Try comparing your solution with the following:

Solution:

$2(10-13x)+9x=-34x+60\\(20-26x)+9x=-34x+60\\20-26x+9x=-34x+60\\20-17x=-34x+60\\20-60=-34x+17x\\-40=-17x\\x=\frac{40}{17}$

Answer:

$x=\frac{40}{17}$

Check:

$2[10-13(\frac{40}{17})]+9(\frac{40}{17})=-34(\frac{40}{17})+60\\-20=-20$

You buy 1 1/4 yards of fabric and $8 clothing pattern. Your total cost with a 6% sales tax added is $18.55. What is the cost per

Anna35 [415]

Answer: The fabric costs $7.60 per yard.

Step-by-step explanation: First we can divide it by 106 then multiply it by 100 to get rid of the 6% sales tax, which now the cost of the stuff is $17.50.

Next, we subtract 8 from this to represent the clothing pattern cost. Now it is $9.50.

The last stap to this is to divide it by 1 1/4 to get the final cost per yard:

The fabric costs $7.60 per yard.

When the points below are connected, they will form triangle ABC. Show and state whether this triangle has a right angle or not.

cluponka [151]

Answer:

See explanartions below

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the coordinates A(-6,3) B(0,5) C(2,-1)

We first need to get the slope of AB, BC and AC

For AB;

A(-6,3) B(0,5)

Mab = 5-3/0-(-6)

Mab = 2/6

Mab = 1/3

For BC;

B(0,5) C(2,-1)

Mbc = -1-5/2-0

Mbc = -6/2

Mc = -3

For AC:

A(-6,3) C(2,-1)

Mac = -1-3/2-(-6)

MAc = -4/8

Mac = -1/2

Taking the product of Mab and Mbc

Mab * Mbc = 1/3 + -3

Mab * Mbc = -1

<em>Since the product of Mab and Mbc is -1, hence AB abd BC are perpendicular showing that one of the angle of triangle ABC is 90 degrees</em>

The break even point is the point at which income equals expenses. Ridgemont High School is paying $13,200 for thr writing and r

Nikolay [14]

Answer:880

Step-by-step explanation: They need to cover expense of $13200. If printing fee is $25 and they sell the books for $40 each, then that means when selling a book they cover expense of printing plus they earn $15 per book.

So if they earn $15 per book that means they have to sell 13200/15=880 books to break even.

If you want to solve this by using equation the this would look like this:

expenses: $13200 + $25x where x is number of books sold

earnings: $40x

Equation:

13200+25x=40x

13200=15x

x=880
