Answer:

You charge 4.6 cents the customer for nails.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :The hardware store where you work charges .80 cents including tax for a pound of nails.

To Find : A customer purchases 5\frac{3}{4} pounds of nails. how much should you charge the customer for nails?

Solution:

Cost of 1 pound of nails including tax = 0.80 cents

Cost of  5\frac{3}{4} pounds of nails:

=0.80 \times 5\frac{3}{4}

=0.80 \times \frac{23}{4}

=4.6

Hence you charge 4.6 cents the customer for nails.

<h3>Answer: angle 1 (choice A)</h3>

This is because angles 1 and 4 are vertical angles. Such angles form whenever we have an X shape like this. Vertical angles are always opposite one another and they are always the same measure. The fact that lines k and l are parallel has no relevance (so they could easily be not parallel and the two angles mentioned are still congruent).

Alona [7]

Answer:

outer ring worth 14 pts

bull's-eye worth 74.333333 pts

Step-by-step explanation:

let the worth point of landing an arrow on the outer ring be "x" and on bull's eye be "y"

For amelia

3x + 3y = 267

For joey

4x + 3y = 281

<em>s</em><em>u</em><em>b</em><em>t</em><em>r</em><em>a</em><em>c</em><em>t</em><em>i</em><em>n</em><em>g</em><em> </em><em>t</em><em>h</em><em>e</em><em> </em><em>f</em><em>i</em><em>r</em><em>s</em><em>t</em><em> </em><em>e</em><em>q</em><em>u</em><em>a</em><em>t</em><em>i</em><em>o</em><em>n</em><em> </em><em>f</em><em>r</em><em>o</em><em>m</em><em> </em><em>t</em><em>h</em><em>e</em><em> </em><em>s</em><em>e</em><em>c</em><em>o</em><em>n</em><em>d</em>

x = 14

3x + 3y = 267

42 + 3y = 267

3y = 223

y = 74.333

A store sold 2.5 times as many footballs as basketballs last year. What is the number of footballs sold for every basketball sol
bixtya [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You aren't able to figure out an exact number of either footballs or basketballs because you don't have enough information for that, but you do have enough to get an expression for one in terms of the other, which I imagine is the point here.  We know that for every 1 basketball sold, we sold 2.5 footballs, so the algebraic expression for that is

1 bball = 2.5 fballs

This gives us the number of bballs in terms of fballs but we want the number of fballs in terms of bballs, so solve that expression for fballs:

1 fball = 1/2.5 bballs

or, in words, for every single football sold, 2/5 of a basketball was sold.  Sounds silly, but I think your teacher is trying to get you to figure out how to express one thing in terms of another so you can use the expressions in solving story problems.

Question 10 The hypotenuse of a right triangle is I m longer than the longer leg. The other leg is 7 m shorter than the longer l
bonufazy [111]

Answer:

5, 12, 13

Step-by-step explanation:

let x be the longer leg then x + 1 is the hypotenuse and x - 7 the shorter leg

Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle

x² + (x - 7)² = (x + 1)² ← expand using FOIL

x² + x² - 14x + 49 = x² + 2x + 1

2x² - 14x + 49 = x² + 2x + 1 ( subtract x² + 2x + 1 from both sides )

x² - 16x + 48 = 0 ← in standard form

(x - 4)(x - 12) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x - 4 = 0 ⇒ x = 4

x - 12 = 0 ⇒ x = 12

x = 4 , then x - 7 = 4 - 7 = - 3 ← not possible

x = 12, then x - 7 = 12 - 7 = 5 and x + 1 = 12 + 1 = 13

The lengths of the 3 sides are

longer leg = 12 m , shorter leg = 5 m and hypotenuse = 13 m
