Kazeer [188]4 years ago
3 0
15 = 80% * x

15 = 80/100 * x

15 = 8/10 * x

x = 15 * 10/8

x = 150/8

x = 18.75


<span>80% of 18.75 is </span>15<span>.</span>

Kensington City Cafe recently introduced a new flavor of coffee. They served 28 grande cups
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

jumbo 23 oz, grande 16 oz

Step-by-step explanation:

Use g for grande and j for jumbo

The first equation: 28g + 33j = 1207

The second equation: 28g + 53j = 1667

Subtract the first from the second

   28g + 53j = 1667

-   28g + 33j = 1207

Equal 20j = 460

j = 23

Put 23 in for j in either equation and solve for g:

28g + 33(23) = 1207

28g + 759 = 1207

28g = 448

g = 16

Using a sheet of graph paper, solve the following system of equations graphically. Be sure to show any work, use a straight edge
madam [21]

Answer:

<h2> (-1,1)</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given system is

\left \{ {{x+y=0} \atop {x-y+2=0}} \right.

If we graph, the solution would be the interception point between these two lines, because each linear equation represents a line. The lines are attached.

In the graph, you can observe that the solution is the point (-1,1), that is x = -1 and y = 1.

Now, if we want to solve this system by another method, we can just sum both equations and solve for <em>x</em>

\left \{ {{x+y=0} \atop {x-y+2=0}} \right.

2x+2=0\\x=\frac{-2}{2}=-1

Then, we replace this value in one equation to find the other value

x+y=0\\-1+y=0\\y=1

Therefore, the solution is (-1,1)

Determine which of the following statements is NOT correct. 00:00 The equation x + 1.793 = 2.42 can be rewritten as x-1.793 = 2.
Mademuasel [1]

• x+1.793= 2.42

x-1.793= 2.42-1.793 FALSE

• 5.25x = 15.75

Solve for x, by dividing both sides of the equation by 5.25

x = 15.75/5.25

x = 3 TRUE

• The equation x = 2.4 *11.62 can be rewritten as x = 11.62 * 2.4. TRUE

• The solution to the equation x + 9.43 = 16.09 is x = 6.66.​

x+9.43 = 16.09

Subtract 9.43 from both sides of the euqation:

x-9.43+9.43= 16.09-9.43

x = 6.66 TRUE

(WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST) Solve for x.
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

−2(−9x+5)−4x=2(x−5)−4

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

−2(−9x+5)−4x=2(x−5)−4

(−2)(−9x)+(−2)(5)+−4x=(2)(x)+(2)(−5)+−4(Distribute)

18x+−10+−4x=2x+−10+−4

(18x+−4x)+(−10)=(2x)+(−10+−4)(Combine Like Terms)

14x+−10=2x+−14

14x−10=2x−14

Step 2: Subtract 2x from both sides.

14x−10−2x=2x−14−2x

12x−10=−14

Step 3: Add 10 to both sides.

12x−10+10=−14+10

12x=−4

Step 4: Divide both sides by 12.

12x

12

=

−4

12

x= -1/3
