the number of state parks in california is 36 more than one third the number of state parks in florida. there are 85 state parks

in california. which of the following equations would you use to find the number of state parks in florida? note: f represents the number of state parks in florida. 3(f − 36) = 85 1 over 3f 36 = 85 quantity f minus 36 all over 3 equals 85 quantity f plus 36 all over 3 equals 85

Suppose you have a five dollar off coupon at a fabric store you buy a fabric that cost $10 per yard

Lunna [17]

<h3>Answer:</h3>

1.) 10x-5=y

2.) $85

3.) 5.25 yards of fabric.

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

1.) To write an equation for this problem, we need to figure out what every value means:

the variable x, represents the amount of yards of fabric you can buy

the variable y, represents the total amount of money after you found out (x) or the amount of yards of fabric.

1 yard of fabric equals $10, and we have a $5 coupon (-5)

Our equation is:

10x-5=y

This equation represents the relationship between the total cost of fabric, and the amount that you can buy.

2. In order to solve this problem we need to use our equation, one value is given which is 9.

9 represents x, the amount of yards of fabric.

Substitute 9 into x:

10(9)-5=y

<h3>Solve:</h3>

90-5=y

85=y

85 represents the cost of 9 yards of fabric, including the $5 coupon.

3.) This problem is similar to #2, although it's flipped.

The value given is $47.50, which represents (y), the total amount of money after (x) was found out.

But, we need to figure out (x).

Substitute $47.50 into (y):

10(x)-5=$47.50

Next, we need to figure out x by solving the opposite.

Adding the coupon to our answer can represent 10(x).

$47.50+5=52.50

10(x)=52.50

Lastly, divide both sides of the equation by 10.

10(x) / 10=52.50 /10

x=5.25

5.25 represents the amount of yards of fabric purchased if you paid $47.50.

a sequence starts a 200 and 30 is subtracted each time 200,170,140 what are the first two numbers in the sequence that are kess

Snowcat [4.5K]

<h3>Answer: -10 and -40</h3>

===============================================================

Explanation:

a = 200 = first term

d = -30 = common difference

Tn = nth term

Tn = a + d(n-1)

Tn = 200 + (-30)(n-1)

Tn = 200 - 30n + 30

Tn = -30n + 230

Set Tn less than 0 and isolate n

Tn < 0

-30n + 230 < 0

230 < 30n

30n > 230

n > 230/30

n > 7.667 approximately

Rounding up to the nearest whole number gets us $n \ge 8$

So Tn starts to turn negative when n = 8

We can see that,

Tn = -30n + 230

T7 = -30*7 + 230

T7 = 20

and

Tn = -30n + 230

T8 = -30*8 + 230

T8 = -10 is the 8th term

and lastly

Tn = -30n + 230

T9 = -30*9 + 230

T9 = -40 is the ninth term

Or once you determine that T7 = 20, you subtract 30 from it to get 20-30 = -10 which is the value of T8. Then T9 = -40 because -10-30 = -40.
