A caterer is making cookie trays for upcoming holiday parties. This morning, she made 4 small trays and 4 large trays, which contain a total of 236 cookies. In the afternoon, she made 4 small trays and 1 large tray, which contain a total of 116 cookies. How many cookies do the different sized trays contain?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The amount of cookies in the small tray = x = 19 cookies

The amount of cookies in the Large tray = y = 40 cookies

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

The amount of cookies in the small tray = x

The amount of cookies in the Large tray = y

We are told:

A caterer is making cookie trays for upcoming holiday parties.

This morning, she made 4 small trays and 4 large trays, which contain a total of 236 cookies.

This is represented Mathematically as:

4x + 4y = 236..... Equation 1

In the afternoon, she made 4 small trays and 1 large tray, which contain a total of 116 cookies.

This is represented Mathematically as:

4x + y = 116 ........ Equation 2

y = 116 - 4x

We solve the above equations using the substitution method

We substitute 116 - 4x for y in Equation 1

4x + 4y = 236..... Equation 1

4x + 4(116 - 4x) = 236

4x + 464 - 16x = 236

Collect like terms

4x - 16x = 236 - 464

-12x = -228

x = -228/-12

x = 19 cookies

Solving for y

y = 116 - 4x

y = 116 - 4 × 19

y = 116 - 76

x = 40 cookies

The number of cookies the different sized trays contained is given as:

The amount of cookies in the small tray = x = 19 cookies

The amount of cookies in the Large tray = y = 40 cookies

The weight of an object on Mars varies directly with its weight on Earth.An object that weighs 50 pounds on mars weighs 150 on Earth.If an object weighs 120 pounds on Earths,write and solve a direct variation equation to find how much an object would weigh on mars.

Answers

Answer:

Formula: y = x/3. Answer: 40 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, we divide 150 by 50. This gets us 3. This means your weight on Earth is 3x your weight on Mars. That means we can make a formula. Our formula is y (weight in pounds on Mars) = x (weight in pounds on Earth)/3. Let's plug 120 in our formula. 120/3 is 40. This means the weight of the object on Mars is 40 pounds.

The distance from Matt’s home to school is 5/8 of a mile. He has biked 3/8 of a mile. How much further does he have to bike?

Answers

Given:

The distance from Matt’s home to school is [tex]\dfrac{5}{8}[/tex] of a mile.

He has biked [tex]\dfrac{3}{8}[/tex] of a mile.

To find:

How much further does he have to bike?

Solution:

We have,

Total distance from Matt’s home to school = [tex]\dfrac{5}{8}[/tex] of a mile.

Distance covered = [tex]\dfrac{3}{8}[/tex] of a mile.

Remaining Distance = [tex]\dfrac{5}{8}-\dfrac{3}{8}[/tex] of a mile

                                 = [tex]\dfrac{5-3}{8}[/tex] of a mile

                                 = [tex]\dfrac{2}{8}[/tex] of a mile

                                 = [tex]\dfrac{1}{4}[/tex] of a mile

Matt has [tex]\dfrac{1}{4}[/tex] mile left to bike.

Answer:

(15 – 22x)/4x(2x – 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us take the numerator first:

(1/2x – 5) – (7/8x – 20) = (1/(2x – 5)) – (7/4(2x –5)) = (8x – 20 – 7(2x – 5))/(4(2x – 5)(2x – 5)

= (8x – 20 – 14x + 35)/4(2x – 5)² = (15 – 22x)/4(2x – 5)²

The denominator is: x/2x – 5

So we now have:

(15 – 22x)/4(2x – 5)² ÷ x/(2x – 5) = (15 – 22x)/4(2x – 5)² x (2x – 5) /X = (15 – 22x)/4x(2x – 5)

A. x=-5/12
B. x= -25/12
C. x= -1/15
D. x= 1/3​

Answers

Answer:

c. x = -1/15

Step-by-step explanation:

5/2x - 1/3 = -1/2 [multiply the whole equation by 6 (lowest common denom)

15x - 2 = -3 [add 2 on both sides of equation

15x = -1 [divide both sides by 15 to isolate x]

x = -1/15

Answer is c. Change the denominator of 1/3 and 1/2 to 6 so you have 3/6 for 1/2 and 2/6 for 1/3. then add 2/6 to both sides to get -1/6 then isolate x.

Chloe charged for admission to her play on three different nights. Each night, a
different number of people were in attendance, but remarkably, Chloe collected
S541 each night. If the admission charges for each child and each adult were $9
and S17, respectively, how many people in total came to the three showings?

Answers

Answer:

The number of people in total that came to the three showings is 138 people

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount Chloe collected each night for admission to her play = $541

The admission  charge for each child = $9

The admission  charge for each adult = $17

The number of people attending the play each of the three nights are different

Let x represent the number of children that attend the play on the first night and ley y represent the number of adults that attend, we have;

9·x + 17·y = 541

For the second night, we have;

9·a + 17·b = 541

For the third night, we have;

9·c + 17·d = 541

27·(x + a + c) + 51·(y + b + d) = 1,623

Using Microsoft Excel, where we create a series with the first term = 541 and the common difference, d = -9 and number the adjacent column serially from 1 to 61 and the on the right column we divide the created series by 17 then we search for the whole number combinations, we get three possible combinations as follows;

12 children and 26 adults

29 children and 17 adults

46 children and 8 adults

Therefore, the number of people in total that came to the three showings = 12 + 26 + 29 + 17 + 46 + 8 = 138

The number of people in total that came to the three showings = 138 people.

B) 1. Multiply the dividend by a multiple of 10 to create an integer. 2. Multiply the divisor by the same multiple of 10 as step 1. 3. Divide, and apply the rules for dividing signed numbers.

D) 1. Divide the dividend by a multiple of 10 to create an integer. 2. Divide the divisor by the same multiple of 10 as step 1. 3. Divide, and apply the rules for dividing signed numbers.

Answer:

A) 1. Multiply the divisor by a multiple of 10 to create an integer divisor. 2. Multiply the dividend by the same multiple of 10 as step 1. 3. Divide, and apply the rules for dividing signed numbers.

Step-by-step explanation:

In Mathematics, divisor is the number by which the dividend should be divided.

Now, if we want to divide a decimal by another decimal, to make things easy we have to transform both numbers from decimals to integer form to make direct division easier.

The first step will be to multiply the divisor by a multiple of 10. The multiple of 10 will depend on the number of decimal places.

The second step is to do the same to the dividend.

The last step would be to divide the integers by applying rules of division of numbers.

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

y = x + 5 ← in slope- intercept form

with slope m = 1

Parallel lines have equal slope, thus
