Answer:

The cost of each bracelet is: $7

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call x the cost of each bracelet.

Then the cost of the 9 bracelets is:

9x

If we know that the cost of the bracelets plus the shipping was $ 72 and the cost of shipping is $ 9.

So

The total cost was:

9x + 9 = 72

Now we solve the equation for the variable x.

9x + 9 = 72

Subtract 9 on both sides of equality

9x + 9-9 = 72-9

9x = 72-9

9x = 63

Divide by 9 on both sides of equality

\frac{9}{9}x = \frac{63}{9}

x = \frac{63}{9}

x = \$7

Answer:

a) Equation: 9x+9 = 72

b) x =7

Step-by-step explanation:

The total cost of 9 bracelets = $72

Shipping charge = $9

a) Define your variable and write an equation that models the cost of each bracelet.

Let x be the cost of one bracelet, the equation will be

9x + 9 = 72

As 9 bracelets were there and the shipping cost was 9 and total cost was 72.

b) Use the equation you have written above determine the cost for each bracelet. Show the algebraic steps that it takes to find the answer.

Now solving the equation to find the value of x that represent cost of each bracelet

9x + 9 = 72

Adding -9 on both sides

9x +9 -9 = 72 -9

9x = 63

Dividing both sides by 9

9x/9 = 63/9

x = 7

The value of x=7 so, the cost of each bracelet is $7

c) Provide your conclusion.

So, each bracelet was of cost $7 and $9 was the shipping charge. so, the total cost is $72.

We would check whether our equation is satisfied.

9x+ 9 = 72

9(7) + 9 = 72

63 + 9 = 72

72 = 72

The equation is satisfied.

The diameter of holes for a cable harness is known to have a normal distribution with σ = 0.01 inches. A random sample of size 1
Rama09 [41]

Answer: (1.4964, 1.5126)

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the confidence interval for population mean is given by :-

\overline{x}\ \pm z*\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

, where {\sigma= population standard deviation.

n= sample size

\overline{x} = Sample mean

As per given , we have

σ = 0.01 inches

n= 10

\overline{x}=1.5045

Also, the critical value for 99% confidence interval = z*=2.576 [From x-value table.]

[Significance level =1-0.99=0.01 and z_{\alpha/2}\ at\ \alpha=0.01 is 2.576.]

Then, the 99% two-sided confidence interval on the mean hole diameter will be :-

1.5045\ \pm (2.576)\dfrac{0.01}{\sqrt{10}}\\\\\approx1.5045\pm(2.576)(0.00316)=1.5045\pm0.00814016=(1.5045-0.00814016,\ 1.5045+0.00814016)\\\\=(1.49635984,\ 1.51264016)\approx(1.4964,\ 1.5126)

Hence, the required confidence interval = (1.4964, 1.5126)

If line VX is the bisector of angle V, find the perimeter of triangle VUW .
umka21 [38]
Since VX is the bisector of angle V and < VXU is a right angle then  UX is congruent to XW and triangle VUW is isosceles with VU = VW.

3z - 4 = x + 6
2z = 10
z = 5

so UW = 3(5) - 4 + 5 + 6  = 22
and VW = 5(5) - 1 = 24

VU = VW = 24 

perimeter = 2(24) + 22 =  70

Arlene is comparing the prices of two truck rental companies. Company A charges $7 per hour and an additional $30 as service cha
max2010maxim [7]
Part A:
Company A:  $7 per hour +$30 service charge =money spent
Company B:  $8 per hour +$40 service charge =money spent

Part B:
Company A:  $7(8)+$30 = $86
Company B:  $8(8)+$40 = $104

Part C:
Company A:  $7(2)+$30 = $44
Company B:  $8(2)+$40 = $56
      You would save $12 if you use Company A instead of Company B's truck rental.
