Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
You should know that quotient is the result of division.
n/2
Four less than that would be subtracting.
(n/2) - 4 = 9
Answer:
mx is your slope and b is your y-intercept

Answer:
a) 4 people ordered streak dinner
b) 3 people ordered chicken dinner
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of people that ordered steak dinner be x
and the number of people that ordered chicken dinner be y
From the question,
There are 7 people in your family
Hence, we can write that
x + y = 7 ...... (1)
Also from the question
Some order the chicken dinner for $13 and some order the steak dinner for $18 and the total bill was $111.
We can then write that
13y + 18x = 111 ...... (2)
From equation (1)
x + y = 7
Then,
x = 7 - y ...... (3)
Put this into equation (2)
13y + 18x = 111
13y + 18(7 - y) = 111
13y + 126 - 18y = 111
-5y = -15
5y = 15
y = 15 / 5
y = 3
Put the value of y into equation (3) to get x
x = 7 - y
Then
x = 7 - 3
x = 4
Hence, 4 people ordered streak dinner
and 3 people ordered chicken dinner
a) 4 people ordered streak dinner
b) 3 people ordered chicken dinner
Answer:
- $8000 at 1%
- $2000 at 10%
Step-by-step explanation:
It often works well to let a variable represent the amount invested at the higher rate. Then an equation can be written relating amounts invested to the total interest earned.
__
<h3>setup</h3>
Let x represent the amount invested at 10%. Then 10000-x is the amount invested at 1%. The total interest earned is ...
0.10x +0.01(10000 -x) = 280
<h3>solution</h3>
Simplifying gives ...
0.09x +100 = 280
0.09x = 180 . . . . . . . subtract 100
x = 2000 . . . . . . divide by 0.09
10000 -x = 8000 . . . . amount invested at 1%
<h3>1.</h3>
$8000 should be invested in the 1% account
<h3>2.</h3>
$2000 should be invested in the 10% account
The mixed number would be 1 and 1/2.
