Hi there!

Let th' number of CD's be = X

• Setup fee = $ 5,500
• Per CD's charge = $ 1.00
• Desired cost per CD = $ 3.50

Acc'rding to the question :-

Desired cost per CD = Setup fee + Cost per CD

⇒ (3.50 × X) = $ 5, 500 + ($ 1.00 × X)

⇒3.50 X = $ 5, 500 + 1.00 X

Combine like terms :-

⇒ 3.50 X - $ 1.00 X = $ 5, 500

⇒ 2.50 X = $ 5, 500

⇒X = \dfrac {5, 500}{2.50} = 2, 200 CD's

Hence,
The required answer is = X = 2, 200 CD's

~ Hope it helps!

Setup Fee= $5,500Per CD Charge= $1.00Desired Cost Per CD= $3.50
x= number of CDs

Desired Cost Per CD= Cost per CD + Setup Fee
($3.50 * x)= ($1.00 * x) + $5,500multiply inside parentheses
$3.50x= $1.00x + $5,500subtract $1.00x from both sides
$2.50x= $5,500divide both sides by $2.50
x= 2,200 CDs

ANSWER: x= 2,200 CDs
Hope this helps!  :)

Answer:

24 m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Go to 20s on the graph(located on the x-axis) then go up. The point is right under 25m/s, therefore it is 24 m/s.

Sherry purchased a new backpack for her daughter. The backpack was on sale for 20% off the regular price. If Sherry paid $28.80
madreJ [45]


28.80 + .20X = X

.20X = X - 28.80

1/5 = .20

X/5 = X -28.80

X = 5X - 144

Set the new X equal to the original X

28.80 + .20X = 5X - 144

172.8 + .20X = 5X

172.8 = 4.8X

36 = X

36$ is the original price

To check,

28.80 + (.20 x 36) = 36

28.80 + 7.2 = 36

36 = 36

I really need help. My math teacher doesn't want to help me and isn't responding to my emails. Could you explain how to solve ea
wolverine [178]

4. To determine if a triangle is a right triangle, given that you know the length of its sides, you have to check if its lengths follow the Pythagorean theorem.

This theorem states that the square of the hypothenuse (c) is equal to the sum of the squares of the legs of the triangle (a and b), following the expression:

a^2+b^2=c^2

The triangle is:

We have to check that a²+ b² is equal to c².

The square of the hypothenuse is:

\begin{gathered} c^2=10^2 \\ c^2=100 \end{gathered}

The sum of the squares of the legs of the triangle is:

\begin{gathered} a^2+b^2=8^2+6^2 \\ a^2+b^2=64+36 \\ a^2+b^2=100 \end{gathered}

As you can see, the sum of the squares of the legs of the triangle is 100, which is the same as the square of the hypothenuse. The triangle follows the Pythagorean theorem and can be considered a right triangle.

When solving a system of linear equations, try to algebraically form one equation that has only one variable.
lianna [129]
I believe the correct answer is true. <span>When solving a system of linear equations, try to algebraically form one equation that has only one variable. In this way, you can solve the value of that variable and eventually solve the other variables. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.</span>
