5. Mrs. Perkins hosts a birthday party for her son and 7 guests. She orders 2 cookies and a
cupcake for each child. The cost of the cupcake is $2.75, and the total bill is $46.00. What is the
cost of a cookie?

Answers

Answer:

A cookie is $1.50.

Step-by-step explanation:

Variable x = cost of cookies

For each child means the 7 guests plus Mrs. Perkins' son which equals 8.

Set up an equation:

(2x)8 + (2.75)8 = 46

Use distributive property:

16x + 22 = 46

Isolate variable x by subtracting both sides by 22:

16x = 24

Isolate variable x by dividing both sides by 16

x = 1.5

Check your work:

2(1.5) × 8 + (2.75)8 = 46

3 × 8 + 22 = 46

24 + 22 = 46

46 = 46

Correct!

Answer: $1.50 per cookie

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that each cupcake is worth $2.75 and the total bill of all her purchases is $46.

Therefore, lets multiply the cost of a cupcake times the amount of people eating them. (the sons and 7 guests which add up to 8)

2.75(8) = $22

Now take the total cost of 8 cupcakes and subtract it from the total.

46 - 22 =  $24

24 dollars is equal to the cost times the amount of cookies purchased. Therefore, let X equal to the cost per cookie and multiply it times the amount of cookies purchased. The amount of cookies is equal to 2 cookies times 8 children.

(2*8)X = 24

16x=24

x= $1.50

Check:

8[ (1)(2.75) + 2X ] = 46

8[ 2.75 + (2) (1.50) ] = 46

22 + 24 = 46

46 = 46

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\displaystyle \theta = \left\{\frac{7\pi}{6}, \, \frac{3\pi}{2}, \frac{11\pi}{6}\right\}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to solve the equation:

[tex]2\sin ^2 \theta + 3\sin \theta + 1 = 0[/tex]

In the interval [0, 2π).

Notice that this is in quadratic form. Namely, by letting u = sin(θ), we acquire:

[tex]\displaystyle 2u^2 + 3u + 1 = 0[/tex]

Factor:

[tex]\displaystyle (2u+1)(u+1) = 0[/tex]

By the Zero Product Property:

[tex]\displaystyle 2u + 1 = 0\text{ or } u + 1 = 0[/tex]

Solve for each case:

[tex]\displaystyle u = -\frac{1}{2} \text{ or } u = -1[/tex]

Back-substitute:

[tex]\displaystyle \sin \theta = -\frac{1}{2} \text{ or } \sin \theta =-1[/tex]

Use the Unit Circle. Hence, our three solutions in the interval [0, 2π) are:

[tex]\displaystyle \theta = \left\{\frac{7\pi}{6}, \, \frac{3\pi}{2}, \frac{11\pi}{6}\right\}[/tex]

A man is37years old and his child is eight.how many years ago was the product of their ages 96 as in quadratic equation step by step​

Answers

Answer:

5 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the unknown numer of years ago when the product of the man and his child's age was 96.

》 x years ago, the man's age = 37 - x

the child's age = 8 - x

(37 - x)(8 - x) = 96

296 - 37x - 8x + x² = 96

x² - 45x - 296 - 96 = 0

x² - 45x - 200 = 0

x² - 5x - 40x - 200 = 0

x(x - 5) -40(x - 5) = 0

(x - 5)(x - 40) = 0

x = 5 years ago or x = 40 years ago

but x = 40 > son's present age.

Thus, x = 5.

Therefore, 5 years ago the product of the ages of the man and his child was 96.

Using cross products

1x = 100 * 1000

Answer:

100,000 coins

Step-by-step explanation:

1 apple cost 100 coins

We want to find the amount of coins needed to get 1000 apples.

To do so we simply multiply the coins it takes to get 1 apple (100) by 1000

1000 * 100 = 100,000

Answer: c = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

4 (3 + c) + c = c + 4

Expand parentheses and apply the distributive property

4 · 3 + 4 · c + c = c + 4

12 + 4c + c = c + 4

Combine like terms

12 + (4c + c) = c + 4

12 + 5c = c + 4

Subtract 12 on both sides

12 + 5c - 12 = c + 4 - 12

5c = c - 8

Subtract c on both sides

5c - c = c - 8 - c

4c = -8

Divide 4 on both sides

4c / 4 = -8 / 4

[tex]\boxed{c=-2}[/tex]

A scale drawing of a school bus has a scale of 1/2 inch to 5feet. If the length of the school bus is 4 1/2 inches on the scale drawing. What is the actual length of the bus? Explain or show your reasoning.

Answers

Answer: actual length = 45 ft

Explanation:

Scale drawn:

1/2 inch = 5ft

Meaning that if the drawing scale is 0.5 inch then the actual bus would be 5ft.

If the length of the drawn school bus is 4 1/2 inches. We can write:

1/2 = 5
4 1/2 = x

=> x = (5 x 4 1/2)/1/2
Or x = (5 x 4.5)/0.5
x = 22.5/0.5
x = 45

Therefore the actual length of the bus is 45 ft
