At a concession stand; three hot dogs and two hamburgers cost $9.75; two hot dogs and three hamburgers cost $10.25. Find the cost of one hot dog and the cost of one hamburger.
9514 1404 393
Answer:
hot dog: $1.75hamburger: $2.25Step-by-step explanation:
Let x and y represent the cost of a hot dog and a hamburger, respectively. The the two purchases can be described by ...
3x +2y -9.75 = 0
2x +3y -10.25 = 0
We can list the coefficients of these general-form equations in 2 rows, listing the first one again at the end:
3, 2, -9.75, 3
2, 3, -10.25, 2
Now, we can form differences of cross-products in adjacent pairs of columns:
d1 = (3)(3) -(2)(2) = 9 -4 = 5
d2 = (2)(-10.25) -(3)(-9.75) = -20.50 +29.25 = 8.75
d3 = (-9.75)(2) -(-10.25)(3) = -19.50 +30.75 = 11.25
Then the solutions are found from ...
1/d1 = x/d2 = y/d3
x = d2/d1 = 8.75/5 = 1.75
y = d3/d1 = 11.25/5 = 2.25
The cost of one hot dog is $1.75; the cost of one hamburger is $2.25.

This is my simplification of the "cross-multiplication method" of solving a pair of linear equations. That method can be found described on web sites and in videos. This version, and the versions described elsewhere, are variations on Cramer's Rule and on the Vedic Maths method of solving equations. Each of those do similar differences of cross products, perhaps in less-easily-remembered fashion.
For a given pair of columns with coefficients ...
a b
c d
The cross-product we form is ad -cb.
When the function f(x) = 4(2)x is changed to f(x) = 4(2)x − 13, what is the effect? (5 points)
Select one:
a. There is no change to the graph because the exponential portion of the function remains the same.
b. The x-intercept is 13 spaces higher.
c. The y-intercept is 13 spaces lower.
d. All input values are moved 13 spaces to the left.
Answer:
C
If x = o then f(0) = 4(2) * 0 = 0
If f(x) = 4(2) 0 - 13
then f(x) = -13 at x = 0
Answer:
it will indeed be c

2/3 log 125 = log (125^2/3) = log 25
1/2 log 9 = log (9^1/2) = log 3
So we can rewrite the equation as,
log x = log 25 + log 3 - log 15
or, log x = log (25×3) - log 15
or, log x = log 75 - log 15
or, log x = log (75/15)
or, log x = log 5
or, x = 5

X^2 + bx + 49 is a perfect squad trinomial what is one possible value of b?
a perfect square trinomial, (x + y)² = x² + 2xy + y²
so, if we have the x of the bx, what is left is the b
the expression would have to be (x + 7)², since we have the 49 and the x²
so, what's left: x² + 14x + 49,
b = 14

Answer:
Solution given:
f(x)=5x-3
let
y=f(x)
y=5x-3
interchanging role of x and y
x=5y-3
x+3=5y
y=[tex]\frac{x+3}{5}[/tex]
$o,
f-¹(x)=[tex]\frac{x+3}{5}[/tex]
we conclude that
f-¹(x)≠g(x)
Each pair of function are not inverses.
g(x)=x/5+3
let g(x)=y
y=x/5+3
interchanging role of x and y
x=y/5+3
x-3=y/5
doing crisscrossed multiplication
5(x-3)=y
y=5x-15
g-¹(x)=5x-15
So
g-¹(x)≠f-¹(x)
Each pair of function are not inverses.

Find two numbers that have 2, 5, and 7 as factors.
Step-by-step explanation:
One easy way to find a number that has all of these numbers as factors is to multiply them all together, so 2 * 5 * 7 = 10 * 7 = 70, which is one number.
To find the other number, we can multiply the number we already have by any integer greater than 1, e.g. 2, to get 70* 2= 140 as our other number, making our numbers 70 and 140

Michelin Tires would like to estimate the average tire life of its Latitude Tour tire in terms of howmany miles it lasts. Assume the standard deviation for the tire life of this particular brand is 6000miles. Determine the sample size needed to construct a 95% confidence interval with a margin oferror within 2000 miles.ShowWork:
Answer:
6 samples
Step-by-step explanation:
Given :
Sample size, = n
Standard deviation, = 6000
Margin of Error = 2000
Confidence interval, α = 95%
Zcritical at 95% = 1.96
n = (Zcritical * σ) / margin of error
n = (1.96 * 6000) /2000
n = 11760 / 2000
n = 5.88
n = 6 samples

