Answer:

14.3€

Step-by-step explanation:

Let:

C=Price\hspace{3}of\hspace{3}the\hspace{3}shirt\\P=Price\hspace{3}of\hspace{3}the\hspace{3}pants\\T=Total\hspace{3}cost

Now, let's write the data provided by the problem, using algebraic notation.

The total cost of the clothes is 20€, so:

P+C=T\\\\P+C=20

The price of the shirt is :

C=\frac{2}{5} P

Replacing this value into the first equation:

P+\frac{2}{5} P=20

Solving for P:

\frac{7}{5} P=20\\\\P=\frac{100}{7} \approx 14.3

So, the price of the pants is 14.3€ and the price of the shirt is:

C+14.3=20\\\\C=20-14.3=5.7

Translation:

Deja que:

C=Precio\hspace{3}de\hspace{3}la\hspace{3}camisa\\P=Precio\hspace{3}del\hspace{3}pantalon\\T=Costo\hspace{3}total

Ahora, escribamos los datos proporcionados por el problema, usando notación algebraica.

El costo total de la ropa es de 20 €, entonces:

P+C=T\\\\P+C=20

El precio de la camisa es:

C=\frac{2}{5} P

Reemplazando este valor en la primera ecuación:

P+\frac{2}{5} P=20

Resolviendo para P:

\frac{7}{5} P=20\\\\P=\frac{100}{7} \approx 14.3

Entonces, el precio del pantalón es de 14.3 € y el precio de la camisa es:

C+14.3=20\\\\C=20-14.3=5.7

GuDViN [60]

Answer:

  x = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Extend line AB so that it intersects ray CE at point G. Then angles BGC and BAD are "alternate interior angles", hence congruent.

The angle at B is exterior to triangle BCG, and is equal to the sum of the interior angles at C and G:

  138 = (376 -23x) +(x^2 -8x)

Subtracting 138 and collecting terms we have ...

  x^2 -31x +238 = 0

For your calculator, a=1, b=-31, c=238.

__

<em>Additional comment</em>

You will find that the solutions to this are x = {14, 17}. You will also find that angle BCE will have corresponding values of 54° and -15°. That is, the solution x=17 is "extraneous." It is a solution to the equation, but not to the problem.

For x=14, the marked angles are A = 84°, C = 54°.

Answer:

y = -3x

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the illustration of the graph, we can see that the line is going downhill.  This would indicate that the slope is negative, so the choices would be narrowed down y = -3x or y = -x.  Looking at the line, we can use two points to find the difference in 'y' over the difference in 'x', or slope.  Using the origin (0,0) as one point, we can go down 3 and over 1 to get to the second point of (1, -3).  This would be an overall change of -3, giving us the final answer of:

y = -3x
