Charlie's Carpets:
----------------------------
Carpet : $18/yd
Installation: $2/yd
Discount: 20% x $18 = 0.2 x 18 = $3.60
Carpet Price after discount = $18 - $3.60 = $14.40/yd²
Carpet Price with installation $14.40 + $2 = $16.40/yd²
----------------------------
Cindy's Carpet
----------------------------
Carpet = $18/yd²
Discount = 10% = 0.1 x $18 = $1.80
Price after Discount = $18 - $1.80 = $16.20/yd²
----------------------------
Summary:
----------------------------
Charlie's Carpet = $16.40/yd²
Cindy's Carpet = $16.20/yd²
CIndy's Carpet is cheaper.
----------------------------
Find Cost:
----------------------------
Length = 19 x 1/3 = 19/3 yards
Width = 12 x 1/3 = 4 yards
19/3 x 4 = 25 1/3 yd²
Cost = 25 1/3 x $16.20 = $410.40
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: Cindy's Carpet is cheaper and it will cost $410.40.

Answer:
you divide 13 by four and you get 3 and a quarter. thats your answer
Since this is a parallelogram and the angles are adjacent to one another, a theorem will prove that the sum of these two angles would equal 180°
Therefore, we can set up this equation:
(2x + 24) + x = 180 ⇒ Remove parentheses
2x + 24 + x = 180 ⇒ Combine like terms
3x + 24 = 180 ⇒ Subtract 24 from both sides
3x = 156 ⇒ Divide both sides by 3
x = 52°
18 kg of 15% copper and 72 kg of 60% copper should be combined by the metalworker to create 90 kg of 51% copper alloy.
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Let x = kg of 15% copper alloy
Let y = kg of 60% copper alloy
Since we need to create 90 kg of alloy we know:
x + y = 90
51% of 90 kg = 45.9 kg of copper
So we're interested in creating 45.9 kg of copper
We need some amount of 15% copper and some amount of 60% copper to create 45.9 kg of copper:
0.15x + 0.60y = 45.9
but
x + y = 90
x= 90 - y
substituting that value in for x
0.15(90 - y) + 0.60y = 45.9
13.5 - 0.15y + 0.60y = 45.9
0.45y = 32.4
y = 72
Substituting this y value to solve for x gives:
x + y = 90
x= 90-72
x=18
Therefore, in order to create 90kg of 51% alloy, we'd need 18 kg of 15% copper and 72 kg of 60% copper.
The answer is D
