Pregunta correcta completa
Un cliente de un supermercado ha pagado un total de 240 por 16 litros de leche,4kg de hamon serrano y 8 litros de aceite de oliva. Sabiendo que 1 litro de aceite cuesta el tripe de 1 litro de leche; que 1kg de jamon cuesta igual que el cliente tendria que pagar si hubiera comprado 5 litros de leche y 3 litros de aceite de oliva. Calcule el precio de cada artículo.
Solución
Deje que el precio de un litro de leche, un kilogramo de jamón serrano y un litro de aceite de oliva sea x, y y z respectivamente.
16 litros de leche, 4 kg de hamon serrano y 8 litros de aceite de oliva cuestan 240
16x + 4y + 8z = 240 (ecuación 1)
1 litro de aceite cuesta el triple de 1 litro de leche
z = 3x (ecuación 2)
Y ese 1 kg de jamón cuesta lo mismo que el cliente tendría que pagar si hubiera comprado 5 litros de leche y 3 litros de aceite de oliva.
y = 5x + 3z (ecuación 3)
Sustituyendo las ecuaciones 2 y 3 en la ecuación 1
16x + 4(5x + 3z) + 8(3x) = 240
16x + 20x + 12z + 24x = 240
Recordemos que z = 3x
36x + 12(3x) + 24x = 240
36x + 36x + 24x = 240
96x = 240
x = (240/96) = 2.5
z = 3x = 3 × 2.5 = 7.5
y = 5x + 3z = (5×2.5) + (3×7.5) = 35
English Translation
A supermarket customer has paid a total of 240 for 16 liters of milk, 4kg of hamon serrano and 8 liters of olive oil. Knowing that 1 liter of oil costs the tripe of 1 liter of milk; t that 1kg of ham costs the same as the customer would have to pay if he had bought 5 liters of milk and 3 liters of olive oil. Calculate the price of each item.
Solution
Let the price of a liter of milk, a kilogram of Serrano ham and a liter of olive oil be x, y and z respectively.
16 liters of milk, 4kg of hamon serrano and 8 liters of olive oil cost 240
16x + 4y + 8z = 240 (eqn 1)
1 liter of oil costs the triple of 1 liter of milk
z = 3x (eqn 2)
And that 1kg of ham costs the same as the customer would have to pay if he had bought 5 liters of milk and 3 liters of olive oil
y = 5x + 3z (eqn 3)
Substituting eqn 2 and 3 into eqn 1
16x + 4(5x + 3z) + 8(3x) = 240
16x + 20x + 12z + 24x = 240
Recall that z = 3x
36x + 12(3x) + 24x = 240
36x + 36x + 24x = 240
96x = 240
x = (240/96) = 2.5
z = 3x = 3 × 2.5 = 7.5
y = 5x + 3z = (5×2.5) + (3×7.5) = 35
1 liter of milk costs 2.5
1 kg of Serrano ham costs 35
1 liter of olive oil costs 7.5

Step-by-step explanation:
Michael just drank a cup of coffee to help him stay awake. The coffee had 110 milligrams of caffeine in it. If his body
processes 5% of the caffeine every hour, how much will be left in 8 hours?
The body uses 5%, so 95% of the previous amount is left every hour:
Total = start value x (1- %)^time
Total = 110 x(0.95)^8
Total left = 72.9762 milligrams

4. Nine fruit juice bottles contain 4 1/2 litres of fruit juice between them.
How much juice do five bottles hold?
[tex]4 \frac{1}{2} litres[/tex]
Answer:
2[tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] litres or 2.5 litres
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question, 9 fruit juice bottles contain 4[tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] litres of fruit juice. Therefore, to find how many litres of fruit juice would be contained in 5 fruit juice bottles, you multiply 5 by 4[tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] litres and you divide the product by 9.
i.e. Let the quantity of the fruit juice for 5 bottles be x.
9 juice bottles ===> 4[tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] litres
5 juice bottles ===> x
∴x = [tex]\frac{5 * 4\frac{1}{2} }{9} litres[/tex]
x = [tex]\frac{5 * 4.5}{9} litres[/tex]
x = [tex]\frac{22.5}{9} litres[/tex]
x = 2.5 litres or 2[tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] litres

Answer:
The answer is number three
Step-by-step explanation:
I know this because the formula for pythageon theorm is. (A)squared + (B)squared = (C)squared so if you substitude the value of number three into the therom it would be equal to this 6x6+8x8=10x10
then if you simplify it would equal 36 + 64 = 100 and so this would satisfy the therom.

