Answer: 3/10
Step-by-step explanation:
Subtract them
2x +100=16+4x
-2x. -2x
100=16+2x
-16. -16
84=2x
divide both sides
x=42
One scarf=s
One hat=h
2s+h=13
s+2h=14
h=13-2s
(plug that into the other equation)
s+2(13-2s)=14
s+26-4s=14
26-3s=14
-3s=-12
s=4
One hat=$5
One scarf=$4
5+4=9
Price of one hat AND one scarf is $9
Answer:
500
Step-by-step explanation:
15% * x = 75
(15/100) * x = 75 Multiply both sides by 100/15
(15/100)*(100/15) = 75 * 100/15
x = 7500/15
x = 500
Answer 500
Proportion
15/100 = 75 / x Cross multiply
15x = 100*75 Combine the right
15x = 7500 Divide 15
15x/15 = 7500/15
x = 500
Answer:
<h3>
44</h3>
Step-by-step explanation:
z - some integer
2z - first given even integer (the smaller one)
2z+2 - even integer consecutive to 2z (the larger one)
2(2z) - twice the smaller number
2(2z) - 40 - the number 40 less than twice the smaller number
2(2z) - 40 = 2z + 2
4z - 40 = 2z + 2
2z = 42
2z+2 = 42+2 = 44
check:
2(2z)-40 = 2(42)-40 = 84-40 = 44
