Substitute y = 3x + 15 to the equation -4x + 7y = 20:

-4x + 7(3x + 15) = 20          <em>use distributive property</em>

-4x + (7)(3x) + (7)(15) = 20

-4x + 21x + 105 = 20     <em>subtract 105 from both sides</em>

17x = -85     <em>divide both sides by 17</em>

x = -5

Substitute the value of x to the equation y = 3x + 15:

y = 3(-5) + 15

y = -15 + 15

y = 0

<h3>Answer: x = -5 and y = 0</h3>

Answer:

area = 22,272

Step-by-step explanation:

area = length * width

to calculate the width, we need the first segment using the pythagorean theorem

87^{2} + x^{2} = 145^{2}

7569 + x^{2}  = 21025

x^{2} = 13456

x = 116

length = 116 + 140 = 256

so

area = 87 * 256 = 22,272

D is wrong because 4th one is 10 for A and 13 for B. 10 is not greater than 13

3(x - 2) + 48 = -3x
kow [346]

Answer: X=-7

Step-by-step explanation:

Using PEMDAS;

Step 1: Distribute the "3" in the part of the equation "3(x-2)"

3x - 6

Step 2: Consider the equation as a whole with the newly part of the equation from step 1, as it is a part of the equation

Therefore, re-written as,

3x - 6 + 48 = -3x

Step 3: Evaluate the re-written equation

Using basic mathematics skills, we can evaluate the following,

3x - 6 + 48 = -3x ➡ -6 + 48 = -6x ➡ 42 = -6x ➡ -7 = x

As shown, the answer is x=-7.

<h3>Answer: 13,011.11 dollars</h3>

note: remember to take the comma out or ignore it. I put it in there to help make the number more readable

===========================================

Explanation:

Let x be the value of the sale in dollars.

x-1900 represents the leftover amount that is over 1900

eg: if x = 2200, then x-1900 = 2200-1900 = 300 is the the leftover amount

taking 9% of (x-1900) leads to the expression 0.09(x-1900) and this expression must be 1000 since this is the extra amount of money the salesman needs (he already has $1000 in base pay)

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

Solve for x

0.09(x-1900) = 1000

x-1900 = 1000/0.09

x-1900 = 11,111.11111 approximately

x = 11,111.11111 + 1900

x = 13011.1111

x = 13,011.11 rounding to the nearest cent
