X = first venture, y = second venture, z = third venture
x + y + z = 15,000
x + z = y + 7000
3x + 2y + 2z = 39,000
these are ur equations.....
x + y + z = 15,000
x - y + z = 7000
--------------------add
2x + 2z = 22,000
x + y + z = 15,000....multiply by -2
3x + 2y + 2z = 39,000
-------------------
-2x - 2y - 2z = - 30,000 (result of multiplying by -2)
3x + 2y + 2z = 39,000
------------------add
x = 9,000
2x + 2z = 22,000
2(9000) + 2z = 22000
18,000 + 2z = 22000
2z = 22000 - 18000
2z = 4000
z = 4000/2
z = 2,000
x + y + z = 15,000
9000 + y + 2000 = 15,000
11,000 + y = 15,000
y = 15,000 - 11,000
y = 4,000
first venture (x) = 9,000 <==
second venture (y) = 4,000 <==
third venture (z) = 2,000 <==
Answer:
On the left... True
On the right... False
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
$20.15
Step-by-step explanation:
Given data
Original cost = $9.57
Markup= 95%
Let us find the new cost of the basket
=95/100*9.57
=0.95*9.57
=$9.0915
Hence the cost of the basket is
= 9.57+9.0915
=18.66
Also, the sales tax is 8%
=8/100*18.66
=0.08*18.66
=1.4928
Therefore, the total amount to be paid is
=18.66+1.4928
=$20.15
11/8 or 13/8 is the answer.
