Bailey & Riley sell magazines.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Solnce55 [7]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

10

Step-by-step explanation:

We can write Bailey's equation as:

29 + 1.50x

and Riley's equation as:

20 + 2x

Where

x is the number of magazines sold

Since Riley sold 12, her total pay for that day would be:

20 + 2x

20 + 2(12)

20 + 24

$44

Now, how many magazines Bailey need to sell? We equate Bailey's equation to 44 and find x:

29 + 1.5x = 44

1.5x = 44 - 29

1.5x = 15

x = 15/1.5

x = 10

hence, Bailey need to sell 10 magazines to make same money as Riley

I need help with this please. It’s probability.

Answer:

2/13

Step-by-step explanation:

In a deck of 52 cards, there are 2 sets of red cards. Diamonds and Hearts. In each set of red cards, there are 4 fives. If there are 2 sets, that means that there are 8 red fives in the deck of 52 cards. This means that the probability is 8/52 which is simplified into 2/13.

How do I solve this?
Kryger [21]
     y = abˣ
   20 = ab¹
   20 = ab
    b      b
20/b = a

 y = abˣ
 4 = (20/b)b²
 4 = 20b
20    20
¹/₅ = b

   y = abˣ
 20 = ¹/₅b¹
 20 = ¹/₅b
  ¹/₅     ¹/₅
100 = b

y = abˣ
y = 100(0.2)ˣ

What is the y intercept of the line -4x + 6y = -12?
snow_lady [41]
  -4x + 6y = -12
-4(0) + 6y = -12
     0 + 6y = 12
           <u>6y</u> = <u>12</u> 
            6      6
             y = 2

The y-intercept of the equation is 2.

A pipe that's 36 inches long needs to be cut into 2 and one forth inches long pieces. how may pieces can be cut from this length
PolarNik [594]
16 pieces may be cut. This is because we need to divide 36 by 2 and 1/4 to find how many pieces hat can be cut. First, we need to change everything into a fraction (or improper fraction). 2 and 1/4 = 9/4 (if you need help trying to find out how to get this, just ask). Then, since we are doing division, we flip the 9/4 around to get 4/9. 36 times (it's not dividing anymore since we flipped the 9/4) 4/9 = 16 pieces. I hope this helps! :D

What is value of x<br> Plz help
KatRina [158]

Answer:

10√2

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a 45-45-90 triangle which means that the two non-hyptonouse lenghts are the same which means that the bottom lenght of the triangle is also 10 units

We can then use a^2+b^2=c^2 to solve for the last side

so we have

10^2+10^2=x^2

200=x^2

sqrt200=x

and I see that they want an exact answer so you simplify sqrt200 to

10√2
