Answer: the plain pencil costs 10 cents and the colored pencil costs 20 cents
Answer:
14:6
21:9
28:12
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the initial ratio of 7:3, you can find equivalent ratios by multiplying the two numbers by the same factor:
7 x 2 = 14
3 x 2 = 6
14:6
7 x 3 = 21
3 x 3 = 9
21:9
7 x 4 = 28
3 x 4 = 12
28:12
Answer:
x = $200
The original price is $200
Question :
The price of a dress is reduced by 50%. When the dress still does not sell, it is reduced by 50% of the reduced price. If the price of the dress after both reductions is $50, what was the original price?
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the original price of the dress.
First reduction
After first reduction the value of the price is given as;
p1 = x - 50% of x = (1-0.50)x = 0.5x
p1 = 0.5x
Second reduction
After the second reduction the value of the price is given as;
p2 = p1 - 50% of p1 = (1-0.50)p1 = (0.50)0.50x
p2 = 0.25x .....1
Since, p2 is given
p2 = $50
Substituting into equation 1
$50 = 0.25x
x = $50/0.25 = $200
x = $200
The original price is $200
Which sequence has a common ratio of 2? a{20, 40, 80, 160, 320, 640, …} b{20, 10, 5, 2.5, 1.25, 0.625, …} c{20, 15, 10, 5, 0, -5

Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
40/20=2
80/40=2
Therefore the common ration is 2
So remember that paralell lines have the same slope
y=1/4x-6
1/4=slope
so we set up a new equation in slope intercept form
y=mx+b
m=slope
b=y-intercept
y=1/4x+b
one solution si (-1,5) where x=-1 and y=5
subsitute
5=1/4(-1)+b
5=-1/4+b
add 1/4 to both sides
5+1/4=21/4=b
the answer is y=1/4x+21/4
