If collecte 63 cans which is 21%. How many cans are 46%. And how many is 33% ?
EleoNora [17]
If 63 cand are 21% we must find out what 1% is
To do that we must divide 63 by 21
63/21 = 3
So 1%=3 cans
To find out what a percentage equals we must times it by 3
46 * 3 =138 cans
33*3 = 99 cans
Hope this helps :)

A businessman buys 1,440 dozen pens at $2.50 a dozen and then sells them at a price of 25¢ apiece. What is his total profit on th
LekaFEV [45]
He spend: 1440*2.5=3600 
he earn: 0.25*1440*12=4320
[because he sells 0.25/each and buy 1440 dozen so 1440*12]

4320-3600=720

Solve the system of equations:x + 3y - z = -4 2x - y + 2z = 13 3x - 2y - z = -9
tatiyna

Answer:

The solution to the system of equations is

\begin{gathered} x=\frac{179}{13} \\  \\ y=-\frac{279}{39} \\  \\ z=-\frac{48}{13} \end{gathered}

Explanation:

Giving the system of equations:

\begin{gathered} x+3y-z=-4\ldots\ldots\ldots\ldots\ldots\ldots..........\ldots\ldots\ldots\ldots.\ldots\text{.}\mathrm{}(1) \\ 2x-y+2z=13\ldots\ldots...\ldots\ldots\ldots\ldots..\ldots..\ldots\ldots\ldots\ldots\ldots.(2) \\ 3x-2y-z=-9\ldots\ldots\ldots.\ldots\ldots\ldots\ldots....\ldots\ldots.\ldots\ldots\ldots\text{.}\mathrm{}(3) \end{gathered}

To solve this, we need to first of all eliminate one variable from any two of the equations.

Subtracting (2) from twice of (1), we have:

5y-4z=-21\ldots\ldots\ldots\ldots\ldots.\ldots.\ldots..\ldots..\ldots\ldots.\ldots..\ldots\text{...}\mathrm{}(4)

Subtracting (3) from 3 times (1), we have

3y-5z=-3\ldots\ldots...\ldots\ldots..\ldots\ldots\ldots\ldots\ldots.\ldots\ldots\ldots\ldots\ldots..\ldots\ldots(5)

From (4) and (5), we can solve for y and z.

Subtract 5 times (5) from 3 times (4)

\begin{gathered} 13z=-48 \\  \\ z=-\frac{48}{13} \end{gathered}

Using the value of z obtained in (5), we have

\begin{gathered} 3y-5(-\frac{48}{13})=-3 \\  \\ 3y+\frac{240}{13}=-3 \\  \\ 3y=-3-\frac{240}{13} \\  \\ 3y=-\frac{279}{13} \\  \\ y=-\frac{279}{39} \end{gathered}

Using the values obtained for y and z in (1), we have

\begin{gathered} x+3(-\frac{279}{39})-(-\frac{48}{13})=-4 \\  \\ x-\frac{279}{13}+\frac{48}{13}=-4 \\  \\ x-\frac{231}{13}=-4 \\  \\ x=-4+\frac{231}{13} \\  \\ x=\frac{179}{13} \end{gathered}

PLEASE HELP
zubka84 [21]
If there are 1.5 times as many pairs of walking shoes as there are running shoes on display, then it is best to take each amount of running shoes and multiply it by 1.5, if doing that equals the amount of walking shoes, then it would be correct. Which in this case, would be D.

Solve similar triangles (advanced)<br> Solve for x<br> x=?
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

x = 1.2

Step-by-step explanation:

AD/AB = DE/BC (Similarity Theorem)

AD = 6 + 4 = 10

AB = 6

DE = 2

BC = x

Plug in the values

10/6 = 2/x

Cross multiply

10*x = 2*6

10x = 12

Divide both sides by 10

x = 12/10

x = 1.2
