Answer:

The rental cost of one movie is $2.25 and the rental cost of one video game is $6.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the rental cost of 1 movie be m.

Let the rental cost of 1 video game be v.

One month, Tammy rented 2 movies and 6 video games for a total of $42. This means that:

2m + 6v = 42 ________ (1)

The next month she rented 5 movies and 3 video games for a total of $30. This means that:

5m + 3v = 30 _________(2)

We now have two simultaneous equations:

2m + 6v = 42 ________ (1)

5m + 3v = 30 _________(2)

Multiply (2) by 2, and we have:

2m + 6v = 42 __________ (1)

10m + 6v = 60 _________ (3)

Subtract (1) from (3):

 10m + 6v = 60

-<u> 2m + 6v = 42</u>

 <u>  8m     =     18</u>

=> m = 18 / 8

m = $2.25

Put the value of m back in (1):

2(2.25) + 6v = 42

4.5 + 6v = 42

=> 6v = 42 - 4.5 = 37.5

v = 37.5 / 6

v = $6.25

Therefore, the rental cost of one movie is $2.25 and the rental cost of one video game is $6.25

estimate 0.00792398 to the nearest thousandth. Express your answer as a single-digit times a power of ten
Marianna [84]

Answer: \approx8*10^{-3}

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to round to the nearest thousandth, you must observe the digit to the right of the digit in the thousandth place and then:

  • If it is less than 5, you must round down.
  • If it is greater than or equal than 5, you must round up.

In this case, given the number:

0.00792398

You can notice that the digit to the right of the digit in the thousandth place is 9.

Since 9>5, you must round up. Then:

0.00792398\approx0.008

Finally, to express this as a single-digit times a power of ten, move the decimal point three places to the right. Then you get:

\approx8*10^{-3}

Answer:

10m x 15m

Step-by-step explanation:

You are given some information.

1. The area of the garden: A₁ = 150m²

2. The area of the path: A₂ = 186m²

3. The width of the path: 3m

If the garden has width w and length l, the area of the garden is:

(1) A₁ = l * w

The area of the path is given by:

(2) A₂ = 3l + 3l + 3w + 3w + 4*3*3 = 6l + 6w + 36

Multiplying (2) with l gives:

(3) A₂l = 6l² + 6lw + 36l

Replacing l*w in (3) with A₁ from (1):

(4) A₂l = 6l² + 6A₁ + 36l

Combining:

(5) 6l² + (36 - A₂)l +6A₁ = 0

Simplifying:

(6) l² - 25l + 150 = 0

This equation can be factored:

(7) (l - 10)*(l - 15) = 0

Solving for l we get 2 solutions:

l₁ = 10, l₂ = 15

Using (1) to find w:

w₁ = 15, w₂ = 10

The two solutions are equivalent. The garden has dimensions 10m and 15m.

Find the perimeter of a rectangle that is 2 and 1/2 yards by 4 and 1/2 yards
Travka [436]
The answer is 14. First, get both numbers and add them twice (2.5+2.5+4.5+4.5) or (2.5 * 2 + 4.5 * 2). Then you should get 2 numbers which are 9 and 5. Then it should be 14, which is the answer.
