Answer:

  • 45 regular keyboards
  • 15 wireless keyboards

Step-by-step explanation:

A set of 3 regular and 1 wireless keyboard would sell for ...

  3×$83 +110 = $359

For the given sales, the number of sets sold was ...

  $5385/($359/set) = 15 sets

Since there are 3 regular keyboards in each set, there were 3×15 = 45 regular keyboards sold. The number of each type of keyboards sold is ...

  45 regular keyboards and 15 wireless keyboards

<em>Comment on this solution</em>

When a problem statement tells you the ratio of one kind of item to another, it is often convenient to group the items in that ratio and deal with the groups. Sometimes, there will be a few missing or left over, for example "10 more than 3 times as many." In those cases, you can make an adjustment to the total and still deal with the groups. (Any equations you might write will effectively do this same thing.)

Solve for x. Triangles below are similar. <br><br> a) 13<br> b) 10<br> c) 4<br> d) 3
Reptile [31]

Answer:

the answer is 4 (option C)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the triangles are similar, and in triangle UTV both sides are equal, we can consider QTR also has two equal sides.

therefore, the equation forms:

13x + 3 = 55

13x = 55 - 3

13x = 52

x = 52/13

x = 4

The slope of the line below is 2 use the coordinates of the labeled point to find a point slope equation of the line
yan [13]

Answer:

B.

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer is B. The problem says that the slope is 2 and it as the points (3,10) on its line. When looking at the graph, you can see that the line crosses at four on the y-intercept which is why four will be your constant. So, your equation in slope intercept form will become y=2x+4. With this, you can start eliminating the given answers.

You can immediately eliminate c and d because the 2 is negative when it isn't in its slope form. It leaves you with a and b.

When looking at both a and b you now have to look at what your y will become when you sinplify both of them. In choice a, the 2 multiplies with the 3 and gives you 6. Since you have to leave the y by itself you have to subtract 10 from both sides which will leave you with -4. Since your y-intercept isn't negative you know that a isnt the ansewr.

When checking b, you multiply the 2 and -3 to get -6. Since you have to leave the y by itself, you add 10 to each side and end up with 4 which is the same number that crosses the y-axis. and that is how you know it's the right answer.
