x = # of ham sandwiches
14-x = # of turkey sandwiches ( as Lexi made 14 sandwiches)
as the question said that the number of ha sandwiches are 4 less than twice number of turkey sandwiches,
x = 2 * (14-x) - 4 = 24 - 2x
3x=24
x = 8
the number of ham sandwiches is 8, and the number of turkey sandwiches is 14-8=6
Answer:
L = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
use Pythagorean Theorem:
L² + (5
)² = (10
)²
L² + 25(2) = 100(3)
L² + 50 = 300
L² = 250
L = 
= 
· = 5
Answer:
y = 
x - 1
Step-by-step explanation:
5x + 2y = 12
2y = -5x + 12
y = x + 6
y = mx + b
4 = ( -2 ) + b
4 = 5 + b
b = -1
y = x - 1
Answer:
At 7% $54,000
At 9% $156,000
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the amount invested at 7%, Then 2x + 48000 will be the amount invested at 9%
We know that:
7% = 0.07 & 9% = 0.09
So we can write the interest equation as follows:
0.07x + 0.09 (2x + 48000) = 17820
0.07x + 0.18x + 4320 = 17820
0.25x + 4320 = 17820
Subtracting 4320 from both sides of the equation we get:
0.25x = 17820 - 4320
0.25x = 13500
Dividing both sides of the equation by 0.25 we get:
x = 13500 / 0.25
x = $54,000 invested at 7%
&
2 x 54000 + 48000
= $156,000 invested at 9%
Hence the amount invested at 7% is $54,000.
& the amount invested at 9% is $156,000.
