Let s denote the quantity of sports drinks purchased by April

Let p symbolize the amount of pizza slices bought by April

Since she spent a total of $21.25, the equation can be stated as:

s+p=21.25

p+3+p=21.25

2p=18.25

p=9.125

As she ordered 3 more sports drinks than pizza slices, we have s = p + 3

Full Question

April bought some sports drinks and slices of pizza for her friends. She bought 3 more sports drinks than slices of pizza. If her total order was 21.25, how many sports drinks did she purchase? One slice of pizza costs 2.25, and a sports drink costs 1.25.

Solution -

Let the total number of pizza slices purchased be X

Then the total number of sports drinks purchased would be X + 3

Given -

Cost of one slice of pizza = 2.25 dollars

Cost of one sports drink = 1.25 dollars

The total cost for X slices of pizza and X + 3 sports drinks would be

X * 2.25 + (X+3) * 1.25 = 21.25

2.25 X + 1.25 X + 3.75 = 21.25 \\3.5 X = 21.25 -3.75\\3.5 X = 17.5\\X = \frac{17.5}{3.5} \\X = 5

Thus, the count of pizza slices purchased equals 5

Consequently, the number of sports drinks acquired is

5 + 3\\8

A cylindrical tank has a radius of 2 m and a height of 9 m. The tank is filled with water. Find the work needed to pump the top
Leona [12618]
The required work to pump water is 3,325,140 Joules. Step-by-step explanation: Work done by the pump is calculated by multiplying the force exerted on the pump by the distance the water is moved. Force equates to mass multiplied by gravitational acceleration. Consequently, Force = (water density × tank volume) × gravitational acceleration, leading to F = ρVg. Therefore, Work done = (ρVg) * d. Given the values of ρ = 1000 kg/m³, g = 9.8 m/s², d = 3 m, we compute the work done: Work = 1000 * 113.10 * 9.8 * 3 = 3,325,140 Joules.

A food truck operator has traditionally sold 75 bowls of noodle soup each day. He moves to a new location and after a week sees
lawyer [12517]

Answer:

The p-value for this test is 0.031. It should be interpreted as "There is a 96.9% likelihood that the actual average of soup sales at the new site exceeds 75 bowls it daily"

Step-by-step explanation:

The p-value"In hypothesis testing, the p-value, or probability value, represents the likelihood of obtaining test outcomes at least as extreme as the observed results, given that the null hypothesis holds true"

A hollow sphere sits snugly in a foam cube so that the sphere touches each side of the cube. Find the volume of the foam.
Leona [12618]

Answer:

                          π

V-foam = 4r³( 2 - ----- )

                             3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let r denote the radius of the sphere. The volume of the sphere is expressed as

V = (4/3)(π)(r³).

Next, understand that the cube's side length is 2r, hence the cube's volume is

V = (2r)³, which equals 8r³.

The volume of the foam is derived from the cube's volume subtracting that of the sphere:

V-foam = 8r³ - (4/3)(π)(r³). This can be simplified to

                          π

V-foam = 4r³( 2 - ----- )

                             3

You have just opened a new nightclub, Russ' Techno Pitstop, but are unsure of how high to set the cover charge (entrance fee). O
Svet_ta [12734]
a) q(p) = -15p + 300; b) R(p) = -15p² + 300p; c) C(p) = -30p + 1600; d) 1) P(p) = -15p² + 330p - 1600; d) 2) p = $11. To develop the demand equation, we plot the values of the cover charge against the number of guests per night for the given coordinates (9,165) and (10,150). The slope provides the relationship needed to formulate the linear equation relating guests and cover charge. The revenue function follows from multiplying price by guests, while the cost function encompasses overhead and beverage expenses associated with operational costs. The profitability equation emerges from subtracting costs from revenues, allowing us to determine the optimal entrance fee for maximum profit.

In a class of 30 students, 19 are studying French (F), 12 are studying Spanish (S) and 7 are studying both French and Spanish. H
lawyer [12517]

Answer: Fourteen students are not enrolled in any foreign languages.

Step-by-step explanation: Begin with the total student count and subtract the number enrolled in each language class. This yields 19 for French, 12 for Spanish, and 7 for those taking both. Summing these numbers gives 38. Next, repeat this process, subtracting each category from 30 to find how many students are not participating in either language. You would end up with 11 for French, 18 for Spanish, and 23 for both. Adding these values results in 52. Finally, subtract 38 from 52 to arrive at the final result of 14.
