Answer: C.225

Step-by-step explanation: for this case we need to calculate the value of x, to complete this we have 2 equations,

you can stat with simple equation X+y=525, if you clear x we get the following equation.

x = 525 - y

after that we are going to replace x in the major equation.

3x + 7y = 2775

After replace x we get the following equation

3 * (525 - y) + 7y = 2775

after that, the 3 is going to multiply each value into the parenthesis

3 * 525 - 3 * + 7y = 2775

after resolve the product we get the following equation

1575 - 3y + 7y = 2775

you need resolve the equation with values which has the y

getting the following result

1575 + 4y = 2775

after that you pass the 1575 to the other side with the sign of subtraction

4y = 2775 - 1575

4y = 1200

after that, the 4 which is multiplying pass to the other side dividing

then

y = 1200/4

y = 300

finally, you will replace the value of y in the equation where we clear x, this equation.

x = 525 - y

if you replace y

x = 525 - 300

x = 225

then value of the x is 225

Alright, so we plug (-2) in for x. (-2)^2 =4, and we can plug that in as 4(4)+(-2)+5. Next, 4*4=16, so we get 15+(-2)+5. After that, we get 15-2+5=18

A certain backpack costs $22, and there is 4% sales tax. What is one way to determine what the amount of sales tax will be? Sele

Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

$0.88

Step-by-step explanation:

cost per 1% = 22 ÷ 100 = 0.22

⇒ cost of 4% = 4 x 0.22 = 0.88

4% = 4/100 = 0.04

⇒ 4% of 22 = 0.04 x 22 = 0.88

James works at a grocery store. He makes $6.20 per hour and works 30 hours each week. How much money will james make in a 4-week

lara31 [8.8K]

It is a very simple question to answer.

Obviously first we can calculate his weekly earnings and then multiply them by 4 to calculate his total earnings over the course of 4 year period.

So as he makes 6.2$ an hour. He will make 6.2 * 30 = 186 $ a week as that is the number of hours he works in a week.

Now we can multiply this by 4 to calculate his over all earnings. So 186 * 4 = 744.

12. A drawer contains 2 red socks, 6 white socks,

777dan777 [17]

Answer:

Probability that first sock is blue is 0.33 and Probability that second sock is red is 0.16

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of red socks = 2

Number of white socks = 6

Number of blue socks = 4

Total socks in drawer = 2+6+4 = 12

The formula used to calculate probability is: $Probability=\frac{Number \ of \ favourable \ outcomes}{Total \ number \ of \ outcomes}$

We are given you draw out a sock, return it, and draw out a second sock.

We need to find the probability that the first sock is blue and the second sock is red?

Using formula:

Probability that first sock is blue = 4/12 = 1/3 = 0.33

Probability that second sock is red = 2/12 = 1/6 = 0.16

So, Probability that first sock is blue is 0.33 and Probability that second sock is red is 0.16
