BEST ANSWER GETS BRAINLIEST!!!!
A store is having a sale on trail mix and jelly beans. For 3 pounds of trail mix and 8 pounds of jelly beans, the total cost is $31. For 5 pounds of trail mix and pounds of 2 jelly beans, the total cost is 12. Find the cost for each pound of trail mix and each pound of jelly beans.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

trail mix costs 1.00 per pound

jelly beans costs 3.50 per pound

Step-by-step explanation:

t = cost of trail mix

b = cost of jelly beans

3t+8b = 31

5t+2b = 12

Multiply the second equation by -4

-4(5t+2b = 12)

-20t+-8b = -48

Add this to the first equation

3t+8b = 31

-20t+-8b = -48

-------------------------

-17t = -17

Divide by -17

t = 1

Now we can find b

3t+8b = 21

3(1) +8b = 31

3+8b =31

Subtract 3

8b = 31-3

8b = 28

Divide by 8

b = 28/8

b = 7/3

b = 3.50

Answer 2

Let trail mix be x and jelly beans be y

The equations are

3x+8y=31-(1)5x+2y=12-(2)

Multiplying (1) by 1 and (2) by 4

3x+8y=31---(3)20x+8y=48--(4)

Subtracting

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto -17x=-17[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto x=1[/tex]

Putting in eq(2)

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto 5(1)+2y=12[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto 2y=7[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto y=7/2[/tex]

Hi there friend, your answer for perimeter is 18.

I’ve included a graph below to help explain why but basically if you count the squares, each side measures 4 1/2 units so if you multiply 4 1/2 units by 4(the number of sides) you get 18.

You are in charge of financial services and must calculate overtime pay for employees in your division. Due to a heavy workload, an employee had to do 35 hours of overtime in two weeks. Seven of these hours are at "double time" (i.e. twice usual pay), the rest are at "time-and-a-half". The employee's usual pay is $375 a week at $10 an hour. How much overtime money should the employee be paid for the two week period?

Answers

Answer:

$2,100

Step-by-step explanation:

'regular' pay is 375/10 or $37.50 per hour

'time-and-a-half' would be 37.50 + 18.75 = $56.25 per hour

'double time' would be (2)37.50 = $75.00

35 hours in 2 weeks and 7 hours at 'double time' and 28 at 'time-and-a-half'

so:

(7)75 + (28)56.25 = 525 + 1575

Total overtime pay for 2-week period is $2,100

WHAT IS THE EQUATION IN SLOPE INTERCEPT FORM FOT THE LINE THAT PASSES THROUGH THE POINTS (2,-2) AND (-3,-17)

Answers

Answer:

y = 3x - 8

Step-by-step explanation:

to find slope the equation (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1) is used

this means change of y over change of x

[-17 - (-2)] / (-3 - 2)

(-17 + 2) / -5

-15 / -5 = 3

the slope is 3

to find slope intercept form you must find the y intercept

using y = 3x + b and plugging things in we can find it

we can plug in the first point

-2 = 2(3) + b

b is your y intercept

-2 = 6 + b

b = -8

Answer:

y = 3/1x - 8

steps:

(2,-2) (-3, -17)

x1. y1. x2. y2

y2-y1

x2-x1

-17 - -2 = -15. = 3

-3-2. -5. 1

(2,-2)

y= mx + b

-2 = 3/1(2) + b

-2 = 6 + b

-6 -6

-8 = b

y = 3/1x - 8

Solve for x
5(x+8)=2x−7+8(x−1)

Answers

Answer:

x = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

5(x+8) = 2x - 7 + 8 (x - 1)

5x + 40 = 2x - 7 + 8x - 8

5x + 40 = 2x + 8x - 7 - 8

5x + 40 = 10x - 15

40 + 15 = 10x - 5x

55 = 5x

5x = 55

x = 55/5

x = 11

x=11

Step-by-step explanation:

5x+40=2x-7+8x-8

5x+40=10x-15

10x-5x=40+15

5x=55

x=55/5

x=11

Question 3 What is the equation of the parabola that opens up, has a vertex V(5,0), and a y-intercept of 50?​

Answers

Answer:

y=2(x-5)^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Vertex form:

y=a(x-p)^2+q

(p,q) = (5,0)

y=a(x-5)^2

y-intercept has coordinates (0,50) so, substitute x=0 and y= 50 in the above equation to find "a"

50=a(0-5)^2

50=25a

a=2

Answer:

first and fourth

Step-by-step explanation:

Equate and compare both sides of the equations. If both sides are equal then the equation is true.

48 ÷ 8 + 2³ = 6 + 8 = 14

right side = 5 + 3² = 5 + 9 = 14

This is a true equation

---------------------------------------

9² - 7² = 81 - 49 = 32

right side = 20 ÷ (7 - 2) = 20 ÷ 5 = 4

This is not a true equation

---------------------------------------

[tex]\frac{150}{5^2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{150}{25}[/tex] = 6

right side = 30 - 4² - 12 = 30 - 16 - 12 = 14 - 12 = 2

This is not a true equation

--------------------------------------------------

[tex]\frac{8(7)}{2}[/tex] - 12 = [tex]\frac{56}{2}[/tex] - 12 = 28 - 12 = 16

right side = 22 - 2 × 3 = 22 - 6 = 16

This is a true equation
