Answer:

  • Total cost: $3000
  • Martha: $600
  • Emily: $75
  • Alexandra: $750
  • Laura: $75
  • Lisa: $1500

Step-by-step explanation:

The percentages add to 95%, so the dollar amounts (total $150) comprise 5% of the cost. Then the total cost is ...

  total cost × 5% = $150

  total cost = $150/0.05 = $3000

And the percentages are ...

  20% × $3000 = $600 (Martha's share)

  25% × $3000 = $750 (Alexandra's share)

  50% × $3000 = $1500 (Lisa's share)

_____

<em>Check</em>

$600 + 75 + 750 + 75 + 1500 = $3000 . . . as it should

Treatment 1 ____ 5 _______ 4

Treatment 2 ____ 10 ______ 8

Treatment 3 ____ 5 _______ 9

Sample size = (5 + 10 + 5). = 20

Overall mean = ((5*4). + (10*8) + (5*9)) / 20

What is the solution to this system of equations?
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

c

Step-by-step explanation:

Since both equations express y in terms of x we can equate the right sides

3x + 5 = - x + 3 ( add x to both sides )

4x + 5 = 3 ( subtract 5 from both sides )

4x = - 2 ( divide both sides by 4 )

x = - 0.5

substitute x = - 0.5 in either of the 2 equations

using y = - x + 3 then y = 0.5 + 3 = 3.5

solution is (- 0.5, 3.5 ) → c
