Two cars got an oil change at the same auto shop. The shop charges customers for each quart of oil plus a flat fee for labor. The oil change for one car required 5 quarts of oil and cost $24.50. The oil change for the other car required 7 quarts of oil and cost $29.00. How much is the labor fee and how much is each quart of oil?


The labor fee is $____
and each quart of oil costs $___

Answers

Answer 1

The labor fee is $16.75, each quart of oil costs $1.75.

Let $x be thee price of each quart of oil and $y be a flat fee for labor.

1. If the oil change for one car required 5 quarts of oil,

then these 5 quarts cost $5x and together with a flat fee for labor it cost $25.50.

Thus,

5x + y = 25.50.

2. If the oil change for another car required 7 quarts of oil, then these 7 quarts cost $7x and together with a flat fee for labor it cost $29.00.

Thus,

7x + y = 29.00.

3. Subtract from the second equation the first one, then

2x = 29 .00 - 25.50

2x = 3.5

x = 3.5/2

x = 1.75

Substitute it into the first equation:

5x + y = 25.50.

8.75 + y = 25.50.

y = 16.75

Thus, The labor fee is $16.65, each quart of oil costs $1.75

y = 3x + 2

Answers

Isolate y on both equations then equate

x²-3x+2y=-42y=-x²+3x-4y=-x²/2+3/2x-2

Now you can equate it with second one to get x

Answer:

Substitute y = 3x + 2 into x² - 3x + 2y = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given system of equations:

[tex]\begin{cases}x^2-3x+2y=-4\\y=3x+2\end{cases}[/tex]

Since y is already isolated in the second equation, the best first step would be to substitute the second equation into the first equation, then solve for x.

Substitute equation 2 into equation 1:

[tex]\implies x^2-3x+2(3x+2)=-4[/tex]

Expand the brackets and simplify so that the equation equals zero:

[tex]\implies x^2-3x+6x+4=-4[/tex]

[tex]\implies x^2+3x+4+4=0[/tex]

[tex]\implies x^2+3x+8=0[/tex]

Now use the Quadratic Formula to solve for x.

Quadratic Formula

[tex]x=\dfrac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}\quad\textsf{when }\:ax^2+bx+c=0[/tex]

Define the variables:

[tex]\implies a=1, \quad b=3, \quad c=8[/tex]

Substitute the values into the formula and solve for x:

[tex]\implies x=\dfrac{-3 \pm \sqrt{3^2-4(1)(8)}}{2(1)}[/tex]

[tex]\implies x=\dfrac{-3 \pm \sqrt{-23}}{2}[/tex]

[tex]\implies x=\dfrac{-3 \pm \sqrt{-1 \cdot 23}}{2}[/tex]

[tex]\implies x=\dfrac{-3 \pm \sqrt{-1}\sqrt{23}}{2}[/tex]

Remember that [tex]i^2=-1[/tex]

[tex]\implies x=\dfrac{-3 \pm i\sqrt{23}}{2}[/tex]

Therefore, the solutions to the system of equations are:

The perimeter of a rectangle is 96 ft and the width is 22 ft what is the length of the rectangle

Answers

The length of the rectangle is 26ft.

What is the perimeter of a rectangle?

The sum of all sides of a rectangle is the perimeter of the rectangle.A rectangle has two equal lengths and two equal widths.Therefore, the perimeter 'P' of a rectangle is the sum of two equal lengths and two equal widths. That is, 'P=2l+2w' where 'l' is the length and 'w' is the width of the rectangle.

What is the length of the rectangle with perimeter 96ft and the width 22ft?

The perimeter of a rectangle is, P = 96 ft.

The width of the rectangle is, w = 22ft.

As we know the perimeter P of a rectangle is given by the formula, P=2l+2w

Therefore, substituting the values in the equation we get,

P = 2l + 2w

96 = 2l + 2*22

96 = 2l + 44

2l = 96 - 44

2l = 52

l = 52/2

l = 26

Hence, the length of the rectangle is 26ft.

Which of the following ordered pairs is a solution of the system?
x + 3y = 12
y-x=12

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer is ( -6, 6 )
Step by step
We have two equations
I like to label them first
x + 3y = 12 we will call A
y - x = 12 we will call B

I like to have the equations be in y intercept form to make the math easier
So I will change equation A to
3y = -x + 12
and change B to
y = x + 12

Now we will substitute the value of y of equation B into equation A

3(x + 12) = -x + 12
distribute
3x + 36 = -x + 12
now Isolate x on one side by adding x to both sides
3x + x + 36 = -x + x + 12
Combine like terms
4x + 36 = 12
Now subtract 36 from both sides to isolate x
4x +36 -36 = 12 - 36
Combine terms
4x = -24
Now solve for x by dividing both sides by 4
4/4x = -24/4
x = -6

Now to find y
Substitute your x value into equation B
y = x + 12
y = -6 + 12
y = 6

So your answer is (-6 , 6)

Check your work with equation
x + 3y = 12 from the original question
Substitute x and y values

-6 + 3(6) = 12
-6+18 = 12
12 = 12

Now do the same with the other equation
y - x = 12
6 - (-6) = 12
6 + 6 = 12
12 = 12

Both are Correct, so problem solved

Jenna collects stamps. She puts the same number of stamps on each page and then inserts each page into one of her two stamp books. One of her stamp books has a total of 840 stamps. The other has 1008. What is the largest number of stamps that Jenna could be putting on each page

Answers

168 is  the largest number of stamps that Jenna could be putting on each page

What is the Greatest Common Factor?

The greatest common factor (GCF or GCD or HCF) of a set of whole numbers is the largest positive integer that divides evenly into all numbers with zero remainder. For example, for the set of numbers 18, 30 and 42 the GCF = 6.

So the largest number of stamps that Jenna could be putting on each page

would be gcd of 1008 and 840.

840 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 5 x 7

1008 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 7.

∴ The Gcd = 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 7 = 168.

Hence 168 is  the largest number of stamps that Jenna could be putting on each page

2). Now we set a point S as the vertex of the angle.

3). Create an arc with a radius 'r' (any length ) from vertex S which bisects the working line V.

4). With the exact radius we mark an arc from point E which bisects the line ED and EF at G and H respectively.

5). Mark an arc from point G which bisects line EF at I.

Which graph represents the circle given by the equation x + y - 4x + 9y -7 = 0?

Answers

The graph of the circle equation is graph (d)

How to determine the circle?

The equation is given as:

x^2 + y^2 - 4x + 9y -7 = 0

Rewrite as:

x^2 - 4x + y^2 + 9y = 7

Express (x^2 - 4x) and (y^2 + 9y) as perfect squares.

So, we have:

(x - 2)^2 + (y + 3)^2 = 7 + 4 +  20.25

Evaluate the sum

(x - 2)^2 + (y + 3)^2 = 31.25

A circle equation is represented as:

(x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2

Where

Center = (h, k)

Radius = r

So, we have:

(h, k) = (2, -3)

r^2 = 31.25

r = 5.5

The circle that has a center of (2, -3) and a radius of 5.5 is graph d

Calculation

The length of an arc (L) with center angle θ is given by:

                                          L = (θ/360) * 2πr

where r is the radius.

Putting the values in the above formula.

For the major arc:
