You bought a total of 6 pens and pencils for $4. If each
pen costs $1 and each pencil costs $.50, how many
pens and pencils did you buy?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: 2 pens and 4 pencils.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you buy 2 pens it is equal to $2.

If you buy 4 pencils it is also equal to $2.

2+2=4

and 2 pens and 4 pencils is equal to 6 in total.

Answer 2

Answer

[tex]2[/tex] pens and [tex]4[/tex] pencils were bought for [tex]\$4[/tex] such that [tex]6[/tex] pens and pencils are bought for [tex]\$4[/tex] and each pen costs [tex]\$1[/tex] and each pencil costs [tex]\$0.50[/tex].

Linear Equation

The equation whose variables' highest power is one is known as linear equation.

To find the unknown quantities, always assume it to be a variable and then form the equation based on the conditions given in the question.

How to solve the linear equations?

Let the number of pens bought be [tex]x[/tex].

and the number of pencils bought be [tex]y[/tex].

The total number of pens and pencils [tex]=6[/tex].

So, the first equation is,

[tex]x+y=6[/tex]

[tex]x=6-y[/tex] ... (i)

And the costs per pen and pencil is [tex]\$1[/tex] and [tex]\$0.50[/tex] respectively.

So, the second equation is,

[tex]x+0.5y=4[/tex] ... (ii)

Now, solve the pair of linear equations.

Put the value of [tex]x[/tex] in the equation (ii),

[tex]6-y+0.5y=4\\-0.5y=-2\\y=4[/tex]

So,

[tex]x=6-4\\x=2[/tex]

Thus, [tex]2[/tex] pens and [tex]4[/tex] pencils were bought for [tex]\$4[/tex].

Answer:

  $321.99

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the annuity formula and solve for P.

  A = P(12/r)((1 +r/12)^(12t) -1) . . . . value of a series of deposits P earning rate r compounded monthly for t years.

  50,000 = P(12/0.05)((1 +0.05/12)^(12·10) -1) = P(240)(0.64700950)

  P = 50,000/155.282279 = 321.99

You would need to deposit $321.99 in the account each month to have $50,000 in 10 years.

We know the answer to the following infinite sum:

The kinetic energy, K, of an object due to its motion is given by K = mv2, where m is the mass of the object and v is its velocity. What is the mass of the object, m, in terms of its kinetic energy and velocity?​

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, your formula isn't right. In general, the KE = 1/2 m * v^2

KE = 1/2 m * v^2                         Multiply both sides by 2

2*Ke = m * v^2                           Now divide by v^2

2*Ke/v^2 = m

Keisha bought these supplies for school:



4 packs of pencils that cost $0.85 each
6 packs of pens for $1.25 each


5. What was the total cost of the pencils and pens, including a 6% tax?



A
$13.35
B
$10.90
C
$11.55
D
$2.23
.

Answers

Answer:

C. $11.55

Step-by-step explanation:

First, multiply 4 by $0.85 to get an answer of $3.40. Next, multiply 6 by $1.25 to get an answer of $7.50. Add up the cost of the pencils and pens by adding $3.40 and $7.50 to get $10.90. Next, we have to add the tax. Multiply $10.90 by 0.06 to get $.65. Add the $.65 to the $10.90 for a grand total of $11.55. Hope this helps!

The angle marked 73° is the average of the arcs marked 96° and x.

  (x +96°)/2 = 73°

  x = 2(73°) -96° . . . . solve for x

  x = 50°

Which expression is equivalent?
On edge

Answers

Answer: Choice B

[tex]x^{1/8}y^{8}[/tex]

======================================================

Explanation:

The two rules we use are

[tex](a*b)^c = a^c*b^c[/tex]

[tex](a^b)^c = a^{b*c}[/tex]

When applying the first rule to the expression your teacher gave you, we can say that:

[tex]\left(x^{1/4}y^{16}\right)^{1/2} = \left(x^{1/4}\right)^{1/2}*\left(y^{16}\right)^{1/2}[/tex]

Then applying the second rule lets us say

[tex]\left(x^{1/4}\right)^{1/2}*\left(y^{16}\right)^{1/2} = x^{1/4*1/2}*y^{16*1/2} = x^{1/8}y^{8}[/tex]

Therefore,

[tex]\left(x^{1/4}y^{16}\right)^{1/2} = x^{1/8}y^{8}[/tex]

-------------

In short, we just multiplied each exponent inside by the outer exponent 1/2.

So that explains why the exponents go from {1/4,16} to {1/8,8} for x and y in that exact order.
