The prices per pound of different types of nuts are shown. write an expression that can be used to find the total cost of 2 pounds of peanuts, 3 pounds of cashews, and 1 pound of almonds, all for 20 % off.

Peanuts = $3.95 per pound
Cashews = $4.25 per pound
Almonds = $5.99 per pound

Please help! Thank you

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

expression for total cost is given by

[tex]0.80(3.95x+4.25y+5.99z)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we need to find the expression for the total cost

Let us find the cost for x pounds of peanut , y pounds of cashews and z pounds of almonds

cost of 1 pound of peanut = $3.95

cost of x pounds of peanut = $3.95x

cost of 1 pound of cashews = $4.25

cost of y pounds of cashews = $4.25y

cost of 1 pounds of almonds = $5.99

cost of z pounds of almonds = $5.99z

total cost = [tex]3.95x+4.25y+5.99z[/tex]

cost after 20% off = total cost - 20% of total cost

                                         = 80% of total cost  

cost after 20% off =80%[tex](3.95x+4.25y+5.99z)[/tex]

cost after 20% off =[tex]0.80(3.95x+4.25y+5.99z)[/tex]

now we can plug x= 2 , y= 3 and z=1

so we have

cost after 20% off =[tex]0.80(3.95(2)+4.25(3)+5.99(1))[/tex]  =$ 21.31          


Answer 2

The expression is ((2 x $3.95) + (3 x $4.25) + (1 x $5.99)) x (1 - 0.20) which equals to $21.31.

To find the total cost of 2 pounds of peanuts, 3 pounds of cashews, and 1 pound of almonds with a 20% discount, we need to first calculate the original total cost of the nuts without the discount.

We do this by multiplying each type of nut's price per pound by the number of pounds purchased and summing these amounts up.

The cost for the peanuts is 2 pounds x $3.95 per pound = $7.90.

For the cashews, it is 3 pounds x $4.25 per pound = $12.75.

For the almonds, it is 1 pound x $5.99 per pound = $5.99.

The sum of these costs will give us the total original cost.

The total original cost is therefore $7.90 (peanuts) + $12.75 (cashews) + $5.99 (almonds) = $26.64.

Next, we apply the 20% discount by multiplying the total original cost by 20% (or 0.20) to find the discount amount, and then subtract this discount amount from the total original cost to find the discounted total cost:

Discount amount = $26.64  imes 0.20 = $5.33. Discounted total cost = $26.64 - $5.33 = $21.31.

Therefore, the expression that can be used to find the total cost is: ((2 x $3.95) + (3 x $4.25) + (1 x $5.99)) x (1 - 0.20)

prove that the sum of the measures of the interior angles of a triangle 180 degrees be sure to create and name in the appropriate geometric figures

Answers

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

if ABC is a triangle then <]ABC + <}BCA +<}CAB = 180 degrees

Poof:

Draw line a through points A and B. Draw line B through point C and parallel to line a

Since line a and b are parallel <] BAC = <] B'CA and <]ABC = <}BCA'.

it is obvious that <}B'CA + <}ACB + <]BCA' = 180 degrees

Thus <]ABC + <)BCA + <)CAB = 180 degrees

Lemma:

if ABCD is quadrilateral and <)CAB = <}DCA then AB and DC are parallel.


Step-by-step explanation:

Consider a triangle ABC and let ∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180°

Construct a straight line DE running parallel to BC and passing though A.

Now let

∠BAC = 1

∠ABC = 2

∠ACB = 3

∠DAB = 4

∠EAC = 5

Therefore we know that

∠DAB = ∠ABC (alternate angles), so 4 = 2

∠EAC = ∠ACB (alternate angles), so 5 = 3

Now line CE is straight line and we know that angle for a straight line 180°.

Thus ∠DAB + ∠BAC + ∠EAC  = 180°

or      ∠ABC + ∠BAC + ∠ACB =  180°

or          ∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180°

Thus proved.

The results for a survey of 130 students who were selected randomly are listed below:

•70 students have a cell phone plan with company X
•32 students have a cell phone plan with company Y
•28 students do not have a cell phone
The total population of students was 390. Based on the data, what is the best approximation for the total number of students who have a cell phone plan with company X?

A) 210
B) 96
C) 84
D) 724

Answers

Answer:

A) 210

Step-by-step explanation:

The percentage of students who have a cell phone plan with company x is student with plan x over total.The total is 130

P(x) = 70/130

The number of students with cell phone  company x is  found by multiplying the total number of students times   the percentage of students with company x

Students with company x = total * P(x)

                                          = 390 * 70/130

                                             = 210

Answer:

A) 210

Step-by-step explanation:

70 students have company X, out of the sample size 130. This forms the fraction 70/130.

n students have company X, out of the population 390. The n is simply a placeholder for a number. This forms the fraction n/390

Equate the two fractions, cross multiply, then divide both sides by 130 to solve for n

Doing all that gives us the following

70/130 = n/390

70*390 = 130*n ..... cross multiply

27300 = 130n

130n = 27300

130n/130 = 27300/130 ...... divide both sides by 130

n = 210

Out of the entire population, the best approximation to the number of students who have company X is 210 people.

