Complete Question:
Mike took clothes to the cleaners three times last month. First, brought 4 shirts and 1 pair of slacks and paid $11.45. Then brought 7 shirts, 2 pairs of slacks, and 2 sports and paid $35.39. Finally, brought 5 shirts and 2 sports and paid $21.43 . How much was charged for each shirt, each pair of slacks, and each sports coat?
Answer:
The charges
For each Shirt = $1.49
For each pair of slacks = $5.49
For each sports coat = $6.99
Step-by-step explanation:
Let Shirt = a
Let pair of slacks = b
Let sports coat = c
First, brought 4 shirts and 1 pair of slacks and paid $11.45
= 4a + b = 11.45 ..........Equation 1
b = 11.45 - 4a
Then brought 7 shirts, 2 pairs of slacks, and 2 sports and paid $35.39
= 7a + 2b + 2c = 35.39.........Equation 2
5 shirts and 2 sports and paid $21.43
5a + 2c = 21.43............Equation 3
Hence:
4a + b = 11.45 ..........Equation 1
7a + 2b + 2c = 35.39.........Equation 2
Using elimination method
Multiply Equation 2 by the coefficient of b = 1 in Equation 1
Multiply Equation 1 by the coefficient of b = 2 in Equation 2
8a + 2b = 22.9 .......Equation 4
7a + 2b + 2c = 35.39.........Equation 2
Subtracting Equation 2 from Equation 4
= a - 2c = -12.49 ........Equation 5
a = -12.49 + 2c
Subtituting -12.49 + 2c for a in Equation 3
5a + 2c = 21.43............Equation 3
5(-12.49 + 2c) + 2c = 21.43
= -62.45 + 10c + 2c = 21.43
Collecting like terms
10c + 2c = 21.43 + 62.45
12c = 83.88
c = 83.88/12
c = 6.99
5a + 2c = 21.43............Equation 3
Substituting 6.99 for c in Equation 3
5a + 2(6.99) = 21.43
5a + 13.98 = 21.43
5a = 21.43 - 13.98
5a = 7.45
a = 7.45/5
a = 1.49
4a + b = 11.45 ..........Equation 1
Substituting 1.49 for a in Equation 1
4(1.49) + b = 11.45
b = 11.45 - 4(1.49)
b = 11.45 - 5.96
b = 5.49
Therefore, since the charges
For each shirt = a
The charges for each Shirt = $1.49
For each pair of slacks = b
The charges for each pair of slacks = $5.49
For each sports coat = c
The charges for each sports coat = $6.99
Use the graph showing Debra's account balance to answer the question that follows. ^
About how long will it take for Debra's account balance to equal $60?
A - 6 months
B - 6 years
C - 3 months
D - 3 years
Answer: 2 years
Step-by-step explanation:
In the given graph, we have
Account Balance ($) on y-axis
Time (years) on x-axis.
To know the time taken to get a balance of $60 , we check the point corresponding to 60 at y-axis and then join it to the line of the function and stop.
Then from there we drop a line to x-axis.
We get x=2.
That is it will take 2 years to get $60 balance in Debra's account.
So the correct answer is 2 years.

