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.

Please help!<br><br>if rstu is a rhombus, find m&lt;uts ​
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

\angle UTS = 40

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment

Required

Find \angle UTS

From the attachment:

\angle RSU = 70

Because it is a rhombus (all equal sides), then the following relationship exists between the angles

\angle RSU = \angle SUR = 70

Considering triangle RSU.

\angle RSU + \angle SUR + \angle URS = 180

This gives:

70 + 70 + \angle URS = 180

140 + \angle URS = 180

\angle URS = 180-140

\angle URS = 40

<em></em>\angle UTS = \angle URS = 40<em> --- Opposite angle of a rhombus</em>
