Answer:

Julie bought 40 postcards and 100 stamps.

Step-by-step explanation:

Write the equation by adding the total values of each item.

0.41 (2p+20)+0.26p = 51.40

We can solve this equation for p to find the number of postcards.

0.41(2p+20)+0.26p =51.40

0.82p+8.20+0.26p=51.40

1.08p=43.2

p=40

So, the number of postcards she bought  is 40. Since the number of 41-cent stamps is 20 more than twice the number of postcards, the number of 41-cent stamps is 2(40)+20=100.

Stamps = 100, Postcards = 40

100 x 0.41 cents + 40 x 0.26 cents = $41 + $10.4 = $51.4

------ Solution-----

$0.41 x STAMPS + $0.26 x POSTCARDS = $51.4

1 STAMP = 20 + 2 x POSTCARDS

$0.41 x (20 + 2 x POSTCARDS) + $0.26 POSTCARDS  = $51.4

POSTCARDS = 40

STAMPS = 20 + 2 x 40 = 100

Question Category: Solving Quadratic Equations by Factoring Select the correct answer. Find the solution(s) for x in the equatio
Novay_Z [31]

Answer: x = 4; x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The directions specify to solve by factoring

x^2 - 9x + 20 = 0

To factor, find two numbers that add to -9 and multiply to 20

-5 and -4 work

-5 + (-4) = -9

-5 * -4 = 20

(x - 4)(x - 5) = 0

x = 4, x =5

I need help please and fast
patriot [66]

Answer:

20%

Step-by-step explanation:

The reason it is 20% is due to the fact that if you put it in a form showing 250/250 = 100/100 and put another proportional rate underneath it showing 200/250 = x/100, you would have to multiply the numerator of the fraction on the left by the denominator of the fraction on the right to get 20000. Now you divide 250 from 20000 and get x for 80, resulting in 80/100 or 80%. All you have to do now is subtract 100-80, which equals 20, resulting in 20%.

Hope that helps!! It's my first time in answering so, ya. ;D goodluck!

What is 1/2 times 6?
son4ous [18]
1/2 times 6 = 1/2 * 6
so in order to make this multiplication you have to turn 6 to a fraction, 6 is equal to 6/1
so , the way to multiply them is multiply the top with the top and it will be the top in the answer and the exact same with the bottoms

6*1= 6
2*1=2 

so the fraction is 6/2, since a fraction is basicly a division

6/2 = 3

so the answer to your question is 3

i hope i helped you
