Molly is making strawberry-infused water. For each ounce of strawberry juice, she uses 3 time many ounces of water. She wants to

make a total of 64 ounces of strawberry infused water. If we let s represent the amount of strawberry juice she needs to use and let w represent the amount of water she will use, then which of the following systems of equations models this situation?

Answer:

<h2>Molly needs 48 ounces of water and 16 ounces of strawberries.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Givens

  • For each ounce of strawberry juice, she uses 3 times many ounces of water.
  • She wants to make a total of 64 ounces of strawberry infused water, that menas, 64 ounces between fruit and water.

If s represents strawberry and w represents water, the equations would be

w=3s

s+w=64

This system representes the given situation, because the total ounces of water is three times the ounces of strawberry juice. And the sum between those two is 64 ounces.

So, we replace the first equation into the second one to solve

s+w=64\\s+3s=64\\4s=64\\s=\frac{64}{4}\\ s=16

Then, we replace this value in the other equation, to find the missing variable

w=3s\\w=3(16)\\w=48

Therefore, Molly needs 48 ounces of water and 16 ounces of strawberries.

Answer:

s + 3w = 64

Step-by-step explanation:

s represents the amount of strawberry juice

w represents the amount of water

then,  

s + 3w = 64

Select all of the following true statements if R = real numbers, Z = integers, and W = {0, 1, 2, ...}.
PSYCHO15rus [73]
We can start solving this problem by first identifying what the elements of the sets really are.

R is composed of real numbers. This means that all numbers, whether rational or not, are included in this set.

Z is composed of integers. Integers include all negative and positive numbers as well as zero (it is essentially a set of whole numbers as well as their negated values).

W on the other hand has 0,1,2, and onward as its elements. These numbers are known as whole numbers.

W ⊂ Z: TRUE. As mentioned earlier, Z includes all whole numbers thus W is a subset of it.

R ⊂ W: FALSE. Not all real numbers are whole numbers. Whole numbers must be rational and expressed without fractions. Some real numbers do not meet this criteria.

0 ∈ Z: TRUE. Zero is indeed an integer thus it is an element of Z.

∅ ⊂ R: TRUE. A null set is a subset of R, and in fact every set in general. There are no elements in a null set thus making it automatically a subset of any non-empty set by definition (since NONE of its elements are <u>not</u> an element of R).

{0,1,2,...} ⊆ W: TRUE. The set on the left is exactly what is defined on the problem statement for W. (The bar below the subset symbol just means that the subset is not strict, therefore the set on the left can be <u>equal</u> to the set on the right. Without it, the statement would be false since a strict subset requires that the two sets should not be equal).

-2 ∈ W: FALSE. W is just composed of whole numbers and not of its negated counterparts.

Janie ordered boxed lunches for a student advisory committee meeting. Each lunch costs $4.25. The total cost of the lunches is $
andriy [413]

Answer:

11 boxed lunches

Step-by-step explanation:

Full question

Janie ordered boxed lunches for a student advisory committee meeting. Each lunch cost 4.25. The total cost of the lunches is 53.75, including a 7$ delivery fee. Write and solve an equation to find x the number of boxed lunches Janie ordered

First of all subtract the delivery feesince it was inckuded in the total cost, this will now be the total cost of all the noxed lunches ordered by Janie, then divide the balance of the total cost by the cost of one boxed lunch to get thd total boxed kunches

X= 53.75-7/4.25

X= 53.75-7= 46.75/4.25

X=11

Jeremy is making a trail mix containing raisins and peanuts. Raisins cost $1.50 per pound. Peanuts cost $2.50 per pound. Jeremy
Kobotan [32]
<span>The answer is c. 1.5r + 2.5(5 – r) = 10.50. Let r be the number of raisins and p be the number of peanuts. Raisins cost $1.50 per pound: 1.5r. Peanuts cost $2.50 per pound: 2.5p. Jeremy spends $10.50: 1.50r + 2.50p = 10.50. Jeremy makes 5 pounds of trail mix: r + p = 5. So, we have the system of two equations: 1.5r + 2.5p = 10.50 and r + p = 5. Use the second equation to express p: p = 5 - r. Now, substitute p in the first equation: 1.5r + 2.5(5 - r) = 10.50. Therefore, the correct choice is c. 1.5r + 2.5(5 – r) = 10.50.</span>

In the Fall STA 2023 Beginning of the Semester Survey, students were asked how many parties they attended every week and how man
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

-95.78

Step-by-step explanation:

As the researcher decided to make the number of parties attended per week the explanatory variable, this would be variable x in the regression line, and of course, the variable y would be the number of text messages sent per day.

After constructing the linear regression equation, the researcher found that an approximate value \hat y for the actual value of y could be represented by the line

\hat y=64.96+25.41x

Since this is an approximate value, it is not expected that it coincides with the actual value of y. We define then the residual for each value of x as the difference between the actual value of y and the approximation for the given x.

For the value x = 2 (the student attended 2 parties that week) the actual value of y is 20 (the student sent 20 text messages per day that week).

The approximate value of y would be according to the regression line

\hat y(2)=64.96+25.41(2)=64.96+50.82=115.78

Hence, the residual value for x=2 would be

y_{real}-\hat y=20-115.78=-95.78
