The local humane society is restocking on cat food to prepare for kitten season. Very young kittens need kitten formula which costs $4.00 per bottle. Older kittens need wet cat food which costs $1.50 per can. Answer numbers 5 and 6. 15) Write an algebraic expression to describe how much the humane society will spend on kitten supplies based on the number of bottles and the number of cans they buy. 16) How much money (before tax) will the humane society spend if they buy 5 bottles of kitten formula and 12 cans of wet cat food? Show your work.

Answers

Answer 1

Lets call B the nuber of bottles they will buy and C the number of cans.

Then, if each bottle cost $4, the cost of all the bottles will be 4B.

If each can cost $1.50, then, the total cost of the cans is 1.5C.

If we add this two costs, we have the expression we need:

[tex]\text{Cost}=4B+1.5C[/tex]

If they buy 5 bottles of kitten formula and 12 cans of wet cat food, we have B=5 and C=12, and the cost is:

[tex]\text{Cost}=4B+1.5C=4\cdot5+1.5\cdot12=20+18=38[/tex]

They will spend $38.

Jordan’s of Boston sold Lee Company of New York computer equipment with a $7,000 list price. Sale terms were 4/10, n/30 FOB Boston. Jordan’s agreed to pay the $400 freight. Lee pays the invoice within the discount period. What does Lee pay Jordan’s?

Answers

see that you have come to us today regarding a sale issue.
I’m sorry to hear about your issues. When a vendor invoice includes terms of 4/10, n/30, the "4" represents 4% of the amount owed, the "10" represents 10 days, the "n" represents the word "net," and the "30" represents 30 days. The terms 4/10, n/30 indicate that the buyer may take an early payment discount of 4% of the amount owed if the amount owed is remitted within 10 days instead of the normal 30 days. In other words, the buyer can choose either of the following:
Pay within 10 days and deduct 4% of the net amount owed (the invoice amount minus any authorized returns and/or allowances), or
Pay in 30 days and take no discount.
Free On Board (FOB) Contract is a trade term requiring the seller to deliver goods on board a vessel designated by the buyer. When used in trade terms, the word "free" means the seller has an obligation to deliver goods to a named place for transfer to a carrier. That is not relevant to the price though.
So Lee would be paying $7000 with a 4% discount; or $280 off. So Lee would pay $6,720 if Jordan pays the freight.

if the population of a city is 158,000 and isdecreasing by 8% every year, what will thepopulation be in 5 years?

Answers

Solution:

From the question, we use the population decay formula expressed as

[tex]\begin{gathered} P(t)=P(1-r)^t \\ where \\ P\Rightarrow initial\text{ population} \\ r\Rightarrow decay\text{ rate} \\ t\Rightarrow time \\ P(t)\Rightarrow population\text{ at time t} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Given that:

[tex]\begin{gathered} P=158000 \\ r=8\%=\frac{8}{100}=0.08 \\ t=5 \end{gathered}[/tex]

By substituting these values into the population decay formula, we have

[tex]\begin{gathered} P(t)=158000(1-0.08)^5 \\ =104134.88066 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Hence, the population in 5 years will be

Gina want to estimate the total of three bills she has to pay. the bills are for $125,$115,and $138. Gina wants to make sure that she has enough money. she wants the estimate to be greater than the total of the bills. should she round to the nearest ten or hundred

Answers

The bills are:

125

115

138

Since she wants an estimate that is greater than the actual total, she can round these numbers to the nearest ten.

125 will be rounded to the next tens, which is 130

115 will also be rounded to the next tens, which is 120

138 gets bumped to the next tens, that is 140

The total estimate is the sum of the 3 estimates we just made. That is:

130 + 120 + 140 = $390

the following augmented matrix is in row-echelon form and represents a linear system. solve the system by using back-substitution if possible.

Answers

Given the matrix:

Given that it represents a linear system, we have the set of equations:

(1)x + 3y = 6

0x + (1)y = -1

x + 3y = 6..................equation 1

y = -1.........................equation 2.

Let's solve the system using substitution method.

Substitute -1 for y in equation 1:

x + 3(-1) = 6

x + (-3) = 6

x - 3 = 6

Add 3 to both sides:

x - 3 + 3 = 6 + 3

x = 9

From equation 2, we have the value of y:

y = -1

Therefore, the solution to the system is:

x = 9, y = -1

In point form:

(x, y) ==> (9, -1)

In a class of 36 students, 25

and 15 study only one of the
three subjects. Find the;
a) number of students who
study all three subject?
b) number of students who
study only Maths and
Chemistry?
c) Probability that a student
selected at random study only
two of the three subjects?

Answers

a)  Number of students who study all three subject = 15

b) Number of students who study only Maths and Chemistry = 1

c)  Probability that a student selected at random study only two of the three subjects = 1/36

Define Probability

Simply put, probability is the likelihood that something will occur.

When we don't know how an event will turn out, we can discuss the likelihood or likelihood of several outcomes.Statistics is the study of events that follow a probability distribution.

As it is given total number of students is = 36

The subject are Physics, Maths, and Chemistry

Let, physics = p

      maths = m

      chemistry = c

The possible combination are,

p, c, m, pm, cp, cm, pcm   (means 7 combination total)

Let x be the number of student who study all three subjects.

