He sold 76 shirts and 24 pants.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Cost of one t-shirt = $20

Cost of one pants = $45

Total items sold = 100

Total sales = 2600

Let,

x be the number of t-shirts

y be the number of pants

According to given statement;

x+y=100    Eqn 1

20x+45y=2600   Eqn 2

Multiplying Eqn 1 by 20

20(x+y=100)\\20x+20y=2000\ \ \ Eqn\ 3

Subtracting Eqn 3 from Eqn 2

(20x+45y)-(20x+20y)=2600-2000\\20x+45y-20x-20y=600\\25y=600

Dividing both sides by 25

\frac{25y}{25}=\frac{600}{25}\\y=24

Putting in Eqn 1

x+24=100\\x=100-24\\x=76

He sold 76 shirts and 24 pants.

-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

The weight of large and small box are 18.25 kg and 13.25 kg respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the weight of large and small box are x and y respectively.

It is given that a delivery of 5 large boxes and 3 small boxes has a total weight of 131 kilograms.

5x+3y=131                .... (1)

A delivery of 2 large boxes and 6 small boxes has a total weight of 116 kilograms.

2x+6y=116                .... (2)

On solving (1) and (2) using graphing calculator, we get

x=18.25

y=13.25

Therefore the weight of large and small box are 18.25 kg and 13.25 kg respectively.

Yvonne bought a car for $10,300. After 3 years, the value of the car was $6,250. The value of this car decreases exponentially o
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

A = $44,778.84

A = P + I where

P (principal) = $10,300.00

I (interest) = $34,478.84 or 12 months

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Yvonne bought a car for $10,300. After 3 years, the value of the car was $6,250. 50%

To find: In approximately what number of additional months will the value of Yvonne’s car be 50% of the price she originally paid?

Formula: (\frac{interest rate}{number of payments}) × loan principal = interest

Solution:  Divide your interest rate by the number of payments you’ll make in the year (interest rates are expressed annually). So, for example, if you’re making monthly payments, divide by 12. Multiply it by the balance of your loan, which for the first payment, will be your whole principal amount.

(This gives you the amount of interest you pay the first month.)

First, convert R as a percent to r as a decimal

r = R/100

r = 50/100

r = 0.5 rate per year,

Then solve the equation for A

A = P(1 + r/n)nt

A = 10,300.00(1 + 0.5/12)(12)(3)

A = 10,300.00(1 + 0.041666667)(36)

A = $44,778.84

Henceforth:

The total amount accrued, principal plus interest, with compound interest on a principal of $10,300.00 at a rate of 50% per year compounded 12 times per year over 3 years is $44,778.84.

What is an equation in slope-intercept form of the line that passes through the points (−2, −2) and (1, 7)? A.y = 4x + 3 B.y − 7
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

C.y = 3x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

We have two points, so we can find the slope

m = (y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)

   = (7--2)/ (1--2)

   = (7+2)/(1+2)

    = 9/3

    =3

The slope is 3

We can find the point slope form of the line

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

y-7 = 3(x-1)

Distribute

y-7 =3x-3

Add 7 to each side

y-7+7 = 3x-3+7

y = 3x+4

This is in slope intercept form (y=mx+b)
