Sam decides to download some new music. She downloaded 3 albums and 10
singles, and her total was $61. The next day she purchased more music from the
same retailer and downloaded 6 more albums and 8 singles for a total of $74.
Assuming that all albums and singles are the same price, how much did she spend on
each album and each single? Write a system of equations to represent this
situation. Then solve for the solution using the elimination method.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

An album costs $7 while a single cost $4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the amount spent on singles be $x while the amount spent on albums be $y

First day, she downloaded 3 albums and 10 singles that cost $61

Hence;

3y + 10x = 61 ••••••••(ii)

Second day, she downloaded 6 albums and 8 singles for $74

8x + 6y = 74 ••••••••(ii)

We now want to use elimination method to solve both equations

Multiply equation i by 2 and ii by i

20x + 6y = 122

8x + 6y = 74

Subtract ii from i now

12x = 48

x = 48/12

x = 4

Recall;

3y + 10x = 61

substitute for x

3y + 10(4) = 61

3y + 40 = 61

3y = 61-40

3y = 21

y = 21/3

y = 7

An album costs $7 while a single cost $4

See Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

1.

Given

[tex]y = 6x - 11[/tex]

[tex]-2x - 3y = -7[/tex]

Solve for x and y

In the first equation, we have: [tex]y = 6x - 11[/tex]

Substitute [tex]6x - 11[/tex] for [tex]y[/tex] in the second

[tex]-2x - 3y = -7[/tex]

[tex]-2x - 3(6x - 11) = -7[/tex]

[tex]-2x - 18x + 33 = -7[/tex]

[tex]-20x+ 33 = -7[/tex]

[tex]-20x= -7-33[/tex]

[tex]-20x= -40[/tex]

Divide through by -1

[tex]20x = 40[/tex]

[tex]x = 40/20[/tex]

[tex]x = 2[/tex]

Recall that:

[tex]y = 6x - 11[/tex]

[tex]y = 6 * 2 - 11[/tex]

[tex]y = 1[/tex]

2,

Given

[tex]-3x - 3y = 3[/tex]

[tex]y = -5x - 17[/tex]

In the second equation, we have: [tex]y = -5x - 17[/tex]

Substitute [tex]-5x - 17[/tex] for [tex]y[/tex] in the first equation

[tex]-3x - 3y = 3[/tex]

[tex]-3x - 3(-5x - 17) = 3[/tex]

[tex]-3x + 15x + 51 = 3[/tex]

[tex]12x + 51 = 3[/tex]

[tex]12x=3 - 51[/tex]

[tex]12x=-48[/tex]

[tex]x = -48/12[/tex]

[tex]x = -4[/tex]

Recall that: [tex]y = -5x - 17[/tex]

[tex]y = -5 * -4 - 17[/tex]

[tex]y = -3[/tex]

3. Given

[tex]-4x + y = 6[/tex]

[tex]-5x - y = 21[/tex]

Add both equations to eliminate y

[tex]-4x - 5x + y - y = 6 + 21[/tex]

[tex]-9x= 27[/tex]

Solve for x

[tex]x = 27/-9[/tex]

[tex]x = -3[/tex]

Substitute -3 for x in the first equation: [tex]-4x + y = 6[/tex]

[tex]-4 * -3 + y = 6[/tex]

[tex]12 + y = 6[/tex]

[tex]y = 6 - 12[/tex]

[tex]y = -6[/tex]

4. Given

[tex]-7x - 2y = -13[/tex]

[tex]x - 2y = 11[/tex]

Make x the subject in the second equation

[tex]x - 2y = 11[/tex]

[tex]x = 11 + 2y[/tex]

Substitute 11 + 2y for x in the first equation

[tex]-7x - 2y = -13[/tex]

[tex]-7 (11 + 2y) - 2y = -13[/tex]

[tex]-77 -14y - 2y = -13[/tex]

[tex]-77 -16y = -13[/tex]

[tex]-16y = -13 + 77[/tex]

[tex]-16y = 64[/tex]

[tex]y = 64/-16[/tex]

[tex]y = -4[/tex]

Substitute -4 for y in [tex]x = 11 + 2y[/tex]

[tex]x = 11 + 2 * -4[/tex]

[tex]x = 11 -8[/tex]

[tex]x = 3[/tex]

5. Given

[tex]-2x + 6y = 6[/tex]

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

Multiply the first equation by 7 and the second by - 2 to eliminate x

The first

[tex]7(-2x + 6y = 6)[/tex]

[tex]-14x + 42y =42[/tex]

The second

[tex]-2(-7x + 8y = -5)[/tex]

[tex]14x - 16y = 10[/tex]

Add the resulting equations

[tex]-14x + 42y =42[/tex]

[tex]14x - 16y = 10[/tex]

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

[tex]-14x + 14x + 42y - 16y = 42 + 10[/tex]

[tex]42y - 16y = 42 + 10[/tex]

[tex]26y = 52[/tex]

Solve for y

[tex]y = 52/26[/tex]

[tex]y = 2[/tex]

Substitute 2 for y in [tex]-2x + 6y = 6[/tex]

[tex]-2x + 6 * 2 = 6[/tex]

[tex]-2x + 12 = 6[/tex]

[tex]-2x = 6 -12[/tex]

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

Solve for x

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

Answers

Answer:

88 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

First, notice that when you rotate a point 272 degrees clockwise, there will be 88 more degrees before it returns to its original point (since a 360 turn is equivalent to not moving, and 360-272=88).

Because of that, we can deduce that rotating a point 88 degrees counterclockwise will be equivalent to rotating it 272 degrees clockwise.

We can know that that's the smallest possible positive answer, because any angle smaller than 360 will be the smallest possible way to express it.

For a recent season in college football, the total number of rushing yards for that season is recorded for each running back. The mean number of rushing yards for the running backs that season is 790 yards. One running back had 1,637 rushing yards for the season, which is 2.42 standard deviations above the mean number of rushing yards. What is the standard deviation of the number of rushing yards for the running backs that season?

(A) 250 yards

(B) 300 yards

(C) 350 yards

(D) 400 yards

(E) 450 yards

Answers

Answer:

(C) 350 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

From available information

Mean = 790

1 running back = 1637 yards

Standard deviation above mean = 2.42

Using formula

z =( x - mean)/sd

2.42 = (1637-790)/sd

2.42 = 847/sd

We cross multiply

2.42sd = 847

Divide through by 2.42

Sd = 847/2.42

Sd = standard deviation = 350

So our answer is 350 and therefore option c.
