A pen costs twice as much as a pencil. 7 pens and 12 pencils cost a total of $6.50. What is the price of one pencil?


- Please show your work, I know the answer, but I just don’t know HOW to get the answer.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

$ 2.167

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost of a pencil be x and that of a pen be y.

A pen costs twice as much as a pencil.

==> cost of a pen = 2 × cost of a pencil

==> y = 2x

Their total cost is $6.50

==> x + y = $6.50

since y = 2x, substituting y for 2x

==> x + 2x = 6.50

==> 3x = 6.50

dividing both sides by 3

==> x = 2.16

As per our assumption, x is the cost of one pencil.

Therefore, the cost of a pencil is $2.167

How to Calculate discount rate

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\frac{i\times d}{100}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the discount, we multiply the initial amount (i) to the discount (d) and then divide that answer by 100. After we find that answer we then subtract it from the initial price.

For example:

A computer costs $695 and it has a 7% discount. Calculate the total costs of the computer after the 7% discount.

[tex]\frac{695\times7}{100} =695\times7=4865\div100=48.65[/tex]
[tex]695-48.65=646.35[/tex]
[tex]c=646.35[/tex]

The computer (after a 7% discount) costs "$646.35 dollars."

Hope this helps.

So , there is this thing that says : "the circumference of a circle is 7,850 , whats the radious?

Answers

Answer:

1250 (corrected to 3 significant figures)

Step-by-step explanation:

the formula to calculate circumference is 2πr, where r is the radius.

hence, we can form the equation

2πr = 7850

r ≈ 1249.3663

= 1250 (corrected to 3 significant figures)

What is the measure of angle Y in this figure

Y=____ degrees

Answers

Answer:

163

Step-by-step explanation:

What's great about these problems is that when there is a line that is divided by another line, causing 2 angles, the 2 angles must equal 180 degrees.  That means the 163-degree angle + either the x or the z angle would equal 180 degrees.  The second best part about this is that if it is separated how yours is, with 2 lines, opposite angles are equal.  That means that angle x and angle z are equal, as well as the 163 angle is equal to the y angle.  Hope this helps with more than just this problem!

Step-by-step explanation:

negative times negative is positive so squared can be negative or positive

Answer:

x = -5, x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Tangents to a circle drawn to a point outside the circle are equal in length.  Therefore, AB = AC.

Given:

AB = x² + 8AC = 33

                                              AB = AC

                                      ⇒ x² + 8 = 33

Subtract 8 from both sides:   x² = 25

Square root both sides:          x = ±5

Therefore,                                x = -5, x = 5

Joel borrowed 518,000 for 6 years at simple interest to purchase a vehicle. If Joel repaid a
total of $20,953.80, at what rate did he borrow the money?

Answers

Answer:

  2.735%

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount due on principal P after t years at rate r is ...

  A = P(1 +rt)

Filling in the given values, we can solve for r:

  20,953.80 = 18000(1 +6r)

  20953.80/18000 -1 = 6r = 0.1641

  r = 0.1641/6 = 0.02735 = 2.735%

Joel's interest rate was 2.735%.

What prism or other 3-dimensional shape would you use to model the tree trunk below? (Rectangular prism, triangular prism, square prism, or cylinder). If the height of the tree trunk is 13 ft and the radius is 1.5 ft, what is the volume in cubic feet?

— I will use cylinder to model the tree trunk since it's looks like. (Please refer to the pic)

where,

V is the Volumeπ (pi) is the constant 3.14r is the radiush is the height

– This formula is used when the radius of the base is given.

Solution:

Remember that radius has to be multiplied by itself (squared). And pi (π) is the constant 3.14.

– Using the formula above, substitute the givens in the formula then solve.

[tex] V=πr²h[/tex]

[tex]V=3.14 \times (1.5)² \times 13[/tex]

A construction company takes 1 3/8 hours to remove 2 1/2 metric tons of dirt from a construction site. What is the unit rate in metric tons per hour? Write your answer as a fraction or a mixed number in simplest form.
PLEASE HELP!! NO LINKS PLZ

Answers

Answer:

  1 9/11 T/h

Step-by-step explanation:

You want the unit rate in metric tons per hour of removal of 2 1/2 metric tons in 1 3/8 hours.

Unit rate

The unit rate in tons per hour is found by dividing tons by hours:

  (2 1/2 T)/(1 3/8 h) = (5/2 T)/(11/8 h) = (20/8 T)/(11/8 h) = 20/11 T/h

 = 1 9/11 T/h

The unit rate is 20/11 metric tons per hour, or 1 9/11 metric tons per hour.

a. It would increase.
b. It would stay the same.
c. It would decrease.

c. It would decrease

Step-by-step explanation:

When you increase the sample size, you decrease the standard/marginal error since you have a bigger representation of the population. However, this would take time and money to collect data for these big samples.

Alec and Beau race to compute 1 + 2 + 3 + ... + n. Alec skips two numbers and gets a sum of 92. Beau double-counts two numbers and gets a sum of 145. What is the value of n?

Answers

Answer:

n = {14, 15, 16}

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a sum of the first n terms of an AP:

S = (1 + n)*n/2

The true sum is between 92 and 145:

92 < n(n + 1)/2 < 145184 < n(n + 1) < 290184 < n² + n < 290185 < (n + 1/2)² < 291√185 < n + 1/2 < √29114 ≤ n < 17

Let n = 14

S = 14*15/2 = 105

Let n = 15

S = 15*16/2 = 120

Let n = 16

S = 16*17/2 = 136
