Answer:

  • 3 pounds at $3.87
  • 19 pounds at $0.94

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of pounds of high-priced jelly beans sold. Then the total revenue was ...

  3.87x + 0.94(22 -x) = 29.47

  2.93x + 20.68 = 29.47 . . . . . . eliminate parentheses, collect terms

  2.93x = 8.79 . . . . . . . . . . . . . .  subtract 20.68

  x = 3  . . . . . . . . . divide by 2.93

3 pounds of $3.87 jelly beans were sold; 19 pounds of $0.94 jelly beans were sold.

nignag [31]

Answer:

$46,000

Step-by-step explanation:

We just need to subtract all the annual payments from the salary to figure out her disposable income (which is the income remaining after deduction of taxes and social security charges).

So here's what we get

$60,000 - $3,000 - $5,000 - $6,000 = $46,000

Which expression has the same GCF as 15x2 - 21x?
Mice21 [21]

Answer:

15x^2 +21 x

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following expression:

15x^2 -21 x

We can find the GCF with the following steps.

1. Find the GCF for the numerical part 15 and -21

The factors for 15 are : 1,3,5,15

The factors for -21 are -21,-7,-3,-1,1,3,7,21

And the common factors are 1,3

The GCF for the numerical part is 3*1 = 3

2. Find the GCF for the variable

The factors of x^2 are : x*x

The factors of x are: x

The common factors are x for this case, so then the GCF for the variable part is x

3. Multiply the two results from steps 1 and 2

GCf= 3*x = 3x

If we consider the new expression:

15x^2 +21x

We can find the GCF with the following steps.

1. Find the GCF for the numerical part 15 and -21

The factors for 15 are : 1,3,5,15

The factors for -21 are 1,3,7,21

And the common factors are 1,3

The GCF for the numerical part is 3*1 = 3

2. Find the GCF for the variable

The factors of x^2 are : x*x

The factors of x are: x

The common factors are x for this case, so then the GCF for the variable part is x

3. Multiply the two results from steps 1 and 2

GCf= 3*x = 3x

And as we can see both GCF are equal. So then we satisfy the condition required.
