Answer: 34 beverages

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use system of equations to find the amount of adult beverages sold to women. Let's use x for women and y for men.

Equation 1

1.25x+2y=470.5

Equation 2

x+y=248

We can use elimination method to cancel out the y so we can find the about for women, since that is what the question is asking. To do so, we must multiply the entire second equation by 2 so both y equal.

1.25x+2y=470.5

2x+2y=496

Now, we can subtract both equations to cancel out 2y.

-0.75x=-25.5           [divide both sides by -0.75]

x=34

There were 34 adult beverages sold to women.

A video game sets the points needed to reach the next level based on the function g(x) = 8(2)x + 1, where x is the current level
Liula [17]
For us to determine the number of points that is needed in order to surpass or succeed the hardest setting of the game level 5, we use first the function g(x) to determine the total points required for the lower level.
             g(x)  = 8(2)(x) + 1
We substitute the x of the function with 5 since we are in level 5.
             g(5) = 8(2)(5) + 1 = 81

Then, to determine the points for the hardest setting, we multiply the points by 3 as given in function h(x).
              h(x) = 3(81) = 243

Hence, to succeed the hardest setting of level 5, one needs a total of 243 points.

Maria has 14 pencils, Ted has 9 pencils, Tom has 12 pencils, Lucinda has 13 pencils, and Jumana has 12 pencils. How can they red
Alisiya [41]

5 people.

14 + 9 + 12 + 13 + 12 = 60 total pencils.

60 pencils /  5 people = 12 pencils each.

Which is a zero of the quadratic function f(x) = 16x2 32x − 9?
tankabanditka [31]
A zero of a function is the value of x for which f(x) = 0
f(x) = 16x^2 + 32x - 9 = 0
16x^2 - 4x + 36x - 9 = 0
(16x^2 - 4x) + (36x - 9) = 0
4x(4x - 1) + 9(4x - 1) = 0
(4x + 9)(4x - 1) = 0
4x + 9 = 0 and 4x - 1 = 0
4x = -9 and 4x = 1
x = -9/4 and x = 1/4

The thrill of riding a roller coaster is​ addictive, both for its users who take the​ ride, and for the designers and engineers
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

The quantitative variables in this case are:

A.  Speed

D.  GForce

E.  Height

G. Duration

H. Numinversions

J.  Length

Step-by-step explanation:

One criteria to differentiate qualitative variables from quantitative variables is to determine if mathematical calculations over these variables makes sense.

If it makes sense, it is a quantitative variable.

For example, binary variables, although they can be represented by 0 and 1, would be a qualitative variable.

The quantitative variables in this case are:

A.  Speed

D.  GForce

E.  Height

G. Duration

H. Numinversions

J.  Length

They all will be represented by numbers for which mathematical operations make sense.
