Tinkets:
4x = 30 \\ x = 7.5
now the next step
3x + 4y = 40
since you know x, you're able to substitute

3 \times (7.5) + 4y = 40 \\ 22.5 + 4y = 40 \\ 4y = 17.5 \\ y = 4.375
so trinket: $7.5
doodad: $4.375

Answer:

The cost of one trinket is $4 and the cost of one doodads is $7.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represents the cost of one trinket and y represents the cost of one doodads,

Since, $ 30 to make 4 trinkets and 2 doodads,

⇒ 4x + 2y = 30 ------- (1),

Also, $ 40 to make 3 trinkets and 4 doodads,

⇒ 3x + 4y = 40 ------- (2),

Equation (2) - 2 × Equation (1),

We get,

-5x = - 20

⇒ x = 4

From equation (1),

16 + 2y = 30

⇒ 2y = 14

⇒ y = 7

Hence, the cost of one trinket is $ 4 and the cost of one doodads is $ 7.

Can somebody help me with this? Thank you
melomori [17]

Answer:

x≥1 or x≤−3

Step-by-step explanation:

x+1≥2  possibility 1

x+1−1≥2−1  Subtract 1 from both sides

x≥1

x+1≤−2  Possibility 2

x+1−1≤−2−1  Subtract 1 from both sides

x≤−3

Erica solved the equation −5x − 25 = 78; her work is shown below. Identify the error and where it was made. (5 points)
NemiM [27]
If you would like to solve the equation -5x - 25 = 78, you should do this using the following steps:

<span>-5x - 25 = 78
</span>-5x - 25 + 25 = 78 + 25
-5x + 0 = 103
-5x = 103 /(-5)
x = 103 / (-5)
x = - 103/5 = - 20.6

The error was already made at step 1.

92.4 is 150% of what number?
Ad libitum [116K]
1. We assume, that the number 92.4 is 100% - because it's the output value of the task. 
<span>2. We assume, that x is the value we are looking for. </span>
<span>3. If 92.4 is 100%, so we can write it down as 92.4=100%. </span>
<span>4. We know, that x is 150% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=150%. </span>
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 92.4=100%
2) x=150%
where left sides of both of them have the same units, and both right sides have the same units, so we can do something like that:
92.4/x=100%/150%
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for what is 150% of 92.4

92.4/x=100/150
<span>(92.4/x)*x=(100/150)*x       - </span>we multiply both sides of the equation by x
<span>92.4=0.666666666667*x       - </span>we divide both sides of the equation by (0.666666666667) to get x
<span>92.4/0.666666666667=x </span>
<span>138.6=x </span>
x=138.6

<span>now we have: </span>
<span>150% of 92.4=138.6</span>
