Pens cost 15 pence each.

Mathematics
1 answer:
ch4aika [34]1 year ago

Answer:

The amount the school pays is £32.40

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost of each pen = 15 pence

The cost of each ruler = 20 pence

The number of pens bought by the school = 150

The number of rulers bought by the school = 90

The cost reduction (discount) on the items bought = 1/5

Therefore, we have;

The total cost of the pens bought by the school = 150 × 15 = 2250 = £22.50

The total cost of the rulers bought by the school = 90 × 20 = 1800 = £18.00

The total cost of the writing materials (rulers and pens) bought by the school = £22.50 + £18.00 = £40.50

The discount = 1/5 total cost reduction = 1/5×£40.50  = $8.10

The amount the school pays = The total cost of the writing materials - The discount

The amount the school pays = £40.50 - $8.10 =  £32.40

The amount the school pays =  £32.40.

Write a real world problem that can be represented by the equation 3/4c=21
Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer: Real world problem is "A student have c toffee he distribute \frac{3}{4}th part of those toffees to his friends. He gave total 21 toffees to his friend".

Explanation:

Let a student have c number of toffees in his bag.

It is given that he distribute \frac{3}{4}th part of those toffees to his friends.

The \frac{3}{4}th part of c toffees is,

\frac{3c}{4}

The total number of distributed toffees is 21.

\frac{3c}{4}=21

It is the same as given equation.

If we change the equation in words it means the \frac{3}{4}th part of a number c is 21.

Thomas graphed the line that represents the equation y=34x.
zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

The ordered pairs represent points on the line are

(4, 3) ⇒ C

(2, \frac{3}{2} ) ⇒ D

(-8, -6) ⇒ E

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the ordered pairs represent points on the line, substitute x by the x-coordinate of each point, if the value of y equals the y-coordinate of the point, then the point is on the line.

∵ The equation is y = \frac{3}{4} x

∵ The ordered pair is (8, \frac{1}{6} )

→ Substitute x by 8

∴ y = \frac{3}{4} (8)

∴ y = 6

∵ The value of y does not equal the y-coordinate of the ordered pair

∴ The ordered pair (8, \frac{1}{6} ) does not represent a point on the line

∵ The ordered pair is (\frac{-2}{3}, \frac{1}{2} )

→ Substitute x by \frac{-2}{3}

∴ y = \frac{3}{4} (\frac{-2}{3})

∴ y = \frac{-1}{2}

∵ The value of y does not equal the y-coordinate of the ordered pair

∴ The ordered pair  (\frac{-2}{3}, \frac{1}{2} ) does not represent a point on the line

∵ The ordered pair is (4, 3 )

→ Substitute x by 4

∴ y = \frac{3}{4} (4)

∴ y = 3

∵ The value of y equal the y-coordinate of the ordered pair

∴ The ordered pair (4, 3) represents a point on the line

∵ The ordered pair is (2, \frac{3}{2} )

→ Substitute x by 2

∴ y = \frac{3}{4} (2)

∴ y = \frac{3}{2}

∵ The value of y equal the y-coordinate of the ordered pair

∴ The ordered pair (2, \frac{3}{2} ) represents a point on the line

∵ The ordered pair is (-8, -6 )

→ Substitute x by -8

∴ y = \frac{3}{4} (-8)

∴ y = -6

∵ The value of y equal the y-coordinate of the ordered pair

∴ The ordered pair (-8, -6) represents a point on the line

Consider the function represented by the graph. What is the domain of this function
Neporo4naja [7]
The end of the ray stops the x values from proceeding left at x=0. So your domain is from that point on to infinity. In your solution set x >= 0, since the arrow continues on the right side where x's are positive.
