After sale, the price is $135
75% is $135

so 100%
(135/75) * 100
(135/3) * 4
45 * 4
$ 180

No, because postulates are assumptions. Some true, some not. So it can't be used to prove it

A rectangular piece of metal is 25 in longer than it is wide. Squares with sides 5 in long are cut from the four corners and the

Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

The original length was 41 inches and the original width was 16 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the original length of the piece of metal

y ----> the original width of the piece of metal

we know that

When squares with sides 5 in long are cut from the four corners and the flaps are folded upward to form an open box

The dimensions of the box are

$L=(x-10)\ in\\W=(y-10)\ in\\H=5\ in$

The volume of the box is equal to

$V=(x-10)(y-10)5$

$V=930\ in^3$

$930=(x-10)(y-10)5$

simplify

$186=(x-10)(y-10)$ -----> equation A

Remember that

The piece of metal is 25 in longer than it is wide

$x=y+25$ ----> equation B

substitute equation B in equation A

$186=(y+25-10)(y-10)$

solve for y

$186=(y+15)(y-10)\\186=y^2-10y+15y-150\\y^2+5y-336=0$

Solve the quadratic equation by graphing

using a graphing tool

The solution is y=16

see the attached figure

Find the value of x

$x=16+25=41$

therefore

The original length was 41 inches and the original width was 16 inches

3x - 3y = 9 and x + 3y = 12 Elimination

Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

$x=5.25,y=2.25$

Step-by-step explanation:

We can add the two equations to eliminate the variable $y$ and solve for $x$ :

$3x-3y+x+3y=9+12$

$4x=21$

$x=5.25$

Now, we can use substitution to solve for $y$ :

$x+3y=12$ (given)

$5.25+3y=12$

$3y=12-5.25$

$=6.75$

$y=2.25$

Hope this helps :)
