A local hamburger shop sold a combined total of 676 hamburgers and cheeseburgers on Thursday. There were 74 fewer cheeseburgers sold than hamburgers.
How many hamburgers were sold on Thursday?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
no of hamburgers sold = 375
The number of hamburgers sold on Thursday was 375 hamburgers.
How to calculate the number of hamburgers sold?Let us use 'A' to represent the number of hamburgers sold on Thursday and 'C' to represent the number of cheeseburgers sold.
Based on the provided information: Total number of hamburgers and cheeseburgers sold is 676: A + C = 676.
And the number of cheeseburgers sold = 74 less than the number of hamburgers, which is C = A - 74.
We shall solve this system of equations to find A.
Putting the value of C from the second equation into the first equation:
A + (A - 74) = 676.
Simplify:
2A - 74 = 676.
Add 74 to both sides:
2A = 750.
Divide both sides by 2:
A = 375.
Hence, 375 hamburgers were sold on Thursday.

Answer:
The mean boiling temperature of the tap water is 2°C less than hat of the mixture of salt water.
Step-by-step explanation:
The complete question is attached below.
From the provided data it can be seen that the distributions of boiling temperatures, in degrees Celsius, of both tap water and a mixture of salt water are approximately symmetric.
It is known that, for a symmetric distribution,
Mean = Median = Mode
The median for the two distributions are:
Median (Tap water) = 100°C
Median (Mixture of salt water) = 102°C
Then the mean for the two distributions would be:
Mean (Tap water) = 100°C
Mean (Mixture of salt water) = 102°C
So, the mean boiling temperature of the tap water is 2°C less than hat of the mixture of salt water.

Mr. Wilson invested money in two accounts his total investment was $8000. If one account pays 6% and interest and the other pays 12% interest how much did he invest in each account if he earned a total of $600 in an interest in one year
Answer:
Mr. Wilson invested $ 2,000 in the 12% simple interest account and $ 6,000 in the 6% simple interest account.
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Let's review the information given to us to answer the question correctly:
Amount of the investment = $ 8,000
Interest rate of the first account= 6% simple
Interest rate of the second account= 12% simple
Interest of the accounts in a year = $ 600
2. How much did he invest in each account?
For answering the question, we will use the following equation:
x = Amount invested in the first account
8,000 - x = Amount invested in the second account
0.06x + 0.12 * (8,000 - x) = 600
0.06x + 960 - 0.12x = 600
-0.06x = 600 - 960 (Subtracting 960 at both sides)
-0.06x = -360
x = -360/-0.06
x = 6,000 ⇒ 8,000 - x = 2,000
Mr. Wilson invested $ 2,000 in the 12% simple interest account and $ 6,000 in the 6% simple interest account.

FIRST GETS BRAINLLESTIf you spin the spinner below 80 times, which of the following outcomes are reasonable? Select all that apply. A) Lands on blue 43 times B) Lands on yellow 8 times C) Lands on red 33 times D) Lands on red 62 times
Answer:
A, B, C
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
A) Lands on blue 43 times
B) Lands on yellow 8 times
C) Lands on red 33 times
Step-by-step explanation:
Blue is 1/2 of the spinner so theoretically is should be landed on 1/2 of the time which is 40/80 but experimentally, it can differ slightly. Using this same logic, it can be applied to yellow and red. Yellow is 1/8 of the spinner so it should be landed on about 10 out of the 80 times. Red is 3/8 of the spinner so it should be landed on approximately 30 out of 80 times.

