Let the total number of workers be x

Workers earning minimum wages=24

24=15% of x

Therefore,x*15/100=24

Taking 100 to RHS,x*15=24*100

x=2400/15

=160

A store has 40% off sale on headphones. With this discount, the price of one pair of headphones is $36.00

Nataliya [291]

40 % off means we pay 60 % (must total 100%)

original price * 60 % = 36.00

change percent to decimal

original price * .6 = 36

divide each side by .6

orginal price = 60

1. A system of equations to determine the cost of a bottle of juice, is <u>12x + 2.70 = 15.78</u>.

2. From the equation, x = $1.09.

<h3>What is an equation?</h3>

An equation is a mathematical statement that shows that two values are equal.

A system of equations uses numbers and variables.

<h3>Data and Calculations:</h3>

The cost price of a bag of chips = $2.70

The total cost of snacks = $15.78

The total cost of 12-pack of juice bottles = $13.08 ($15.78 - $2.70)

Therefore, a bottle of juice = $1.09 ($13.08/12)

<h3>Equations:</h3>

Let a bottle of juice = x

Total cost of snacks = $15.78

2.70 + 12x = 15.78

or 12x + 2.70 = 15.78

12x = 13.08

x = 1.09 (13.08/12)

Let f(x) = 7x^2-5x+3 and g(x) = 2x^2+4x-6

Troyanec [42]

Answer:

$\large\boxed{A.\ f(x)+g(x)=9x^2-x-3}\\\boxed{B.\ f(x)-g(x)=5x^2-9x+9}\\\boxed{g(x)-f(x)=-5x^2+9x-9}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$f(x)=7x^2-5x+3,\ g(x)=2x^2+4x-6\\\\A:\\f(x)+g(x)=(7x^2-5x+3)+(2x^2+4x-6)\\f(x)+g(x)=7x^2-5x+3+2x^2+4x-6\qquad\text{combine like terms}\\f(x)+g(x)=(7x^2+2x^2)+(-5x+4x)+(3-6)\\f(x)+g(x)=9x^2-x-3$

$B:\\f(x)-g(x)=(7x^2-5x+3)-(2x^2+4x-6)\\f(x)+g(x)=7x^2-5x+3-2x^2-4x+6\qquad\text{combine like terms}\\f(x)-g(x)=(7x^2-2x^2)+(-5x-4x)+(3+6)\\f(x)+g(x)=5x^2-9x+9$

$C:\\g(x)-f(x)=(2x^2+4x-6)-(7x^2-5x+3)\\g(x)-f(x)=2x^2+4x-6-7x^2+5x-3\qquad\text{combine like terms}\\g(x)-f(x)=(2x^2-7x^2)+(4x+5x)+(-6-3)\\g(x)-f(x)=-5x^2+9x-9$
