Answer:
$2.30
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply 23 by .10 to get 2.3
2.3 is 2 dollars and 30 cents
40 percent of 250 = .4*250 = 100
100 seventh graders got the flu.

Answer & Step-by-step explanation:
Using the information given in the question we can form the following 3 equations (in the order of the first 3 sentences)
w = 2h (twice the price)
t = h - 4 ($4 less)
3w + 2h + 5t = 136 (total purchasing and cost)
We can solve all 3 equations for h first, by substituting the first two equations, into the third equations w and t
3(2h) + 2h + 5(h-4) = 136
Simplify
6h + 2h + 5h - 20 = 136
13h = 136 + 20
13h = 156
h = 156/13
h = $12
Using this information, we can solve for w and t
w = 2h
w = 2(12)
w = $24
And finally
t = h - 4
t = 12 - 4
t = $8
Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
(a)
x² + 2x + 1 = 2x² - 2 ( subtract x² + 2x + 1 from both sides
0 = x² - 2x - 3 ← in standard form
0 = (x - 3)(x + 1) ← in factored form
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x + 1 = 0 ⇒ x = - 1
x - 3 = 0 ⇒ x = 3
-----------------------------------
(b)
-
=
( multiply through by 15 to clear the fractions )
5(x + 2) - 2 = 3(x - 2) ← distribute parenthesis on both sides
5x + 10 - 2 = 3x - 6
5x + 8 = 3x - 6 ( subtract 3x from both sides )
2x + 8 = - 6 ( subtract 8 from both sides )
2x = - 14 ( divide both sides by 2 )
x = - 7
--------------------------------------------
(c) Assuming lg means log then using the rules of logarithms
log
⇔ nlogx
log x = log y ⇒ x = y
Given
log(2x + 3) = 2logx
log(2x + 3) = log x² , so
x² = 2x + 3 ( subtract 2x + 3 from both sides )
x² - 2x - 3 = 0
(x - 3)(x + 1) = 0
x = 3 , x = - 1
x > 0 then x = 3
