X= weight of TV
y= weight of CD

3x+5y= 62.5
3x+ 2y= 52
You can either solve for a variable, or eliminate a variable by subtracting the second equation from the first:

3x + 5y = 62.5
-(3x+2y = 52)
0 + 3y = 10.5, so y = 10.5/3 or 3.5.

Now plug y= 3.5 back into any equation to get x:

3x + 5(3.5) = 62.5
3x + 17.5 = 62.5
3x = 45
x = 15
Always check work. Both equations should be true for x=15, y= 3.5

Simplify the expression(a4−6a2b2+ b4)−(−2a4+5a2b2+ 3b4) and hence, find its value for a = 2and b = −1.
ELEN [110]

Answer:

(a) 3a^4 - 11a^2b^2 -2b^4

(b) 3a^4 - 11a^2b^2 -2b^4= 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

(a^4 - 6a^2b^2+ b^4) - (-2a^4+5a^2b^2+ 3b^4)

Solving (a): Simplify

(a^4 - 6a^2b^2+ b^4) - (-2a^4+5a^2b^2+ 3b^4)

Open brackets

a^4 - 6a^2b^2+ b^4 +2a^4-5a^2b^2- 3b^4

Collect Like Terms

a^4 +2a^4- 6a^2b^2-5a^2b^2+ b^4 - 3b^4

Simplify Like Terms

3a^4 - 11a^2b^2 -2b^4

Solving (b): Simplify when a = 2 and b = -1

3a^4 - 11a^2b^2 -2b^4

3*(2)^4 - 11*(2^2)*(-1)^2 -2*(-1)^4

3 * 16 - 11 * 4 * 1 - 2 * 1

48 - 44 - 2

= 2

Hence:

3a^4 - 11a^2b^2 -2b^4= 2

A box of spaghetti at the grocery store is purchased for $1.60 wholesale and is marked up by 60 percent. Then, the store marks d
Nata [24]

Answer:

the answer is $8.29

Step-by-step explanation:

1.60 marked up by 60% in decimal form is .60

multiply that .60 by 1.60 and you get .64

you add .64 to 1.60 and you get 2.56

you multiply 2.56 by 3 and you get 7.68

you have a 8% sales tax so you multiply 0.08 by 7.68

you will get .61 you add that to 7.68 to get $8.29

The value of the solid’s surface area is equal to the value of the solid’s
Katen [24]

Answer:

1. x = 15 in

2. x = 8 m

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Given:

length = 10 in

width = 3 in

height = x in

surface area of the rectangular prism = its volume

Required:

Value of x

Area = 2(wl + hl + hw)

Volume = l*w*h

Therefore:

2(3*10 + x*10 + x*3) = 10*3*x

2(30 + 10x + 3x) = 30x

2(30 + 13x) = 30x

60 + 26x = 30x

Subtract 26x from both sides

60 + 26x - 26x = 30x - 26x

60 = 4x

Divide both sides by 4

60/4 = 4x/4

15 = x

x = 15 in

2. Given:

length = 8 m

width = 4 m

height = x m

surface area of the rectangular prism = its volume

Required:

Value of x

Area = 2(wl + hl + hw)

Volume = l*w*h

Therefore:

2(4*8 + x*8 + x*4) = 8*4*x

2(32 + 8x + 4x) = 32x

2(32 + 12x) = 32x

64 + 24x = 32x

Subtract 24x from both sides

64 + 24x - 24x = 32x - 24x

64 = 8x

Divide both sides by 8

64/8 = 8x/8

8 = x

x = 8 m
