Answer:

3 boxes with 4 sweets and 2 boxes with 5 sweets

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Boxes with 4 sweets= x
  • Boxes with 5 sweets= y

<u>As per given, we have following equations:</u>

  • x + y = 5
  • 4x + 5y = 22

<u>x= 5- y as per the first equation, considering in second one:</u>

  • 4(5 - y) + 5y = 22
  • 20 - 4y + 5y = 22
  • y =2

<u>Then:</u>

  • x= 5 - y = 5 - 2= 3

So there 3 boxes with 4 sweets and 2 boxes with 5 sweets

Alexi thinks of a number. he multiplies his number by 10 and then divides the answer by 100. he then multiples this answer by 10
sesenic [268]

Answer:

0.67

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Solution 1</u>

We can work out the initial number by going backwards from the end:

67/1000= 0.067

0.067*100= 6.7

6.7/10= 0.67

<u>Solution 2</u>

(x*10/100)*1000= 67

x/10*1000= 67

100x= 67

x=67/100

x=0.67

(Geometry Question) A sledding run is 300 yards long with a vertical drop of 27.6 yards. Find the angle of depression of the run
atroni [7]

Answer:

5.28°

Step-by-step explanation:

Draw the triangle formed by the sledding run.  The hypotenuse is 300.  The height is 27.6.  The angle of depression is opposite of the height.

Using sine:

sin θ = 27.6 / 300

sin θ = 0.092

θ = 5.28°

Josiah, the manager of a pet store, bought 72 oz of water conditioner to use in his fish tanks. His small tanks would require 2
Aleksandr [31]
Given that t<span>he x-axis represented the number of small tanks and the y-axis represented the number of large tanks.

Given that </span>h<span>is small tanks would require 2 oz of conditioner and his large tanks would require 6 oz of conditioner and there are a total of 72 oz of water conditioners available.

The line representing the various combinations of </span>tanks he could put the water conditioner into is given by 2x + 6y = 72.

Since, t<span>he manager labeled only the intercepts.

The x-intercept is the value of x when y = 0 and is given by

2x + 6(0) = 72

x = 72 / 2 = 36

Thus, the x-intercept is (36, 0)

</span>
<span>The y-intercept is the value of y when x = 0 and is given by

2(0) + 6y = 72

y = 72 / 6 = 12

Thus, the x-intercept is (0, 12)

Therefore, the points labeled by the manager are: (0, 12) and (36, 0)
