2 numbers that add up makes 5 but multiplied makes -36 Let the first number be x and the second number be y. We're given two equations: [LIST=1] [*]x + y = 5 [*]xy = -36 [/LIST] Rearrange equation (1) by subtracting y from each side: [LIST=1] [*]x = 5 - y [*]xy = -36 [/LIST] Substitute equation (1) for x into equation (2): (5 - y)y = -36 5y - y^2 = -36 Add 36 to each side: -y^2 + 5y + 36 = 0 We have a quadratic equation.

4 rectangular strips of wood, each 30 cm long and 3 cm wide, are arranged to form the outer section
4 rectangular strips of wood, each 30 cm long and 3 cm wide, are arranged to form the outer section of a picture frame. Determine the area inside the wooden frame. Area inside forms a square, with a length of 30 - 3 - 3 = 24. We subtract 3 twice, because we account for 2 rectangular strips with a width of 3. Area of a square is side * side. So we have 24 * 24 = [B]576cm^2[/B]

A cashier has 44 bills, all of which are $10 or $20 bills. The total value of the money is $730. How many of each type of bill does the cashier have? Let a be the amount of $10 bills and b be the amount of $20 bills. We're given two equations: [LIST=1] [*]a + b = 44 [*]10a + 20b = 730 [/LIST] We rearrange equation 1 in terms of a. We subtract b from each side and we get: [LIST=1] [*]a = 44 - b [*]10a + 20b = 730 [/LIST] Now we substitute equation (1) for a into equation (2): 10(44 - b) + 20b = 730 Multiply through to remove the parentheses: 440 - 10b + 20b = 730 Group like terms: 440 + 10b = 730 Now, to solve for b, we [URL='https://www.mathcelebrity.com/1unk.php?num=440%2B10b%3D730&pl=Solve']type this equation into our search engine[/URL] and we get: b = [B]29 [/B] To get a, we take b = 29 and substitute it into equation (1) above: a = 44 - 29 a = [B]15 [/B] So we have [B]15 ten-dollar bills[/B] and [B]29 twenty-dollar bills[/B]

A food truck sells salads for $6.50 each and drinks for $2.00 each. The food trucks revenue from selling a total of 209 salads and drinks in one day was $836.50. How many salads were sold that day? Let the number of drinks be d. Let the number of salads be s. We're given two equations: [LIST=1] [*]2d + 6.50s = 836.50 [*]d + s = 209 [/LIST] We can use substitution to solve this system of equations quickly. The question asks for the number of salads (s). Therefore, we want all expressions in terms of s. Rearrange Equation 2 by subtracting s from both sides: d + s - s = 209 - s Cancel the s's, we get: d = 209 - s So we have the following system of equations: [LIST=1] [*]2d + 6.50s = 836.50 [*]d = 209 - s [/LIST] Substitute equation (2) into equation (1) for d: 2(209 - s) + 6.50s = 836.50 Multiply through to remove the parentheses: 418 - 2s + 6.50s = 836.50 To solve this equation for s, we [URL='https://www.mathcelebrity.com/1unk.php?num=418-2s%2B6.50s%3D836.50&pl=Solve']type it into our search engine and we get[/URL]: s = [B]93[/B]

Orange Theory is currently offering a deal where you can buy a fitness pass for $100 and then each class is $13, otherwise it is $18 for each class. After how many classes is the total cost with the fitness pass the same as the total cost without the fitness pass? Let the number of classes be c. For the fitness pass plan, we have the total cost of: 13c + 100 For the flat rate plan, we have the total cost of: 18c The question asks for c when both plans are equal. So we set both costs equal and solve for c: 13c + 100 = 18c We [URL='https://www.mathcelebrity.com/1unk.php?num=13c%2B100%3D18c&pl=Solve']type this equation into our math engine[/URL] and we get: c = [B]20[/B]

If a 95% confidence interval contains 0, then the 99% confidence interval contains 0 c. If a 99% confidence interval contains 1, then the 95% confidence interval contains 1 d. If a 95% confidence interval contains 1, then the 99% confidence interval contains 1 [B]a. If a 99% confidence interval contains 0, then the 95% confidence interval contains 0 c. If a 99% confidence interval contains 1, then the 95% confidence interval contains 1 [/B] [I]The lower the confidence interval, the wider the range, so if a higher confidence interval contains a point, a lower confidence interval will contain that point as well.[/I]

Which of the following equations represents a line that is parallel to the line with equation y = -3
Which of the following equations represents a line that is parallel to the line with equation y = -3x + 4? A) 6x + 2y = 15 B) 3x - y = 7 C) 2x - 3y = 6 D) x + 3y = 1 Parallel lines have the same slope, so we're looking for a line with a slope of 3, in the form y = mx + b. For this case, we want a line with a slope of -3, like our given line. If we rearrange A) by subtracting 6x from each side, we get: 2y = -6x + 15 Divide each side by 2, we get: y = -3x + 15/2 This line is in the form y = mx + b, where m = -3. So our answer is [B]A[/B].

x is a multiple of 6 and 1 ? x ? 16
x is a multiple of 6 and 1 ? x ? 16. We want multiples of 6 between 1 and 16. We start with 6. Another multiple of 6 is 12 The next multiple of 6 is 18, which is out side the range of 1 ? x ? 16. So our number set is [B]x = {6, 12}[/B]

You and your friend are saving for a vacation. You start with the same amount and save for the same
You and your friend are saving for a vacation. You start with the same amount and save for the same number of weeks. You save 75 per week, and your friend saves 50 per week. When vacation time comes, you have 950, and your friend has 800. How much did you start with, and for how many weeks did you save? [U]Let w be the number of weeks. Set up two equations where s is the starting amount:[/U] (1) s + 75w =950 (2) s + 50w = 800 [U]Rearrange (1) into (3) to solve for s by subtracting 75w[/U] (3) s = 950 - 75w [U]Rearrange (2) into (4) to solve for s by subtracting 50w[/U] (4) s = 800 - 50w [U]Set (3) and (4) equal to each other so solve for w[/U] 950 - 75w = 800 - 50w [U]Add 75w to each side, and subtract 950 from each side:[/U] 25w = 150 [U]Divide each side by w[/U] [B]w = 6[/B] Now plug w = 6 into (3) s = 950 - 75(6) s = 950 - 450 [B]s = 500[/B]

Your friends in class want you to make a run to the vending machine for the whole group. Everyone pi
Your friends in class want you to make a run to the vending machine for the whole group. Everyone pitched in to make a total of $12.50 to buy snacks. The fruit drinks are $1.50 and the chips are $1.00. Your friends want you to buy a total of 10 items. How many drinks and how many chips were you able to purchase? Let c be the number of chips. Let f be the number of fruit drinks. We're given two equations: [LIST=1] [*]c + f = 10 [*]c + 1.5f = 12.50 [/LIST] Rearrange equation 1 by subtracting f from both sides: [LIST=1] [*]c = 10 - f [*]c + 1.5f = 12.50 [/LIST] Substitute equation (1) into equation (2): 10 - f + 1.5f = 12.50 To solve for f, we [URL='https://www.mathcelebrity.com/1unk.php?num=10-f%2B1.5f%3D12.50&pl=Solve']type this equation into our search engine[/URL] and we get: [B]f = 5[/B] Now, substitute this f = 5 value back into modified equation (1) above: c = 10 - 5 [B]c = 5[/B]
