Answer:

Number of trucks = 24

Number of SUVs = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

A)

The ratio of cars to trucks is 9:4

The total ratio of cars to trucks is

9+4 = 13

Let x = sum of cars and trucks.

There are 54 cars. Therefore,

x = 54 + t trucks

Number of cars = ratio of cars/ total ratio × sum of cars and trucks. This means,

54 = 9/13 × x

9x / 13 = 54

9x = 13 × 54

9x = 702

x = 702 / 9 = 78

x = 54 + t trucks = number of trucks = 78 = 54 + t trucks

t trucks = 78 - 54 = 24

Number of trucks = 24

B)

The ratio of trucks to SUVs is 12:21

The total ratio of cars to trucks is

12 + 21 = 33

Let y = sum of trucks and SUVs

There are 24 trucks. Therefore,

x = 24 + s SUVs

Number of trucks = ratio of trucks / total ratio × sum of trucks and SUVs. This means,

24 = 12 / 33 × y

12y / 33 = 24

12y = 24 × 33

12y = 792

y = 792 / 12 = 66

y = 24 + s SUVs

66 = 24 + s SUVs

s SUVs = 66 - 24 = 42

Number of SUVs = 24

What must be added to both sides in 4x² + 24x + 8 = 32 in order to complete the square?
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve a quadratic equation by using the completing the square method, the coefficient of the square term i.e x² must be one (1).

Therefore, we would have to first make the coefficient of x² to be equal to 1.

4x² + 24x + 8 = 32

We would simplify the equation;

4x² + 24x = 32 - 8

4x² + 24x = 24

Divide all through by 4;

x² + 8x = 24

The value to be added = (8/2)² = 4² = 16

x² + 8x + 16 = 8 + 16

x² + 4x + 4x + 16 = 24

x(x + 4) + 4(x + 4) = 24

(x + 4)² = 24

Taking the square root of both sides;

x + 4 = ± 4.9

x = -4 ± 4.9

x = -4 + 4.9 = 0.9

or

x = -4 - 4.9 = - 8.9

<em>Therefore, 16 must be added to solve the quadratic equation by completing the square method. </em>

Jackson purchased a pack of game cards that was on sale for 22% off. The sales tax in his county is 6%. Let y represent the orig
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

Final cost = 0.9328y

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume,

Original price = y

Given:

Discount = 22%

Sales tax = 6%

Computation:

Sales tax will be added on sale value

So,

Sales price = y[100%-22%]

Sales price = 0.88y

Price after sales tax :

Final cost = 0.88y[100% + 6%]

Final cost = 0.88y[106%]

Final cost = 0.9328y
