Answer:
8 bags of pretzels
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of bags of pretzels Tim buys. We assume he spends exactly $20 on exactly 12 bags of snack food. Then his purchase is ...
1.50x + 2.00(12-x) = 20.00
-0.50x +24.00 = 20.00 . . . eliminate parentheses, collect terms
-0.50x = -4.00 . . . . . . . . . . .subtract 24
x = 8 . . . . . . . . . . divide by -0.50
Tim will buy 8 bags of pretzels.
Answer:
x = -4 and -2x - 8
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Distribute</u>
-1/3(6x + 15) - 3
-6/3x - 15/3 - 3
-2x - 5 - 3
-2x - 8
<u>Step 2: IF NEEDED SOLVE FOR X</u>
-2x - 8 + 8 = 0 + 8
-2x / -2 = 8 / -2
x = -4
Answer: x = -4 and -2x - 8
Answer:
x = - 5, x = - 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
f(x) = x² + 7x + 10
To find the x- intercepts let f(x) = 0, that is
x² + 7x + 10 = 0 ← in standard form
(x + 2)(x + 5) = 0 ← in factored form
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x + 2 = 0 ⇒ x = - 2
x + 5 = 0 ⇒ x = - 5
The x- intercepts are (- 5, 0) and (- 2, 0 )
Hey there :)
We know the formula for simple interest is
I = prt
{ The picture includes what each stands for }
Lehena:Initial amount = $100
Interest rate = 2.5% =

Time = 3 years
I = ( 100 )( 0.025 )( 3 )
= 7.5$
Total = $100 + $7.5 =
$107.5Marty:Initial amount = $100
Interest rate = 2% =

Time = 3 years
I = ( 100 )( 0.02 )( 3 )
= $6
Total = $100 + $6 =
$106How much more than Marty did Lehena receive?= Total Amount of Lehena - Total Amount of Marty
= 107.5 - 106
= $1.5Your answer will be option
B) $1.50
