Mathematics

spayn [35]3 years ago

Answer: $372

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the original retail price be 'x'

Therefore, using the give information, we can form the following equation:

50/100x = 186

Now, solve for x

50/100x = 186

1/2x = 186

x = 186 * 2

x = 372

The original retail price is $372.

Check:

50/100(372) = 186

1/2(372) = 186

186 = 186

Find the y-intercept of the line -4× - 2y =16​
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

The y intercept is (0,-8)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the y intercept, set x = 0 and solve for y

-4x -2y = 16

-4(0) -2y =16

-2y = 16

Divide by -2

-2y/-2 = 16/-2

y = -8

The y intercept is (0,-8)

A private jet can fly 1,095 miles in 3 hours with a tailwind but only 987 miles in 3 hours into a headwind find the speed of the
Verizon [17]

Answer:

The speed of the jet is 347 mph and the  speed of the wind is 18 mph.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following:

x = the speed of the jet in still air.

y = the speed of the wind

we know that the speed is equal to:

v = d / t

therefore the distance would be:

d = v * t

if we replace with the information of the exercise we have:

3 * (x + y) = 1095

3 * (x - y) = 987

we must solve this system of equations, add both equations and we are left:

3 * x + 3 * y = 1095

3 * x - 3 * y = 987

3 * x + 3 * y + 3 * x - 3 * y = 1095 + 987

6 * x = 2082

x = 2082/6 = 347

now to calculate y, we replace:

3 * (347 + y) = 1095

1041 + 3 * y = 1095

3 * y = 1095 - 1041

y = 54/3 = 18

The speed of the jet is 347 mph and the  speed of the wind is 18 mph.
