Answer:
x=4
Step-by-step explanation:
x=0 is an undefined slope(straight line vertically)
We need the line to pass through the point (4,3)
So, we just take the x coordinate from the equation and make it also have an undefined slope.
x = 4
Given:
First side(A): 2B - 7
Second side(B): B
Third side(C): B + 4
Plug in values:
A + B + C = 80
2B - 7 + B + B + 4 = 80
If you look at the coefficients only, you can rewrite the equation like this:
2B + B + B - 7 + 4 = 80
This means that 4B - 7 + 4 = 80
=4B - 3 = 80
= 4B = 80 + 3
B = 83/4, so you can either write B as 83/4 or as 20.75.
Checking your work:
A: 2(20.75) - 7 = 34.5
B: 20.75
C: 4 + 20.75 = 24.75
34.5 + 20.75 + 24.75 = 80cm.
Hope this helped.
Answer:
$275
Step-by-step explanation:
So she put $60 into savings....
X is the amount of her paycheck...
after buying the clothes she had X-75
She spend (2/5)(x-75) on books
The amount deposited into saving and spent on groceries totals 120.
So
X = 75 + (2/5)(x-75) + 120
X = (2/5)(X-75) + 195
X = (2/5)X - 30 + 195
X = (2/5)X + 165
(3/5)X = 165
X = 165*5/3 = 5*55 = 275
Starts with 275
spent 75 on clothes, which makes it 200.
2/5 of 200 is 80, which makes it 120.
60 deposited into savings and 60 on groceries
Her paycheck was 275
