Answer:
$2.25
Step-by-step explanation:
You can find the answer by setting up a simple equation.
Brand X is 1.65 for 11 ounces
we can find the cost of one ounce of Brand X by using division
1.65/11
.15
this means that for every ounce of Brand X, it costs 15 cents
Since brand Y costs two cents more per ounce that would make it be 17 cents per ounce
now all you need to do is multiply and solve.
.15 * 15 = $2.25
You have to isolate x. First you start off by adding the like terms which is -3x and -x. By adding them you get -4x.
8 - 4x = 12
Then you subtract 8 on both sides since it is positive to isolate x.
-4x = 4
Then you divide -4 by both sides and get x=4/-4
4/-4 is simplified to -1 so the answer is x= -1
It wouldn't let me post, so I screenshotted:
X^2-14x+49=0
Factor
(x-7)(x-7)
Check
-7-7=-14
-7*-7=49
Use ZPP
x-7=0
x=7
Final answer: x=7
I think it’s (3,4) the third answer
