Answer: (3, 6)
Step-by-step explanation:
3x + y = 15
y = 2x
Using substitution:
3x + 2x = 15
5x = 15
x = 15/5
x = 3
y = 2x
y = 2 * 3
y = 6
x = 3
y = 6
= (3, 6)
So you do $90 times .40 because 40%=.40 then next you set up your problem
90x.40=36
In total the sales price is $36
Answer:
9x - 2x + 62 = 9x + 24
Number of correct answer each obtained = 19
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Number of correct answers = x
POINTS for correct answers = 9
POINTS for incorrect answers = - 2
SCHOOL A:
Number of correct answers = x
Number of incorrect answers = x
Initial point = 62
Initial point + 9(number of correct answers) + - 2(number of incorrect answers)
62 + 9x - 2x
SCHOOL B :
Number of correct answers = x
Number of incorrect answers = 0
Initial point = 24
Initial point + 9(number of correct answers) + - 2(number of incorrect answers
24 + 9x
Since they end up tied :
School A = School B
62 + 9x - 2x = 24 + 9x
9x - 2x + 62 = 9x + 24
Number of correct answers gotten :
9x - 2x + 62 = 9x + 24
7x + 62 = 9x + 24
7x - 9x = 24 - 62
-2x = - 38
x = 19
Hence, Number of correct answers each obtained = 19
Answer:
day 540
Step-by-step explanation:
He increases his number of situps by 2 each day meaning on day 1 he'd do 2 extra, on day 2 he'd do 4 extra, on day he'd do 6 extra etc. We can show this by saying +2x where x is the day he is on. Then since he started with 20 we have to add 20 so it would be 20+2x. We want to know what day it is when he does 1100 situps so we can set our equation equal to 1100 and solve for X which is the day it would be.
20+2x=1100
2x=1080
I hope this helps and please don't hesitate to ask if there is anything still unclear!
x=540
