Answer:

300 lbs

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that Larry bench pressed 200 lbs last week, and that he is supposed to increase by 15%. We know that any number times one is that same numbers. That means a number that is increaseing has to be greater than 1. So, we have to convert 15% into a decimal. That is 0.15. That plus one is 1.15. Now we just have to multiply 1.15 with 200. We get 300.

What is the solution of this system of linear equations?
creativ13 [48]

Answer: D

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the first equation. Subtract 3x from both sides.

y−3x=−2

Consider the second equation. Subtract x from both sides.

y−2−x=0

Add 2 to both sides. Anything plus zero gives itself.

y−x=2

To solve a pair of equations using substitution, first solve one of the equations for one of the variables. Then substitute the result for that variable in the other equation.

y−3x=−2,y−x=2

Choose one of the equations and solve it for y by isolating y on the left hand side of the equal sign.

y−3x=−2

Add 3x to both sides of the equation.

y=3x−2

Substitute 3x−2 for y in the other equation, y−x=2.

3x−2−x=2

Add 3x to −x.

2x−2=2

Add 2 to both sides of the equation.

2x=4

Divide both sides by 2.

x=2

Substitute 2 for x in y=3x−2. Because the resulting equation contains only one variable, you can solve for y directly.

y=3×2−2

Multiply 3 times 2.

y=6−2

Add −2 to 6.

y=4

The system is now solved.

y=4,x=2

A rectangular prism has volume 4,800 cubic yards, length 20 yards, and height 40 yards. Find its width, in yards.​
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer: 6 yards.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, multiply the length and the height to get 800. You know now that 800 times the width will be your volume, 4800. To find the width, divide the volume by 800, which is the length times the height. Check your work by doing 40 times 20 times 6. You get 4800, which is your volume, which means your correct!

What is the true solution In 20+In 5=2 In x?
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the rules of logarithms

• log x + log y ⇔ log(xy)

• logx^{n} ⇔ n log x

• log x = log y ⇒ x = y

Given

ln20 + ln5 = 2 lnx , then

ln(20 × 5) = lnx^{2}

ln 100 = lnx^{2}, hence

x² = 100 ( take the square root of both sides )

x = 10
