It costs $10 to enter a petting zoo. Each cup of food to feed the animals is $2. If you have $14, write and solve an equation to determine how many cups of food you can buy.

PLEASE WRITE AN EQUATION

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

5 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

To do this simply, we can just count up how many cups we can buy.

starting balance=

$12.50

after cup 1=

12.5−2.5=$10.00

after cup 2=

10−2.5=$7.50

after cup 3=

7.5−2.5=$5.00

after cup 4=

5−2.5=$2.50

after cup 5=

2.5−2.5=$0.00

From this, we can see that after buying the 5th

cup, the buyer is out of money, so that means that you can buy

5 cups of food to feed the animals before running out of money.

Answer 2

The number of cups is 2 cups

The equation is y = 2x + 10 where the slope of the equation x is the number of cups and y is the total amount

What is an Equation of a line?

The equation of a line is expressed as y = mx + b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

And y - y₁ = m ( x - x₁ )

y = y-coordinate of second point

y₁ = y-coordinate of point one

m = slope

x = x-coordinate of second point

x₁ = x-coordinate of point one

The slope m = ( y₂ - y₁ ) / ( x₂ - x₁ )

Given data ,

Let the equation be represented as A

Now , the value of A is

Let the total number of cups be = x

The total amount y = $ 14

The cost of entering the zoo = $ 10

The cost of of feeding the animals per cup = $ 2

So , the equation will be

Total amount y = cost of entering the zoo + ( total number of cups x cost of of feeding the animals per cup )

Substituting the values in the equation , we get

y = 2x + 10   be equation (1)

On simplifying the equation , we get

14 = 2x + 10

Subtracting 10 on both sides of the equation , we get

2x = 4

Divide by 2 on both sides of the equation , we get

x = 2 cups

Therefore , the value of x is 2 cups

Hence , the number of cups is 2 cups

160​

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Rational numbers:

(150+160)/2 = 310/2 = 155

(150+155)/2 = 305/2= 152.5

(155 +160)/2 = 315/2= 157.5

155, 152.5 , 157.5 are rational numbers between 150 and 160

Irrational numbers:

Irrational numbers are numbers that are non terminating and non repeating numbers

Find the volume of the sphere. Either enter an exact answer in terms of π πpi or use 3.14 3.143, point, 14 for π πpi and round your final answer to the nearest hundredth.
radius is 8

Answers

Answer:

Solution :-

Volume of sphere = 4/3 πr³

Volume = 4/3 × 3.14 × 8³

Volume = 4/3 × 3.14 × 512

Volume = 4/3 × 1607.68

Volume = 2143 in³

[tex] \\ [/tex]

Given:-

Radius of the sphere is 8 units.

To Find:-

The volume of the sphere.

Solution:-

We know, volume of sphere is [tex] \frac{4}{3} [/tex]πr³

So, volume of sphere = [tex] \frac{4}{3} [/tex] × 3.14 × 8 × 8 × 8

= [tex] \frac{6430.72}{3} [/tex]

= 2143.6

write a quadratic function in the given form whose graph satisfies the given condition.
passes through (-4, 0), (2, 0), & (6, -20) in intercept form.
pls dont just steal points away...i rly need help with this...can you provide work to if not thats ok

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\displaystyle y=-\frac{1}{2}(x+4)(x-2)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find a quadratic that passes through the points:

[tex](-4, 0), \, (2, 0), \text{ and } (6, -20)[/tex]

In intercept form.

First, note that the first two given points are the x-intercepts of our quadratic. Intercept or factored form is given by:

[tex]y=a(x-p)(x-q)[/tex]

Where p and q are the x-intercepts, and a is the leading coefficient.

So, we will substitute -4 and 2 for p and q:

[tex]y=a(x-(-4))(x-(2))[/tex]

Simplify:

[tex]y=a(x+4)(x-2)[/tex]

Next, the third point (6, -20) tells us that y = -20 when x = 6. So:

[tex](-20)=a(6+4)(6-2)[/tex]

Solve for a:

[tex]-20=10(4)a\Rightarrow 40a=-20[/tex]

Thus:

[tex]\displaystyle a=\frac{-20}{40}=-\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Hence, our equation in intercept from is:

[tex]\displaystyle y=-\frac{1}{2}(x+4)(x-2)[/tex]

Each exterior angle of a regular decagon has a measure of (3x + 6)°. What is the value of x? x = 8 x = 10 x = 13 x = 18

Answers

Answer:

x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Each exterior angle of a regular decagon has a measure of (3x + 6)°. What is the value of x?

The sum of the exterior angles of a decagon = 360°

Decagon = 10 sides

Each angle in a decagon = 360/10

= 36°

We are told that:

Each exterior angle of a regular decagon has a measure of (3x + 6)°.

Hence,

(3x + 6)° = 36°

Collect like terms

3x = 36 - 6

3x = 30

x = 30/3

x = 10
