12000 = 2x - 1500
12000 + 1500 = 2x
13500 = 2x
13500/2 = x
6750 = x <=== original price

Answer:

Original price of the boat will be $6750

Step-by-step explanation:

The selling price of a classical speedboat is = $12000

Let the original price of this boat = $x

As per statement given

"Selling price of the boat is $1500 less than twice of its original price"

Selling price of the boat = $(2x - 1500)

OR, $12000 = $(2x - 1500)

12000 + 1500 = 2x

2x = 13500

x = \frac{13500}{2}

  = 6750

Therefore, original price of the speedboat will be $6750.

Y = –5x + 30<br> x = 10<br> What is the solution to the system of equations?
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

x=10, y = -20

Step-by-step explanation:

y = –5x + 30

x = 10

Substitute the second equation into the first

y = –5*10 + 30

y = -50 +30

y = -20

x=10, y = -20

Please help me with either one, (all both) I’ve been struggling with this
Sholpan [36]

Answer:

x = 12, x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The 2 legs of the triangle are congruent, both 2x + 7, then

2x + 7 + 2x + 7 + x + 11 = 85 ← equation for perimeter

5x + 25 = 85 ( subtract 25 from both sides )

5x = 60 ( divide both sides by 5 )

x = 12

-----------------------------------------------------------

Opposite sides are congruent, then

2(2x) + 2(5x + 3) = 104 ← distribute and simplify both sides

4x + 10x + 6 = 104

14x + 6 = 104 ( subtract 6 from both sides )

14x = 98 ( divide both sides by 14 )

x = 7