A)0.33 feet
B)3.75 feet
C)3 feet
D)5 feet
Question 3: A triangle has sides with lengths 17, 12, and 9. Is the triangle right, acute, or obtuse?
A)Acute
B)Right
C)Can't be determined
D)Obtuse
Question 4: Two friends are standing at opposite corners of a rectangular courtyard. The dimensions of the courtyard are 12 ft. by 25 ft. How far apart are the friends?
A)21.34 ft.
B)21.93 ft.
C)27.73 ft.
D)19.21 ft.
Answer:
Question 1 = D) Acute
Question 2 = C)3 feet
Question 3 = D) Obtuse
Question 4 = C)27.73 ft.
Step-by-step explanation:
Question 1: A triangle has sides with lengths 5, 6, and 7. Is the triangle right, acute, or obtuse?
In order to be able to accurately classify that a triangle with 3 given sides is either a right , acute or obtuse angle, we use the Pythagoras Theorem
Where:
If a² + b² = c² = Right angle triangle
If a² +b² > c² = Acute triangle.
If a² +b² < c² = Obtuse triangle.
It is important to note that the length ‘‘c′′ is always the longest.
Therefore, for the above question, we have lengths
5 = a, 6 = b and c = 7
a² + b² = c²
5² + 6² = 7²
25 + 36 = 49
61 = 49
61 ≠ 49, Hence 61 > 49
Therefore, this is an Acute Triangle
Question 2: A 15-foot statue casts a 20-foot shadow. How tall is a person who casts a 4-foot-long shadow?
This is question that deals with proportion.
The formula to solve for this:
Height of the statue/ Length of the shadow of the person = Height of the person/ Length of the shadow of the person
Height of the statue = 15 feet
Length of the shadow of the person = 20 feet
Height of the person = unknown
Length of the shadow of the person = 4
15/ 20 = Height of the person/4
Cross Multiply
15 × 4 = 20 × Height of the person
Height of the person = 15 × 4/20
= 60/20
Height of the person = 3 feet
Therefore, the person is 3 feet tall.
Question 3: A triangle has sides with lengths 17, 12, and 9. Is the triangle right, acute, or obtuse?
In order to be able to accurately classify that a triangle with 3 given sides is either a right , acute or obtuse angle, we use the Pythagoras Theorem
Where:
If a² + b² = c² = Right angle triangle
If a² +b² > c² = Acute triangle.
If a² +b² < c² = Obtuse triangle.
It is important to note that the length ‘‘c′′ is always the longest.
Therefore, for the above question, we have lengths 17, 12, 9
9 = a, 12 = b and c = 17
a² + b² = c²
9² + 12² = 17²
81 + 144 = 289
225 = 289
225 ≠ 289
225 < 289
Hence, This is an Obtuse Triangle.
Question 4: Two friends are standing at opposite corners of a rectangular courtyard. The dimensions of the courtyard are 12 ft. by 25 ft. How far apart are the friends?
To calculate how far apart the two friends are we use the formula
Distance = √ ( Length² + Breadth²)
We are given dimensions: 12ft by 25ft
Length = 12ft
Breadth = 25ft
Distance = √(12ft)² + (25ft)²
Distance = √144ft²+ 625ft²
Distance = √769ft²
Distance = 27.730849248ft
Approximately ≈27.73ft
Therefore, the friends are 27.73ft apart.
100 pointer and will mark brainliest thank you. Hi! I ask that you provide a digital scatter plot image of this graph and predict the line of best fit and make sure to sketch it on the graph aswell. Thank you. Arm Span (inches) Height (inches) 58 60 49 47 51 55 19 25 37 39 44 45 47 49 36 35 41 40 46 50 58 61 And then provide the answers to these questions about the scatter plot which variable did you plot on the x-axis, and which variable did you plot on the y-axis? Explain why you assigned the variables in that way. Write the equation of the line of best fit using the slope-intercept formula y = mx + b. Show all your work, including the points used to determine the slope and how the equation was determined. What does the slope of the line represent within the context of your graph? What does the y-intercept represent Test the residuals of two other points to determine how well the line of best fit models the data. Use the line of best fit to help you to describe the data correlation. Using the line of best fit that you found, approximate how tall is a person whose arm span is 66 inches According to your line of best fit, what is the arm span of a 74-inch-tall person
I used arm span as the x-axis and height as the y-axis; arm span is the independent variable because height is typically dependent on arm span. Although the opposite could be argued for.
The equation of the line of best fit is y= 12+(7/9)x. To get the slope I used the points (37,39) and (19,25). The slope is therefore 14/18=7/9. The slope represents that height increases by 7/9 inches when arm span increases by 1 inch. The y-intercept 12 represents roughly the height when arm size is very small. I tested the residuals of the points (47,49) and (58,61). The respective predictions are 48.556 and 57.111. The respective residuals are then (49-48.556)=0.444 and (61-57.111)=3.889. It seems that the line models the data well until the x values get larger, where the performance decreases. The line of best fit with its positive slope indicates that there is a positive correlation with arm span and height.
Using the model, a person with arm span 66 inches has a height of 12+(7/9)*66= 63.333 inches. A person with 74 inches height has an estimated arm span of 62*9/7= 79.714 inches.
The equation of best fitted line is given as follows
[tex]\rm y = 0.955x+ 3.787 \\with \; R^2 = 0.951[/tex]
The y intercept 3.787 represents the height of that is independent of Arm span.
The height of the person whose arm span is 66 inches is 66.817 inch.
The arm span of a person whose height is 74 inches is 73.52 inch
According to the given data the arm span and heights are given in inches
Using Microsoft excel we can draw the scatter plot of both the variables such that arm span is on X axis and Height is on Y axis
The image for the excel work done showing calculations and scatter plot is attached.
Now we can fit the linear tread line and to find out the equation of fitted line just tick on the " show equation" line option of trend line fitting
The equation of best fitted line is given as follows
[tex]\rm y = 0.955x+ 3.787 .....(1) \\with \; R^2 = 0.951[/tex]
Slope of line of best fit = 0.955
So we can conclude that height (Y) is related to Arm span according to equation (1)
Equation (1) shows the equation of line of best fit for the given data
The y intercept 3.787 represents the height of that is independent of Arm span.
So the height of the person whose arm span is 66 inches is given following
[tex]\rm y = 0.955 \times 66+ 3.787 \\y = 66.817 \; inch[/tex]
Similarly the arm span of a person whose height is 74 inches
[tex]\rm 74 = 0.955x +3.787 \\x = 73.52 \; inches[/tex]

