You can use variables to solve this problem. Lets say that m is men, w is women, and c is children. m+w+c=266
four times as many men as children in ‘math words’ would be 4c=m
twice as many women as children would be 2c=w
what we can do now is plug those in to make everything easier with one variable
4c+2c+c=266
7c=266
c=38 now we have how many children, and we need to plug it back into what we have for women and men.
4c=m 4(38)=m m=152
2c=w 2(38)=w w=76


152 men, 76 women, and 38 children

Hisako sells dolls at her doll store. If she sells a doll for $35, and there is 6% sales tax, what is the tax amount a customer
Sloan [31]

Given:

The price of a doll = $35

Sales tax = 6%

To find:

The tax amount that a customer will pay on one doll.

Solution:

The price of doll is $35 and the sales tax is 6%, so the tax amount on a doll is 6% of 35.

\text{Tax amount}=35\times \dfrac{6}{100}

\text{Tax amount}=\dfrac{210}{100}

\text{Tax amount}=\dfrac{21}{10}

\text{Tax amount}=2.1

Therefore, the tax amount that a customer will pay on one doll is $2.1.

What is the equation (simplified) the inverse of y=2x^2?
Yuki888 [10]
2x^2=y\ \ \ |divide\ both\ sides\ by\ 2\\\\x^2=\dfrac{y}{2}\\\\\boxed{x=\sqrt{\frac{y}{2}}}\\\\x=\dfrac{\sqrt{y}}{\sqrt2}=\dfrac{\sqrt{y}\cdot\sqrt2}{\sqrt2\cdot\sqrt2}\to\boxed{x=\dfrac{\sqrt{2y}}{2}}\\\\\\\boxed{f(x)=2x^2\to f^{-1}(x)=\dfrac{\sqrt{2y}}{2}}
