A sales associate in a department store earns a commission on each suit and each pair of shoes sold. One week, she earned $47 in

ahrayia [7]

For this one you have to make the equations. And what I like to do is write it out, like this.One Week- $473 suits 1 shoes (pairs)
Another Week- $1077 suits 2 shoes (pairs)
Then I make/choose my variables.For suits, it's going to be x.And For shoes let's do y.(Or if you would like better you can do x and y, which ever works best for you)
Now for the equations:One Week, 47= 3x +1yAnother Week, 107= 7x + 2y
Now it's time for the Substitution! Your last problem had it easier because it was already in the form, y=mx+b, but since ours aren't we have to change it to y=mx+b.
One Week, -0.33y + 15.67 =x Another Week, -0.29y + 15.29 =x
Now you can use substitution. :)For y i got 9.5 or 9.50.For x, i got 12.34
So the answer is (9.5,12.34) or (12.34, 9.5)

The lung capacity of the blue whale is 5100L. Convert this volume into gallons. Express your answer to two significant figures a

Vedmedyk [2.9K]

By definition, we have that the conversion of a US gallon to liters is given by:
1 liter = 3.78541 gallons
Therefore, we can apply the following rule of three:
1 liter ---------------------> 3.78541 gallons
5100 liters --------------> x
Clearing x we have:
$x = (5100) * (3.78541)

x = 19305.591$
two significant figures:
$x = 19000
$
Answer:
The lung capacity of the blue whale is:
$x = 19000 gallons$
