You can formulate your own equations by analyzing the given problem and its statements. You can do some illustrations so you can understand it better. Introduce some variables and the rest is algebra. For example:
An orange costs $2 while a banana costs $1.5. How many oranges and bananas do you have to buy such that the total cost would equal to $20. You bought a total of 12 fruits.
First, you have to introduce variables. Let 'x' be the number of oranges and 'y' be the number of bananas. One equation you can get from here is knowing the amount of total cost: 2x + 1.5y = 20. Then, the other equation would be knowing the amount of fruits: x+y=12. You have two unknowns and two equations. Hence, you can solve the problem. Solving them simultaneously, you would get that x=4 and y=8.
B. Between 20 and 25 minuets
Brooke's speed is decreasing between 20 and 25 minutes. According to the graph Brooke's speed is decreasing during that time period.
Answer:
z = 62
y = 117
Step-by-step explanation:
Z
118 and z are supplementary.
z + 118 = 180 Supplementary angles add to 180. Subtract 118 from both sides.
z = 180 - 118 Do the subtraction
z = 62 Answer
Y
The interior angles of all quadrilaterals (convex) add up to 360 degrees.
y + z + 84 + 97 = 360 Given
62 + y + 84 + 97=360 Add
y + 243 = 360 Subtract 243 from both sides
y = 360 - 243 combine
y = 117 Answer
Answer:
2a + 3b = 5
b = a - 5
Step-by-step explanation:
2a + 3b = 5
b = a - 5
You can write this another way:
2a + 3(a-5) = 5 ( I added the second formula in the first one )
Now you gotta factor out:
2a + 3a - 15 = 5
Here im gonna do plus 15
2a + 3a = 20 ==> 5a = 20
Now if you divide by 5, you get: a = 4
Now you can fill in the second formula again
b = a - 5 (ill fill this in now)
b = 4 - 5 = -1
So, this makes:
a = 4 , b = -1
Answer : $3403.53
Detailed Solution:
<span>principal was 10,675
interest rate was 4.75% per year compounded annually.
additional $939.25 was paid in service charges.
payment on the principal plus interest is shown below:
pv = 10675
i = .0475/12 = .0039583333... per month.
n = 9 * 12 = 108 months.
fv = 0
pmt = 121.6635... per month
total finance charge would be (108 * 121.6635... + 939.25 - 10675).
that equals to 13139.66 + 939.25 - 10675 = 3403.91