Which of the following exponential functions is represented by the graph? Question 7 options: A) ƒ(x) = (1∕5)x B) ƒ(x) = (1∕5)–x C) ƒ(x) = –5x D) ƒ(x) = 5–x
Answer:
[tex]f(x) = (\frac{1}{5})^{-x}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
The graph above
Required
Determine from the list of options, the function of the graph
To determine the function, we have to test each of the options
But first, we nees to write out the points on the graph
(1,5), (0,1), (-1,1/5) and (-2, 1/25)
A. [tex]f(x) = (\frac{1}{5})^x[/tex]
Point 1: When x = 1, f(x) = 5
[tex]f(x) = (\frac{1}{5})^x[/tex]
[tex]f(1) = (\frac{1}{5})^1[/tex]
[tex]f(1) = (\frac{1}{5})[/tex]
There's no need to check further as the first point doesn't lie on the graph
B. [tex]f(x) = (\frac{1}{5})^{-x}[/tex]
Point 1: When x = 1, f(x) = 5
[tex]f(x) = (\frac{1}{5})^{-x}[/tex]
[tex]f(1) = (\frac{1}{5})^{-1}[/tex]
[tex]f(1) = 1/(\frac{1}{5})[/tex] --- Law of indices
[tex]f(1) = 1*(\frac{5}{1})[/tex]
[tex]f(1) = 1*5[/tex]
[tex]f(1) = 5[/tex]
Point 2: When x = 0, f(x) = 1
[tex]f(0) = (\frac{1}{5})^{-0}[/tex]
[tex]f(0) = (\frac{1}{5})^{0}[/tex]
[tex]f(0) = 1[/tex] --- The expression raise to power 0 is 1
Point 3: When x = -1, x = 1/5
[tex]f(x) = (\frac{1}{5})^{-x}[/tex]
[tex]f(-1) = (\frac{1}{5})^{-(-1)}[/tex]
[tex]f(-1) = (\frac{1}{5})^{1}[/tex] ----- Law of indices
[tex]f(-1) = (\frac{1}{5})[/tex]
Point 4: When x = -2, x = 1/25
[tex]f(x) = (\frac{1}{5})^{-x}[/tex]
[tex]f(-2) = (\frac{1}{5})^{-(-2)}[/tex]
[tex]f(-2) = (\frac{1}{5})^{2}[/tex] ----- Law of indices
[tex]f(-2) = \frac{1}{5} * \frac{1}{5}[/tex]
[tex]f(-2) = \frac{1}{25}[/tex]
There's no need to check other options as this function satisfy the 4 points on the graph;
Hence;
[tex]f(x) = (\frac{1}{5})^{-x}[/tex] is the exponential function represented on the graph

Answer:
x = [tex]\frac{k(a+r)}{7}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
a = [tex]\frac{7x}{k}[/tex] - r ( add r to both sides )
a + r = [tex]\frac{7x}{k}[/tex] ( multiply both sides by k to clear the fraction )
k(a + r) = 7x ( divide both sides by 7 )
[tex]\frac{k(a+r)}{7}[/tex] = x
Answer:
ak - kr k(a - r)
x = -------------- or x = ------------
7 7
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Multiply all three terms by k to eliminate the fraction:
ak = 7x - kr
2. Subtract kr from both sides:
7x = ak - kr
3. Divide both sides by 7:
ak - kr k(a - r)
x = -------------- or x = ------------

What is the solution of sqrtx^2+49 = x+5?
Answer:
x = 12/5Step-by-step explanation:
√x² + 49 = x + 5
Square both sides
(√x² + 49)² = ( x + 5)²
x² + 49 = x² + 10x + 25
Simplify
10x = 49 - 25
10x = 24
Divide both sides by 10
x = 12/5Hope this helps you

4) Jacqueline, Hanry, and Stanley bought a pizza pie to share for dinner. Harry ate
1/2 of the pie, and then Jacqueline ate 1/2 of what was left. After Jacqueline
finished, Stanley ate 1/2 of what was left of the pie. What fractional part of the
pizza pie was left after Stanley finished eating? Help please
Answer:
1/8
Step-by-step explanation:
ok so before i start i wanna say that this is gonna get confusing.....
Since the pizza is a whole quantity let us take it as 1.
Harry ate half of the pizza therefore the fraction that Harry ate = 1/2 of 1
= 1/2 × 1 = 1/2
Therefore fraction Harry ate = 1/2
Fraction of pizza left = 1 - 1/2 (LCM = 2)
= 1/2
Jacqueline ate 1/2 of what was left.
So, Fraction of pizza Jacqueline ate = 1/2 × 1/2 = 1/4
Therefore fraction of pizza left after both Harry and Jacqueline ate =
1 - (1/2 +1/4) = 1 - 3/4 (LCM = 4) = 1/4
Therfore fraction of pizza left = 1/4
Stanley ate 1/2 of what was left.
So, fraction of pizza Stanley ate = 1/2 × 1/4 = 1/8
Therefore, fraction of pizza left after all three of them ate =
1 - (1/2 + 1/4 + 1/8) = 1 - 7/8 (LCM = 8) = 1/8
I hope this helps .......i know this is rlly confusing but i dont know how else to put it : )

