Answer with explanation:</h2>
Let x denotes the number of days and y denotes the total change in gas price ( in dollars).
Given : During the past seven days the price of regular gas is decreased by $0.2 each day.
Rate of decrease =$0.2 per day
Then , Total change in gas price = Rate of decrease x Number of days
i.e.
i.e. 
(1)
To find the total change in gas price in 7 days , we put x= 7 in (1) , we get
Hence, the total change in gas price in 7 days = $1.4
7(3a + 12) = 168 ← ( divide both sides by 7 )
3a + 12 = 24 ← ( subtract 12 from both sides )
3a = 12 ← ( divide both sides by 3 )
a = 4
OR
distribute the parenthesis by 7
21a + 84 = 168 ← ( subtract 84 from both sides )
21a = 84 ← ( divide both sides by 21 )
a = 4
To find the first blank, just replace x in the equation with 12 and solve.
a(12) = 50 - 1.25(12) = your answer for blank 1
For blank 2: because x represents the number of apps on her phone, and x is given 12 for this problem, she bought 12 apps.
For blank 3: You would mention how many apps she got twice, so not the first option or the third option. It should be the answer from the first blank because the equation represents how much money is in her account.
Answer:
<h2>x=3/2, y=4</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
3y=6x+3
solve by substitution for 3y=6x+3
3y=4x+6
6x+3=4x+6
6x-4x=6-3
2x=3
<h2>x=3/2</h2>
3y=6x+3 ⇒ y=6x/3 + 3/3 ⇒ y=2x+1
y=2x+1 ( substitute x=3/2)
y=2(3/2)+1
y=3+1
<h2>y=4</h2>
Answer:
22/7 is not pi
Step-by-step explanation:
22/7 is just a close approximation for pi, not pi itself.
If you put 22/7 into a calculator, you get:
3.142857...
While the number pi itself is:
3.1415926...
You can notice that pi is actually different than 22/7, even though the two numbers start out the same and are close to each other. Frequently in geometry, you use 22/7 as pi because it's so close and makes calculation easier.
Hope this helps!
