You want to go to the skate park, and you have two options:

Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

See Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Define the variables</u>

Let the entry fee be c and the hourly rate be m

Let the number of hours be x and the total amount be y

<u>Work to solve</u>

For Sami's skate

$c = 6$ and $m = 2$

For Brad's skate

$c =10$ and $m = 1$

<u>The equations</u>

The equation is derived using: $y = mx + c$

For Sami's skate

$y = 2x + 6$

For Brad's skate

$y = x + 10$

<u>When the cost are the same</u>

To do this, we equate both expressions

i.e.

$y = y$

$2x + 6 = x + 10$

$2x -x = 10 - 6$

$x = 4$

i.e. the cost are the same at the 4th hour

<u>What is the cost</u>

Substitute 4 for x in any of the equations

$y = x + 10$

$y = 4 + 10$

$y = 14$

<em>The cost is $14.00</em>

A bag contains white marbles and red marbles, 90 in total. The number of white marbles is 6 less than 5 times the number of red

Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

W = 72

Step by step explanation:

White = W

Red = R

W + R = 90

Write an equation

W = 5R - 6

Substitute

5R - 6 = 90

Add 6 to both sides of the equation

5R = 90

Simplify

90 ÷ 5 = 18

R = 18

90 - 18 = W

W = 72

Tasya [4]

At $7.50 per soccer ball, they earn a daily profit of $232.50.
The store needs to earn a daily profit of $400 – $232.50 = $167.50 from footballs.
Solve 167.50 = –4x2 + 80x – 150 to find the price for footballs: x = $5.46 and $14.54.
