On a​ team, 4 girls and 3 boys scored a total of 57 points. The difference between the number of points scored by the 4 girls and the number of points scored by the 3 boys is 15. Each girl scored the same number of points and each boy scored the same number of points. Find the number of points scored by each girl and each boy.

Each girl scored (BLANK) points.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Each girl scores 8 points while each boy scores 4 points

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of point scored by the 7 girls and 2 boys be x and y respectively.

Thus, since 7 girls and 2 boys scored a total of 64 points, then;

7x + 2y = 64 - - - (1)

Also, difference between the number of points scored by the 7 girls and the number of points scored by the 2 boys is 48. Thus;

7x - 2y = 48 - - - (2)

Add eq(1) to (eq 2) to get;

14x = 64 + 48

14x = 112

x = 112/14

x = 8

Put 8 for x in eq(1) to get;

7(8) + 2y = 64

56 + 2y = 64

2y = 64 - 56

2y = 8

y = 8/2

y = 4

Thus,each girl scores 8 points while each boy scores 4 points

Answers

Answer:

9 is the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

=> 10x - 40 = 4x + 14

=> 6x = 54

=> x = 9

Therefore, 9 is the answer.

What are Linear Equations?

Linear equations are equation involving one or more expressions including variables and constants and the variables are having no exponents or the exponent of the variable is 1.

Given linear equation,

5 (x - 4) 2 = 4x + 14

5 × 2 (x - 4) = 4x + 14

10 (x - 4) = 4x + 14

By distributive property, p (q + r) = p q + p r

10x - (10 × 4) = 4x + 14

10x - 40 = 4x + 14

10x - 4x = 14 + 40

6x = 54

x = 54 / 6

x = 9

Hence the value of x is 9.

At a bowling alley, the cost of shoe rental is $2.75 and the cost per game is $4.75. If f (n) represents the total cost of shoe rental and n games, what is the recursive equation for f (n)?

f (n) = 2.75 + 4.75 + f (n − 1), f (0) = 2.75
f (n) = 4.75 + f (n − 1), f (0) = 2.75
f (n) = 2.75 + 4.75n, n > 0
f (n) = (2.75 + 4.75)n, n > 0

Answers

The recursive equation for f(n) will be:

f(n) = 2.75 + 4.75n, n > 0

The cost of the shoe rental = $2.75

The cost of 1 game = $2.75

The cost if n games = 4.75n

The total cost of shoe rental and n games = Cost of the shoe rental + cost of n games

Let the total cost of shoe rental and n games be f(n)

f(n) = 2.75 + 4.75n

Since at least 1 game will be played,

the recursive equation for f(n) will be:

f(n) = 2.75 + 4.75n, n > 0

Using the slope formula, find the slope of the line through the points (0,0) and (4,8).
Use pencil and paper. Explain how you can use mental math to find the slope of the line. (please show how to do on pencil and paper)

Answers

Answer:

[tex]m = 2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Using mental math to find the slope of the line:

If you think about the formula, then you set up the points in your head, you will notice that the first point is on top of the second point. And that way makes it easy to simplify. All you would need to do is subtract down in your head: For example:

(0, 0)

(4, 8)

As you can see, the first point is on top of the other, and that way you can just subtract from bottom to top. If you do it that way, it is set up (Remember, you would do this all in your head)

At the movie theatre, child admission is $5.50 and adult admission is $8.90. On Friday four times as many adults tickets as child tickets were sold, for a total sales of $986.40. How many child tickets were sold that day?

Answers

Answer:

You can use grouping, quantity and value to solve this question.

Child admission = $5.50

Adult admission = $8.90

Friday sales (Quantity):

Child = x

Adult = 4x

Total sales = 5x

Friday sales (Value):

Child = $5.50

Adult = 4 × $8.90

         = $35.60

Total sales = $986.40

1 group = $5.50 + $35.60

            = $41.10

Number of groups = $986.40 ÷ $41.10

                               = 24

The number of child tickets sold is 24.

What is the perimeter of the triangle?

Answers

Answer:

34

Step-by-step explanation:

12 on two of the sides and 10 on bottom

There is a problem with the question since it is supposed to say how much length does each box in the graph consider. But assuming that each box length is 1 unit...

The pythagorean formula states a^2 + b^2 equals c^2 .... Pythagorean theorem states that the sum of the squares on the legs of a right triangle is equal to the square on the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle)

So, lets just divide the blue triangle in half, symmetrically so that we can get a 90 degree angle. "a" is height of the half triangle and "b" is base of the half triangle so we have to find "c" (the hypotenuse) Now that we already can count and find the value of a is 12 unit and b is 5 unit.

So, 12^2 + 5^2 equals c^2 ... now if we solve the formula, the value of "c" comes 13 (it also comes -13 but negative number can not be counted in the diagram)

The triangle is a isoceles triangle which means both the sides of "c" are equal so... one side is 13 then the other side is also 13. and we already know the base is 10 units. So just add them up-   13+13+11 comes 37 units. (Its kinda complicated and i am bad at making someone understand so just learn the pythagorean theorum...)

SO THE FINAL ANSWER IS 37 UNITS. i am not sure so let me know if am correct. And if i m wrong... pls forgive me T-T

6. (5 points) Graph using two intercepts; show your work in finding the intercepts. 6x - 3y = 18

Answers

Answer:

Divide both sides by 18. The new coefficients will be the reciprocals of the intercepts:

[tex]6x-3y=18 \rightarrow \frac6{18}x - \frac3{18}y = 1 \rightarrow \frac x3-\frac y6 =1[/tex] The two intercepts are then 3 and -6.

(I know, dividing by 3 both sides of the equations would have made the whole process way easier).

Alternatively, plug x = 0 to find the y intercept and y=0 to find the x intercept. Either way the graph will look something like the one I'm sketching on paint.

Two cards are drawn from a well-shuffled deck of 52 playing cards. Let X denote the number of aces drawn. Find P(X = 1).

Answers

Answer:

0.14479638

Step-by-step explanation:

Because 2 cards out of 52 are drawn without replacement, hypergeometric probability distribution should be used. Hence,

Combination of drawing 1 ace of 4 total aces C(4,1)

Combination of drawing 1 non-ace of 48 total non aces C(48,1)

Combination of drawing 2 cards of total 52 cards C(52.2)

C(4,1) = 4, C(48,1) = 48, C(52,2) = 1326

4*48/1326 = 0.14479638
