Answer: $52.71
Step-by-step explanation:
Today's price= $58.63
Yesterday's price= y
Difference= $5.92
y+5.92 = 58.63
y = 58.63 - 5.92
= $52.71
Answer:
20
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Red flowers = 1/8
Purple = 1/4
(1/8 + 1/4) = (1 + 2) / 8 = 3/8
Fraction left :
1 - 3/8 =. 5/8
Pink flowers :
1/4 of fraction left ;
1/4 * 5/8 = 5/32
Number of pink flowers
Total number of flowers = 128
5/32 * 128
640 / 32
= 20
20 pink flowers
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Full charge can be expressed as equation:</u>
- c = 2.5 + 0.75m, where c- charge, m- miles
<u>The limit for charge is $13, then we got inequality:</u>
- 0.75m + 2.5 ≤ 13
- 0.75m ≤ 9.5
- m ≤ 9.5/0.75
- m ≤ 12.66
Option B: 10 is correct as the only number satisfying the inequality
Answer: 4!!!!!!!!!!! Or is it 9?
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
the prices were $0.05 and $1.05
Step-by-step explanation:
Let 'a' and 'b' represent the costs of the two sodas. The given relations are ...
a + b = 1.10 . . . . the total cost of the sodas was $1.10
a - b = 1.00 . . . . one soda costs $1.00 more than the other one
__
Adding these two equations, we get ...
2a = 2.10
a = 1.05 . . . . . divide by 2
1.05 -b = 1.00 . . . . . substitute for a in the second equation
1.05 -1.00 = b = 0.05 . . . add b-1 to both sides
The prices of the two sodas were $0.05 and $1.05.

<em>Additional comment</em>
This is a "sum and difference" problem, in which you are given the sum and the difference of two values. As we have seen here, <em>the larger value is half the sum of the sum and difference</em>: a = (1+1.10)/2 = 1.05. If we were to subtract one equation from the other, we would find <em>the smaller value is half the difference of the sum and difference</em>: b = (1.05 -1.00)/2 = 0.05.
This result is the general solution to sum and difference problems.
