Each of 36 students at a school play bought either a cup of orange juice or a sandwich. A cup of orange juice costs $1 and a sandwich costs $3. The total amount collected was $76. How many students bought orange juice, and how many bought a sandwich?

Let represent the number of students who bought a cup of orange juice and represent the number of students who bought a sandwich. Then the problem can be represented by this system of equations:

+ 3 = 76
+ = 36

Answer the questions to solve the problem.

1. Explain what you should do with the two equations to eliminate one of the variables.

Answers

Answer 1

In order to eliminate one of the variables, subtract one of the equation from the other equation.

How to eliminate one of the variables?

Given these equations:

o + 3s = 76 equation 1

o + s = 36 equation 2

Where:

o = number of orange juice bought

s = number of sandwiches bought

In order to eliminate one of the variables, subtract equation 2 from equation 1. The result is :

2s = 40

s = 20

Bob- 8/9- 4/6 = 8/54-4/54= 4/54 = 2/27

Answers

Answer:

Jim:  2/9

Step-by-step explanation:

8/9-4/6

48/54-36/54          [Convert each fraction to a common denominator:  54

                              Multiply (8/9)*(6/6)=48/54;  Multiply (4/6)*(9/9) = 36/54]

 48/54-36/54 = 12/54

12/54 can be reduced to 2/9

Jim also has 2/9

Sue- 8/9-4/6=4/3 or 1 1/3:  Sue subtracted both the numerator and denominator.  This is not correct.

Jim- 8/6 - 4/6 = 48/54 - 36/54= 12/54 or 2/9:  Good Job Jim

Bob- 8/9- 4/6 = 8/54-4/54= 4/54 = 2/27:  Bob converted both denominators to 54, but did not multiply the numerators by the same numbers.  Bad Bob.

what is the volume of a triangular prisim if the length is 4cm heigght is 3cm and width is 11cm

Answers

Volume is a three-dimensional scalar quantity. The volume of the triangular prism is 66cm².

What is volume?

A volume is a scalar number that expresses the amount of three-dimensional space enclosed by a closed surface.

Given the length of the triangle is 4cm, while the width of the triangle is 11cm, therefore, the area of the base of the triangle will be,

Area of triangle = 0.5 × 4cm × 11cm

Area of triangle = 22 cm²

Now, the volume of the prism with a base area of 22cm² and a height of 3 cm is,

Volume of the triangular prism = 22cm² × 3cm = 66cm³

Hence, the volume of the triangular prism is 66cm².

x + 3y > –3 and y < One-halfx + 1?

Answers

The complete question is

"Which is the graph of the system x + 3y > –3 and y < One-halfx + 1?"

The solution is the intersection region of all the solutions in the system of inequalities.

What is inequality?

Inequality is defined as the relation which makes a non-equal comparison between two given functions.

We know that the lines are given as;

x + 3y = -3

y = 1/2 x + 1

Solving for "y" from the first line;

3y = -3 - x

y = -1 - x/3

For the line x + 3y = -3  the x-intercepts;

y = 0

y = -1 - x/3

0 = -1 - x/3

x/3 = -1

x = -3

And the y-intercept;

y = -1

For the line y = 1/2 x + 1 the x-intercepts;

y = 0

0= 1/2 x + 1

1/2x = -1

x = -2

And the y-intercept

x = 0

y = 1

Now we can graph both lines,

Mary is three times as old as her son. In 12 years, Mary's age will be one year less than her son's age. How old is each now?

Answers

Answer:

Son's Age: 11

Mary's Age: 33

Step-by-step explanation:

Let set Mary and her son as variables,

M = Mary's age

S  = Mary's son age

Breakdown:

"Mary is three times as old as her son"

M = 3S

"In 12 years, Mary's age will be one less than twice her son's age"

M + 12 = 2(S + 12) - 1

we add 12 to both sides as it will be in 12 years for both

We know that M = 3S, so we plug this in

3S + 12 = 2(S + 12) - 1

Now solve for S (son's age),

3S + 12 - 12 = 2(S + 12) - 1 - 12

3S = 2(S + 12) - 13

3S = 2S + 24 - 13

3S - 2S = 2S - 2S + 24 - 13

S = 24 - 13

S = 11

To find Mary age, plug in her son age ,

M = 3S

M = 3(11)

M = 33
