Answer:
the original price of the shoes is $75
Step-by-step explanation:
x * 1.08 = 81
x = 81 / 1.08 = 75
75 * 1.08 = 81
Y = -3/8x - 7....add 3/8x from both sides
3/8x + y = -7 ...multiply both sides by 8
3x + 8y = - 56 <==
Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
(a)
Given
x² + 5x + 6
Consider the factors of the constant term ( + 6) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term ( + 5)
The factors are 3 and 2, since
3 × 2 = 6 and 3 + 2 = 5, hence
x² + 5x + 6 = (x + 3)(x + 2) ← in factored form
(b)
To solve
x² + 5x + 6 = 0 ← use the factored form, that is
(x + 3)(x + 2) = 0
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x + 3 = 0 ⇒ x = - 3
x + 2 = 0 ⇒ x = - 2
49 dollars
Step-by-step explanation:
14 times 3 is 42 and 3.50 times 2 is 7, so 42 plus 7 is 49.
