A pair of pants costs twice as much as a shirt. The total cost of 1 pair of pants and 1
shirt is $18. If s represents the cost of 1 shirt, which equation could you use to find the
cost of 1 shirt?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The equation, or more accurately, the system of equations we can use is:

x + y = 18

2x = y

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider that the cost of the shirt was x.

Consider the cost of the pants to be y.

Then, you can say that 2x = y since twice the cost of the shirt would give you the cost of the pants which are represented by y.

The next piece of information can be used to form the equation x + y = 18 since the cost of a pair of pants and a shirt are, in total, $18.

We can use a system of equations to answer this.

2x = y

x + y = 18

Since y = 2x, use substitution.

x + 2x = 18

3x = 18    (Divide both sides by 3)

x = 6

x represents the cost of the shirt and thus, the shirt costs $6.

The equation, or more accurately, the system of equations we can use is:

x + y = 18

2x = y

Answer 2

Answer:

2s+1s = 18

3s = 18

Since the question asks for the equation

Step-by-step explanation:

Let s = cost of 1 shirt

Pants cost twice the price of 1 shirt

p = 2s

We are buying 1 pair of pants and 1 shirt for 18 dollars

2s+1s = 18

Combining like terms

3s = 18

Either equation can be used to solve

We can divide by 3 to solve for the cost of 1 shirt

3s/3 = 18/3

s = 6

Complete the steps to find the area of the trapezoid.
Area of rectangle = square units
Area of triangle 1 = square units
Area of triangle 2 = square units
Area of triangle 3 = square units
Area of trapezoid = square units

Answers

Answer:

Area of rectangle: 256

Area of triangle 1: 24

Area of triangle 2: 16

Area of triangle 3: 96

Area of trapezoid: 120

Step-by-step explanation:

I just did the question on the thing so Ik I'm right.

-The graph measures by twos. To get the area of the rectangle get the base times height of it. That would be 16x16=256.

-Get base (8) times height (6) of triangle 1 then divide by 2, remember to count the squares by 2 for finding all areas. The formula would be 1/2(b)(h) because dividing by 2 is the same as multiplying times 1/2. Plug it in and     (8)(6)=48 then divide by 2 which equals 24.

-Same formula for triangle 2. Plug it in and (8)(4)=32 and divide by 2 and it equals 16.

-Same formula for triangle 3. Plugged in is (12)(16)=192 divide by 2 and it equals 96.

-To find the area of the trapezoid get your rectangle area (256) and subtract all the triangle areas. So 256 - 6 - 16 - 96 = 120.

The area of the given shapes are required.

A rectangle has a perimeter of 80 inches. Write an equation to represent the area A in terms of width w.


Do I use the perimeter?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]A = 40w-w^2[/tex]      

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Perimeter of rectangle = 80 inches.

Let l be the length and w be the width of rectangle.

Perimeter of rectangle =

[tex]P= 2(l+w)[/tex]

Putting values, we get,

[tex]80 = 2(l+w)\\40 = l+w\\\Rightarrow l = 40 - w[/tex]

Now, we have to find the area of the rectangle in terms of w.

Area of rectangle =

[tex]A = l\times w[/tex]

Putting values, we get

[tex]A = (40-w)w\\A = 40w-w^2[/tex]

is the required expression of area of rectangle in terms of w.

Yes, the perimeter is used to calculate the length of the rectangle in the term of w.

Andre says 10x + 6 and 5x + 11 are equivalent because they both equal 16 when x is 1. Do you agree with Andre?​

Answers

Answer:

No, They are not equivalent

Step-by-step explanation:

The two expressions are only said to be equivalent if they are the same regardless of whatever value the variable(s) is.

The variable in this question is x.

To prove this, we equate both expressions:

[tex]10x + 6 = 5x + 11[/tex]

[tex]10x - 5x = 11 - 6\\\\\\5x = 5\\\\\\x = 1[/tex]

This shows that they have the same value ONLY when x is 1.

This is why Andre says that they are equivalent, but they are not.

Final answer:

No, I do not agree with Andre because the two equations 10x + 6 and 5x + 11 are indeed equivalent.

Explanation:

No, I do not agree with Andre. Two equations are considered equivalent if they have the same solution for all values of x.

Let's check if 10x + 6 and 5x + 11 are equivalent by substituting x = 1 into both equations:

For 10x + 6: 10(1) + 6 = 10 + 6 = 16

For 5x + 11: 5(1) + 11 = 5 + 11 = 16

We can see that both equations indeed equal 16 when x is 1, so Andre is correct in this case. 10x + 6 and 5x + 11 are equivalent equations.

You raise $420 during a fundraising event. The amount of money that you raise is 120% of your goal. How much more did you raise than your goal?

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  $70

Step-by-step explanation:

The excess amount is 20% of the goal. The given amount is 120% of the goal, so the proportion of the given amount that is excess is ...

  (20% of goal)/(120% of goal) = 1/6

Then the excess is (1/6)($420) = $70.

You raised $70 more than the $350 goal.

Final answer:

The original fundraising goal was $350, and since $420 was raised, which is 120% of the goal, $70 more was raised than the goal.

Explanation:

To find out how much more was raised than the goal during the fundraising event, start by understanding the percentage given. The $420 raised is 120% of the goal, which means the goal amount represents 100%. To calculate the original goal, you should divide the amount raised by the percentage raised (expressed as a decimal), so you divide 420 by 1.2 (since 120% as a decimal is 1.2).

Now, calculate the goal amount:
420 / 1.2 = $350

Therefore, the original goal was $350. Since the amount raised was $420, we subtract the goal from the amount raised to determine how much more was raised:
420 - 350 = $70.

Thus, the amount raised exceeded the goal by $70.

Answers

Answer:  

P(red then green) = 5/8 * 3/7 = 15/56

Step-by-step explanation: Since this is a logical "and" case, we have to multiply the separate events' probabilities...thus  P(red then green) = 5/8 * 3/7 = 15/56

Answer:

3/28

Step-by-step explanation:

3 red+ 5 green = 8 marbles in the jar

1st marble:

P(red) = number of red/ total = 3/8

We keep the marble

2 red+ 5 green = 7 marbles in the jar

P(green) = number of green/ total = 2/7

P (red,keep,green) = P(red)* P(green) = 3/8*2/7 = 6/56 = 3/28

In ΔMNO NM = 3 cm, NO = 4 cm and MO = 5 cm. List the angles in order from smallest to largest.

Answers

By identifying triangle MNO as a right-angled triangle with MO as the hypotenuse, the angles are listed from smallest to largest based on their opposite sides: angle M (smallest), angle O (middle), and angle N (largest at 90 degrees).

The student has asked to list the angles of triangle right -angled MNO in order from smallest to largest, given that NM = 3 cm, NO = 4 cm, and MO = 5 cm. This is a case of a right-angled triangle where the sides satisfy the Pythagorean theorem, with MO being the hypotenuse. The angles of a triangle are inversely proportional to their opposite sides. Therefore, the angle opposite the longest side (MO) is the smallest, and the angle opposite the shortest side (NM) is the largest.

Steps to determine angle size:

Use the Pythagorean theorem to confirm the right angle.

Identify the smallest and largest sides to determine the smallest and largest angles.

Apply the fact that the sum of angles in a triangle is 180 degrees to find the middle angle.

Since 3² + 4² = 5², triangle MNO is a right-angled triangle with the right angle at angle N.

The smallest angle is thus at M, opposite the longest side MO.

The largest angle is at O, opposite the shortest side NM.

As angle N is 90 degrees, the remaining angle at O must be the second-largest angle.
