In one week, a music store sold 9 guitars for a total of $3611. Electric guitars sold for $479
each and acoustic guitars sold for $339 each. Write and solve a system of equations to
determine how many of each type of guitar was sold.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

4 electric guitars and and 5 acoustic guitars were sold.

Step-by-step explanation:

Electric guitars:  [tex]x[/tex]

Acoustic guitars: [tex]y[/tex]

[tex]y + x = 9\\y(339) + x(479) = 3611\\[/tex]

--------------------------------

[tex]y + x = 9\\339y + 479x = 3611[/tex]

--------------------------------

[tex](y + x = 9)339\\(339y + 479x = 3611)1[/tex]

--------------------------------

[tex]339y + 339x = 3051\\339y + 479x = 3611[/tex]

--------------------------------

[tex]-140x = -560\\x = \frac{-560}{-140} \\x = 4[/tex]

Choose any of the two equations in the first step and substitute 4 for [tex]x[/tex].

[tex]y + 4 = 9\\y = 9 - 4\\y = 5[/tex]

Therefore, there are 4 electric guitars and and 5 acoustic guitars were sold.

Note: In the elimination method of simultaneous equations, (+) + (+) = (-); (+) + (-) = (+) and (-) + (+) = (+) the signs addition or subtraction.

answer:

d

perimeter = 52.56 inches

area = 137.12 square inches

The total perimeter of the given figure is 60.56 inches and the total area of the given figure is 137.12 square inches. Therefore, option D is the correct answer.

The composite shape with trapezium and semicircle is given.

What is the perimeter?

The perimeter of a shape is defined as the total distance around the shape. It is the length of the outline or boundary of any two-dimensional geometric shape. The perimeter of different figures can be equal in measure depending upon the dimensions.

The total perimeter = Perimeter of trapezium + Circumference of semicircle

Perimeter of trapezium = (8+10+10+20)

= 48 inches

Circumference of semicircle =πr

Here radius=8/2

= 4 inches

Now, 3.14×4 =12.56 inches

The total perimeter = 48+12.56

= 60.56 inches

Total area= Area of trapezium + Area of semicircle

Area of trapezium =1/2 (a+b)×h

= 1/2 (20+8)×8

= 28×4

= 112 square inches

Area of semicircle =πr²/2

= (3.14×4²)/2

= 25.12

Total area= 112+25.12

= 137.12 square inches

The total perimeter of the given figure is 60.56 inches and the total area of the given figure is 137.12 square inches. Therefore, option D is the correct answer.

The surface area of the solid formed by the triangular prism and cube will be 598.33 square inches.

What is a prism?

A prism is a closed solid that has two parallel bases connected by a rectangle surface.

The height of a right triangular prism is 11/6 inches.

Each side of the triangular base measures 10 inches, and the height of the base is 26/3 inches.

The triangular prism is placed at top of a cube whose side measures 10 inches so that one of the triangular prism’s bases lies completely on one side of the cube.

Then the surface area of the prism will be

Method 2

Separate the ribbon into two triangles and a rectangle.

33 + 3 + 3 = 39 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Formulae

Area of a rectangle = width × lengthArea of a triangle = 1/2 × base × height

Method 1

Area of the rectangle:

= 3 × 15

= 45 cm²

Area of the cut-out triangle:

= 1/2 × 3 × 4

= 6 cm²

Find the area of the rectangle, 45 cm².  Subtract the area of the cut-out triangle from the rectangle,  45 - 6 = 39 cm²

Method 2

Area of the rectangle:

= 3 × (15 - 4)

= 3 × 11

= 33 cm²

Area of one triangle:

= 1/2 × (3 ÷ 2) × 4

A piece of string is 144 inches long. Isabel wants to cut it into 2 pieces so that one piece is five times as long as the other. How long is each piece?

Answers

Answer:

24 inches120 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The lengths can be found by considering their ratio:

  short : long = 1 : 5

The sum of the ratio units is 1+5 = 6, and the sum of the lengths is 144 inches. That means each "ratio unit" stands for (144 in)/6 = 24 inches of length.

The lengths are ...

  1 : 5 = 24 in : 120 in

The pieces are 24 inches and 120 inches in length.

__

Equivalently, you can let s represent the shorter length. Then 5s is the longer one, and their total is ...

  s +5s = 144

  s = 144/6 = 24

  5s = 5(24) = 120

The lengths are 24 inches and 120 inches.