The students who study physics and maths = 17 - x

The students who study physics and chemistry = 18 - x

The number of student who study physics = 25

Now, with the expression we can find the students who study only physics

25 - ((x) + (18 -x) + (17- x))

⇒25 - (x + 18 - x + 17 - x)

⇒25 - (35 - x)

⇒25 - 35 + x

x - 10

Let y be the number of student only chemistry and mathematics.

Now,  with the expression we can find the students who study only chemistry

25-(x + (18- x)) + y

⇒25 - 18 + y

7 - y

Now,  with the expression we can find the students who study only maths

22 - (x + (17 - x)) + y

⇒ 22 - 17 + y

5 - y

The possible combination and expression for each

pcm     →    x

cm       →     y

pc        →    18 - x

pm       →    17 - x

p          →   x - 10

c          →   7 - y

m         →   5 - y

____________

Total     →   37 - y

But the number of students is 36 , so y = 1

That means,

The number of student who take only chemistry = 7 - y

                                                                                 = 7 - 1 = 6

The number of student who take only maths = 5 - y

                                                                           = 5 - 1 = 4

The 15 students takes only one of the three subject

the number that take only physics is 5

so, x - 10 = 5

x = 15 (the student who takes all 3 subjects)

The student who takes only physics and chemistry = 18 - x

                                                                                      = 18 - 10 = 3

The  student who takes only physics and Maths = 17 - x

                                                                                = 17 - 15 = 2

                   

To cross check put the values of x and y,

pcm     →    15

cm       →     1

pc        →    3

pm       →    2

p          →    5

c          →    6

m         →    4

____________

Total     →   36

Therefore, the answers :

a)  Number of students who study all three subject = 15

b) Number of students who study only Maths and Chemistry = 1

c)  Probability that a student selected at random study only two of the three subjects = ( 3 + 1 + 2) / 36 = 1/36

If the price of bananas goes from $0.39 per pound to $1.06 per pound, what is the likely effect of quantity demanded?

Answers

When the price of bananas goes from $0.39 per pound to $1.06 per pound, the likely effect of quantity demanded is that it will reduce.

What is demand?

The quantity of a commodity or service that consumers are willing and able to acquire at a particular price within a specific time period is referred to as demand. The quantity required is the amount of an item or service that customers will purchase at a certain price and period.

Quantity desired in economics refers to the total amount of an item or service that consumers demand over a given time period. It is decided by the market price of an item or service, regardless of whether or not the market is in equilibrium.

A price increase nearly invariably leads to an increase in the quantity supplied of that commodity or service, whereas a price decrease leads to a decrease in the quantity supplied. When the price of good rises, so does the quantity requested for that good. When the price of a thing declines, the demand for that good rises.

9. Solve the system of equations algebraically. Show your reasoning.2y = x -44x + 3y = 5

Answers

I) 2y = x - 4

II) 4x + 3y = 5

First, we put all the variables on the same side subtracting x from both sides of equation I:

I) 2y - x = -4

II) 3y + 4x = 5

Now, we multiply equation I by 4:

I) 8y - 4x = -16

II) 3y + 4x = 5

Then, we add equation I to equation II:

I) 8y - 4x = -16

II) 11y = -11

Therefore, we got from equation II:

y = -11/11 = -1

Applying this result on equation I, we got:

-8 - 4x = -16

4x = 8

x = 8/4 = 2

What is the value of y in the solution set of the system of linear equations shown below?y = -x + 124x - 2y = 36A.10B. 8C. 6D. 2

Answers

y = 2 (option D)

Explanation:

y = -x + 12

4x - 2y = 36

rewriting the equations:

y + x = 12 ....equation 1

-2y + 4x = 36 ....equation 2

Using elimination method:

we will be eliminating y. So we need to make the coefficient of y to be the same in both equation. We will be multiplying the first equation by 2.

2y + 2x = 24 ....equation 1

-2y + 4x = 36 ....equation 2

Add both equations:

2y + (-2y) + 2x + 4x = 24 + 36

2y-2y + 6x = 60

6x = 60

x = 60/6 = 10

Insert the value of x in any of the equation. Using equation 2:

4(10) - 2y = 36

-2y = 36 - 40

-2y = -4

Answer:

• Slope perpendicular to the line: 8/5

,

• Slope parallel to the line: –5/8

Explanation

Given

[tex]5x+8y=7[/tex]

To know the result, it is better if we work with the slope-intercept form:

[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]

Then, to get this kind of form we have to isolate y from the given equation:

[tex]8y=7-5x[/tex][tex]y=\frac{7-5x}{8}[/tex][tex]y=-\frac{5}{8}x+\frac{7}{8}[/tex]

Thus, in this case, m = –5/8 and b = 7/8.

Perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal lines:

[tex]m_2=-\frac{1}{m_1}[/tex]

where m₁ is the slope of line 1 and m₂ is the line perpendicular to line 1.

Then, replacing the values:

[tex]m_2=-\frac{1}{-\frac{5}{8}}[/tex][tex]m_2=\frac{8}{5}[/tex]

Finally, the slopes of parallel lines are the same, meaning:

[tex]m_2=m_1[/tex]

where m₁ is the slope of line 1 and m₂ is the line parallel to line 1.
