Let x the the number of cans of tomatoes and 
      32 - x be the number of cans of corn

From the given that the total cost in buying all 32 cans of vegetables is $18 and the costs of each can of vegetables, we generate the equation,
 
                              18 = 0.80x + 0.40(32 - x)

Solving for x from the equation gives x = 13. Alex bought 32 - x cans of corn with a numerical value of 19. Thus, Alex bought 19 cans of corn.

<span>x + y = 32 --> x = 32 - y
now sub that into the other equation
80(32 - y) + 40y = 1800

Now you solve for y.
Once y is found, sub that back into the equation x + y = 32, and solve for x.

If you wish to check your answer, sub it back into the equations.
x + y = 32
13 + 19 = 32
32 = 32 (this works)

80x + 40y = 1800
80(13) + 40(19) = 1800
1040 + 760 = 1800
1800 = 1800 (this works) you are correct.

x = 13 and y = 19</span>

aliya0001 [1]
(35 + 47 + 42 + x) / 4 = 50
(124 + x) / 4 = 50....multiply both sides by 4, cancelling the 4 on the left side.
124 + x = 50 * 4
124 + x = 200
x = 200 - 124
x = 76 <===

What is the solution for the =.
liq [111]

Answer:

solution for n is \frac{-13}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given an equation containing one variable n.

The equation is as follows:

\frac{-5}{2} =\frac{3}{4} +n

To solve for n we can subtract 3/4 from both the sides

The result is

\frac{-5}{2} -\frac{3}{4} =n\\Take LCD as 4\\\\frac{-10-3}{4} =n

Verify:

Substitute the answer in the given equation.

\frac{-5}{2} =\frac{3}{4} -(\frac{13}{4} )

Both sides equal thus proving our correctness of answer.

7x−4≥−15+2x solve in interval notation
Leviafan [203]

Answer:

[-11/5,∞)

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Add 4 to both sides: 7x-4+4≥-15+2x+4

2. Simplify: 7x≥2x-11

3. Subtract 2x from both sides: 7x-2x≥2x-11-2x

4. Simplify: 5x≥-11

5. Divide both sides by 5: 5x/5≥-11/5

6. Simplify: -11/5
