Answer:
4.4
Step-by-step explanation:
10.6 + x = 15
x = 15 - 10.6 = 4.4
Answer:
x= 1/2 and -3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
By using factorization, we can solve this equation.
8x^2+2x-3=0
Factor:
(2x-1)(4x+3)=0
Solve:
2x-1=0
2x=1
x=1/2
Solve again:
4x+3=0
4x=-3
x=-3/4

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let p represent the number of pens Nick sold. Then the revenue is ...
0.10p +0.05(1000 -p) = 74.50
0.05p = 24.50 . . . . . . eliminate parentheses, subtract 50
p = 490 . . . . . . . . . . . . multiply by 20
The number of pencils sold is then ...
pencils = 1000 -490 = 510
Nick's Printing Press sold 490 pens and 510 pencils.