If x2 + 6x + 8 = 0 , then x could equal which of the following?
Answer:
x = -4 , -2
Step-by-step explanation:
I am assuming "x2" is x^2. If the equation is x^2 + 6x + 8 = 0, then you first have to factor the equation x^2 + 6 + 8.
In order to do that, you would have to find the multiples of 1 (from x) and 8.
We can see that 1 * 1 is 1, so that is the only pair that would work for the problem. 4 * 2 is 8, but 8 * 1 is also 8. So, which set of numbers do we have to choose? It's actually really simple. You multiply the first set of numbers (1 and 1) with one of the sets from 8 ( 4 and 2 or 8 and 1). Then when you are finished multiplying them together, you add them together to see if they equal to the number in the middle (6x). So 1(x) * 4 is 4x, and 1(x) * 2 is 2x, and when we add the numbers together, we get 6x, which is the middle number, so therefore, 4 and 2 is the correct set of numbers, not 8 and 1, because if we multiply and add those together, we get 7x, not 6x.
After doing that, you have to put them like this:
(x + 4)(x + 2)
This is so when you multiply them together, you get the starting equation. But we have to solve for x. In order to do that, we have to plug that into the equation we started off with.
(x + 4)(x + 2)=0
Now we have to make x + 4 and x + 2 equal to 0, so x is -4 and -2. There are two correct answers. Hope this helps :)
Answer:
x is -2 and -4
Name four fractions whose

A chef plans to mix 100% vinegar with Italian dressing. The Italian dressing contains 12% vinegar. The chef wants to make 320 milliliters of a mixture that contains 23%vinegar. How much vinegar and how much Italian dressing should she use?
Answer:
40 mL of vinegar,
280 mL of dressing
Step-by-step explanation:
Let v = the milliliters ( mL ) of 100% vinegar,
Then it should be that 320 - v = mL of dressing.
v + .12( 320 - v ) = .23( 320 ) - So in this case the mL of vinegar is associated with the percent of vinegar composed. 100 percent is, in other words, 1, and is multiplied by " v " the mL of 100% vinegar. 1 [tex]*[/tex] v is also v, and so is written as such in our equation. 0.12 is the decimal form of the 12% vinegar, associated with the mL of dressing - as the italian dressing is composed of 12% vinegar. 23% is 0.23 in decimal form, multiplied by the mL of of vinegar in the mixture, 320 mL.
Let's solve for the mL of 100% vinegar, subtracting from 320 to receive the mL of dressing,
v + .12( 320 - v ) = .23( 320 ) - Distribute " .12 "
v + 38.4 - 0.12v = .23( 320 ) - Multiply " 0.32 " by " 320 "
v + 38.4 - 0.12v = 73.6 - Combine like terms and add / subtract
0.88v = 35.2 - Divide 0.88 on either side
v = 40 mL of vinegar,
320 - v = 320 - 40 = 280 mL of dressing

Answer:
Area = 18 sq. inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Hypotenuse = 6√2
as it is a right angled triangle and one of the angles is 45°,
=> the other angle is also 45°.
According to 45°-45°-90° theorem,
the side is 1/√2 times the hypotenuse.
Therefore, side = 6√2 × 1/√2
=6 inches.
Area of triangle = 1/2 × base × height
= 1/2 × 6 × 6
= 1/2 × 36
=18 sq. inches
What is the expectation for a binomial distribution with p = 0.5 and n = 8?
Answer: 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following :
P = probability of success = 0.5
n = number of trials = 8
The expected value of a binomial distribution with probability of success P and number of trials n is defined by:
E(n, p) = n * p
Therefore, expected value when P = 0.5 and n = 8
E(8, 0.5) = 8 × 0.5
= 4
The expected value of the binomial distribution is 4
