iving a $20 T-shirt and each woman receiving a $40 sweatshirt. He said that $110 was spent on desk accessories with each man receiving a $5 calendar and each woman receiving a $15 stapler. If m equals the number of men and wequals the number of women, the system of equations that represents the expenses is as follows:

Answer:

So I assume we are figuring out the number of men and women here, so:

m + 2w = 12

m = 12 - 2w

12 - 2w + 3w = 22

w = 10

m + 2w = 12

m + 2(10) = 12

m + 20 = 12

m = -8

What is the unit rate for 875.52 kilometers in 38.4 hours? Enter your answer, as a decimal, in the box.
serious [3.7K]
We are given:
number of kilometers = 875.52 km
time = 38.4 hours

We need to calculate the unit rate, which means that we need to find the number of kilometers in one hour.
To do so, we will simply divide the total number of kilometers by the total time as follows:
unit rate = 875.52 / 38.4 = 22.8 km/hour

The yearly expenses for the Glenn family are represented in the circle graph. The Glenn’s have just purchased a new car. A new c
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

Car: 18.4% Other: 4.9%

Step-by-step explanation:

Glenn family yearly total expenses are

\$8,600+\$4,800+\$5,400+\$2,400+\$7,000+\$1,800=\$30,000

Other expenses are $7,000.

The payments for the new car are: $375.00 per month and the insurance for the new car $85.00 per month, in total, $460 per month. Yearly expenses for car are

\$460\cdot 12=\$5,520

Now, the expenses for the following two categories are

Car - $5,520

Other - $7,000 - $5,520 = $1,480

Percentage:

Car:

\dfrac{5,520}{30,000}\cdot 100\%=18.4\%

Other

\dfrac{1,480}{30,000}\cdot 100\%\approx 4.93\%

Jim is showing his work in simplifying (−8.5 + 6.1) − 1.3.
dexar [7]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  In step 4, Jim's answer is incorrect.

Step-by-step explanation:

In step 1, Jim swaps the order of addends using the commutative property of addition.

In step 2, Jim uses the distributive property to factor -1 from the final two terms. (The associative property lets Jim move parentheses.)

  6.1 +(-8.5 -1.3) . . . associative property

  6.1 +(-1)(8.5 +1.3) . . . distributive property

In step 3, Jim has used the properties of real numbers to form the sum of two of them.

In step 4, Jim wrote an answer of 1.1, when the answer should have been -3.7. Jim's answer is incorrect.

__

The descriptive statements about steps 2 and 4 are both true.

Solve for all values of x by factoring.<br> x^2 + 4x – 30 = -3x
vichka [17]

Answer:

{x}^{2}  + 4x - 30 =  - 3x \\{x}^{2}  + 7x - 30 = 0 \\  {x}^{2}  - 3x + 10x - 30 = 0 \\ x(x - 3) + 10(x - 3) = 0 \\ (x - 3)(x + 10) = 0 \\  \boxed{x = 3} \\  \boxed{x =  - 10}

<h3><em><u>x=3 or x=-10</u></em> is the right answer.</h3>
