we have

x ----> number of hats the sold

y ----> number of scarves they sold

12x+15y=690 ------> equation A

y=x+10 -----> equation B

Solve the system of equations

Using substitution Method

substitute equation B in equation A

12x+15(x+10)=690

solve for x

12x+15x+150=690

27x=690-150

27x=540

x=20

Find out the value of y

y=x+10

y=20+10

y=30

therefore

The answer is

<h2>20 hats and 30 scarves</h2>

Create the equation of a parabola using the function h(t) = -16t2 + h0 where h(t) is the height (in feet) of an object thrown fr

butalik [34]

H(t)=-16t²+500
0=-16t²+500
16t²=500
t²=31.25
t=5.9 seconds before the object hits the ground

Solve for x*<br> (17x - 8)

djyliett [7]

Answer:x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

This triangle is an equilateral triangle with all angles equal.

Sum of angles in a triangle=180

17x-8+17x-8+17x-8=180

Collect like terms

17x+17x+17x-8-8-8=180

51x-24=180

51x=180+24

51x=204

Divide both sides by 51

51x/51=204/51

x=4

Simplify the following expression. show your work.<br> (-y + 5.3) + (7.2y - 9)

Kitty [74]

Answer:

6.2y - 3.7

Step-by-step explanation:

−y+5.3+7.2y−9

Subtract 9 from 5.3 to get −3.7.

−y−3.7+7.2y

Combine −y and 7.2y to get 6.2y.

6.2y−3.7
