Answer:

The answer is 20 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p represent the number of pounds.

UPS charges $7 for the first pound, and $0.20 for each additional pound.

FedEx charges $5 for the first pound and $0.30 for each additional pound.

To know the number of pounds it will take for UPS and FedEx to cost the same, we will equal both the equations.

=>

=>

=> p = 20

Hence, it will take 20 pounds to make both equal.

Can anybody help me with this?
Anika [276]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

it's 12 by 10, 12 x 10 = 120. because it's a triangle, you divide 120 by 2.

120 / 2 = 60. therefore the area of the triangle is 60. I also don't know the unit im supposed to use. is it centimeters? inches? miles?

Simplify<br>1)5x+3=x+13<br>2)5/2x-1/X =1/6​
Artyom0805 [142]

Step-by-step explanation (Question 1):        

<u>Step 1: (Question 1): Subtract x from both sides.</u>

5x+3=x+13

5x+3−x=x+13−x

4x+3=13

<u>Step 2: (Question 1): Subtract 3 from both sides.</u>

4x+3−3=13−3

4x=10

<u>Step 3: (Question 1): Divide both sides by 4.</u>

4x/4 = 10/4

FIRST ANSWER: x = 5/2

Step-by-step explanation (Question 2):      

<u>Step 1: (Question 2): Multiply by LCM</u>

15x^2 - 6 = x

<u>Step 2: (Question 2): Solve 15x^2</u>

15x^2 - 6 = x:

x = 2/3

x = -3/5

<u>Step 3: (Question 2): Solve</u>

ANSWER: x=0.666667 or x=−0.6

See Attachment 1 for question 1 steps (FULL)

See Attachment 2 for question 2 steps (FULL)

Answer:    

1)   x = 5/2

2)  x=0.666667 or x=−0.6

 

Hope this helps.

1).  $2,700 is  (2,700/6,000) = 45% of  6,000.

      It took 6 years to earn it, so it earned (45%/6) = 7.5% each year.
      That's the simple-interest rate.
_________________________________

2).  The investment earns 4.5% each year, so it earned 9% in 2 years.

      The $1,150.65 is the 9% of the original investment.  Call it V.

      1150.65 = 0.09 x V .

Divide each side by 0.09 :

         V  =  1150.65 / 0.09  =  $12,785 .

3).  There are 18 marbles in the bag all together.

a).  8 of them are green.  If you close your eyes and pull out 1 marble,
the probability that it's a green one is
                                                               8/18 = 4/9  =  44.4% .

b).  If it was a red marble, and you put it in your pocket, then
there are only 17 in the bag now, and 8 of them are still green.

If you pull another one, the probability that it's green is

                                                               8/17  =  47.1% .
____________________________________

5).  There are 10 marbles in the bag all together.
(The second sentence doesn't say anything, and doesn't mean anything.)

If you pull out a silver marble and put it in your pocket, then
there are 9 marbles in the bag, and 2 of them are orange.

The probability of pulling an orange marble now is

                                  2/9  =  22.2% .
