Each variable used is the first letter of each of their names.

t+b+c=87
c=2t
b=t+7

Substitute for b and c
t+ (t+7)+2t= 87
4t+7=87
4t=80
t=20

Plug in the known t value.
c=2(20)
c=40

b=20+7
b=27

Final answer: Tammy=$20, Boris= $27, Carlos=$40

Find the value of c such that y= x + c is a tangent to the parabola y = x squared - x - 12

Bond [772]

Answer:

c = –13

Step-by-step explanation:

by property of tangent line, equation

x² – x – 12 = x + c

x² – 2x – 12 – c = 0

has only one solution, which mean

– 12 – c = 1

c = –13

the initial price of a home entertainment system is $34,000. It is discounted by 10% and then by a further 26%. Find the price o

maria [59]

The final price of the item is $22,644

The initial discount of 10% leaves the price at 90% of the retail value:
$\frac{x}{34000} = \frac{90}{100}$
cross multiply to solve for x:
100x = 3,060,000
x = 30,600
This new price is then discounted 26%, which means the final price is 74% of $30,600:
$\frac{x}{30600} = \frac{74}{100}$
cross multiply to solve for x:
100x = 2,264,400
x = 22,644
The final price of the home entertainment system is $22,644
