For this case, the first thing we must do is define variables:
x: number of pillowcases
y: number of sheets
We now write the system of equations:
2x + 5y = 40
x = 2y
Solving the system we have:
x = 8.9
y = 4.4
Answer:
The maximum number of pillowcases she could have purchased is:
x = 8 (spent less than $ 40)
Answer:
£38.48
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we have to find what 4% of 37 is, so our equation is:
37 x 0.04 = 1.48
Then we have to add that 4% to the original cost:
1.48 + 37 = 38.48
So the total price of the theatre ticket is £38.48
v + m = 32 and v = 5 + 2m are the equations that are used to determine m, the number of stuffed animals Mariposa has
Number of stuffed animals Mariposa has is 9 and number of stuffed animals with Veronica is 23
<h3>
<u>Solution:</u></h3>
Let "v" be the number of stuffed animals with Veronica
Let "m" be the number of stuffed animals with Mariposa
Given that,
Together, they have 32 stuffed animals
Therefore,
v + m = 32 --------- eqn 1
Veronica has 5 more than double the number of stutted animals as her friend Mariposa
Therefore,
Number of stuffed animals with Veronica = 5 + 2(number of stuffed animals with Mariposa)
v = 5 + 2m ---------- eqn 2
Thus eqn 1 and eqn 2 can be used to determine m, the number of stuffed animals Mariposa has
Let us solve eqn 1 and eqn 2
Substitute eqn 2 in eqn 1
5 + 2m + m = 32
5 + 3m = 32
3m = 32 - 5
3m = 27
<h3>m = 9</h3>
Substitute m = 9 in eqn 2
v = 5 + 2(9)
v = 5 + 18
<h3>v = 23</h3>
Thus number of stuffed animals Mariposa has is 9 and number of stuffed animals with Veronica is 23
Step-by-step explanation:
the area of a triangle is
baseline × height / 2
in our case
baseline × 5 / 2 = 20 in²
baseline × 5 = 40
baseline = 8 in
Line them up
3x3= 9, 3x2= 6, 3x5= 15
Add a 0 under the 9, 7x3= 21, leave the 1 and carry the 2, 7x2= 14+2= 16 leave the 6 and carry the 1, 7x5= 35+1= 36
9+0= 9, 6+1= 7, 5+6= 11 leave 1 carry 1, 1+6= 7+1= 8, 0+3= 3
