A salesman used three types of order forms: A, B, C. He used 40 of Form A. Of Form B he used four times as many as Form A plus 1

/2 as many as Form C. He used as many of Form C as Form A plus 1/2 as many as Form B. Altogether, how many forms did he use? a. 440 b. 200 c. 250 d. 320 e. 500

Answer:

Given that

A = 40

B = 4A + 0.5C = 160 + 0.5C  .......... (i)

C =  A +  0.5B =  40 + 0.5 B  .......... (ii)

multiply (ii) with 2

B = 2C -40              .......... (iii)

B = 0.5C + 160        ...........(i)

subtract (i) from (iii)

0 = 1.5C -200

C = 400/3

put in (i)

B = 160 + 0.5(400/3) = 680/3

total forms = A+B+C = 40 + 680/3 + 400/3 = 487 approx

So e.500 is the better option

Answer:

a. 440

Step-by-step explanation:

The information provided allows us to set up the following system of linear equations:

A = 40\\B=4A+0.5C\\C=A+0.5B

We already have the value for A, solving the system gives us the values for B and C:

A = 40\\B=(4*40)+0.5C\\C=40+0.5B\\\\B -B-80 = (4*40)+0.5C-2C\\C=\frac{160+80}{1.5}\\C=160\\B= (4*40) +(0.5*160)\\B=240

The total number of forms used is:

A+B+C = 40+240+160 = 440

He used 440 forms.

A rectangular garden has a width of 90 feet.The perimeter is 500 feet.What is the length of the garden?
Lorico [155]
Perimeter for a rectangle equals 2W + 2L where W - width and L - length

We are given that:
2 (90) + 2L = 500

or, 180 + 2L = 500

Subtracting 180 from both sides of the equation, we get

2L = 320

or, L = 160 ft

Marianna [84]
Hi Kay, the point-slope form of a line is given by: y - y1 = m(x - x1). Substituting the given point, (6, -8), and the slope, -2, gives: y - (-8) = -2 * (x - 6) This becomes: y + 8 = -2x + 12

The Greens want to put an addition on their house 18 months from now. They will need to save $10,620 in order to achieve this go
BARSIC [14]
The easiest of the two options to prove is option A.

To see whether or not option A. is true, we need to find out how much the Greens have been saving every month. We know that the Greens have saved $6120 in the last year, or twelve months. To find out how much they have been saving each month, we need to divide the amount they have saved by the number of months they have been saving.

$6120/12 months

This turns out to be $510 each month.

Now, to find out whether or not option 11
A. is true, we need to find out the amount of money that the Greens would save in eighteen months.

$510 * 18 = $9180

Now that we have the amount of money that the Greens would save over eighteen months, we need to see if an additional month of saving would let them reach $10,620.

$9180 + $510 = $9690

Now, we know that option A is not true because the Greens would not have enough money after only one extra month of saving. Because option A is not true, option B must be true.

Alexis invests $475 in a bank account that earns 1.25% interest compounded annually. Which function models the growth of her inv
olchik [2.2K]
Answer: The function that modes this situation would be: y = 475(1 + .0125)^x.

This is an example of an exponential equation. These equations are always in the form y = ab^x.

The a value is the starting value. The b value is the interest rate. The x value is the number of years.

The only thing to be careful about is the rate. We are adding 1.25% or 0.125. Make sure that you are adding 1 whole to the 1.25% and don't just use 0.125.

In △EKL, m∠K = 90º, m∠E = 25º, EK = 3 cm, KH - altitude. Find EH.
laiz [17]

Answer:

EH = 3.31

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given a right angle triangle EKL. As KH has been given as the altitude (perpendicular) of the right angled triangle, and K is the right angle, we can say that EK is tthe base of the triangle and EH is the only side lleft, which is the hypotenuse of the triangle.

Where,

EK = Base = 3

KH = perpendicular altitude

EH = Hypotenuse

m<K = 90

m<E = 25

We know that

cosθ = Base/ Hypotenuse

cos 25 = 3/ EH

EH = 3/cos25

EH = 3.31

Perpendicular alitutude can also be calculated by using the formula for tanθ.
