The weight of the math and the history book are 72 and 96 ounces respectively.

<h3>How to find the weight of a book?</h3>

A history book weights 24 oz more than a math book.

Therefore,

let

x = weight of math book

weight of history book = 24 + x

The math book is 75% the weight of the history book.

Therefore,

math book weight = 75 / 100 (24 + x)

x = 75 / 100 (24 + x)

x = 1800 + 75x / 100

100x =  1800 + 75x

100x - 75x =  1800

25x = 1800

x = 1800 / 25

x = 72

Therefore,

weight of math book = 72 ounces

weight of history book = 72 + 24 = 96 ounces.

What is the slope of a line that is perpendicular to the line whose equation is 7x−3y=107x−3y=10?
Verdich [7]
This is the concept of algebra, to get the slope of the line we need to rewrite the equation in slope intercept form y=mx+c, where m=slope, c=y-intercept.
Therefore re-writing our expression in slope-intercept form we get:
7x-3y=10
-3y=-7x+10
y=7/3x-10/3
The slope=7/3
hence we conclude that the slope of the line perpendicular to this is -3/7

4. A store had 86 DVDs and 52 CDs. When the equal number of DVDs and CDs were sold,
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

51 DVDs

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of DVDs and CDs sold be x each.

<u>Initial</u>

Number of DVDs= 86

Number of CDs= 52

<u>After selling</u>

Number of DVDs= 86 -x

Number of CDs= 52 -x

Given that there are 3 times as many DVDs than CDs left,

86 -x= 3(52 -x)

<em>Expand:</em>

86 -x= 156 -3x

<em>Bring x terms to 1 side, constant to the other:</em>

3x -x= 156 -86

<em>Simplify:</em>

2x= 70

<em>Divide both sides by 2:</em>

x= 35

Amount of DVDs left

= 86 -x

= 86 -35

= 51
