Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If Amy started with 28 dollars and bought 7 pens, then had 20.30 dollars, we can subtract to find the price of all 7 pens.
28-20.30=7.70 dollars
now to find the amount for EACH pen, we divide by 7
7.70/7=1.1
each pen costed Amy 1 dollar and 10 cents with tax
Answer:
0.2
Step-by-step explanation:
1/10 = 0.1
10/100 = 0.1
0.1+0.1 = 0.2
Answer:
-3<x<3
Step-by-step explanation:
let y=0
0=x^2-9
0=(x+3)(x-3)
x=-3 and x=+3
Answer:
5cm by 1.95cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the length of the rectangle be x
Let the width be y
Perimeter of a rectangle = 2x + 2y
If the initial perimeter of a rectangle is about 13.9 cm, then;
13.9 = 2x + 2y ..... 1
If when the width is double the perimeter is 17.8cm, then;
17.8 = 2x + 4y ..... 2
Subtract 1 from 2;
13.9 - 17.8 = 2y - 4y
- 3.9 = -2y
y = 3.9/2
y = 1.95 cm
Substitute y = 1.95 into 1 to get x;
From 1;
13.9 = 2x + 2y
13.9 = 2x + 2(1.95)
13.9 = 2x + 3.9
2x = 13.9-3.9
2x = 10
x = 5 cm
Hence the dimension of the smaller triangle is 5cm by 1.95cm