a wolf population of 850 wolves is increasing by 7% each year. Find the wolf population after 7 years
Answer:
1,267 wolvesStep-by-step explanation:
Initial population of wolf = 850 wolves
If the wolves increases by 7% each year, yearly increment will be 7% of 850
= 7/100 * 850
= 7*8.5
= 59.5 wolves.
This shows that the wolves increases by 59.5 each year.
After 7 years, increment will be equivalent to 59.5 * 7 = 416.5
The wolf population after 7 years = Initial population + Increment after 7 years
= 850 + 416.5
= 1266.5
≈ 1267 wolves
Hence the population of the wolves after 7 years is approximately 1,267 wolves

Ken needs a total of $410 to buy a new bicycle. He has $35 saved. He earns $15 each week delivering newspapers. How many weeks will Ken have to deliver papers to have enough money to buy the bicycle?
Thanks so much! :D
Answer:
25 weeks
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we already know that he has $35 buck-a-roons saved, we can just subtract that from the cost of the bicycle to find the actual price—which would be 375. Then, we know that for every week, he gains $15 bucks. Therefore we know that 15 would be our variable so we can create the following equation:
15x + 35 = 410
15x = 375
15x/15 = 375/15
x = 25
After 25 weeks, Ken will have enough money to buy the bicycle.

Answer:
notice: temperature rises quickly at sunrise, and drops before sunsetwonder: whether this location is shaded by mountains later in the dayStep-by-step explanation:
notice
The temperature starts off below zero in the early morning and stays cold until the sun comes up. Then it warms rapidly to an above zero temperature that peaks in early afternoon. Once the sun gets lower, the temperature starts cooling off again. (The daily temperature range of 25-27 degrees is pretty typical for partly-cloudy sky conditions and stable weather.)
wonder
We wonder if this isn't a location that is on the east- or north-side of a mountain, or in a mountain valley, where the sun hits it early and is shaded later in the day. (The topo map attached seems to show it is in such a location.)
Justine and Meagan played a trivia game. Justine answered a question incorrectly and lost 7 points. Then Meagan answered correctly and got the opposite score. Which is the correct way to represent that “the opposite of Justine’s score was equal to Meagan’s score
Answer:
[tex]m = -j[/tex], or in this case, [tex]m=-(-7)[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming that Justine's score is represented by [tex]j[/tex] and Meagan's score is represented by [tex]m[/tex], we know that [tex]j[/tex] will always be the opposite of [tex]m[/tex].
To represent opposite, we put a negative sign before the variable.
This makes the current number, even if it's negative, the opposite value.
Let's test it out.
Since Justine's score is -7, substituting it into the equation makes it [tex]m=-(-7)[/tex]. We know that two negatives make a positive, so [tex]m=7[/tex].
Now let's assume Justine's score is 7. Plugging it into the equation, we get [tex]m=-(7)[/tex]. That's the same thing as [tex]m = -1(7)[/tex], and -1 times 7 is -7.

