A disc jockey must play 14 commercials during 1 hr of a radio show, each commercial is either 30 seconds or 60 seconds long if the total commercial time durring 1 hr is 11 min how many 30 sec commercials were played that hour?
x*30 + y*60 = 11*60 sec. x+y=14
x = 6, y = 8
so how many 30 sec commercials
6
what about 60 sec com
8
thank you can you help me with just a couple more please ?
if i could )
ok thank u :)
Snookers lumber can convert logds into either lumber or plywood in a given day the mill turns out twice as many units of plywood as lumber it makes a profit of $25 on a unit of lumber and $10 on a unit of plywood how many of each unit must be produced and sold in order to make a profit of 12750?
x*10 + y*25 = 12750 x=2y http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=x*10+%2B+y*25+%3D+12750%2C+x%3D2y so x = 1700/3, y = 850/3
SO HOW MUCH PLYWOOD AND HOW MUCH LUMBER
Oh, x is amount of PLYWOOD and y is amount of LUMBER
ok ty so much can u help me with a few more
let's try)
snookers lumber can convert logs into either lumber or plywood in a given day the mill turns out twice as many units of plywood as lumber it makes a profit of 30 dollars on a unit of lumber and 45 $ on a unit of plywood how many of each unit of lumber and units of plywood to make a profit of 12240?
another one im having a hard time with are 5x+5y=13 7x+89=y use substitution method
the other one is 8x-9y=24.5 7y-2x=8.5 what is the solution
I think nikita deserves a couple of medal here. :)
5x+5y=13 7x-2y+19 what is the solution type an ordered pair or integer or fraction simplify for all
5x-6y=16 7x+89=y what is the solution to the ordered pair use substitution method
x + y = 13/5 7x - y = 89 x + y = 13/5 6x + 0 = 89 -13/5 => x = (89 - 13/5)/6 y = 13/5 - x => y = 13/5 - (89 - 13/5)/6
is this for the word problems
it is for another one im having a hard time with are 5x+5y=13 7x+89=y use substitution method
for word problem : x*45 + y*30 = 12240 x=2y and x = 204, y = 102
ok so 204 stands for what and 102 is what
x is amount of PLYWOOD and y is amount of LUMBER
ty :)
