A bag contains two steel balls and five brass balls. The total weight of the bag is 13 pounds. If two steel balls are added and

two brass balls are removed, the bag’s weight decreases to 12 pounds. If s is the weight of a steel ball and b is the weight of a brass ball, the system of linear equations representing this situation is . Solving the system of linear equations, the weight of a steel ball is , and the weight of a brass ball is . NextReset

x = the weight of one steel ball y = the weight of one brass ball 2x + 5y = 13 (2 + 2)x + (5 - 2)y = 12 by solving the above system of equations we find:

x = 1.5 lbs y =2 lbs one steel ball weighs 1.5 lbs.one brass ball weighs 2 lbs.

Ghella [55]

Answer:

Follows are the solution to the given point:

Step-by-step explanation:

In point a:

¬∃y∃xP (x, y)  

∀x∀y(>P(x,y))  

In point b:

¬∀x∃yP (x, y)

 ∃x∀y  ¬P(x,y)

In point c:

¬∃y(Q(y) ∧ ∀x¬R(x, y)) \equiv  ∀y(> Q(y) V ∀ ¬ (¬R(x,y)))

∀y(¬Q(Y)) V ∃xR(x,y) )

In point d:

¬∃y(∃xR(x, y) ∨ ∀xS(x, y))  

∀y(∀x>R(x,y)) \wedge ∃x>s(x,y))

In point e:

¬∃y(∀x∃zT (x, y, z) ∨ ∃x∀zU (x, y, z))

∀y(∃x ∀z)>T(x,y,z) \wedge ∀x ∃z> V (x,y,z))

What is percent of change $50 to $65
zzz [600]
You would do percent of change.
meaning you would subract 65 and 50 to get 15. then you would put 15 over 50 (as a fraction) then equals r/100. then you would cross multiply to get r.

orginal:50
new:65
65-50=15

15/50=r/100
15r=5000
then divide by 15 to get r

Find the percent of tip:
r-ruslan [8.4K]
The answer is 14%

Cost of meal is 100%:         $18.50 is 100%
Tip is x%:                             $2.59 is x

Make a proportion:
$18.50 : 100% = $2.59 : x
x = 100% * $2.59 : $18.50
x = 14%
