Answer:
1.5x = 7.5 (a)
Step-by-step explanation:
If Billy has $7.50 remaining, then he can buy x no. of boxes.
Each box costs $1.50
So, 1.5x = 7.5
x²-6x=0
x(x-6)=0
Two solutions are possible:
x=0
x=6
Answer:
w = 6
RS = 13
Step-by-step explanation:
RS + ST = RT
(2w + 1) + (w - 1) = 18
3w = 18
; w = 6
Hence the value of RS = 2(6) + 1
; RS = 13
AC = AB + BC
56 = (x + 16) + (5x + 10)
56 = 6x + 26....then rearrange the equation to form...;
56 - 26 = 6x
30 = 6x...
where...; x = 5
AB = 5 + 16 and BC = 5(5) + 10
;AB = 21 ;BC = 35
