Let the number be n.

Then 3n+5 = n+40
Combining like terms, we get

         2n = 35, and so n = 35/7, or 17 1/2.

2x^2-3x-9 please help
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]
Im assuming you mean 2x^2-3x-9=0 ?
If so, you have to factorise the equation
(2x-3) (x+3) = 0

2x - 3 = 0
2x = 3
x = 1.5

x + 3 = 0
x = -3

x is either 1.5 or -3

A sales person earns a commission based on the number and type of vehicle sold. A person selling 6 cars and 3 trucks earns 4,800
AURORKA [14]
Assign variables to you unknowns.

c = $ cars
t = $ trucks

6c + 3t = 4800
8c + t = 4600

use substitution or elimination to solve the system of equations.

using elimination.. multiply second equation by -3 and add to the other to combine equations into one.

6c + 3t = 4800
-3(8c + t = 4600)
---------------------------
-18c + 0 = -9000
c = 9000/18
c = 500 $

use this in one of the equations to find the cost of a truck.

8(500) + t = 4600
4000 + t = 4600
t = 4600 - 4000
t = 600 $

question asks
2(500) + 3(600) =
1000 + 1800 = 2800 $
