Caitlin makes candles and sells them in her online shop. Tall candles cost $8 each and short candles cost $5 each. last month, she sold a total of 91 candles and made $572.

how many tall candles did she sell?

how many short candles did she sell?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

tall candles = 39

Short candles = 52

Step-by-step explanation:

let tall candles be x

and short candles be y

No. Of candles sold = x + y =91

Money made from candles will be equal to = 8x + 5y = $572

These both are simultaneous linear equations.

x + y =91 ( multiply by 5)

5x + 5y = 455

8x + 5y = $572

Subtract them:

-3x = -117

x = -117/3

x = 39

put value of x in

x + y = 91

39 + y = 91

y = 91 - 39

y = 52

x shows tall candles so they are 39

y shows short candles so they are 52

Jarvis a 41-year old male, bought a $115,000, 20yr life insurance policy thru his employer. Jarvis is paid weekly. How much is deducted from each of his paychecks for life insurance?

Answers

Answer: $30.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount of insurance policy bought = $115,000

Number of years for the life insurance = 20 years.

From the chart, the Annual premium per $1000 of coverage for 20 years for a male of 40-44 years is $13.68. Therefore, the annual premium will be:

= (115,000 / 1,000) × $13.68

= 115 × $13.68 =

= $1,573.20

Note that 52 weeks make a year. Therefore, the weekly deductions will be:

= $1,573.20 / 52

= $30.25

Therefore, the correct option is D.

Mike went to a football game with his family. They bought 5 boxes of popcorn and 3 programs, and spent $41. Sean's family went to the same game, bought 3 boxes of popcorn and 2 programs, and spent $26. How much does each program cost at the game?

Answers

Answer:

$7

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the price of a box of popcorn = b and the price of a program = p

we can make 2 equations:

5b+3p = 41 and 3b+2p=26

We can use the subtraction method be able to eliminate one of the variables and isolate the other one - to do it I will equalize the 'b' in both equations by multiplying by 5 and 3 respectively

5(3b+2p=26)

-3(5b+3p = 41)

15b+10p=130

-(15b+9p=123)

p=7 (therefore the answer is 7$)

What is the lateral area of the regular pyramid if the area of the square base is 36 square cm and the slant height is 12 cm? options: 168 144 72 298

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The area of the square base, A = 36 cm²

Slant height, s = 12 cm

We need to find the lateral area of the regular pyramid. The formula is :

[tex]S=A+\dfrac{1}{2}p\times s[/tex]

Where

A is the area of base

p is perimeter of base

s is slant height

Area of square, A = side²

So,

[tex]side=6\ cm[/tex]

Put values in the above formula.

[tex]S=36+\dfrac{1}{2}\times 4\times 6\times 12\\\\=36+144\\\\=180[/tex]

So, the lateral area of the regular pyramid is equal to 180 cm².

A swim instructor would like to test the effect of a new swim technique versus the standard technique for a group of 25 competitive swimmers.

The swim instructor divides the students by class (junior or senior), and then randomly allocates half of the 14 juniors and 5 of the 11 seniors to receive instruction on the new technique.

During swim practice, the instructor times the juniors as they race against each other to see if those who learned the new technique outperform their peers. The instructor does the same for the seniors.

At the end of practice, the instructor compares the average swim time for both juniors and seniors among those who did and did not use the new technique.

A) The instructor should place the 25 student names on slips of paper and place them in a hat. Twelve of the slips should be drawn out and those students should receive the instruction on the new technique.

B) The instructor should place the names of the 14 juniors on slips of paper and place them in one hat. The 11 seniors’ names should be placed on slips of paper and placed into a separate hat. The instructor should randomly select 7 juniors and 5 seniors to receive instruction on the new technique.

C) For each student, the instructor should flip a coin. If the coin lands on heads, the student will receive instruction on the new technique. If the coin lands on tails, the student will not receive instruction on the new technique.

D) The students should line up alphabetically and count off by 2s. Every student who gets a 1 will receive instruction on the new technique. Every student who gets a 2 will not receive instruction on the new technique.
