Tara's website, verdantveggies.com, specializes in the sale of rare or unusual vegetable seeds. Tara sells packets of sweet-pepper seeds for $2.85 each and packets of hot-pepper seeds for $4.29 each. She also offers a 16-packet mixed-pepper assortment combining packets of both types of seeds at $3.30 per packet. How many packets of each type of seed are in the assortment?
Answer:
Let's define the variables:
S = # of sweet pepper seeds in the mix pack.
H = # of hot pepper seeds in the mix pack.
Let's suppose that $3.30 is the mean price of the seeds in the mix pack.
Then we have two equations:
S + H = 16.
(S*$2.85 + H*$4.29)/16 = $3.30
Now let's solve this system.
The first step is isolating one variable in one of the equations, i will isolate S in the first equation.
S = 16 - H.
Now we can replace this in the second equation, and solve it for H.
( (16 - H)*$2.85 + H*$4.29)/16 = $3.30
( (16 - H)*$2.85 + H*$4.29) = $3.30*16 = $52.80
$45.60 + H*$1.44 = $52.80
H*$1.44 = $52.80 - $45.60 = $7.20
H = $7.20/$1.44 = 5
Then in the mix pack there are 5 hot-pepper seeds.
And the other 11 must be sweet-pepper seeds
Algebraic equations are equations that contain unknown variables.
The number of packets of sweet-pepper seeds is 11 and the number of packets of hot-pepper seeds is 5.
Let's represent:is
The number of packets of sweet-pepper seeds = s
The number of packets of hot-pepper seeds = h
Based on this question, our system of equations are:
$2.85 x s + $4.29 x h = $3.30(16)
2.85s + 4.29h = 52.8...........Equation 1
s + h = 16...........Equation 2
s = 16 - h
We substitute 16 - h for s in Equation 1
2.85(16 - h) + 4.29h = 52.8
45.6 -2.85h + 4.29h = 52.8
Subtract 45.6 from both sides
45.6 - 45.6 -2.85h + 4.29h = 52.8 - 45.6
1.44h = 7.2
h = 5
There are 5 hot-pepper seeds in the assortment.
Solving for the number of sweet-pepper seeds.
s = 16 - h
s = 16 - 5
s = 11
There are 11 sweet-pepper seeds in the assortment.
Therefore, the number of packets of sweet-pepper seeds is 11 and the number of packets of hot-pepper seeds is 5.

an inspector tested the first 125 radios that came off the production line today and found only 60% acceptable. After the inspector tested 25 more radios, the overall percentage of acceptable radios rose to 62%. The number of these 25 radios that were rejected is???
Answer: 7 radios
Step-by-step explanation:
The following can be deduced from the question:
Number of radios tested = 125 radios
Percentage acceptable = 60%
Numbers acceptable:
= 60% × 125
= 0.6 × 125
= 75 radios
Numbers rejected = 125 - 75 = 50 radio
We are further told that the inspector tested 25 more radios, this will be:
Number of radios tested
= 125 + 25 = 150 radios
Percentage acceptable = 62%
Numbers acceptable
= 62% × 150
= 0.62 × 150
= 93 radios
Numbers rejected= 150 - 93 = 57 radios
The number of these 25 radios that were rejected will be:
= 57 - 50
= 7 radios
The auto parts department of an automotive dealership sends out a mean of 4.34.3 special orders daily. What is the probability that, for any day, the number of special orders sent out will be exactly 55
Answer:
[tex]P(X = 5) = 0.166[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]Mean = 4.3[/tex]
[tex]x = 5[/tex]
Required
Determine the probability that the order is 5
This question can be answered using Poisson distribution.
[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{\alpha ^x e^{-\alpha}}{x!}[/tex]
Where
[tex]\alpha[/tex] is used to represent the mean
and
[tex]\alpha = 4.3[/tex]
[tex]x = 5[/tex]
[tex]e = 2.71828[/tex] ---- Euler's constant
So, we have:
[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{\alpha ^x e^{-\alpha}}{x!}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 5) = \frac{4.3^5 * 2.71828^{-4.3}}{5!}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 5) = \frac{4.3^5 * 2.71828^{-4.3}}{5* 4 * 3 * 2 *1}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 5) = \frac{4.3^5 * 2.71828^{-4.3}}{120}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 5) = \frac{1470.08443 * 0.01356859825}{120}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 5) = \frac{19.9469850243}{120}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 5) = 0.1662248752[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 5) = 0.166[/tex] Approximated

Olga has $40 in her wallet. She has one more $5 bill than $10 bills, and two more $1 bills than $5 bills. If Olga has only three types of bills, how many bills of each denomination does she have?
Answer:
Number of $10 bills = 2
Number of $5 bills = 3
Number of $1 bills = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Total amount = $40
Number of $10 bills = x
Number of $5 bills = x + 1
Number of $1 bills = x + 1 + 2 = x + 3
Find:
Number of each bills
Computation:
10(x) + 5(x+1) + 1(x+3) = 40
10x + 5x + 5 + x + 3 = 40
16x = 32
x = 2
Number of $10 bills = x = 2
Number of $5 bills = x + 1 = 3
Number of $1 bills = x + 3 = 5
Answer:
# of $10 bills = 2
# of $5 bills = 3
# of $1 bills = 5

Exercise 18.14. Toy defects. Workers at a factory produce a toy with a defect about once every 4 hours on average. Each toy costs the factory approximately $7 in labor and supplies. a. What is the expected number of toys with defects at the end of a 40-hour work week
Answer: $70
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Toy with defect is produced once every 4 hours
Cost of labor and supplies incurred for producing a defective toy = $7
Number of defective toys that is expected to be produced in a 40 hour work week :
Number of hours / average hour for producing 1 defective toy
= 40/ 4
= 10 defective toys
Cost incurred for producing 10 defective toys :
($7 * 10) = $70
the cost for 25 square yards of carpet is $650. the cost for 40 square yards of carpet is $950

15+3x = 6x-10
3x = 25
Answer:
40
Step-by-step explanation:
15 + 3x = 6x - 10
15 + 10 = 6x - 3x
25 = 3x
25/3 = x
To check
15 + 3(25/3) = 6(25/3) - 10
15 + 25 = 50 - 10
40 = 40

Suppose that y varies directly with x and y=12 when x=-2. What is x when y=-6
Please help me!!
9514 1404 393
Answer:
x = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
You can work this several ways.
1) Consider the factor that gets you from the y-value of the known pair to the y-value of the unknown pair. Here, that factor is -6/12 = -1/2.
Then the unknown value of x is the known value multiplied by that same factor:
x = (-1/2)(-2)
x = 1
__
2) You can write the equation for a "varies directly" relationship and solve for the constant of proportionality. Then you can use that equation to find the unknown value of x.
y = kx . . . . . . . . . . . . . . y varies directly with x
k = y/x = 12/-2 = -6
Now we know ...
y = -6x
Filling in the new value for y, we have ...
-6 = -6x
1 = x . . . . . . divide by -6
__
3) You can write a proportion. Since we want to find a value for x, it is convenient to put that in the numerator.
-2/12 = x/-6
Multiplying by -6, we get ...
(-6)(-2)/12 = x = 1
