a local boys club sold 156 bags of mulch and made a total of $455 it's sold two types of mulch hard word for $3.25 a bag in Pine Box for $2.75 a bag how many bags of each kind did it sell

Answers

Answer 1

Let's define first the variables.

let H be the number of bags of the type that cost 3.25 and P the number of bags of the type that cost 2.75.

since they sold a total of 156 bags we have that H+P=156

and from the other condition we obtain 3.25H+2.75P=455

now we can solve the system of equations.

from the first equation H=156-P

substituing the previous equality in the second one we obtain:

[tex]3.25(156-P)+2.75P=455[/tex][tex]507-3.25P+2.75P=455[/tex][tex](2.75-3.25)P=-53[/tex][tex]0.5P=53[/tex][tex]P=106[/tex]

now that we have P, we can replace it in the first equation obtaining that H=50

then the answer will be that they sold 50 bags of $3.25 and 106 bags of $2.75

Angle IJL is 54 because congruent angles have equal measure.

What are congruent angles?

Congruent angles are two or more angles that are identical to each other. Thus, the measure of these angles is equal to each other. The type of angles does not make any difference in the congruence of angles, which means they can be acute, obtuse, exterior, or interior angles.

According to question, angle m IKL = 54

And AB// CD and EF// GH

Angle IKL is alternate interior angle to angle HLK

m angle HLK= m angle IKL (congruent angles have equal measure)

m angle HLK= 54

Similarly, m angle IJL = m angle HLK

where t is the year and t=0 corresponds to 1982.

How many federally insured banks were there in 1987?


Find the slope of the graph of B.

Answers

There were 120150 federally insured bank in the year 1987. The slope of the graph of B is -326.6.

The provided function B(x) states the number of federally insured banks from 1982-2004.

The function B(x) is,

B(x) = -326.6t + 13783

Here t is representing the year,

This function is a linear function corresponding to an equation of line,

If according to the situation,

t = 0, signifies the year 1982,

Then the year 1983 should be represented by t = 1.

On continuing the pattern the year 1987 should be represented by t = 5.

So, the number of federally insured banks in year 1987 can be found by putting t = 5 in B(x),

B(5) = -326.6(5) + 13783

B(5) = 12150.

The number of banks federally insured in year 1987 is 12150.

The function is B(x)= -326.6t + 1783,

This is representing the point-slope form of the line,

y = mx + c,

On comparing the provided function with the standard equation we can see,

Slope m = -326.6

So the slope of the function is -326.6.

M is the midpoint of the line segment FG.

Being the midpoint means that M divides the line in two equal halves so you know that the distance between F and M is equal to the distance between M and G, symbolically:

FM=MG

And of you add them you'll be able to calculate the length of the whole line FG

34.

Given the expressions

FM= 5y+13

MG=5-3y

We know that FM=MG, so the first step is to replace this equivalency with the given expressions. This way you'll determine an equation with one unknown y.

Once you have the equation you can clear the value of y:

[tex]\begin{gathered} FM=MG \\ 5y+13=5-3y \end{gathered}[/tex]

Pass all terms with the unknown to one side of the equation and all others to the other side:

[tex]\begin{gathered} 5y+3y=5-13 \\ 8y=-8 \\ y=-1 \end{gathered}[/tex]

y=-1

Now that you know the value of y, you can replace it in the given expressions to calculate the length of FG

[tex]\begin{gathered} FG=FM+MG \\ FG=(5y+13)+(5-3y) \\ FG=5y+13+5-3y \\ FG=2y+18 \\ \text{Replace with y=-1} \\ FG=2(-1)+18 \\ FG=16 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Answer to question (b) that is if [tex]A^{T}[/tex] y = c has a solution and Ax = 0 then x is perpendicular to c.

a) As Ax = b has a solution for x this means b lies in the column space of A. We also know that [tex]A^{T}[/tex] y = 0. This means y lies in the orthogonal complement of the column space of A or in the left null space of A. Therefore y is perpendicular to b

Answers

Weight of one apple is 8 ounces.

We have to calculate the weight of one apple. For that firstly, we have to calculate the weight of one apple in pounds because we have been given the weight of 96 apples in pounds. After that, we will convert it into ounces and we know that one pound is equal to 16 ounces.

A bushel has 96 apples.

We have been given weight of 1 bushel which is 48 pounds.

Weight of 96 apples = 48 pounds

We have to calculate weight of one apple.

Weight of one apple = 48/96 = 1/2 pound

1 pound = 16 ounces.

Now, we have to convert pounds into ounces

Weight of one apple = 1/2 * 16 ounces

= 8 ounces

Hence, the answer is 8 ounces.

the range is the interval or set of all valid values for y or f(x) (the function result variable).

the functional result values for the first piece :

x - 4 for 0 <= x < 2

for x = 0 we get y = -4

for x = 2 we get y = -2

the range for this piece is [‐4, -2).

we use the round bracket to indicate -2 itself is not included, as we have x < 2 (and not x <= 2).

the functional result values for the second piece :

x² - 3x + 4 for 2 <= x < 4

for x = 2 we get 4-6+4 = 2

for x = 4 we get 16-12+4 = 8

the range for this piece is [2, 8)

again, because of x < 4 we use the ")" for 8 (not included).

the functional result values for the third piece :

5 for 4 <= x < 7

the range is simply [5) = [5] because the set contains only one element.

and 5 is already contained in the range of the second piece.

so, the range is just the combination of the ranges of the first 2 pieces :
