Manoj and Tamar are arguing about how a number trick they heard goes. Tamar tells their friend Andrew to think of a number, mult

iply it by five, and subtract three from the result. Then Manoj tells Andrew to think of a number, add five, and multiply the result by three. Andrew says that whichever way he does the trick he gets the same answer. What was Andrew's number? Justify your answer.

X - Andrew`s number;
x * 5 - 3 = ( x + 5 ) * 3
5 x - 3 = 3 x + 15
5 x - 3 x = 15 + 3
2 x = 18
x = 18 : 2
x = 9
Andrew`s number is 9.
Justify:
9 - 5 - 3 = 45 - 3 = 42
( 9 + 5 ) * 3 = 14 * 3 = 42

Help ASAP!! Math problems
const2013 [10]

Answer:

7. C

8. D

Step-by-step explanation:

7. The interest rate is 8% or .08. You find that by solving I=Prt (interest=original amount*rate*time in years)

8. The discounted price would be $48 (80*(1-.40)) Then you multiply that 48 by .08 and add that amount to the $48.

What is the equation of the line that passes through the point (4.11) and is perpendicular to the line with the following equati
Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

y = x +7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Point\ (x_1,y_1) = (4,11)

Perpendicular to y = -x + 14

Required

Determine the line equation

An equation has the form

y = mx + b

Where

m = slope

By comparison with y = -x + 14

m = -1

Because the line is perpendicular to y = -x + 14, the following relationship exists

m_1 = \frac{-1}{m} i.e. the condition for perpendicularity

Where m1 is the slope of the equation that passes through Point\ (x_1,y_1) = (4,11)

So, we have:

m_1 = \frac{-1}{-1}

m_1 = 1

The line equation is then calculated using:

y - y_1 = m_1(x - x_1)

Where

m_1 = 1

Point\ (x_1,y_1) = (4,11)

So, we have:

y - 11 = 1(x - 4)

y - 11 = x - 4

Add 11 to both sides

y - 11+11 = x - 4+11

y = x - 4+11

y = x +7
