If you assign variables to the problem, it can make things a lot simpler. Lets say chairs are x and tables are y. Therefore you have:
2x+6y=40 
5x+3y=25
Now you can isolate the variable of one equation and put it into another (it doesn't matter which. I'm going to manipulate the top equation to plug into the bottom one).
2x=40-6y 
x=20-3y
Now I plug into bottom equatioin:
5(20-3y) + 3y=25
100-15y+3y=25
100-12y=25
-12y=-75
y=$6.25
Now you can plug in y in either equation to get x. 
2x+6(6.25)=40
37.5+2x=40
2x=2.5
x=1.25
So it costs $6.25 for each table and $1.25 for each chair. If you think about it, it would make sense for the table to cost more for the chair.

Use the properties of exponents to rewrite y=e^-0.75t in the form of a(1-r)^t
Ivahew [28]

Answer: y = (1 - 0.527)^t

Step-by-step explanation:

y=e^(-0.75t)


y=(e^-0.75)^t


y= 0.47236655^t


1 - 0.47236655 = 0.52763345

y = (1 - 0.527)^t

Gabriella and her children went into a grocery store and where they sell apples for $1 each and mangos for $0.50 each. Gabriella
Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of apples that she wants to buy.

The grocery store sells apples for $1 each and mangos for $0.50 each.

If Gabriella decided to buy 13 mangos, it means that the cost of buying x apples and 13 mangoes is expressed as

x + 13 × 0.5 = x + 6.5

If she buy at least 19 apples, it means that

x + 13 ≥ 19

x ≥ 19 - 13

x ≥ 6

Gabriella has $15 to spend. It means that

x + 6.5 ≤ 15

x ≤ 15 - 6.5

x ≤ 8.5

Therefore, the maximum number of apples that she can buy is 8
