x = number of packages he bought
y = number of popsicles in each package
Here are the two equations:
xy = 54
x = 3 + y
Using the substitution method, you can solve them to find x and y.
(3 + y)y = 54,
3y + y^2 = 54
y^2 + 3y - 54 = 0
Solve the quadriatic equation:
(y +9)(y - 6) = 0
y = -9, 6.
Plug y into: xy = 54
x(-9) = 54, x = -6.
x(6) = 54, x = 9.
So he bought 9 packages of popsicles, bc you can't bye -6 packages.
15/20 = 0.75
Each of the gift boxes will get 3/4 yard of ribbon. (.75)
Answer:
vertex form automatically gives you your vertex and your y intercept so all you need to do is graph. Hope this helps
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
6 = 14 - x
chance the equation around so it is solvable
14 - x = 6
14 - 6 = x
now solve
14 - 6 = 8
that means x equals 8 so
6 = 14 - 8
Answer:
6.42$
Step-by-step explanation:
6.00 divided by 100 equals 0.6 multiplied by 7 equals 0.42 so the sales tax is 0.42 cents and the total is 6.42$
