Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1.06(12.95 + x) = 31.27

<u>Multiply the terms in the bracket</u>

That's

13.727 + 1.06x = 31.27

<u>Subtract 13.727 from both sides</u>

That's

13.727 - 13.727 + 1.06x = 31.27 - 13.727

1.06x = 17.543

<u>Divide both sides by 1.06</u>

That's

$\frac{1.06x}{1.06} = \frac{17.543}{1.06} \\ x = \frac{17.543}{1.06}$

We have the final answer as

Hope this helps you

Sarah has a collection of nickels, dimes, and quarters worth $28.75. She has 10 more dimes than nickels and twice as many quarte

Ymorist [56]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Write an equation for each statement:

"Sarah has a collection of nickels, dimes, and quarters worth $15.75."

.05n + .1d + .25q = 15.75

"She has 10 more dimes than nickels"

d = n + 10

"twice as many quarters as dimes."

q = 2d

How many coins of each kind does she have?

Take the 2nd equation and arrange it so n is in terms of d also

n + 10 = d

n = (d - 10)

In the 1st equation substitute (d-10) for n and 2d for q:

.05n + .1d + .25q = 15.75

.05(d-10) + .1d + .25(2d) = 15.75

.05d - .5 + .1d + .5d = 15.75

.65d - .5 = 15.75

.65d = 15.75 + .5

.65d = 16.25

d = 16.25/.65

d = 25 dimes

Remember the statement "twice as many quarters as dimes."

q = 2(25)

q = 50 quarters

The statement "She has 10 more dimes than nickels"

n = 25 - 10

n - 15 nickels

Check our solutions

.05(15) + .1(25) + .25(50) =

.75 + 2.50 + 12.50 = 15.75 proves our solutions

Your friend has $90 when he goes to the fair. He spends $5 to enter the fair and $15 on food. Rides at the fair cost $1.50 per r

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer: Option 'B' is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that ,

Total money he takes while going to the fair = $90

Money he spends to enter the fair = $5

Money he spends on food =$15

Total he spent now is given by

$\$5+\$15=\$20$

Now, he spend on rides at the fair i.e. 1.50 per ride .

Let the number of rides be x

So, cost incurred on rides = 1.5x

So, the spending money can be expressed as

$20+1.50x$

Now, remaining money left to him after spending on x rides too is

$90-(1.50x+20)\\\\=90-1.50x-20\\\\=70-1.5x$

Let f(x) denotes the function used to determine the money he has left over after rides .

So it becomes

$f(x)=70-1.50x\\\\f(x)=-1.50x+70$

A line contains the points (4,5) and (3, -9). Write the equation of the line using point-slope form.

neonofarm [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

original formula is: y - y1 = m (x - x1) ordinates= (x1, y1)

insert the a corresponding x and y coordinate:

y + 3 = -2 (x + 9)

Don't forget to change the signs depending on whether their positive or negative:

(3, -9) since 3 is positive but there is a minus in the formula it would be -3

since -9 is negative and in the equation there's a minus sign you would change it to positive. (negative times a negative equals a positive)
