Answer:1.3
Step-by-step explanation:
We are going to make simultaneous equations.
x will be our $3 ice cream and y will be our $5 ice cream
Equation1 ---- x + y = 50 (the sum of all the ice creams they sell)
Equation 2 ---- 3x + 5y = 180 Sum of all the $3 and $5 ice creams is $180
Since we can't solve for both variables we will put one of the variables in terms of the other.
Take x+y=50 and subtract y from both sides. (I could have done subtracted x - it did not matter). Now we have x= ₋ y +50 (negative y +50)
Now I am going to take equation 2 and replace the x with -y +50
3 (-y +50) + 5y = 180
Now I will use the distributive law on the 3 and what's in the parentheses:
-3y + 150 + 5y = 180
Now I will combine like terms (the -3y and the 5y)
2y + 150 = 180
Now subtract 150 from both sides of the equation
2y = 30
Divide both sides by 2
and get y= 15 They sold 15 ice creams that cost $5 each
Since equation 1 is x+y=50 we can replace y with 15
x + 15 = 50 Now subtract 15 from both sides x = 35
Since x represents the $3 ice creams, they sold 35 of those.
Check:
35 X 3 = $105
15 x 5 = + <u>75
</u> $180
Answer:
65
Step-by-step explanation:
You can use f(15) = 40 to solve for C, then find f(0), the initial temperature.
40 = f(15)
40 = Ce^(-0.045·15) +14 = .50916C +14
26 = .50916C
26/.50916 = C ≈ 51.065
Then f(0) is ...
f(0) = 51.065·e^0 +14 = 65.065 ≈ 65
The initial temperature of the water was 65 degrees Fahrenheit.
Answer:
b
Step-by-step explanation:
25 minutes
5d + 2(2 - d) = 3(1 + d) + 1
5d + 2(2) - 2(d) = 3(1) + 3(d) + 1
5d + 4 - 2d = 3 + 3d + 1
5d - 2d + 4 = 3d + 3 + 1
3d + 4 = 3d + 4
<u>-3d -3d </u>
4 = 4
d = 0
