So first create and define your variables:
Z = amount of zebra fish
N = amount of neon tetras
Now create your equations:
2z+2.15n=31.20
z+n=15
This is your system. There are multiple methods to use but in this problem I’ll use the substitution method by simplifying the bottom equation.
2z+2.15n=31.20
z=15-n
Now I’ll plug the bottom equation into the top one.
2(15-n)+2.15n=31.20
And just solve from here.
30-2n+2.15n=31.20
0.15n=1.20
n=8
So he bout 8 neon tetras, and 15-8= 7, so he bought 7 zebra fish
To calculate to volume of a rectangular prism you use the formula l × w × h = V
l, w, and h are the sides, and V is the volume
So... 24 × 10 × h = 2,880
h = 2,880 / 240
h = 12
Answer:
The building is 187.5 feet tall.
Step-by-step explanation:
A nearby person is 6 feet tall, and casts a shadow that is 8 feet long.
This means that the relation between the real height and the shadow is given by:
![\frac{6}{8} = \frac{3}{4}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B6%7D%7B8%7D%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B3%7D%7B4%7D)
A tall building casts a shadow that is 250 feet long. How tall is the building?*
The real height is three fourths of the shadow. So
![\frac{3}{4}*250 = 187.5](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B3%7D%7B4%7D%2A250%20%3D%20187.5)
The building is 187.5 feet tall.
first you turn the fractions into inproper fractions by multiplying the whole number by the denomonator and adding the numerator
4×4=16
16+3=19
19/4
4×7=28
28+1=29
29/7
keep the denomonators the same. now that you've converted them into inproper fractions you can multiply them
19/4 × 29/7=551/28
there is no way to simplify this answer so this is the final answer
Answer:
y = x [1-
]
Step-by-step explanation:
If the variable x represents the employee's pay before tax-exempt expenses and taxes are removed and y variable represents the employee's take-home pay after these deductions and if fifteen percent of an employee's taxable income is collected each paycheck, then y is given by
y = x [1-
]. (Answer)
For, example, an employee's payment is deducted by $350 at the rate of 15% tax and other deduction.
Therefore,
, ⇒ x = $2333.33 is the before tax income of the person.
