Answer:
15u + 141 = 420
Step-by-step explanation:
So basically we are modelling how much the coach is spending. Each player is given a uniform and a basketball
We can use 'u' as the cost of a single uniform
We can use 'b' as the cost of a single basketball
Since there is 15 players we must give a ball and uniform to each so
15u + 15b = 420
The problem gives us the cost of each basketball: 9.40
so now 15u + 15(9.4) = 420
15u + 141 = 420
Answer:
yes
Step-by-step explanation:
We can estimate* that the total price including tax of the game will be less than ...
$43.31 +10% of 43.31 = $43.31 +4.33 = $47.61
Todd easily has enough to pay for the game, including tax.
_____
You can work this more exactly a couple of ways.
1. Price + tax = 1.085×$43.31 = $46.99 . . . less than Todd's budget
2. Most Todd can afford: $55.50/1.085 = $51.15 . . . more than the game price
_____
* For estimating purposes, we like to use numbers that are easy to compute with. 10% is one such number, as it only requires moving the decimal point.
Answer:
C seems right to me
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
No solutions
Step-by-step explanation:
3x+4y=-4
15x+20y=-22
——————————
-5(3x+4y)=-5(-4) multiply 1st equation by -5 so you can eliminate the variables
-15x-20y=20. Modified 1st equation
15x+20y=-22. 2nd equation
0+0=-2. Added two equations together
since 0 does not equal -2, there is no solution.