Part 3. Identify the X intercepts for
y = (x+4)^2-9
Answer:
x = -1 or x = -7
Step-by-step explanation:
y = (x + 4)^2 - 9
To find x-intercept, set y = 0
=> (x + 4)^2 - 9 = 0
=> ( x + 1)( x + 7) = 0
=> x = -1 or x = -7
To find the x intercepts, plug in y = 0 and solve for x
y = (x+4)^2 - 9
0 = (x+4)^2 - 9 ... replace y with 0
9 = (x+4)^2
(x+4)^2 = 9
x+4 = plus/minus sqrt(9)
x+4 = sqrt(9) or x+4 = -sqrt(9)
x+4 = 3 or x+4 = -3
x = 3-4 or x = -3-4
x = -1 or x = -7 You have the correct answers. Nice work.-----------------------------------------------------------------
Checking each answer:
Plug x = -1 into the original equation. You should get y = 0 as a result
y = (x+4)^2 - 9
y = (-1+4)^2 - 9
y = (3)^2 - 9
y = 9-9
y = 0 .... so this confirms x = -1 as a solution
The same should apply for the other potential solution x = -7
y = (x+4)^2 - 9
y = (-7+4)^2 - 9
y = (-3)^2 - 9
y = 9-9
y = 0 .... this confirms x = -7 as well

Step-by-step explanation:
Probability of boys who do play = 1593/2451 = 0.6499 or 64.99% (if you times by 100 to change to percentage)
Probability of boys who do not play =858/2451 = 0.35 or 35%
Probability of girls who do play = 1361/2996 = 0.4542 or 45.42%
Probability of girls who do not play = 1635/2996 = 0.5457 or 54.57%
Probability of boys and girls who play = 2954/5447 = 0.5423 or 54.23%
Probability of boys and girls who do not play = 2493/5447 =0.4577 or 45.77%
you can see the correct statement is
Probability of girls who do play = 1361/2996 = 0.4542 or 45.42%
total number of girls is 2996 and we found out almost 54% do not play and almost 45% play

The distance between Joshua's home and school is 800 m. Joshua takes 5 min to walk
the first 100 m to a Convenient Store nearby. He would spend 10 min in the store to
complete his purchase. Finally, he takes another 20 min to reach school. What is his
average speed in m/s?
Answer:
= 0.38 m/s
Step-by-step explanation:
▪Total distance = 800 m
5 min = 100 m
▪Remaining distance = 800 - 100 = 700 m
20 min = 700 m
▪Total time taken = 20 + 10 + 5 = 35 min
If 1 min = 60 sec
What about 35 min = ?
= 35 x 60
= 2100 sec
▪Average speed = TD ÷ TT
= 800 ÷ 2100
= 0.38 m/s
Find the slope and y-intercept of the line through the pair of points L(-9,6),M(-1,9)
Answer:
The slope is 3/8
The y intercept is 75/8
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope is found by
m= (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
= (9-6)/(-1- -9)
= (9-6)/(-1+9)
=3/8
The y intercept is found by
y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept
y = 3/8 x+b
9 = 3/8(-1) +b
Getting a common denominator
72/8 = -3/8 +b
Add 3/8 to each side
75/8 = b
The y intercept is 75/8
Answer:
3/8, 9 3/8
Step-by-step explanation:
y= mx+b
m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
L (-9, 6) and M(-1, 9)
slope is:
m= (9-6)/(-1+9)= 3/8y- intercept is:
6=3/8*(-9)+bb= 6+27/8= (48+27)/8= 75/8= 9 3/8What is the greatest decimal place value?

Answer:
g(n) = - 19 + (n - 1)*6
Step-by-step explanation:
The way to do this is to try a couple and then see if you can make some sort of equation that follows the rule.
g(1) = - 19
=============
g(2) = g(2 - 1) + 6
g(2) = g(1) + 6
g(2) = -19 + 6
g(2) = -13
=============
g(3) = g(2) + 6
g(3) = -13 + 6
g(3) = - 7
==========
g(4) = g(3) + 6
g(4) = - 7 + 6
g(4) = - 1
==========
g(5) = 5
g(6) =11
===========
Now the hard part. You have to start with - 19
The nth term is g(n) = - 19 + (n - 1)*6
Now see if it works.
g(7) = - 19 + (7 - 1)*6
g(7) = - 19 + 6 * 6
g(7) = -19 + 36
g(7) = 17
Is that correct?
g(7) = g(n - 1) + 6
g(7) = g(6) + 6
g(7) = 11 + 6
g(7) = 17 Seems to be the same as the explicit formula gives.
6. Suppose you bought supplies for a party. Three rolls of streamers and 15 balloons
cost $30. Later, you bought 2 rolls of streamers and 4 balloons for $11. How much did
each roll of streamers cost? How much did each balloon cost?
Answer:
Streamers are $2.50 each
Balloons are $1.50 each
Step-by-step explanation:
Make a system of equations
3s + 15b = 30
2s + 4b = 11
Solve by elimination: multiply the top equation by 2 and the bottom equation by -3.
6s + 30b = 60
-6s -12b = -33
18b = 27
b = 1.5
Plug in 1.5 as b to find s
3s + 15(1.5) = 30
3s +22.5 = 30
3s = 7.5
s = 2.5
The streamers are $2.50 and the balloons are $1.50
