Lela purchased 3 mechanical pencils and a notebook that cost $5. Her purchase totaled $11. How much was each pencil? Use p to represent the cost of each pencil.

Answers

Answer 1

The cost of each pencil is $2

What are algebraic expressions?

Algebraic expressions are expressions comprised of variables, terms, factors, coefficients, and constants.

They are also made up of arithmetic operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication division, etc

From the information given, we have that 'p' represents the cost of each pencil

The equation is represented as;

3p + $5 = $11

collect like terms

3p = $11 - $5

subtract like terms

3p = $6

Make 'p' the subject of formula

p = $6/3

p = $2

Thus, the cost of each pencil is $2

The dimensions of a basketball court are shown below. Suppose a player throws the ball from a corner to a teammate standing at the center of the court. a. If center court is located at the origin, find the ordered pair that represents the location of the player in the bottom right corner b. find the distance that the ball travels

Answers

The 94 ft. by 50 ft dimensions of the court obtained from a similar question posted online, gives;

a. The ordered pair representing the location of the player in the bottom right corner is (47, -25)

b. The distance traveled by the ball obtained using Pythagorean theorem, is approximately 53.2 feet.

How can Pythagorean theorem be used to find the distance the ball travels?

The possible dimensions of a rectangular court obtained from a similar question posted online are;

Length of the basketball court = 94ft.

Width of the basketball court = 50 ft.

From the question, we have;

Location of the court center = The origin of a coordinate plane

a. The ordered pair that represent the location of a player in the bottom right corner is found as follows;

Let (x, y) represent the coordinates of the bottom right corner of the court, we have;

Horizontal distance from the center of the court (the origin) to the right boundary of the court, x = (94 ft.)/2 = 47 ft.

Vertical distance from the center to bottom of the court, y = (50 ft.)/2 = 25 ft.

Following the convention of points to the right and above the origin being positive, while points below the origin are negative, we have;

The ordered pair (the coordinates of the player) that represents the location of the player in the bottom right corner is therefore;

(x, y) = (47, -25)

b. The distance, d, that the ball travels is given by Pythagorean theorem as follows;

d = √((47 - 0)² + ((-25) - 0)²) = √(2834) ≈ 53.2

The ball travels approximately 53.2 feet.

Answers

The equivalent equation for the given equation is 2.3p - 10.1 =6.49p - 4. Therefore, option B is the correct answer.

Given that, 2.3p – 10.1 = 6.5p – 4 – 0.01p.

We need to find which equations have the same solution as the given equation.

What is an equivalent equation?

Equivalent equations are algebraic equations that have identical solutions or roots. Adding or subtracting the same number or expression to both sides of an equation produces an equivalent equation. Multiplying or dividing both sides of an equation by the same non-zero number produces an equivalent equation.

Now, 2.3p - 10.1 = 6.5p - 4 - 0.01p can be simplified as follows:

To add or subtract terms of algebraic equations group like terms add numerals and keep the variables the same.

That is, 2.3p - 10.1 = (6.5p - 0.01p) - 4  

⇒2.3p - 10.1 =6.49p - 4

The equivalent equation for the given equation is 2.3p - 10.1 =6.49p - 4. Therefore, option B is the correct answer.

Rewrite the following standard form linear equation into slope-intercept form. Write the answer starting with y=

12x-4y=-12

Answers

The equation of the line in the slope-intercept form is given y= 3x + 3 .

The graph of the equation y = mx + c is a line with m as the slope and m and c as the y-intercept. In the slope-intercept representation of the linear equation, the values of m and c are real numbers. A line's slope, expressed in m, indicates how steep it is. A line's gradient is also referred to as its slope occasionally. The y-coordinate of the point where the line's graph meets the y-axis is known as the y-intercept, or c, of a line.

The  equation of the line is given by 12x - 4y = -12 .

This is the standard form of the line.

Now to represent the line in the slope-intercept form we need to write the equation for y in terms of x.

or, 12x-4y=-12

or, -4y = -12x - 12

or, y = (-12x - 12 ) ÷ (-4)

or, y = 3x + 3

Here the slope is 3 and the y-intercept is also 3.

Therefore the slope-intercept form of the line is given by y = 3x + 3

Answers

-33 is the value of √x² - y² at x = 3 and y = -6.

The expression given in the question is √x² - y² and we have to find the value of this expression when the value of x is 3 and the value of y is -6.

In order to evaluate √x² - y²  simply put x = 3 and y = -6 and then solve accordingly.

Let's proceed to solve the expression,

√x² - y²

at x = 3 and y = -6. we have

= √3² - (-6)²

= √9-36

= 3-36

= -33

⇒√x² - y² = -33

∴ On solving, √x² - y² for x = 3 and y = -6 we get -33 as its evaluation.

w ≤ l – 10
2l + 2w ≥ 62
w ≤ l – 10

Answers

the system of inequalities that represents the possible length in meters, l, and the possible width in meters, w, of the pool is given as w ≤ l - 10 and 2 l + 2 w > 62.

Let the length of the pool be x.

So, ATQ, the width will be represented by the inequality:

x - 10 ≥ width

w ≤ x - 10

w ≤ l - 10

Also, it is given that, the perimeter of the pool is more than 62 m
So, we get that:

P > 62

Also, we know that:

P = 2 l + 2 w

So, we get that:

2 l + 2 w > 62.

Therefore, the system of inequalities that represents the possible length in meters, l, and the possible width in meters, w, of the pool is given as w ≤ l - 10 and 2 l + 2 w > 62.

Find a counterexample to show that the conjecture is false.
The sum of two numbers is always greater than their difference.

Answers

The statement is false, a counterexample is given by using the numbers 1 and -1.

How to find the counterexample?

Here we have the statement:

"The sum of two numbers is always greater than their difference"

So we just need to find two numbers such that the statement is false.

This is really trivial, for example, we can propose the numbers 0 and 0.

The sum gives 0 + 0 = 0

The difference is 0 - 0 = 0

The sum is not greater than the difference.

Now, I will propose a less trivial counterexample, let's use the numbers 1 and -1.

The sum gives 1 + (-1) = 1 - 1 = 0

The difference gives: 1 - (-1) = 1 + 1 = 2

The difference is larger than the sum, so we found a counterexample for the given statement.

What is an equation of the line that passes through the points?

(−1,−7) and (−8,0)

Calculate the slope (m) using

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

So, we have

m = (0 + 7)/(-8 + 1)

This gives

m = -1

The equation of the line that passes through the points is then calculated as

y = m(x - x1) + y1
