Since y=y. set the equations equal to each then solve
2x + 1 = -x + 4
+x +x
3x + 1 = 4
-1 -1
3x = 3
/3 /3
x = 1
Answer:
Suppose that the wholesale of a bike is A (A is the 100% in this case). If we have an increase of 30% for the sale price, we have the new price of:
Price = A + (30%/100%)A = A + 0.3*A = (1.3)*A
Then if we know that the price tag of the bike is $125, then we have:
$125 = (1.3)*A
$125/1.3 = A = $96.15
The wholesale cost of the bike is $96.15
I believe the answer is y = -5/2x + 6
there is no answer to this so i can't help you.?
Step-by-step explanation:
I assume you meant :
the restaurant has 20 1/2 pounds of bananas.
one smoothie uses 1/8 pound of bananas.
how many smoothies can be made with the amount of available bananas ?
the answer is as many as the times 1/8 fit into 20 1/2.
so, we actually calculate
(20 1/2) / (1/8)
first we will convert the mixed number into a true fraction :
20 1/2 = 40/2 + 1/2 = 41/2
so we have
41/2 / 1/8
and then, when dividing fractions we have 2 choices (they do both the same, of course, but start looking differently) :
a/b / c/d = a×d / b×c
a/b / c/d = a/b × d/c = a×d / b×c
so,
41/2 / 1/8 = 41×8 / 2×1 = 41×4 = 164
they can make 164 smoothies.
