Two boys decided to buy a computer. The second boy had 5 6 of the money the first had. The first boy had 7 8 of the price of the
sdas [7]

Answer: The price for the computer = $1152

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the first boy = F

Let the second boy = S

Let the price of computer = C

The second boy had 5/ 6 of the money the first had. I.e

S = 5/6 F

Then F = 6/5S ......(1)

The first boy had 7 /8 of the price of the computer. That is

F = 7/8C ....... (2)

Substitute F in (1) into (2)

6/5S = 7/8C

S = 5/6 × 7/8C

S = 35/48C ......(3)

Together they had $696.00 more than they need to pay. That is

F + S = C + 696 ........ (4)

Substitute equation 2 and 3 into 4

7/8C + 35/48C = C + 696

0.875C + 0.729C = C + 696

0.604C = 696

C = 696/0.604

C = 1152 dollars

Therefore, the price for the computer = $1152

Determine whether the lines are parallel or perpendicular or neither. 2x=y−10 and y=−2x
MrRa [10]

Put the first equation in slope-intercept form, or y = mx + b. Start by subtracting y from both sides.

2x - y = -10, subtract 2x from both sides.

-y = -10 - 2x

Divide both sides by negative one.

y = 10 + 2x

To find the slope when the equations are in slope-intercept form you look at the coefficient of x. The first equation has the slope of 2 (which we just found), and the second equation has the slope of -2.

Parallel lines have the same slope and perpendicular lines have opposite reciprocal slopes. Since 2 and -2 are neither of these, your answer is neither.