Find the value of x so that the line m is parallel to line I.

Answers

Answer is 32

Here's why:
If these two lines are parallel, it means those 2 angles, (3x+11)° and (4x-21)°, are equal. So to find X, you need to set the equation
[tex]3x + 11 = 4x - 21 \\ x - 21 = 11 \\ x = 32[/tex]
If you want to check if it's the right answer, you can go back to those two angles, and if you put 32 instead of X, you'll get two identical numbers (that is 107°)

23.3% ps the 3 is reapeating

Final answer:

The probability that Ari will select a sold-out item is 7/30 or approximately 23.33%.

Explanation:

The question asks about the probability that Ari will select an item that is already sold out from a candy machine with a certain configuration and number of sold-out items. To calculate this probability, we need to know the total number of items in the machine and how many are sold out.

There are five rows with six items each, giving a total of 30 items. With seven items sold out, there are 30 - 7 = 23 items available for purchase. The probability of selecting a sold-out item is the number of sold-out items divided by the total number of items. In this case, it's 7/30, which simplifies to 7/30.

So, if Ari randomly pushes a button on the candy machine, the probability that he will select an item that is already sold out is 7/30, or approximately 23.33%.

Out of 75 students, 15 are on the student council. What percent of the students are NOT on the student council?

Answers

Answer: 80%

15 are on the council, so 75-15 = 60 are not on the council. Therefore, 60/75 = 0.80 = 80% of the students aren't on the council.

An alternative way to find this answer is to compute 15/75 = 0.20 = 20% showing that 20% of the students are on the council, so 100% - 20% = 80% are not on the council.

Final answer:

To find the percent of students not on the student council, subtract the number of students on the council from the total number of students and calculate the percentage.

Explanation:

A rescue helicopter is used to help victims who fell in a ditch. The helicopter begins at sea level, which is an elevation of 0 feet. It then travels down for 100 seconds at a speed of 10.5 feet per second. It then travels directly up for 150 seconds at a speed of 5.2 feet per second. After this 250 second period, how much time, in seconds, will it take for the rescue helicopter to travel back to sea level at the helicopter's maximum speed of 15.8 feet per second?

Answers

Answer:

17 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

The rescue helicopter travels down for 100 seconds at a speed of 10.5 feet per second.

So, the distance it covered = 100(10.5) = 1050 feet.

It then travels directly up for 150 seconds at a speed 5.2 feet per second.

So, the distance = 150(5.2) = 780 feet

Now, the distance from sea level = 1050 - 780 = 270 feet.

It will reach this distance with a maximum speed of 15.8 feet per second.

Hence, the time required to reach this distance = [tex]\frac{distance}{speed}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{270}{15.8}[/tex]

A local amusement park charges $21.50 per daily adult ticket and $14.75 per daily child's ticket. A group of 12 people paid $204.00 for tickets. Which system of equations could be used to find x, the number of adult tickets purchased, and y, the number of children's tickets purchased

Answers

Answer:

[tex]x+y=12[/tex]

[tex]21.50x+14.75y=204[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of adult tickets and y be the number of children's tickets.

We are given that there are total 12 people. Therefore, we can set:

[tex]x+y=12[/tex]

Moreover, we are given that an adult ticket costs $21.50 and a child's ticket costs $14.75, therefore, cost of x adult tickets will be [tex]21.50x[/tex] and cost of y children's ticket will be [tex]14.75y[/tex]. We can form the second equation by setting the total cost of tickets as:

[tex]21.50x+14.75y=204[/tex]

Therefore, the required system of equations that could be used to find x and y will be:

[tex]x+y=12[/tex]

[tex]21.50x+14.75y=204[/tex]

Answer:


[tex]x+y = 12[/tex]


[tex]21.50x+14.75y=204.00[/tex]


Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

A local amusement park charges $21.50 per daily adult ticket and $14.75 per daily child's ticket.

Group of 12 people paid $204.00 for tickets.

To Find : System of equations could be used to find x, the number of adult tickets purchased, and y, the number of children's tickets purchased.

Solution :

Since group contains 12 people so no. of tickets are 12 .

Let out of 12 people no. of adults's tickets  are x.

Let out of 12 people no. of children's ticket are y .


⇒[tex]x+y = 12[/tex]


Since charge of one adult ticket = $21.50

So, charge of x adult tickets = $21.50 x

Since charge of one child ticket = $14.75

So, charge of y children tickets =$14.75 y

And we are given that total amount paid by these 12 people = $204.00


Thus [tex]21.50x+14.75y=204.00[/tex]


Hence , System of equations could be used to find x, the number of adult tickets purchased, and y, the number of children's tickets purchased:


[tex]x+y = 12[/tex]


[tex]21.50x+14.75y=204.00[/tex]
