x - 3y = 6 and x + y = 110 represents the system of equations used to find x, the number of CDs she sold last week, and y, the number of CDs she sold this week

number of CDs Kitts sold last week "x" is 84 and number of CDs she sold this week "y" is 26

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

Let "x" be the number of CDs Kitts sold last week

Let "y" be the number of CDs she sold this week

<em><u>Given that Last week she sold 6 more than 3 times the number of CDs that she sold this week</u></em>

Number of CDs Kitts sold last week = 6 + 3(number of CDs that she sold this week)

x = 6 + 3y ----- eqn 1

x - 3y = 6 ------- eqn 2

<em><u>Given that Ms. Kitts sold a total of 110 CDs over the 2 weeks</u></em>

Number of CDs Kitts sold last week + number of CDs she sold this week = 110

x + y = 110 ----- eqn 3

Thus eqn 2 and eqn 3 represents the system of equations used to find x, the number of CDs she sold last week, and y, the number of CDs she sold this week

<em><u>Let us solve the above equations to find values of "x" and "y"</u></em>

Substitute eqn 1 in eqn 3

6 + 3y + y = 110

6 + 4y = 110

4y = 104

<h3>y = 26</h3>

From eqn 3,

x + 26 = 110

x = 110 - 26 = 84

<h3>x = 84</h3>

Thus number of CDs Kitts sold last week = x = 84

Number of CDs she sold this week = y = 26

PLEASE HELP LATS MATH PROBLEM <br> A, B and C
Llana [10]

Answer:

a) Set up triangles where the hypotenuse is 16ft (the ladder) and one of the two edges are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5ft (the base of the ladder).  Use a^2 + b^2 = c^2 where a is the base length, c is the hypotenuse and b is the value you are trying to find.

Ex w/ 1ft base:

1^2 + b^2 = 16^2

1 + b^2 = 256

b^2 = 255

b = 15.97ft.

b) Simply take your answers from part a) and add 5.5ft (the height of the girl) to them.

Ex w/ 1ft base:

15.97ft + 5.5ft = 21.47ft

c) Using logic here think about it.  Let's take the 1ft base as the example.  Marissa standing on top of the ladder is 21.47ft.  That's clearly not high enough to reach the cat . . . but what happens if Marissa reaches upwards.  As long as her arms can reach roughly 1.53ft above her head she should be able to reach it.

The sales tax in your state is 5% if a car costs $24,600 what is the total cost including tax?
Svetach [21]
<h2>Greetings!</h2>

Answer:

$25830

Step-by-step explanation:

If 100% of the car price is 24,600 , then you can imagine that extra 5% being added to this

100 + 5 = 105

So you need to find what 105% of the cost was.

To do this you can use the percentage formula:

Amount x \frac{percentage}{100}

Now, you can simply plug the values into this

24,600 x \frac{105}{100}

24600 x 1.05 = 25830

<h3>So the total cost including tax would be $25830!</h3><h3 /><h2>Hope this helps!</h2>

Kaylee invested $910 in an account paying an interest rate of 2.6% compounded
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

$1,179

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets use the compound interest formula provided to solve this:

A=P(1+\frac{r}{n} )^{nt}

<em>P = initial balance</em>

<em>r = interest rate (decimal)</em>

<em>n = number of times compounded annually</em>

<em>t = time</em>

<em />

First, lets change 2.6% into a decimal:

2.6% -> \frac{2.6}{100} -> 0.026

Since the interest is compounded quarterly, we will use 4 for n. Lets plug in the values now:

A=910(1+\frac{0.026}{4})^{4(10)}

A=1,179.21

The account balance after 10 years will be $1,179
