Answer: desktop = $1750, laptop = $1900
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Let x represent the cost of the desktop
then x + 150 is the cost of the laptop.
.07x + .055(x + 150) = 227
.07x + .055x + 8.25 = 227
.125x = 218.75
x = 1750
desktop (x) = $1750
laptop (x + 150) = $1750 + $150 = $1900
Y = 3/5x + b
3 = 3/5(-1) + b
3 = -3/5 + b, b = 3 3/5
Y = 3/5x + 3 3/5
I believe B. is your answer. If you use the ac method, you will multiply 8 and 3 which is 24. So now, what factors of 24 will give you 10?6 and 4
Now substitute

Now do factorization by grouping.

Therefore, your answer is (4x+3)2x+1)
Answer:
1. 1458
2. 500 or -500
Step-by-step explanation:
1. a4=54, a5=162
r = 162/54 = 3
a7 = a5 × r²
= 162 × 3² = 1458
2.a4=-4, a6=-100
r² = -100/-4 = 25
r = +/- 5
a7 = a6 × r
= -100 × +/- 5
= +/- 500
Answer: Ethan will have to spend 2 hours reading if 14 pages are left to read
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the equation
P=-30h+74
where p =number of pages left to read and
h= the number of hours he has spent reading
Therefore , if Ethan has 14 pages left to read, then the number of hours Ethan will have to read will be
P=-30h+74
14= -30h + 74
30h= 74-14
30h= 60
h = 60/30
h =2 hours
Ethan will have to spend 2 hours reading if 14 pages are left to read
