Answer:

the price of good x in 1999 dollars is 370.89 dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that good x sold for $40 in 1945. the Cpi in 1945 was 18.0 and the cpi in 1999 was 166.6.

We have cpi and sale price have direct variation

In other words S = kC where C = CPi and S = sales price

In 1945, 40 = 18k or K = 20/9

Using this we can say

Sales price in 1999 would be k (166.6)

=\frac{20}{9} (166.6)\\= 370.89

the price of good x in 1999 dollars is 370.89 dollars

I am very confused with this. This is a algebra 1 question x-2x-2=-(x+4)-4
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

-3=x

Step-by-step explanation:

First you must add the X's on each side which gives you: 1x-2= -x - 4 - 4

Next you must add the first number 4 to the - 2 on the other side.

Then you do the exact same thing with the other number 4.

After that you get 1x+6=-x, then you subtract the 1 x with the -x to get 6= -2x.

Finally divide  both sides by 2 and your final answer is -3 = x

Katarina [22]

Answer:

<u>There are 300 chapter books and 200 picture books in the children's section at the local library.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information given to us to answer the question correctly:

Number of books in the children's section at the local library = 500

Ratio 2:3 for picture books and chapter books

2. How many chapter books are in the section?

We will use the Rule of Three Simple for answering this question, this way:

Chapter books       Total books

3                                  5

x                                 500

x * 5 = 500 * 3

5x = 1,500

x = 1,500/5

x = 300

<u>There are 300 chapter books and 200 picture books in the children's section at the local library.</u>

X^2 + 4x + 4 = 0<br>please help!! I missed class! show steps!​
Stels [109]

Answer:

x= -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1. In order to find the zeros of the function, we must factor it.

Step 2. To factor this, we have to find  two numbers that multiply to 4 and add to 4 which is 2 ( 2*2=4 and 2+2=4)

step 3. 0=(x+2)(x+2)

Step 4 make (x+2) equal to zero and solve which gives us -2, so -2 =x.
