X+ 1.5x - 4.5 = 5/2
2.5x - 4.5 = 5/2
2.5x = 5/2 + 4.5
2.5x = 7
x = 7/2.5

X = 2.8

Number of items sold by Shelley = 3 items.

Let us assume cost of each item sold by Shelley = $ x each.

Total cost of 3 items for Shelly sold = 3*x = 3x.

Number of items sold by Billy Bob = 4 items.

The cost of each item sold by Billy Bob = $2.25 less than the items that Shelley bought = $(x-2.25) each.

Total cost of 4 items for Billy Bob sold = 4*(x-2.25) = 4(x-2.25).

Both Shelley and Billy Bob paid the same amount of money. So, we can setup an equation now.

a) Total cost of 4 items for Billy Bob sold=Total cost of 3 items for Shelly sold.

4(x-2.25) = 3x

b) Solving equation for x now.

Distributing 4 over (x-2.25), we get

4x - 4*2.25 = 3x.

4x -9 = 3x.

Adding 9 on both sides, we get

4x -9+9 = 3x+9

4x =3x+9.

Subtracting 3x from both sides, we get

4x-3x =3x-3x+9.

x = 9.

c) Checking the solution of the equation by plugging x=9 in equation we got above.

4(x-2.25) = 3x => 4(9-2.25)= 3*9

=> 4*6.75 = 27

=> 27 = 27.

We got left side = right side. So the solution x=9 is correct.

d) The cost of each item sold by Billy Bob = 9-2.25 = $6.75

Therefore, the cost of each item sold by Shelley is $9 and cost of each item sold by Billy Bob is $6.75.

A pan is heated to 393°F, then removed from the heat and allowed to cool in a kitchen where the room temperature is a constant 6

deff fn [24]

Answer:

The approximate temperature of the pan after it has been away from the heat for 9 minutes is 275.59°F.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for D, the difference in temperature between the pan and the room after t minutes is:

$D = 324\cdot e^{-0.05t}$

Compute the approximate difference in temperature between the pan and the room after 9 minutes as follows:

$D = 324\cdot e^{-0.05t}$

$=324\times e^{-0.05\times 9}\\\\=206.59$

Then the approximate temperature of the pan after it has been away from the heat for 9 minutes is:

D = P - R

206.59 = P - 69

P = 206.59 + 69

P = 275.59°F

Thus, the approximate temperature of the pan after it has been away from the heat for 9 minutes is 275.59°F.

Help!! I cant figure this out for some reason

Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

x³ - 6x² + 18x - 10

Step-by-step explanation:

(f - g)(x) = f(x) - g(x)

= x³ - 2x² + 12x - 6 - (4x² - 6x + 4)

= x³ - 2x² + 12x - 6 - 4x² + 6x - 4 ← collect like terms

= x³ - 6x² + 18x - 10

Help me I have no idea how to do 18

sleet_krkn [62]

First, subtract px2 from both sides.

Now you have:

x3 - px2 = (1 - p) x1

Next, divide both sides by (1 - p)

So now you have

x3 - px2/(1 - p) = x1

...as your final answer

*You can decide if you want to leave the parenthesis in your final answer, I left them there so it could be visible where I put them. :)
