Answer:

Boxes sold first week = 104

Boxes sold second week =x+5= 104+5=109

Boxes sold third  week = 109 times 2= 218

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of boxes sold in first week

the girls sold 5 more boxes the second week

So number of boxes sold in second week is x+5

they double the sales of the second week for the third week

So number of boxes sold in third week is 2 (x+5)

Total boxes sold is 431

x+x+5+2(x+5)=431

x+x+5+2x+10=431

4x+15=431

subtract 15 from both sides

4x=416

divide by 4 on both sides

x=104

Boxes sold first week = 104

Boxes sold second week =x+5= 104+5=109

Boxes sold third  week = 104 times 2= 218

someone please help, write in point-slope form an equation of the line that passes through the point (8, 9) with slope 7.
Bess [88]

Answer:

y=7x-47

Step-by-step explanation:

(8, 9) = (x_1,y_1) \\ m = 7 \\ y  - y_1 = m(x - x _1) \\ y - 9 = 7(x - 8)

y - 9 = 7x - 56 \\ y = 7x - 56 + 9 \\ y = 7x - 47

Combine like terms 7a - a+ 16 = ?
dexar [7]
6a+16

Explanation:
If there's just a variable, there's an understood 1 in front of it. So what that really says is:

7a-1a+16

So, you combine the a's. 7a minus 1a is 6a. Same as 7-1,but you have a variable stuck on the end of it.

6a+16

The two circles shown above have radii of 8 in. and 2 in.
algol [13]

Answer:

1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

For the first circle 2 x 2in = 4 to find diameter

4 x 3.14 = 12.56

6in x 2 = 12

12 x 3.14 = 37.68

simplify

12.56/37.68

6.28/18.84

3.14/9.42

So the answer is 1/4 since 3.14 x 2 = 6.28

Also since the radius is 2 times longer
