Answer: $70
EXPLANATION
Given, for a 4 inch wide crown molding:
8 ft length costs $14
Cost of 40 ft length = ?
8 ft length costs $14
To find the cost of 1 ft length,
Divide through by 8
8ft/8 length costs $14/8
1ft costs $1.75
Now, to find the cost of 40 ft length
1ft costs $1.75
1 ft x 40 would cost $1.75
40 ft would cost $70
Therefore, it would cost $70 to buy 40 ft of crown molding
Response/ NonResponse: Some students might be too tired to answer the question or in converse, a student might feel that his or her grade might be reflected on the survey since it is not anonymous, he or she might sugarcoat the answer. (incorrect response bias)
- Make an equation representing the number of vehicles needed.
We have six drivers so
x + y ≤ 6
That's not really an equation; it's an inequality. We want to use all our drivers so we can use the small vans, so
x + y = 6
- Make an equation representing the total number of seats in vehicles for the orchestra members.
s = 25x + 12y
That's how many seats total; it has to be at least 111 so again an inequality,
25x + 12y ≥ 111
We solve it like a system of equations.
x + y = 6
y = 6 - x
111 = 25x + 12y = 25x + 12(6-x)
111 = 25x + 72 - 12x
111 - 72 = 13 x
39 = 13 x
x = 3
Look at that, it worked out exactly. It didn't have to.
y = 6 - x = 3
Answer: 3 buses, 3 vans
Answer:
w = -7z/2
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to solve for w in terms of z.
The equation given is:
5w + 9z = 2z + 3w
Collect like terms:
5w - 3w = 2z - 9z
2w = -7z
w = -7z/2
