Grace is going to a carnival that has games and rides. Each game costs $1.50 and each ride costs $2.50. Grace spent $16.50 altogether at the carnival and the number of games she played is twice the number of rides she went on. Write a system of equations that could be used to determine the number of games Grace played and the number of rides Grace went on.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Number of Rides:     [tex]5.5R = 16.5[/tex]  

Number of Games:    [tex]1.5G = 9[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Represent the games with G and the Rides with R

[tex]G = 1.50[/tex] -- cost

[tex]R = 2.50[/tex] --- cost

[tex]Total = 16.50[/tex] -- cost

Required

Represent the system using an equation

The equation can be represented as follows;

[tex]G + R = Total[/tex]

Assume She plays G games and had R rides, we have

[tex]1.5G + 2.5R = 16.5[/tex]

Since she plays twice as much games as rides,

This implies;

[tex]G = 2R[/tex]

So, we have

[tex]1.5 * 2R + 2.5R = 16.5[/tex]

[tex]3R + 2.5R = 16.5[/tex]

[tex]5.5R = 16.5[/tex] --- This equation can be used to solve for Number of Rides

Solving further

[tex]R =16.5/5.5[/tex]

[tex]R =3[/tex]

Substitute 3 for R in [tex]1.5G + 2.5R = 16.5[/tex]

[tex]1.5G + 2.5 * 3 = 16.5[/tex]

[tex]1.5G + 7.5 = 16.5[/tex]

Solve for 1.5G

[tex]1.5G = 16.5 - 7.5[/tex]

[tex]1.5G = 9[/tex] --- This equation can be used to solve for Number of Games

Solving further

[tex]G = 9/1.5[/tex]

[tex]G = 6[/tex]

A rectangle's perimeter and area have the same value. The width of the rectangle is 6 units. What is the length of the rectangle in units?

Answers

Answer:

The length ot rectangle is 3 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for perimeter is P = 2l + 2w and the area is A = l×w. Assuming that the perimeter and area have the same values so you have to compare it :

[tex]perimeter = 2l + 2w[/tex]

[tex]area= l \times w[/tex]

[tex]perimeter = area[/tex]

[tex]2l + 2w = lw[/tex]

[tex]let \: w = 6[/tex]

[tex]2l + 2(6) = 6l[/tex]

[tex]2l + 12 = 6l[/tex]

[tex]12 = 6l - 2l[/tex]

[tex]4l = 12[/tex]

[tex]l = 3 \: units[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

  √13

Step-by-step explanation:

There's a formula called the distance formula that is based on the Pythagorean theorem. It is used to find the distance between points in 2 (or more) dimensions.

The distance (d) between points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is ...

  d = √((x2-x1)^2 +(y2-y1)^2)

___

To find the distance you're looking for, fill in the values in the formula and do the arithmetic.

  d = √((6-3)^2 +(5-7)^2) = √(3^2 +(-2)^2)

  d = √(9 +4)

  d = √13

The distance between the given points is √13.

6. - Laura es piloto comercial. Cada semana realiza cinco viajes de ida y vuelta entre Santiago de Cali y Cartagena. La distancia entre ambas ciudades es de 782 Km. Laura estima que en seis semanas recorre más de 40.000 Km, que es como dar la vuelta al mundo. ¿Tiene razón Laura?

Answers

Distance between city , D = 782 km.

Number of trips in a week , n = 5.

Total distance covered in a week , d = D × n = 782 × 5 = 3910 km.

Now, distance covered in six weeks is :

[tex]D'=d\times 6\\\\D'=3910\times 6\ km\\\\D'=23460\ km[/tex]

Therefore, her assumption of travelling 40,000 km in six week is wrong.

Hence, this is the required solution.

The area of the Pacific Ocean is about 6.0061 x 107 square miles. The area of the Southern Ocean is about 7.8483 x 106 square miles. Approximately how many times larger is the area of the Pacific Ocean than that of the Southern Ocean? A. 8 B. 9 C. 13 D. 20

Answers

Answer:

A. 8

Step-by-step explanation:

6.0061 x 10^7

/                        = 6/8 x 10^7/10^6

7.8483 x 10^6

0.75 x 10^7-6

0.75 x 10^1

A: 0.75 = 7.5 = 8.

The area of the Pacific Ocean is 8 times larger than the area of the Southern Ocean.

Option A is the correct answer.

What is approximation?

It is a result that is not exact, but close enough to be used.

We have,

Area of the Pacific Ocean:

= 6.0061 x [tex]10^{7}[/tex] square miles

Area of the Southern Ocean:

= 7.8483 x [tex]10^{6}[/tex] square miles

The area of the Pacific Ocean is larger than the area of the Southern Ocean by:

Area of the Southern ocean x M = Area of the Pacific Ocean

M = 6.0061 x [tex]10^{7}[/tex] / 7.8483 x [tex]10^{6}[/tex]

M = 7.7

Approximating we get,

M = 8.

Thus the area of the Pacific Ocean is 8 times larger than the area of the Southern Ocean.

Option A is the correct answer.

Answer:  -2x + 5y = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the lines must be parallel, the slopes must be the same, so keep the coefficients of x and y

Substitute the values of x and y from the given coordinate  (6,4) to find the new constant, b, the y-intercept.

-2x + 5y = b

-2(6) + 5(4) = b

-12 + 20 = b

8 = b

Rewrite the original equation substituting the new b for the original -15

Answer:

B.  41

Step-by-step explanation:

took the test and got it correct :)

The required measure of the angle BCA is 41°. Option B is correct.


Given,
ABCD is a parallelogram, where AC is the diagonal.
Angle ABC is 113°,  angle DCA is 26°, the measure of angle BCA is to be determined.

What is parallelogram?

A parallelogram is a quadrilateral consisting of pairs of parallel sides.

What is the triangle?

The triangle is a geometric shape that includes 3 sides and the sum of the interior angle should not be greater than 180°

Since angle DCA is 26°, angle CAB is also 26° because of an alternate interior angle of the parallelogram is equal.
So consider a triangle ABC, the sum of the interior angle of a triangle is 180,
∠CAB + ∠ABC + ∠BCA = 180°
26 + 113 + ∠BCA = 180
∠BCA  = 180 - 139
∠BCA  = 41°

Thus, the required measure of the angle BCA is 41°. Option B is correct.
