apples and oranges for a classic picnic. Apple's cost $3 per pound and oranges cost $4 per pound. Tommy spent $100 total. How many apples and oranges did Tommy buy?​

Answers

Answer:

20 apples and 10 oranges

Step-by-step explanation:

Let amount of apples be x and oranges be y

Then we have:

x + y = 303x + 4y = 100

Subtract triple of the first equation from the second one:

3x + 4y - 3(x + y) = 100 - 3*303x - 3x + 4y - 3y - 10y = 10

Then finding x

x = 30 - 10 = 20

So apples = 20, Oranges = 10

Answers

Answer:

x + y + z = 123

Step-by-step explanation:

x:y:z = 7:2:5

Let x = 7a, y = 2a, z = 5a

Since x - z = 18

Therefore,

7a - 5a = 18

2a + 18

a = 18/2

a = 9

7a = 7*9 = 63

2a = 2*9= 15

5a = 5*9 = 45

x + y + z = 63 + 15 + 45

x + y + z = 123

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Option A is correct, 180 degree rotation counter clockwise about the origin is transformation which would carry the rhombus onto itself.

We need to consider the properties of a rhombus and how each transformation affects its shape and orientation.

A rhombus is a quadrilateral with all four sides of equal length. It also has opposite angles that are congruent. Based on this information, we can analyze each transformation option:

180-degree rotation counterclockwise about the origin is a transformation would preserve the shape and size of the rhombus since a 180-degree rotation does not change the lengths of the sides or the angles.

Therefore, it is a possible transformation that carries the rhombus onto itself.

Answer:

The length of x=3/1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the right triangle

Ф = 30

We know that

sin Ф = opposite/hypotenuse

The opposite of angle 30° = x

The hypotenuse is = 6

so

sin 30 = opposite/hypotenuse

    1/2      = x/6           ∵ sin 30 = 1/2

     1/2 × 6 = x

     6/2 = x

       3/1 = x

Therefore, the length of x=3/1
