Answer:

John receives a pay of $3,500.00

Step-by-step explanation:

x = John's pay

x = 1/2x + 250 + 3/7x     [1/2 = 7/14 and 3/7 = 6/14]

x = 13/14x + 250

x - 13/14x = 13/14x - 13/14x + 250    [1x = 14/14]

1/14x = 250   [multiply both sides by 14]

x = 3500

Check:

3500 = 1/2(3500) + 250 + 3/7(3500)

3500 = 1750 + 250 + 1500

3500 = 3500

Whats the cost of each vegetable if 5 squash and 2 zucchini is $1.32​
alex41 [277]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

 

We first need to define a couple of variables.  Let s = the cost of 1 squash and z = the cost of 1 zucchini.

 

Now lets translate the words into algebra:

 

"The cost of 5 squash and 2 zucchini is $1.32"  ===>  5s  +  2z  =  1.32

 

"Three squash and 1 zucchini cost $0.75"  ===>   3s  +  z  =  0.75

 

There are several ways to solve systems of equations.  Let's use substitution.  We can find what z equals in terms of s by manipulating the second equation:

 

 3s  +   z   =   0.75

-3s                 -3s

------------     -------------

           z    =  -3s  +0.75

 

Now lets substitute (-3s + 0.75) into the first equation for z, then solve for s:

 

 5s + 2(-3s + 0.75) = 1.32

 

Can you handle it from here?

 

(Hint: Once you have solved for s, you can substitute that value back into either of the equations and solve for z.)

so you go and subtract and you ad what each one equals

                                       10-12=2

                                         9-12=3

                                         3-12=9

How does a quadratic function differ from that of a linear or exponential
salantis [7]
Hello,

A linear function is a polynomial function of degree 1
(1,2,3,4,5,6,....)
A quadratic function is a polynomial function of degree 2
(1,4,9,16,25,49,64,81,...)
A exponential function is not a polynomial function (we may imagine a infinity degree)
(1,2,4,8,16,32,64,128,256,512,1024,...)