Find the value of x in each case:
9514 1404 393
Answer:
x = 36
Step-by-step explanation:
The interior angle at E is (180-2x). The interior angle at F is (180-4x). The sum of the interior angles of the triangle is 180, so we have ...
(180 -2x) +x +(180 -4x) = 180
180 = 5x . . . . . . add 5x-180 to both sides
36 = x . . . . . . . divide by 5
__
Additional comment
This value of x makes the exterior angles at E and F be 72° and 144°, respectively. The internal angles at E, F, G are then 108°, 36°, 36°, making the triangle isosceles with EF = EG.

1/2 of 12=1/4 of?
1/3 of 90=2/3of?
Answer:
24 and 45
Step-by-step explanation:
Okay, now that I can answer this question with the right answers:
The easy way to do this is to first solve the left hand side of the equation.
1/2 of 12 is the same as 12/2 = 6.
So 6 = 1/4 * x
To solve for that unknown x, just multiply both sides by 4 to cancel out the fraction:
6*4 = 4* 1/4*x
24 = x
For the other equation, do the same thing:
1/3 * 90 = 90/3 = 30
30 = 2/3*x
30*3 = 3* 2/3 *x
90 = 2x
90/2 = 2x/2
45 = x
Sam's monthly bills are normally distributed with mean 2700 and standard deviation 230.9. He receives two paychecks of $1500 each in a month, post taxes and withholdings. What is the probability that his expenses will exceed his income in the following month?Ð) 10%. B) 16%.C) 21%.D) 29%.E) 37%.
Answer:
A) 10%
Step-by-step explanation:
Normal Probability Distribution
Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
Sam's monthly bills are normally distributed with mean 2700 and standard deviation 230.9.
This means that [tex]\mu = 2700, \sigma = 230.9[/tex]
What is the probability that his expenses will exceed his income in the following month?
Expenses above 2*1500 = $3000, which is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 3000.
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{3000 - 2700}{230.9}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 1.3[/tex]
[tex]Z = 1.3[/tex] has a p-value of 0.9032.
1 - 0.9032 = 0.0968 that is, close to 10%, and thus the correct answer is given by option A.
Computers from a certain manufacturer have a mean lifetime of 62 months, with a standard deviation of 12 months. The distribution of lifetimes is not assumed to be symmetric. Between what two lifetimes does Chebyshev's Theorem guarantee that we will find at least approximately 75% of the computers
Answer:
Between 38 and 86 months.
Step-by-step explanation:
Chebyshev Theorem
The Chebyshev Theorem can also be applied to non-normal distribution. It states that:
At least 75% of the measures are within 2 standard deviations of the mean.
At least 89% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.
An in general terms, the percentage of measures within k standard deviations of the mean is given by [tex]100(1 - \frac{1}{k^{2}})[/tex].
In this question:
Mean of 62, standard deviation of 12.
Between what two lifetimes does Chebyshev's Theorem guarantee that we will find at least approximately 75% of the computers?
Within 2 standard deviations of the mean, so:
62 - 2*12 = 38
62 + 2*12 = 86
Between 38 and 86 months.

Excellent question, but let's rephrase it.
Suppose you have a square of surface area of 2851.
What would be a hundredth of such square?
What would be surface area of that hundredth.
Why hundredth? Because percent denotes hundredths cent is a latin word for hundred. You would usually encounter similar word that describes 100 years: century.
Well it is actually very easy. Just divide 2851 into 100 pieces and look at what is the area of one piece.
[tex]2851/100=285.1=y[/tex]
So a single piece has an area of 258.1.

f(x)=x+6
g(x) = 2x + 6
Write the expressions for (f-g)(x) and (fg)(x) and evaluate (f+g)(1).
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given functions are,
f(x) = x + 6
g(x) = 2x + 6
(f - g)(x) = (x + 6) - (2x + 6)
= -x
(f . g)(x) = f(x) × g(x)
= (x + 6)(2x + 6)
= 2x² + 6x + 12x + 36
