Answer:
friday
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be equal to the number of drinks Yasmine consumed.
Jose had 2 times that drink so his number of consumed drink would be represented by 2x.
Sally had 3 fewer drink than Jose so her number of consumed drinks would be represented by 2x-3.
Altogether, the three of them consumed 72 drinks so your equation would be:
x+2x+(2x-3)=72
add like terms together:
5x-3=72
have the term with x be alone on one side of the equation, in this case by adding three to both sides:
5x=75
now divide both sides by five for the value of x and your answer is.....
x=15
Answer: The total percentage loss would be 67%.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have given that
Rate of decline each year = 20%
Number of years = 5
We need to find the total percentage loss in value of the house at the end of 5 years.
So, Total percentage loss would be
Hence, the total percentage loss would be 67%.
Answer:
Venus fly trap = 12
Bonsai tree = 17
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that :
Venus fly trap = $3per plant
Bonsai tree = $5 per plant
Number of plants sold = 29
Total cost of plant sold = $121
Let venus fly trap = x ; bonsai tree =y
x + y = 29 ___ (1)
3x + 5y = 121 ____(2)
From (1) :
x = 29 - y
In (2):
3(29 - y) + 5y = 121
87 - 3y + 5y = 121
87 + 2y = 121
2y = 121 - 87
2y = 34
y = 34/2
y = 17
x = 29 - 17
x = 12
Hence,
Venus fly trap = 12
Bonsai tree = 17
