Answer:

  27

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of $0.15 stamps Ivan bought. Then the value of his stamps is ...

  0.15x +0.40(35-x) = 7.25

  -0.25x +14.00 = 7.25 . . . . . eliminate parentheses, collect terms

  -0.25x = -6.75 . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 14.00

  x = 27 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by -0.25

Ivan bought 27 $0.15 stamps.

Pythagorean Theorem POSSIBLE POINTS : 13:33 Two joggers run 12 miles north and then 8 miles west. What is the shortest distance
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

14.4 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Distance moved North = 12 miles

Distance moved West = 8 miles

Shortest distance to reach starting point :

Let shortest distance to reach starting point = d miles

Using the relation :

Longest side of a right angled triangle:

d = sqrt(8^2 + 12^2)

d = sqrt(64 + 144)

d = sqrt(208)

d = 14.422205

d = 14.4 miles (nearest tenth of a mile)

Please help me I don’t know how to solve it and will mark brainiliest
Sindrei [870]

Answer: One plain roll is 4 dollars and one shiny roll is 6 dollars.

Step-by-step explanation:

lets start by saying

rolls of plain wrapping paper = x

rolls of shiny wrapping paper = y

Kathryn sold 4 plain rolls and 3 shiny rolls for 34 dollars.

4x+3y=34

Eugene sold 4 plain rolls and 2 shiny rolls for 28 dollars

4x+2y=28

Both equations will look like this.

4x+3y=34

-1(4x+2y)=(28)-1

we can multiply the second equation by -1 to get y alone. (doesn't matter which equation). Once you do that, the positive 4x and the negative 4x cancel out, 3y-2y=1y and 34-28=6. you are left with

1y=6 so one shiny roll is 6 dollars.

now use that price to find the cost of the plain roll.

lets use Kathryn's equation

4x + 3(6)=34

4x + 18= 34

      -18  -18

4x=16. Divide by 4 to find cost of one plain roll.

16÷4=4. One plain roll costs 4 dollars.

Lets check. Using Kathryn's equation,

4(4) + 3(6)=34

16+18=34

34=34. We are right.
