Answer:

The answer to your question is: 7 1/3 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

1 inch --------- 15 miles

Distance from Richmond to Washington = 110 miles

Use a rule of three to solve it

        1 inch ----------------- 15 miles

        x    --------------------  110 miles

x = 110x 1 /15

x = 110 / 15   simplify            dividing by 5

x = 22/3

Convert it to a mix number

22/3 = 7 1/3 inches

You know that 4 notebooks and 3 pens cost $96, while 2 pens and 2 notebooks cost
bija089 [108]

Answer:

Let p be the number of pens and let n be the number of notebooks.

4 notebooks + 3 pens cost $96 so 4n + 3p = 96

2 notebooks + 2 pens cost $54 so 2n + 2p = 54

We find n and p by solving the system of linear equations:

4n + 3p = 96

2n + 2p = 54

4n + 3p = 96

4n + 4p = 108 (we multiply this by 2 to cancel out 4n in both equations)

We then subtract the two equations:

(4n + 3p) - (4n + 4p) = 96 - 108

-p = -12

p = 12

So, a pen costs 12 dollars. We can use p to find n. We substitute 12 for p in one of our earlier equations:

2n + 2p = 54

2n + 2(12) = 54

2n + 24 = 54

2n = 30

n = 15

So, a notebook costs 15 dollars and a pen costs 12. Now, we need to find the cost of 8 notebooks and 7 pens:

8n + 7p = ?

8(15) + 7(12) = ?

120 + 84 = 204.

Thus, 8 notebooks and 7 pens cost 204 dollars (why is it so expensive lol).

The lengths of the sides of a triangle are x,x+1 and 7 centimeters and the perimeter of the triangle is 56 centimeters. The equa
____ [38]

Answer:

the longest side is 25

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation would be x+ x+1 + 7  for the 3 sides of the triangle

x + (x+1) + 7=56

combine like terms

2x+8 = 56

subtract 8 from each side

2x = 48

divide by 2

x = 24

the sides are

x=24

x+1 = 25

7

the longest side is 25
