90 = 30+10+3x

This equation shows that all the prices of the the bag, eraser, and pencils equals $90. So now all we have to do to find the price of a pencil is solve the equation.

First add the 30 and 10 together.

90 = 40+3x

Then subtract 40 from each side

50 = 3x

Lastly divide each side by 3

x = 16.67

The price per pencil is $16.67

Hope this helps!

Well if Jason bought a bag for $30, and an eraser for $10, that will equal $40. So he has $50 left. So you divide by 3. 50÷3=16.66. So each pencil costs $16.66.
16.66. 49.98
× 3. + 40. 89.98 rounded up equals 90
--------- ----------
49.98. 89.98

If 6.45 is supposed to be miles
6.45 miles = 10380.269 metres
10380.269+15+500=10,895.269
but that is only if the 6.45 is in miles

A method for determining whether a critical point is a minimum. True or false?
natita [175]

Answer:

We can find if a critical point is a local minimum or maximum by looking at the second derivatives.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you take the first derivative, you will find the slope at the given point, which if it is a minimum or a maximum will be 0.

Then we take the second derivative. If that number is a positive number, then we have a local minimum. If it is a negative number, then it is a local maximum.
