Answer: 6 pounds of sugar candy, and 9 pounds of chocolate candy.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's define the variables:
C = pounds of chocolate candies used.
S = pounds of sugar candies used.
We know that he wants to make a total of 15lb, then:
C + S = 15
We also want that the price per pound to be equal to 5$.
This means that the price of the 15 pounds will be the same as the price of the un-mixed candies.
C*$7.00 + $2.00*S = $5.00*15
Then we have a system of equations:
C + S = 15
C*$7.00 + $2.00*S = $5.00*15
To solve this system, we need to start by isolating one of the variables, i will isolate C in the first equation:
C = 15 - S
now we can replace that in the other equation:
(15 - S)*$7.00 + $2.00*S = $5.00*15
Now we can solve this for S.
$105 - $5.00*S = $75
$105 - $75 = $5.00*S
$30 = $5.00*S
$30/$5 = S = 6
Then there are 6 pounds of sugar candy, and we can use the equation:
C + S = 15
C + 6 = 15
C = 15 - 6 = 9
There are 9 pounds of chocolate candy in the mix.
Answer:
9 pounds of chocolate candy
6 pounds of sugar candy
Step-by-step explanation:
x will represent pounds of chocolate candies used
y will represent pounds of sugar candies used
x + y = 15
x · $7.00 + $2.00 · y = $5.00 · 15
x = 15 - y
(15 - y) · $7.00 + $2.00 · y = $5.00 · 15
105 - $5.00 · y = 75
105 - 75 = $5.00 · y
$30 = $5.00 · y
$30 ÷ $5 = y
$30 ÷ $5 = 6
y = 6
x + y = 15
x + 6 = 15
x + 6 - 6 = 15 - 6
x = 9

Answer:
y=2x+1
Step-by-step explanation:
Input X=2 into the function, so y=2(2)+1, which is 5. This matches the table.
Answer:
It's the first one: y= 2x +1
Step-by-step explanation:
If you multiply 2 by 2, you'll get 4. then you add 1. You'll get 5.

Kyle is buying a book online for $14.58. It is on sale for 10% off. What is the sale price with a 8.25% tax?
First, find the discount by finding 10% of $14.58. To do this, convert 0% into a decimal and multiply by $14.58.
14.58 x 0.1 = 1.458.
Since this a sale price, how much he is getting off, subtract from the total.
14.58 - 1.458 = 13.122.
We still have to find the sales tax. Solving is similar to finding the discount.
13.122 x 0.0825 = 1.082565.
Now, since it is a tax, add to the total.
13.122 + 1.082565 = 14.204565
Round to the nearest hundredth, and you have $14.20.
The sale price with after tax is $14.20.

16) Avery selects two chips from a bag without looking at them. The bag has 5 green chips, 3 red chips, and 7 blue chips. What is the probability that he selects a red and then a blue chip (without replacing)? * 6 points 2/3 7/75 1/10 2/45
Answer: [tex]\dfrac{1}{10}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: The bag has 5 green chips, 3 red chips, and 7 blue chips.
Total chips = 5+3+7= 15
Number of ways to select a red and then a blue chip = 3 x 7 = 21
Total number of ways to select 2 chips without replacement = 15 x 14 =210
Required probability = [tex]\dfrac{\text{favorable outcomes}}{\text{Total outcomes}}[/tex]
[tex]=\dfrac{21}{210}=\dfrac{1}{10}[/tex]
So, the probability that he selects a red and then a blue chip (without replacing) = [tex]\dfrac{1}{10}[/tex]

============================================================
Explanation:
Let's find the slope of the table. This will tell us the rate of change.
m = slope
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (25250 - 26375)/(2 - 1) .... I used the first two rows
m = -1125/1
m = -1125
The slope of -1125 means the plane's altitude is decreasing at a rate of 1125 feet per minute. This is the descent speed.
Since we're told the initial altitude was 27500 ft, this means b = 27500
This means y = mx+b turns into y = -1125x+27500
x is the number of minutes and y is the altitude at time x
As a way to check this, plug in various x values of the table. You should get corresponding y values that match the table. I'll let you do this part.
------------------
Now plug in y = 16250 and solve for x
y = -1125x+27500
16250 = -1125x+27500
-1125x+27500 = 16250
-1125x = 16250-27500
-1125x = -11250
x = -11250/(-1125)
x = 10
It takes 10 minutes after the descent period has started, for the pilot to get to 16,250 ft.
Since the pilot was contacted at the x = 4 minute mark, this means 10-4 = 6 minutes is the duration needed for the pilot to go from 23,000 ft to 16,250 ft.

Leon is using an area model to multiply 38×14. First, he makes a rectangle that is 38 units long and 14 units tall. Then, he breaks it into smaller parts using place value to make it easier to multiply. Use the drop-down menus to show the area of each part.
Answer:
300, 120, 80 and 32 respectively.
Step-by-step explanation:
To break it down for easy multiplication, write
38 as 30 + 8
14 as 10 + 4
Now let's multiply
(30 + 8)(10 + 4) = 300 + 120 + 80 + 32
So the areas of each part would be
300, 120, 80 and 32 respectively.
