A supporting goods store sells 2 fishing reels and 5 fishing rods for $243. Later, they still 8 fishing reels and 6 fishing rods for $538. Find the price of each item.
Answers
x: price of fishing reels
y: price of fishing rods
We write the system of equations:
2x + 5y = 243
8x + 6y = 538
Solving the system we have:
x = 44 $
y = $ 31
Answer:
the price of each item is:
x = 44 $
y = $ 31
2x + 5y = 243 - I'll solve this one for x.
8x + 6y = 538
2x + 5y = 243
2x = 243 - 5y
2 2
x = 121.5 - 2.5y ; substitute this in for x in the second equation
8x + 6y = 538
8 (121.5 - 2.5y) + 6y = 538
972 - 20y + 6y = 538
972 - 14y = 538
-972 -972
-14y = -434
-14 -14
y = 31
The cost of a rod (y) is $31.
x = 121.5 - 2.5y
x = 121.5 - 2.5 x 31
x = 44
The cost of a reel(x) is $44.

A number cube is rolled 120 times. The number 4 comes up 47 times. What is the experimental probability of rolling a 4? What is the theoretical probability of rolling a 4?

B. 47/120; 1/6 ******
C. 4/47; 1/6
D. 1/6; 47/120
Am I Correct?
Answers
(Your answer is B, right?)
A number cube is rolled 120 times. The number 4 comes up 47 times.
We have to determine the experimental probability of rolling a 4.
The formula to evaluate probability of an event is given by:
Probability = [tex] \frac{Favourable outcomes}{Total outcomes} [/tex]
So, Probability of rolling a 4 = [tex] \frac{ Total number of times when 4 appears}{Total number of times number cube rolled} [/tex]
= [tex] \frac{47}{120} [/tex]
Now, we have to find the theoretical probability of rolling a 4.
Total number of outcomes of number cube = {1,2,3,4,5,6}
Probability of rolling a 4 = [tex] \frac{1}{6} [/tex]
So, Option B is the correct answer.

find two consecutive even integers such that twice the smaller is 16 more than the larger
Answers
Let one of the numbers be x.
The other number is x + 2
Construct equation:
twice the smaller is 16 more than the larger
⇒2x = x + 2 - 16
Solve x:
2x = x + 2 - 16
x = -14
Find the two numbers:
Smaller number = x = -14
Larger number = x + 2 = -12
Answer: The two numbers are -14 and -12
x+2=y; since they're consecutive even numbers. We will use that equation to represent y.
Twice the smaller; 2x
16 more than the larger; 16+x+2
2x=16+x+2; let's add like terms.
2x=18+x
Let's subtract x from both sides.
x=18
If the smaller number is 18, the bigger number is 20.
The two numbers are 18 and 20.

So one of the x intercepts is 0 and the other one is -7.
The reasons are known because the factors can be equated to 0. It does not look to me like there is exact symmetry. There is a local minimum however at what the graph says is (-2,-6.5 or so)
You could differentiate that to find the exact point, but you are not asked for that.
So the domain is from -∞ to zero and 0 to plus ∞ I think you have to exclude 0 even though it is an x intercept.
The graph decreases from -∞ < x < -2
It increases from -2 < x < 0
It decreases form 0< x < ∞

If AC = 12 and BC = 5 then AB = 12-5 = 7
so we get:
(7+5) *5 = (ED+4)*4
12*5 = (ED+4)*4
60 = (ED+4)*4
60/4 = (ED+4)
15 = ED +4
ED = 15-4 = 11
now add ED + DC to get EC

Which graph shows the same end behavior as the graph of f(x) = 2x6 – 2x2 – 5?
Answers
[tex]Given \ function : \ f(x) = 2x^6-2x^2-5[/tex]
In order to find the end behavior of the graph, we need to find the degree of the given function and the leading coefficent.
Degree of the given function is the highest power of the variable.
We have variable x there.
Highest power of x is 6.
So, we can say:
Degree = 6 ( an even degree)
And leading coefficent is the coefficent of highest power term.
We have highest power term is 2x^6.
So, the leading coefficent is : 2 (Positive number)
For even degree and positive leading coefficent, end behaviour is

