Their selling price was 2.45 times the price they bought it. If they split the profit evenly and there was two of them, multiply their profit by two and divide that number by 800 to find how much more they sold it for, so they sold it for 245% more than they bought it

Answer:

21

Step-by-step explanation:

I shall change the pictures to letters

a + a + b = 40 --(1)

b - c = 7 --(2)

c + a = 19 --(3)

a - c + b = ?

From (1):

2a + b = 40

b = 40 - 2a --(4)

From (2):

b = 7 + c --(5)

Sub (4) into (5):

40 - 2a = 7 + c

c = 33 - 2a --(6)

Sub (6) into (3):

33 - 2a + a = 19

a = 14

Sub a = 14 into (4) and (6):

b = 40 - 2(14) = 12

c = 33 - 2(14) = 5

therefore, a - c + b = 14 - 5 + 12 = 21

Ariana plans to use $260 less than three-fourths of savings to buy a car. If the purchase price of the car is 9,340, how much do
tangare [24]

She has $12,488 in savings

Step-by-step explanation:

Ariana plans to use $260 less than three-fourths of savings to buy a car.

If the purchase price of the car is 9,340, we need to find how much

she has in savings

To find the savings

  • Assume that she has $x in savings
  • Write an equation of x
  • Solve the equation to find x

∵ She has $x in savings

∵ She plans to use $260 less than three-fourths of savings

- Three-fourths means \frac{3}{4} and less than means subtract

∴ She plans to use \frac{3}{4} x - 26

∵ The purchase price of the car is 9,340

- Equate the expression of x by 9,340

∴ \frac{3}{4} x - 26 = 9,340

Now let us solve the equation

∵ \frac{3}{4} x - 26 = 9,340

- Add 26 to both sides

∴ \frac{3}{4} x = 9,366

- Divide both sides by \frac{3}{4}

∴ x = $12,488

She has $12,488 in savings

27 Solve for x to the nearest tenth: x² + x - 5 = 0.
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the quadratic formula to get the answer to this

Quadratic Formula: -b +- √b² - 4ac/2a

Once we input A, B, and C into this, and solve any multiplication, we get

x = -1  +- √1 + 20/2

We divide by 2a, which 2a = 2.

-0.5 +- 10.5.

these are the following values of x:

x = 10

x = 11

Pretty sure this is it, hope it helps!
