Car dealerships claim to make most of their money from servicing cars. In a certain month, an Acura dealership sold fifteen less used cars than twice the number of new cars. In the smae month, they serviced fifty more than twelve times the number of new cars sold. If the dealership either sold or services a total of 335 cars that month, how many new cars were sold that month? How many use? How many serviced?

Answers

Answer:

New cars sold = 20,

Used cars sold = 25

Cars serviced = 290

Step-by-step explanation:

In a month they sold fifteen less used cars than twice the number of new cars.

Lets say 'x' number of new cars were sold, then:

The number of used car sold is:

[tex]2\times x-15=2x-15[/tex]

In the same month they serviced fifty more than twelve times the number of new cars sold. So the number of cars serviced is:

[tex]12\times x+50=12x+50[/tex]

Altogether they sold or serviced 335 cars, so the sum of all the cars sold and serviced should be 335:

[tex]x+(2x-15)+(12x+15)=335[/tex]

Solving for 'x' we get:

[tex]x+2x+12x-15+50=335[/tex]

[tex]15x+35=335[/tex]

[tex]15x=335-35=300[/tex]

[tex]x=\frac{300}{15}=20[/tex]

Therefore, the number of new cars sold in that month is 20.

Number of used car sold [tex]=2x-15=2\times 20-15=40-15=25[/tex]

Number of cars serviced [tex]=12\times x+50=12\times20+50=240+50=290[/tex]

We can also cross check by summing them up:

[tex]290+25+20=335[/tex]

helppp

Answers

First, multiply -4(2) and -4(x).
The equation is now 7 - 3x = x - 8 - 4x
Now add 8 on both sides to remove the 8 on the right side.
15 - 3x = x - 4x
Solve the right side; x - 4x
15 - 3x = -3x
Now add 3x ok both sides to get x alone in one side.
15 = 0
Therefore, the answer to this equation is no solution, as 15 does not equal to 0 and this can not be solved.

is 1000 a perfect cube?

Answers

Think of a cube with side lengths of 10.

The volume of the cube will be L*W*H = 10*10*10 = 1000

This volume of 1000 is what we consider a perfect cube.

Answer: yes

10*10*10=[tex]10^{3}[/tex]

10*10*10=1,000

1,000 is a perfect cube, because 10^3 is 1,000.

Answer:

Expression which represents “seventeen more than one-fourth y” is:

[tex]\dfrac{1}{4}y+17[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find a expression which represents

“seventeen more than one-fourth y”

one-fourth y= [tex]\dfrac{1}{4}y[/tex]

So, seventeen more than one-fourth y= [tex]\dfrac{1}{4}y+17[/tex]

Hence, expression which represents “seventeen more than one-fourth y” is:

The lateral surface area of cone A is equal to the lateral surface area of cylinder B.
True or false

Answers

Answer:

TRUE

Step-by-step explanation:

Lateral area of cone is given by: πrl

where r is the radius and l is the slant height

Here r=r and l=2h

Hence, lateral area of cone A= π×r×2h

                                            =  2πrh

Lateral area of cylinder is given by: 2πrh

where r is the radius and h is the height

Lateral area of cylinder B=2πrh

Clearly, both the lateral areas are equal

Hence, the statement that:The lateral surface area of cone A is equal to the lateral surface area of cylinder B. is:

True

The points (0, 1), (1, 5), (2, 25), (3, 125) are on the graph of a function. Which equation represents that function? f(x) = 2x f(x) = 3x f(x) = 4x f(x) = 5x

Answers

Answer:

Option D is the correct answer.

Explanation:

 The points (0, 1), (1, 5), (2, 25), (3, 125) are on the graph of a function.

We need to find f(x)

Checking each options.

a) f(x) = [tex]2^x[/tex]

    For (0,1)

              f(0) = [tex]2^0=1[/tex]

    For (1,5)

              f(1) =  [tex]2^1=2[/tex], given that f(1) = 5, so option A is wrong.

b) f(x) = [tex]3^x[/tex]

   For (0,1)

              f(0) = [tex]3^0=1[/tex]

    For (1,5)

              f(1) =  [tex]2^1=3[/tex], given that f(1) = 5, so option B is wrong.

c) f(x) = [tex]4^x[/tex]

   For (0,1)

              f(0) = [tex]4^0=1[/tex]

    For (1,5)

              f(1) =  [tex]4^1=4[/tex], given that f(1) = 5, so option C is wrong.

d) f(x) = [tex]5^x[/tex]

   For (0,1)

              f(0) = [tex]5^0=1[/tex]

    For (1,5)

              f(1) =  [tex]5^1=5[/tex]

   For (2,25)

               f(2) =  [tex]5^2=25[/tex]

  For (3,125)

               f(3) =  [tex]5^3=125[/tex]

 So all values are satisfied Option D is the correct answer.