A tunnel is in the shape of a parabola. The maximum height is 16 m and it is 16 m wide at the base, as shown below.
What is the vertical clearance 7 m from the edge of the tunnel?
Answers
Explanation:
1) Since the vertex is at the origin, i.e point (0,0), and the simmetry axis is paralell to the vertical axis, you know that the canonical equation of the parabola is:
y = -4px², where p is the focal distance.
You can also use y = ax², where a = -4p.
2) Using y = ax², you can find a from the fact that at x = 8 (one edge of the tunnel), y = - 16 ( negative value of the height).
Substitute those values (8,16) in the equation y = ax², and you get:
- 16 = a (8²) ⇒ a = - 16 / 64 = - 1/4
Therefore, the equation of the parabola is: y = (-1/4)x².
3) To find the vertical clearance at 7 m from the edge of the tunnel, you must realize that the x-coordinate is x = 8 - 7 = 1.
Then, find y for x = 1:
y = (-1/4)(1²) = - 1/4 = - 0.25
That is the y-coordinate; the clearance is the 16m - 0.25m = 15.75m

Answers
Answer:
Number is 23.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given the information when a number is divided by 22 the remainder is 1.
And when it is added to 5 it will give us an even number.
So, the number 23 if we take when divided by 22 it will give the remainder 1.
And when added to 5 it will give 23+5=28 which is an even number.
So, the number is 23.

An irregularly shaped stone was lowered into a graduated cylinder holding a volume of water equal to 20mL. The height of the water rose to 30.2mL. If the mass of the stone was 25g what was its density?
Answers
density = 2.4509 g/ml
Explanation:
1- getting the volume of the stone:
since the stone has an irregular shape, the volume of the stone would be equal to the increase in the volume of the stone after placing the stone in it.
Initial volume of water = 20 ml
Final volume of water = 30.2 ml
volume of stone = final volume of water - initial volume of water
volume of stone = 30.2 - 20 = 10.2 ml
2- getting the density of the stone:
we have:
volume of stone = 10.2 ml
mass of stone = 25 g
Therefore, we can get the density as follows:
density = mass / volume
density = 25 / 10.2
density = 2.4509 g/ml
Hope this helps :)
To find the density of the stone, subtract the initial volume of water from the final volume, then divide the mass of the stone by the volume. The density of the stone is 2.45 g/cm³.
Explanation:In order to find the density of the stone, we first need to calculate its volume. The volume can be determined by subtracting the initial volume of water in the graduated cylinder from the final volume with the stone submerged. In this case, the volume of the stone is 30.2 mL - 20 mL = 10.2 mL.
Next, we can use the formula for density: density = mass/volume. Plugging in the given values, we have density = 25 g/10.2 mL.
Since density is mass divided by volume, we need to convert mL to g/cm³. 1 mL is equal to 1 g/cm³. Therefore, the density of the stone is 25 g/10.2 mL = 2.45 g/cm³.

The question relates to combinatorial mathematics and asks for possible arrangements of 5 cars of three different colors. Treating identical colors as one entity, we find that there are 6 ways to arrange the color groups and another 6 ways to arrange the red cars among themselves, resulting in 36 possible arrangements.
Explanation:The subject of this question is combinatorial mathematics. We're asked how many different arrangements there are if we have 5 cars to be displayed in 5 parking spaces, with the condition that the cars are identical besides their color; 3 of them are red, 1 is blue, and 1 is yellow.
Since three cars are identical (red ones), we treat them as one. So initially, we have three 'entities' to arrange: the red group (of 3 cars), the blue car, and the yellow car. These can be arranged in 3! (which means 3 factorial, or 3 * 2 * 1) = 6 ways.
However, within the red group, those 3 red cars can be arranged amongst themselves in 3! = 6 ways.
Therefore, to get the total number of arrangements, we multiply these results together, giving us: 6 * 6 = 36 different arrangements.
