Answer:

option c) $ 2.96

Step-by-step explanation:

15% = 15 /100 = 0.15

Let last year's price = $ x

x + 15% of x = $ 3.40

x + 0.15*x = 3.40

x + 0.15x = 3.40    {Add like terms}

1.15x = 3.40   {Divide both sides by 1.15}

1.15x/1.15=3.40/1.15

x = 2.956

Last year's price = $ 2.96

6x – 3y = 5<br>y – 2x= 8​
noname [10]

Answer:

PA GEN SOLISYON --> "NO SOLUTION"

Step-by-step explanation:

Whether you multiply the top equation by ⅓ to make "-y" and "2x", or multiply the bottom equation by 3 to make "3y" and "-6x", you will see that 9⅓ ≠ 0, or 24 ≠ 0, therefore the result is "NO SOLUTION".

Solve each equation. Show your work<br><br> 13a=-5<br> 12−b=12.5<br> -0.1=-10c
amid [387]
1) 13a=-5
Make a the subject of the formula by dividing both sides by 13(the coefficient of a)
13a/13=-5/13
Therefore a= -0.385

The second one). 12-b= 12.5
You take the 12 to the other side making b subject of the formula (-b in this case)
-b= 12.5-12
-b= 0.5
(You cannot leave b with a negative sign so you will divide both sides by -1 to cancel out the negative sign)

-b/-1= 0.5/-1
Therefore b=-0.5

The third one). -0.1= -10c
You will divide both sides by the coefficient of c(number next to c) which is -10
-0.1/-10= -10c/-10

Hence, c= 0.01

Amiraneli [1.4K]

A set of ordered pairs is called a relation. The set of all first components of the ordered pairs of a relation is the domain of the relation, and the set of all second components of the ordered pairs is the range of the relation. :)