Triangle ABC has vertices at A(−1 , 2), B(4, 2), and C(3, −1). Classify the triangle according to the side lengths.

A) equilateral
B) isosceles
C) right
D) scalene

Answers

Answer:

B) Isosceles

Step-by-step explanation:

The given triangle has vertices at A(-1,2), B(4,2) and C(3,-1).

We must first determine the length of the sides of the triangle, before we can classify it.

We apply the distance formula to find length of the sides.

[tex]|AB|=\sqrt{(4--1)^2+(2-2)^2}[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow |AB|=\sqrt{(4+1)^2+(2-2)^2}[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow |AB|=\sqrt{5^2+(0)^2}[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow |AB|=\sqrt{25}[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow |AB|=5 units[/tex].

The length of side BC

[tex]|BC|=\sqrt{(3-4)^2+(-1-2)^2}[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow |BC|=\sqrt{(-1)^2+(-3)^2}[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow |BC|=\sqrt{1+9}[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow |BC|=\sqrt{10}[/tex]

The length of side AC

[tex]|AC|=\sqrt{(3--1)^2+(-1-2)^2}[/tex]

We simplify to obtain;

[tex]|AC|=\sqrt{(3+1)^2+(-3)^2}[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow |AC|=\sqrt{(4)^2+(-3)^2}[/tex]

[tex]|AC|=\sqrt{16+9}[/tex]

[tex]|AC|=\sqrt{25}[/tex]

[tex]|AC|=5\:units[/tex]

Since [tex]|AC|=5\:units=|AB|[/tex], the given triangle is an isosceles triangle.

The correct answer is

Answer:

B) isosceles

Substitute:

[tex]\dfrac{-2+3}{2}=\dfrac{1}{2}=0.5\\\\\dfrac{5+(-3)}{2}=\dfrac{2}{2}=1[/tex]

Answer: (0.5, 1).

Answer:

The midpoint of AB is (0.5,1).

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given graph it is clear that the vertices of the triangle ABC are A(-2,5), B(3,-3) and C(-4,-1).

If end points of a line segment are [tex](x_1,y_1)[/tex] and [tex](x_2,y_2)[/tex], then the midpoint of that segment is

[tex]Midpoint=(\frac{x_1+x_2}{2},\frac{y_1+y_2}{2})[/tex]

We need to find the midpoint of AB.

[tex]Midpoint=(\frac{-2+3}{2},\frac{5+(-3)}{2})[/tex]

[tex]Midpoint=(\frac{1}{2},\frac{5-3}{2})[/tex]

On further simplification we get

[tex]Midpoint=(\frac{1}{2},\frac{2}{2})[/tex]

[tex]Midpoint=(0.5,1)[/tex]

Therefore the midpoint of AB is (0.5,1).

A case of 24 pairs of the same kind of sports shoes costs a little more than $800.Explain whether $28 per pair with tax included is a good estimate.

Answers

No because 24 times 28 is 672

Answer:

$28 per pair is not a good estimate.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent cost of each pair with tax.

We have been given that a case of 24 pairs of the same kind of sport shoes cost a little more than $800.

The cost of 24 pairs would be [tex]24x[/tex].

[tex]24x>800[/tex]

[tex]\frac{24x}{24}>\frac{800}{24}[/tex]

[tex]x>33.33[/tex]

Since the cost of each pair is greater than $33.33, therefore, $28 is not a good estimate.

Final answer:

The correct graph that represents the equation 2x + 4y = 24 is option A, which shows a line through the points (0, 6) and (12, 0).

Explanation:

The equation 2x + 4y = 24 can be rearranged to y = -0.5x + 6. This means that the equation represents a linear function with a slope of -0.5 and a y-intercept of 6.

Option A, which shows a line through the points (0, 6) and (12, 0), is the correct graph since it satisfies the equation. The slope is -0.5 and the y-intercept is 6.
