Sarah charges $6.00 for one bracelet.

We know that a collection of one or more linear equations containing the same variables is known as a system of linear equations in mathematics.

Let Sarah charges $x and $y for one bracelet and one ring respectively.

Since her first customer spends $48 on 3 bracelets and 10 rings, we can write it as

3x + 10y = 48 ...(1)

Since her second customer spends $54 on 7 bracelets and 4 rings, we can write it as

7x + 4y = 54 ...(2)

Now, we have to solve this system of linear equations.

Multiplying (1) by 2, 6x + 20y = 96 ...(3)

Multiplying (2) by 5, 35x + 20y = 270 ...(4)

Subtracting (3) from (4), 35x + 20y - 6x - 20y = 270 - 96

i.e. 29x = 174

i.e. x = 174/29 = 6

Therefore we can conclude that Sarah charges $6 for one bracelet. Option B is correct.

Do any of you know how to easily and properly convert a mixed fraction to a decimal?​
arlik [135]

Answer:

Here's a 2 step conversion.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Convert the fraction to a decimal: Divide the numerator by the denominator

2. Add this decimal number to the whole number part of the mixed number

A mixed number is a whole number plus a fraction. To find the decimal form of a fraction just divide the numerator by the denominator using a calculator or long division. Then add the decimal number to the whole number.

Example: Convert the mixed number 7 1/4 to a decimal

Convert the fraction to a decimal: Divide 1 by 4

1 ÷ 4 = 0.25

Add 0.25 to the whole number 7:

7 + 0.25 = 7.25

Solve for q. √3q + 2 = √5
34kurt

Answer:

q = 0.0186

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for q, we initially place everything with the term q to one side of the equality, and everything without the term q to the other side of the equality.

So

\sqrt{3q} + 2 = \sqrt{5}

\sqrt{3q} = \sqrt{5} - 2

We find the square of both sides of the equation. So

(\sqrt{3q})^{2} = (\sqrt{5} - 2)^{2}

3q = 0.0557

q = \frac{0.0557}{3}

q = 0.0186

What is the surface area of the prism? A rectangular prism with a length of 3 meters, width of 4 meters, and height of 2 meters.
Naddik [55]

Answer:

52m²

Step-by-step explanation:

For this you would consider each face of the figure as a rectangle, and then multiply it by two.

Face 1:

3m×4m×2=24m²

Face 2:

4m×2m×2=16m²

Face 3:

3m×2m×2=12m²

Then you add each of them together to get the overall surface area

12m²+16m²+24m²=52m²

Therefore the final surface area is 52m²
