Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A = Adam, B = Betty

Adam and Betty purchased a printer together for $258.

This means we can say A + B = 258.

We are also told Adam paid $18 less than twice Betty.

You can write this as:

Adam = 2 x Betty - 18

A = 2B - 18

Substitute "A" into the A + B equation and you get:

A + B = 258

2B - 18 + B = 258

3B - 18 = 258

Add 18 to both sides.

3B = 258 + 18

3B = 276

Divide both sides by 3 to find B

B = 276/3 = 92 (This means Betty paid $92).

Since the total that they paid together was $258.

This means Adam pays the Total - How much Betty paid

Adam = 258 - 92 = $166

VMariaS [17]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

When you look at the triangle look at the 3 vertices. Now look at you answers given and choose one that combines all 3 vertices. You don't want your answer to contain a letter/number that represents the length of a side.

So in this case you don't want M or Y in you answer.

Your answer has to be made up of A X andT.

The only answer that uses AXT is answer B.

A large box of crackers away 20 Oz if James needs 3 pounds of crackers for a party how many boxes of crackers should he buy
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

James will need to buy 3 boxes of crackers for the party.

Step-by-step explanation:

remember: 16oz=1 pound

If James needs 3 pounds of crackers, and each box is 20oz, that means each box is a little over 1 pound. (1.25 pounds to be exact). So, we know that he needs to buy 3 boxes of crackers. This is because 20×3=60 ounces which is 3.75 pounds. Meaning, 3 boxes is the correct answer since we can't cut a box in half.

Howie wants to get a car loan with 4% simple interest rate. If the car costs $25,000, how much would Howie need to pay back at t
likoan [24]

The amount Howie will pay back at the end of one year is $26000.00

The given parameters are:

P =25000 -- the principal amount

R = 4\% -- the interest rate

T=1 --- the duration

The amount to pay back in this duration is then calculated using:

A = P(1 + RT)

So, we have:

A = 25000(1 + 4\% \times 1)

A = 25000(1 + 4\% )

Express percentage as decimal

A = 25000(1 + 0.04)

A = 25000(1 .04)\\

Multiply

A = 26000

Hence, the amount to pay back is $26000.00
