Let the unknown number be x.

x × -7 = 7 (x + -40)

-7x = 7x - 280

-14x = -280

x = 280/14

x = 20

Hope this helps!

The estimated total cost, y, of a child’s toy is partially based on the number of batteries used, x. The cost of one battery is
mixas84 [53]

Answer: The equation that represents the give situation is, y = 0.75 x + 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, x represents the number of batteries the child bought and y represents the total cost.

Since, the cost of one batteries = $ 0.75

⇒ The cost of x batteries = 0.75 x

The cost of one toy = $ 12

Hence, the total cost = The cost of one toy + The cost of x batteries

= y = 0.75 x + 12

Which is the required equation that represents the given situation.

If someone has 8 fl. oz. of 16% wine, how many standard drinks has that person consumed?
UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

2.1 standard drinks

(or 2 if you need to round to the nearest whole number)

Step-by-step explanation:

The ABV (alcohol by volume) percentage is a measure of the amount of pure alcohol (as a percentage) of the total volume of liquid in a drink.

So for 16% wine, this means that 16% of the volume of the wine is pure alcohol.

Therefore, if 16% of 8 fl oz is pure alcohol, this means that 1.28 fl oz of the 8 fl oz is pure alcohol (since 0.16 × 8 = 1.28).

One standard drink ≈ 0.6 fl oz pure alcohol

To calculate the number of standard drinks, divide the total amount of pure alcohol found by the amount in one standard drink:

1.28 ÷ 0.6 = 2.1

Therefore there is approximately 2.1 standard drinks in 8 fl oz of 16% wine.

Rewrite 3x+5y=11 and -5x+7y=9 in slope intercept form
chubhunter [2.5K]

Problem 1

subtract 3 x

5y=-3x+11

divide 5

y=3/5x+2.2'

Problem 2

add 5x

7y=5x+9

divide 7

y=5/7x+1.3'

'notice'

you can put 2.2 into a fraction (11/5) and 1.3 (9/7) if your teacher allows it, but i put them into decimals
