Answer:
Wyatt participated in 3 games and enjoyed 6 rides
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of games
And let y represent the number of rides
Each game costs $1.25
Each ride costs $2.75
The total expenses incurred by Wyatt amounted to $20.25
Thus, the equation becomes: x1.25 + y2.75 = 20.25..... Equation 1
The number of rides he enjoyed is double the games he competed in
Y = 2x... Equation 2
By substituting the value of y into equation 1
x1.25 + y2.75 = 20.25
x1.25 + 2(x)2.75 = 20.25
x1.25 + x5.5 = 20.25
x6.75= 20.25
x= 20.25/6.75
X= 3
Y= 2x
Y= 2(3)
Y= 6
Thus, Wyatt participated in 3 games and enjoyed 6 rides
To find the maximum number of identical packs we see we have 72 pencils and 24 calculators.
This involves discovering the largest number that divides both 72 and 24 evenly,
which is known as the GCM or greatest common multiplier.
To determine the GCM, factor 72 into primes and group them:
72=2 times 2 times 2 times 3 times 3
24=2 times 2 times 2 times 3
Thus, the common grouping is 2 times 2 times 2 times 3, equating to 24.
Therefore, the maximum number of packs is 24.
For pencils:
72 divided by 24=3
Resulting in 3 pencils per pack.
For calculators:
24 divided by 24=1
So, 1 calculator per pack.
The outcome is 3 pencils and 1 calculator in each pack.
Step-by-step explanation:
The difference quotient represents the slope of the line connecting two points on a curve. To achieve the most accurate estimate, we need to use points that are nearest to x = 0. For this problem, the relevant points are (-0.001, 1.999) and (0.001, 2.001).
m = (2.001 − 1.999) / (0.001 − (-0.001))
m = 1
Having no profit indicates that P(x)=0: x³-4x²+3x-12=0
factor this by regrouping: x²(x-4)+3(x-4)=0
extract (x-4): (x-4)(x²+3)=0
thus, x=4 or x²=-3
since x² cannot be negative, the only viable solution is x=4.
