The answer is c! you just subtract: 3/2-1/2, which is 1.
Answer:
Whats F five is that a point or something???
Step-by-step explanation:
4x - 2y = 14
y = 0.5x -1
Get just one variable on one side for both equations.
4x - 2y = 14 ⇒ 4x = 2y + 14 ⇒ 4x - 14 = 2y
y = 0.5x - 1 ⇒ x - 2 = 2y
Use the transitive property and then solve for x.
x-2 = 4x-14
12 = 3x
x = 4

Answer:
x+0.05x=3.15 which has one solution
Step-by-step explanation:
Complete question below:
Joshua sells a pack of pens for 3.15 which is 5 percent more than he pays for them. which equation will help find x, the amount he pays for a pack of pens? how many solutions will this equation have? x+0.05x=3.15, which has infinitely many solutions x+0.5x=3.15, which has one solution x+0.05×=3.15 which has one solution 0.05×=3.15, which has no solution
Let
x= the amount Joshua pays for a pack of pen
5% of x more than he paid for them
=0.05x more
Buying price=0.05x + x
Selling price=3.15
Equate buying and selling price
0.05x + x = 3.15
1.05x=3.15
Divide both sides by 1.05
1.05x / 1.05 = 3.15/1.05
x=3
The equation is 0.05x+x=3.15
The answer is:
x+0.05x=3.15 which has one solution
