At a cake stall , muffins cost $2 each & cookies cost $1 each. The cake stall earned $146. If 2 more cookies than muffins were sold, how many muffins were sold?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

48 muffins were sold

Step-by-step explanation:

Represent the number of muffins by m and the number of cookies by c.

Then the revenue from the sales of muffins was ($2/muffin)m and that from the sales of cookies ($1/cookie)c.  Remembering that c = m + 2, we obtain the following equation:

($2/muffin)m +  ($1/cookie)(m + 2) = $146, so that:

2m + 1m + 2 = 146, or 3m + 2 = 146, or 3m = 144.

Dividing both sides of this result by 3, we get m = 48

Thus, 48 muffins were sold.

In a football tournament, each team plays exactly 19 games.
Teams get 3 points for every win and 1 point for every tie.
At the end of the tournament, team Olympus got a total of 28 points.
From the following options, how many times could team Olympus have tied?

Answers

Answer:16  ties

Step-by-step explanation:

there is 19 games if they tied 16 then that 16 points so 28 - 16= 12  

then 4 games left so 4 times 3 is 12

At the end of the tournament, team Olympus have tied for 13,10,7,4,1 times

What is inequality?

A statement of an order relationship—greater than, greater than or equal to, less than, or less than or equal to—between two numbers or algebraic expressions.

According to question

In a football tournament, each team plays exactly 19 games.

Points for every win (w) = 3

Points for every tie (t)= 1

Points for every loose = 0

Olympus got a total of 28 points

i.e  3w + t = 28 ---------(1)

And each team plays  19 games

T + W  ≤  19 --------------(2)

and T , W ≥ 0

from equation (1) and (2)

=> 2W  ≥  9

=> W ≥ 4.5  

( match can be won in integers only )

=> W  ≥  5  

W       T        Loose

5        13           1

6        10           3

7         7            5

8         4            7

9          1            9    

Hence, Olympus have tied for 13,10,7,4,1 times

√101(10.0498756)

9.92749...

0.99853...

Step-by-step explanation:

For 10π, we can simplify π into 3.14 for an approximate amount. 3.14*10=31.4

For the square root of ten, we can estimate it's between 10 and 11 since 10 squared is 100 and 11 squared is 121.

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we have to put the expressions into numbers. For the square root of 101, it doesn't divide evenly into any whole number. We do know that 10^2 is 100, and 11^2 is 121. That means the square root of 101 is between 10 and 11. Pi is equal to 3.14, so we just multiply 10 by 3.14. If we do this, we get 31.4. From here we can rank the numbers in order from greatest to smallest.

31.4 (10pi) is greater than

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-intercept equation format:

y = mx + b

m = slope/ gradient/ constant of variation/ rate of change

b = y-intercept

To find the slope, use the formula:

[tex]\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

Find  two random points:

1 - (0.5, 40) , 2 - (1, 60)

Solve:

[tex]\frac{20}{0.5}[/tex]

Divide:

[tex]\frac{1}{40}[/tex]

The y-intercept is when the x-coordinate is equal to 0.

The y-intercept is always the beginning.

So observing the graph, the first point is (0, 20)

The x-coordinate is 0.

Y intercept = 20.

Plug in both slope and y-intercept:

B) Suppose DB = 18 ft, AB = 3 ft, and CB = 10 ft. Find the lengt of CE. Show all your work.

Answers

Given the following parameters DB = 18 ft, AB = 3 ft, and CB = 10 ft. Therefore, The length of the CE is 4.6 ft.

What is Secant-secant rule?

The secant-secant rule states that if two secants are drawn from an external point to a circle, then the product of the measures of one secant's external part and that entire secant is equal to the product of the measures of the other secant's external part and that entire secant.

Mathematically:

(BA + AD)BA = (BE + EC)BE

Given the following parameters

DB = 18 ft, AB = 3 ft, and CB = 10 ft.

Substitute to check if we can find CE

(BA + AD)BA = (BE + CE)BE

(3+ 15) x 3 = (10 + CE ) x 10

18 x 3 = 100 + 10CE

54 = 100 + 10CE

CE = 4.6

Therefore, The length of the CE is 4.6 ft.

Answers

The calculation of the interest based on the price given shows that vehicle B has a lower interest.

How to calculate the price?

From the information given, vehicle A has a final sale price of $25,000 at 5% interest and financing up to 60 months. The interest will be:

= (25000 × 5 × 5)/100

= $6250

Vehicle B has a final sale price of $29,000 at 4% interest and financing up to 60 months. The interest will be:

= (29000 × 4 × 5)/100

= $5800

Therefore, the calculation of the interest based on the price given shows that vehicle B has a lower interest.

What is a function?

A function can be defined as a mathematical expression that defines and represents the relationship that exists between two or more variable of a data set.

In order to determine the height of a woman whose femur (f) measures 49 centimeters, we would substitute this numerical value into the first function as follows:

G(f) = 2.57f + 47.22

G(49) = 2.57(49) + 47.22

a car can travel 340 km with 17 litres of petrol. how much can I travel with 20 litres of petrol?​

Answers

The car would travel a distance of 400 km using 20 litres of petrol

How to determine the distance travelled?

The given parameters can be represented using the following scale ratio :

Scale = 340 km : 17 litres

For 20 litres of petrol, we have:

Distance : 20 = 340 km : 17

Express as fraction

Distance/20 = 340 km/17

Multiply both sides by 20

Distance = 400 km

Hence, the car would travel a distance of 400 km using 20 litres of petrol

The number of real zeros of the function f(x) = x3 + 4x2 + x − 6 is 3

How to determine the number of real zeros?

The equation of the function is given as:

f(x) = x^3 + 4x^2 + x - 6

Expand the function

f(x) = x^3 + 5x^2 - x^2 + 6x - 5x - 6

Reorder the terms of the function

f(x) = x^3 + 5x^2 + 6x - x^2 - 5x - 6

Factor the expression

f(x) = x(x^2 + 5x + 6) -1(x^2 + 5x + 6)

Factor out x -1

f(x) = (x^2 + 5x + 6)(x -1)

Expand

f(x) = (x^2 + 3x + 2x + 6)(x -1)

Factorize

f(x) = [x(x + 3) + 2(x + 3)](x - 1)

Factor out x + 2

f(x) = (x + 3)(x + 2)(x- 1)
