The Cowboys High School Band Boosters are selling candy bars and chips at the basketball tournament to raise money for their band competition. The candy bars sell for $1.00 and the chips sell for $0.50. They have 575 items ready to sell and expect to make $500 on the sale of all the items. How many candy bars do they have ready to sell?
Answer:
They have 425 candy bars ready to sell.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let,
x be the number of candy bars ready to sell
y be the number of chips ready to sell
According to given statement;
x+y=575 Eqn 1
x+0.5y= 500 Eqn 2
Subtracting Eqn 2 from Eqn 1
(x+y)-(x+0.5y)=575-500
x+y-x-0.5y=75
0.5y = 75
Dividing both sides by 0.5
[tex]\frac{0.5y}{0.5}=\frac{75}{0.5}\\y=150[/tex]
Putting y=150 in Eqn 1
x+150 = 575
x = 575-150
x = 425
Hence,
They have 425 candy bars ready to sell.

Answer:
-1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Formula to find slope is y2-y1/x2-x1
Chose one ordered pair to be the 2 and the other one to be the 1
I chose the 2nd one to be 2.
Plug in the y-value from the 2nd ordered pair to y2 because its the 2.
Plug in the x-value from the 2nd ordered pair to x2 because its the 2.
Now you have 0-y1/5-x1
Do the same thing but for the 1.
Plug in the y-value from the 1st ordered pair to y1 because its the 1.
Plug in the x-value from the 1st ordered pair to x1 because its the 1.
Now you have 0-5/5--5
In this situation, you have 2 minus signs.
2 minus = 1 positive.
Now you have 0-5/5+5
Simplify.
Now you have -5/10.
Simplify.
-1/2.
Hope this helps!
What is the solution to this equation?
Answer:
x = - [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
4x - 6 = 10x - 3 ( subtract 10x from both sides )
- 6x - 6 = - 3 ( add 6 to both sides )
- 6x = 3 ( divide both sides by - 6 )
x = [tex]\frac{3}{-6}[/tex] = - [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
Paige has scored 12 soccer goals after playing 5 games. How many games will it take for her to score 72 soccer goals?
Answer:
30
Step-by-step explanation:
12 is one sixth of 72. Therefore, she will need to play 6 times the number of games in order to score 72 goals. 5x6=30, so that is the answer

4.) 960 meters in 15 seconds
Write the following rate as a unit rate
Answer:
64
Step-by-step explanation:
960 divided by 15 is 64. The unit rate means one so you are trying to get it to 1 second so just do 15 divided by 15 which is 1, then 960 divided by 15 which is 64

if the parallel sides of a parallelogram are 2 cm apart and their sum is 10 cm then its area is
Answer:
10cm^2
Step-by-step explanation:
The parallel sides of a parallelogram is 2cm apart
Their sum is 10cm
Therefore the area can be calculated as follows
= 2 ×10/2
= 20/2
= 10 cm^2
Hence the area is 10cm^2
which is the correct graph for the equation?
Answer:
From the given graph, we can easily determine that graph A contains the y-intercept b = 3.
Thus, option A is the correct option.
The graph of the equation is also attached below.
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope-intercept form of the line equation
[tex]y = mx+b[/tex]
where
m is the slopeb is the y-interceptGiven the function
2x+5y=15
converting the equation into the slope-intercept form
5y = -2x + 15
divide both sides by 5
y = -2/5x + 3
Thus,
The slope of the line is: m = -2/5
The y-intercept of the line: b = 3
In other words, the ordered pair (0, 3) represents the y-intercept.
From the given graph, we can easily determine that graph A contains the y-intercept b = 3.
Thus, option A is the correct option.
The graph of the equation is also attached below.

use the quadratic formula to solve for x. 3x^2+9x+4=0
Answer:
x=−3/2 +1/6√33 or x=−3/2 + −1/6√33Step-by-step explanation:
Let's solve your equation step-by-step.
3x2+9x+4=0
For this equation: a=3, b=9, c=4
3x2+9x+4=0
Step 1: Use quadratic formula with a=3, b=9, c=4.
x=−b±√b2−4ac/2a
x=−(9)±√(9)2−4(3)(4)/2(3)
x=−9±√33/6
17 apples and 12 oranges cost $10.44. 3 apples and 4 oranges cost $2.84. How much does 1 orange cost?
Answer:
0.48$
Step-by-step explanation:
Cost of 1 Apple = A
Cost of 1 Orange = O
Six apples and three oranges cost $3.36 equivalent to:
6A + 3O = 3.36 (1st equation).
Two apples and five oranges cost $3.04 equivalent to:
2A + 5O = 3.04 (2nd equation).
Now we have to solve the 2 equations with 2 uknowns (the cost of 1 Apple = A, and the cost of 1 Orange = O).
6A + 3O = 3.36 (Equation 1)
2A + 5O = 3.04 (Equation 2), multiplying this equation by 3 we get:
6A + 3O = 3.36 (Equation 1)
6A + 15O = 9.12 (Equation 2), Now equation 2 minus equation 1 we get:
6A-6A +15O -3O = 9.12-3.36 equivalent to:
12O = 5.76 => O = 5.76/12 = 0.48 ( the cost of one Orange is 0.48$)
Go back to equation 1 and solve for the cost of 1 apple:
6A + 3x0.48 = 3.36 =>
6A + 1.44 = 3.36 =>
6A = 1.92 =>
A = 1.92/6 = 0.32 ( the cost of one apple is 0.32$)
Summary: The cost of one apple is 0.32$ and the cost of one orange is 0.48$.
Trevor has 3 2/5 pieces of cake left over. If she wants to split it between her and her 9 friends, how much will each
person get?
Answer:
17/50.
Step-by-step explanation:
If we convert 3 2/5 into an improper fraction, we get 17/5.
If you don't read the question carefully, it's easy to think that the answer would be 17/5 ÷ 9. However, this is wrong.
The question says "her AND her 9 friends," so there are 9+1=10 people total.
Thus, the answer would be
17/5 ÷ 10 = 17/5 * 1/10 = 17/50.

What is the solution for −40 = 10c?
A. c = 1
B. C = -1
C. c = -4
D. c = 4
Answer:
C. c = -4
Step-by-step explanation:
you must get c by itself. you have to divide both sides by 10. this gets rid of the 10c and keeps both sides equal
-40/10 = c
c = -4
