3. Olivia ordered 24 cupcakes and a layer cake. The layer cake cost $16 more than one
cupcake, and the total cost of the order was $53.50. What was the price of each cupcake?
a) Define a variable for the cost of one cupcake.
b) Write an expression to represent the cost of a layer cake.
c) Write and solve an equation.
d) Interpret your solution within the context of the problem.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

$2.14

Step-by-step explanation:

x =  price

24x+(x+16) = 53.5

25x+16 = 53.5

25x+53.5

x=53.5/25=2.14

Bart earns $6.30 per h. If his regular pay last week was $236.25, how many hours did he work?

Answers

Answer:

Bart worked 37.5 hours last week (37 1/2).

Step-by-step explanation: Divide total pay by rate per hour (in this case $6.30 per hour.)

$236.25 (the total) / $6.30 (money per hour) = 37.5 or 37 1/2

A department store purchases screen-printed t-shirts at a cost of $5 per shirt. They mark up the price 150% (making the selling price 250% of the store's purchase price) and put them on the sales floor. Every month that a t-shirt doesn't sell, the store reduces the selling price by 25%.Which expression shows the selling price after one monthly price reduction?

Answers

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Cost price = $5 per T - shirt

Markup = 150% or cost price

Every month which shirt doesn't sell, selling price drops by 25%

Selling price of Tshirt = (150% * $5) = $7.5

Price after 1 month = (100% - 25%) * $7.5 = $5.625

Hence, the equation could be expressed as :

Price after one month:

(1.5 * $5) - 0.75 * (1.5 * $5)

7.5 - 0.75(7.5)

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Doug's pizza:

Sales price of pizza :$12 plus

Topping (t) = $3 per topping

Jake's pizza:

Sales price of pizza :$17 plus

Topping (t) = $2 per topping

To make their pizza the same price, how many topping needs to be on a pizza of each

12 + 3t = 17 + 2t

3t - 2t = 17 - 12

Answers

Answer:

Remember that a line segment is the portion of a straight line that directly connects two given points. Unlike a line, it does not extend off to infinity in both directions. To find the length, we just use the distance formula between the two points provided.

Example:

Find the distance between (-2,8) and (-7,-5). Said another way, find the length of the line segment between points (-2,8) and (-7,-5).

First, find the distance between the x-coordinates. To do this, subtract one number from the other and then take its absolute value.

We have: |-2-(-7)| = |5| = 5.

Then repeat with the y-coordinates.

We have: |8-(-5)| = |13| = 13.

NOTE: It does NOT matter which way you subtract the numbers because the absolute value of the answer would be the same anyway.

Finally, to compete the length (or distance), square BOTH values, add them, and take the square root. Here's the first part:

[tex]5^{2}[/tex]  +  [tex]13^{2}[/tex]  = 25  +  169  =  194

Taking the square root of 194 and rounding to TWO decimal places, we get a distance of 13.93:

[tex]\sqrt(194)[/tex]  =  13.93

By the way, what you are actually doing is using the Pythagorean Theorem on an imaginary right triangle with the line joining the two lines being the hypotenuse.

The general formula for distance between two points is the following:  [tex]\sqrt{x^2+y^{2}[/tex]  , where x and y are the change in x and y between the two points.

Answer:

x = 32.5

y = 65

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 65 degrees

65 and y are the base angles in an isosceles triangle ( single lines)  so they are equal

y+z = 180 since they form a straight line

65+z = 180

z = 180-65

z = 115

The second triangle is also an isosceles triangle so the base angles are the same as shown by x

180 = x+x+z

180 =2x+ 115

65 = 2x

Divide by 2

x = 32.5

Charlene Langhorst's gross weekly salary is $680. Her federal withholding is $101.62. Her employer takes out the standard rates for FICA (Social Security/Medicare). The state tax is 1.5% of gross pay. Each week she pays $32.40 for medical insurance. What are Charlene's total weekly deductions? *

Answers

Answer:

Total deductions =  $196.24

Step-by-step explanation:

Gross weekly salary = $680

federal holding = $101.62

FICA standard rate = 7.65% of gross earnings

= 7.65% of $680 = 0.0765 × 680 = $52.02

∴ FICA deductions = $52.02

state tax = 1.5% of gross pay = 1.5% of $680

state tax = 0.015 × 680 = $10.2

∴ state tax = $10.2

Medical insurance = $32.40

Total Deductions = 101.62 + 52.02 + 10.2 + 32.40 = $196.24

Mrs. Greene wants to plant a vegetable garden in her yard. She purchased a package containing 30 sections of fencing, each 1-foot long If she uses all 30 sections to create rectangular space, how many different arrangements are possible? What is the largest area she can enclose for her garden with this fencing?

Answers

Answer:

The largest area she can enclose for her garden with this fencing is [tex]56 ft^2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose the rectangular space Mrs. Greene wants to plant has dimensions x feet and y feet.

Since each section of fencing is 1-foot long, both x and y must be integer numbers.

The perimeter of the rectangular space is calculated as:

P = 2x + 2y

And we know she uses all 30 sections of fencing, thus:

2x + 2y = 30, where x, y are integers and positive.

Simplifying by 2:

x + y = 15

Solve for x:

x = 15 - y

This equation doesn't have infinitely many solutions, since both numbers must be integers and positive. Suppose we start by setting y=1, then x=14. That is a possible arrangement for the garden.

Another valid option is for y=2, x=13

Continuing with these patterns, we find the maximum value for y is 7, x=8, because if we set y=8, x=7, this is the same condition as y=7, x=8.

Thus, from y=1 to y=7, there are 8 possible combinations for the arrangement of the garden.

The area of a rectangle is

[tex]A=x\cdot y[/tex]

Testing some possible arrangements:

y=1, x=14

[tex]A=1\cdot 14= 14 ft^2[/tex]

y=2, x=13

[tex]A=2\cdot 13= 26 ft^2[/tex]

y=3, x=12

[tex]A=3\cdot 12= 36 ft^2[/tex]

We can notice the combination y=7, x=8 has an area of:

[tex]A=7\cdot 8= 56 ft^2[/tex]

This is the largest possible area of all combinations, thus:

The largest area she can enclose for her garden with this fencing is [tex]56 ft^2[/tex]