What is Geometric progression?A geometric progression is a special type of progression where the successive terms bear a constant ratio known as a common ratio. It is also known as GP. The GP is generally represented in form a, ar, ar2.... where a is the first term and r is the common ratio of the progression. The common ratio can have both negative as well as positive values. To find the terms of a geometric series, we only need the first term and the constant ratio.
The geometric progression is of two types. They are
finite geometric progression andinfinite geometric progression.Given:
x,3,−1/3

From a group of 11 people, 4 are randomly selected. What is the probability the 4 oldest people in the group were selected
The probability that the 4 oldest people in the group were selected is based on combinatorics is 0.00303 or 0.303%.
Given that:
Find how many ways the 4 oldest people can be selected from the group.
Since the 4 oldest people are already determined, there is only 1 way to select them.
n = 11 (total number of people in the group) and k = 4 (number of people to be selected).To calculate the probability, to determine the total number of ways to select 4 people from the group of 11. This can be found using the combination formula:
Number of ways to choose k items from n items :
C(n,k) = n! / (k!(n-k)!)
Calculate the total number of ways to select 4 people from the group:
Plugging n and k value from given data:
C(11,4 )= 11! / (4!(11-4)!)
On simplifications gives:
C(11, 4) = 330.
Calculate the probability:
Probability = Number of ways 4 oldest people selected / Total number of ways to select 4 people
Plugging the given data:
Probability = 1 / 330
Probability ≈ 0.00303 or 0.303%.
Therefore, the probability that the 4 oldest people in the group were selected is based on combinatorics is 0.00303 or 0.303%.

Apply the square root principle to solve (x-5)^2-40=0
Answer: {5 ± 2√10, 5 - 2√10}
Step-by-step explanation: First isolate the binomial squared by adding 40 to both sides to get (x - 5)² = 40.
Next, square root both sides to get x - 5 = ± √40.
Notice that root of 40 can be broken down to 2√10.
So we have x - 5 = ± 2√10.
To get x by itself, add 5 to both sides to get x = 5 ± 2√10.
So our answer is just {5 ± 2√10, 5 - 2√10}.
As a matter of form, the number will always come before the

What is the opposite of the opposite of negative 52?
Answer:
-52
Step-by-step explanation:
Think of it this way. Opposite means to take the negation. So we are taking the negation of the negation of negative 52. This means mathematically:
- ( - ( -52 ) ) == -52

If the random variable X is normally distributed with mean of 50 and standard deviation of 7, find the 9th percentile.
Answer:
The 9th percentile is 40.52.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that the random variable X is normally distributed with a mean of 50 and a standard deviation of 7.
Let X = the random variable
The z-score probability distribution for the normal distribution is given by;
Z = [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex] ~ N(0,1)
where, [tex]\mu[/tex] = population mean = 50
[tex]\sigma[/tex] = standard deviation = 7
So, X ~ Normal([tex]\mu=50, \sigma^{2} = 7^{2}[/tex])
Now, the 9th percentile is calculated as;
P(X < x) = 0.09 {where x is the required value}
P( [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex] < [tex]\frac{x-50}{7}[/tex] ) = 0.09
P(Z < [tex]\frac{x-50}{7}[/tex] ) = 0.09
Now, in the z table the critical value of x that represents the below 9% of the area is given as -1.3543, i.e;
[tex]\frac{x-50}{7}=-1.3543[/tex]
[tex]x-50=-1.3543 \times 7[/tex]
[tex]x=50 -9.48[/tex]
x = 40.52
Hence, the 9th percentile is 40.52.
A cubical sandbox has a volume of 91.125 cubic inches. What is the side length of the
sandbox?
Hey there! I'm happy to help!
To find the volume of a cube, you simply cube the side length (multiply it by itself three times). This is because all of the sides of a cube are the same and if you multiply the length by the width by the height it is the same number multiplied by itself three times.
We already know that the volume is 91.125 cubic inches. To find the side length, we simply do the cube root on our calculator, which tells us what number we cube to get 91.125.
∛91.125=4.5
Therefore, the side length of the sandbox is 4.5 inches.
I hope that this helps! Have a wonderful day! :D
