Answer:

Notebook is $4

Thumb drive is $23

Step-by-step explanation:

Let notebooks be x and thumb drives be y

6x+7y=$185

14x+12y=$332

These two are simultaneous equation. Multiplying the first equation by 7 and second by 3 we obtain

42x+49y=$1295

42x+36y=$996

Subtracting the third equation from the fourth

996-1295=-$299

(36-49)y=-23y

-23y=-$299

y=$299/13=$23

To get the value of x, we substitute the value of y into the first equation

6x+(7*23)=$185

6x=$185-$161

6x=$24

x=$4

Therefore, price of notebook is $4, price of thumb drive is $23

Kiley, Jermaine, and Gunther are playing tug-of-war. Kiley and Jermaine are on the same side of the rope, and Gunther is on the
Naya [18.7K]

First we define a reference system.

Let's assume the horizontal axis as positive towards the right.

Suppose Kiley and Jermaine pull the rope to the left, while Gunther pulls the rope to the right.

The equilibrium equation is given by:

-20 - 25 + F = 0

Where,

F: force with which Gunther pulls the rope.

Clearing F we have:

F = 20 + 25\\F = 45

The positive sign indicates that Gunther pulls to the right.

Answer:

A force that would result in a balanced force for the game is:

F = 45 N

Isolate for x, y = mx + b
zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

x = (y - b)/m

Step-by-step explanation:

Isolate the variable, x. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS.

First subtract b from both sides:

y = mx + b

y (-b) = mx + b (-b)

y - b = mx

Next, divide m from both sides:

(y - b)/m = (mx)/m

x = (y - b)/m

x = (y - b)/m is your answer.
