x+y=500
0.05x+0.085y=40

Multiply both sides of second equation by 20 to getx+1.7y=800
Subtract that from first equation to get 0.7y=300
Divide both sides by 0.7 to get y=428.571, so about $428.57 was spent in store. This leaves 500-428.57=$71.43 that was spent online

CAN SOMEONE HELP ME PLS AAAAA? Jason purchased a cell phone on sale for $100. He will pay a $25 monthly service for the line. Wr
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 25x +100

y- is the total money spent on the phone

x-is the number of months you had service

the relationship between x and y is proportional ( if x grows, y grows)

For example: after 2 months you would had payed $100 for the phone + the $25 each of the 2 months. y= 25*2 +100 = $150

Find the value of x if 212x5 is a multiple of 3 and 11 please find out now guys HELP!
sammy [17]

Answer:

x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

If the number 212x5 is a multiple of 3, the sum of the digits needs to be a multiple of 3, so we have:

2 + 1 + 2 + x + 5 = 10 + x

The value of x can be 2, 5 or 8

If the number is a multiple of 11, we have to calculate the first number minus the second, plus the third, minus the fourth... and so on, and the result needs to be a multiple of 11. So we have:

2 - 1 + 2 - x + 5 = 8 - x

x needs to be 8, so we have 8 - 8 = 0, that is a multiple of 11.

So the value of x is 8.

How to find the area of a sector with a sector angle of 72 degrees and a radius of 14 cm​
skad [1K]

Answer:

Exact area: 39.2π cm²

Approximate area: 123.2 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a circle is πr².

A full circle can be thought of as a sector of a circle with 360° of central angle. For a sector of a circle with a central angle of n°, multiply the area of the circle by the fraction n°/360°.

The formula for the area of a sector of circle with central angle n° and radius r is

A = (n°)/(360°) × πr²

Here we have n = 72; r = 14 cm

A = (n°)/(360°) × πr²

A = (72°)/(360°) × π × (14 cm)²

A = 39.2π cm² = 123.2 cm²
