Let x be the money he had originally.
x/3+5=x/2
5=x/6
x=30
So he had $30 originally.
Answer:
The speed of the biker is 15
Step-by-step explanation:
First, you call the speed of the walker x, and the speed of the biker 2.5x.
Then you know that speed times time equals distance, so you set up and equation. You do x times 2, which is 2x, and then 2.5x times 2, which is 5x. Then, since the distance between them is 18 miles, the equation would be 5x-2x=18. You would get 3x=18, and x is 6. So 6 is the speed of the walker, and 6 times 2.5 = 15, so the speed of the biker is 15.
Answer:
m=-2
Step-by-step explanation:
m=y2-y1/x2-x1
m=-2-8/3-(-2)
m=-2-8/3+2
m=-10/5
m=-2
Answer:
5.3
Step-by-step explanation:
You use the Pythagoras theorem which is a^2+b^2=c^2.
Since you're solving for a side length that's not the hypotenuse you will manipulate the equation to c^2-a^2=b^2. From here you just plug in numbers.
8^2 - 6^2 = b^2
64 - 36 = b^2
b = sqrt(28)
b = 5.2915.... = 5.3
Answer:
$185
Step-by-step explanation:
The first ten suits sold for 10×$250 = $2,500
commission = 5% of $2,500 = 0.05×$2,500 = $125
The next three suits sold for 3×$250 = $750
commission = 8% of $750 = 0.08×$750 = $60
Total commissions = $125+$60 = $185
