Answer: $4.50
Step-by-step explanation: If it is 50% off then you take the price of $2.25 and double it. So 2 times $2.25 which is $4.50.
Since 6 is positive, it's (x+blank)^2
6/2=3, and (x+3)^2 = x^2+6x+9. We have x^2+6x-2, so we have to add 9 to both sides to get (x+3)^2-2=9, then subtract 9 from both sides to get
(x+3)^2-11=0, or (x+3)^2=11. Square root both sides to get x+3=sqrt(11), and x=sqrt(11)-3, which is approximately 0.32
Answer:
x = 10
y = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
2x - 6y = 2
x + 6y = 28
Add both equations
2x + x -6y + 6y = 2 + 28
3x = 30
Divide both sides by 3
x = 30/3
x = 10
Substitute 10 for x in either equations to get y
Using equation 2 , we have
x + 6y = 28
10 + 6y = 28
Subtract 10 from both sides
10 - 10 + 6y = 28 - 10
6y = 18
Divide both sides by by 6
y = 18/6
y = 3
Therefore
x = 10
y = 3
1. Let hardcover books = X
Paperback books would be 4x -3 ( 3 less than 4 times)
Now you have:
X + 4x-3 = 447
Simplify:
5x - 3 = 447
Add 3 to each side:
5x = 450
Divide both sides by 5:
x = 450/5
x = 90
He has 90 hardcover books.
2. 300 miles / 25 miles per gallon = 12 gallons of gas.
12 gallons x $$ per gallon = $48 dollars
3. Subtract base pay from total:
1916 - 800 = 1,116 worth of commissions.
Divide commissions by percentage:
1116 / 0.09 = $12,400 total sales.
4.
Find the median of the heights: 65-50 = 15. 15/2 = 7.5
Median = 50+7.5 = 57.5
The equation would be |h-57.5| < 7.5
