Consuelo is buying flavored coffee and plain coffee. The total amount of money she spends on coffee is T = 5.50p + 7f, where "p" represents the cost of a package of plain coffee and "f" represents the cost of a package of flavored coffee.
a. If Consuelo has $40 to spend on coffee, describe the constraints on the formula.
b. Solve for f.
c. If Consuelo needs to buy 3 packages of plain coffee, what is the maximum number of packages of flavored coffee she can buy?

Answers

Answer 1

A linear equation can have one or more variables.

The constraints on the formula are the costs of plain coffee and cost of flavored coffeeThe equation of f is: [tex]\mathbf{f = \frac{40 -5.50p}7 }[/tex].The maximum number of packages of flavored coffee she can buy is 3

The function is given as:

[tex]\mathbf{T = 5.50p + 7f}[/tex]

(a) The constraints when T = 40

Substitute 40 for T in [tex]\mathbf{T = 5.50p + 7f}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{5.50p + 7f = 40}[/tex]

The variables in the above equation are p and f

Hence, the constraints are the cost of a package of plain coffee and the cost of a package of flavored coffee

(b) Solve for f

In (a), we have:

[tex]\mathbf{5.50p + 7f = 40}[/tex]

Subtract both sides by 5.50p

[tex]\mathbf{7f = 40 -5.50p }[/tex]

Divide both sides by 7

[tex]\mathbf{f = \frac{40 -5.50p}7 }[/tex]

Hence, the equation of f is:

[tex]\mathbf{f = \frac{40 -5.50p}7 }[/tex]

(c) The maximum number of flavored coffee when she buys 3 packages of plain coffee

In (b), we have:

[tex]\mathbf{f = \frac{40 -5.50p}7 }[/tex]

Substitute 3 for p

[tex]\mathbf{f = \frac{40 -5.50 \times 3}7 }[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{f = \frac{40 -16.50}7 }[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{f = \frac{23.5}7 }[/tex]

Divide

[tex]\mathbf{f = 3.36 }[/tex]

Remove the decimal part (do not approximate)

[tex]\mathbf{f = 3 }[/tex]

Hence, the maximum number of packages of flavored coffee she can buy is 3

Answer:

-2/3 + 1/3 = -1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

using addition to solve a fraction with the same base

step 1: take the denominator of both fractions and clear them from the equation

ex: -2/3 + 1/3 = ?   (-2 + 1 = ?)

step 2: solve the new equation -2 + 1 to get your answer of

ex: -2 + 1 = ?   (-2 + 1 = -1)

step 3: since both denominators of the fractions have the same number then our answer will also have a denominator of 3 giving us the answer to the problem -2/3 + 1/3 = ? is -1/3

Bert made 3 batches of his uncle's signature spicy wing sauce for a barbecue last weekend.
He didn't want the sauce to be too spicy, so he tweaked the recipe, reducing the amount of
hot sauce he put in each batch by 2 ounces. Bert used 24 ounces of hot sauce in all to make
the wing sauce.
Which equation can you use to find u, the amount of hot sauce Bert's uncle usually puts in
each batch of spicy wing sauce?
3(u - 2) - 24
2(0 - 3) - = 24
3u - 2 = 24
2u - 3 = 24
How much hot sauce does Bert's uncle usually put in each batch of spicy wing sauce?
Write your answer as a whole number or a simplified fraction.
ounces

Answers

Algebraic equations are equations that have coefficients and unknown variables in them.

The equation to show how many ounces of spicy sauce Bert's uncle usually put in is given as: 3(u - 2) = 24

The amount of hot sauce  Bert's uncle usually puts in each batch of spicy wing sauce is 10 ounces.

a) We are told in the question that Bert made 3 batches of his uncle's spicy sauce. He reduced the amount of hot sauce and used 2 ounces in each batch. He used 24 ounces of hot sauce in all to make the wing sauce.

Let's represent each ounce of hot sauce as u

Hence, the equation to show how many ounces of spicy sauce Bert's uncle usual put in is given as:

3(u - 2) = 24

b) How much hot sauce does Bert's uncle usually put in each batch of spicy wing sauce?

The amount of hot sauce Bert's uncle puts in the spicy wing sauce

3(u - 2) = 24

3u - 6 = 24

Collect like terms

3u = 24 + 6

3u = 30

Divide both sides by 3

u = 30/3

u = 10

Bert's uncle puts 10 ounces of hot sauce in the spicy wing sauce.

Find the exterior angle

Answers

Answer:

x = 128 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

So we know that a triangle's interior angles should add up to 180 degrees.

We also know that when a triangle has that little square in a corner, that corner is equal to 90 degrees.

With these clues, we can figure out that the last interior angle is equal to:

180 - (38+90) = 52, however this isn't the answer we are looking for.

We also know that a straight line is 180 degrees. Therefore, to find the exterior angle we just subtract the interior angle from 180 degrees:

180 - 52 = 128

x = 128

In ΔQRS, q = 9.4 cm, r = 8 cm and ∠S=151°. Find ∠Q, to the nearest 10th of a degree.

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  15.7°

Step-by-step explanation:

The law of cosines can be used to find side s:

  s² = r² +q² -2rq·cos(S)

  s² = 8² +9.4² -2(8)(9.4)·cos(151°) ≈ 283.903

  s ≈ 16.849

Then the law of sines can be used to find angle Q.

  sin(Q)/q = sin(S)/s

  sin(Q) = (q/s)sin(S)

  Q = arcsin(q/s·sin(S)) = arcsin(9.4/16.849·sin(151°)) ≈ 15.692°

Angle Q is about 15.7°.
