Suppose Alex has 3x stamps, Freddy has 5x stamps. After Freddy gives Alex 10 stamps, Alex has 3x+10 while Freddy has 5x-10
the new ratio is 7 to 9, so we have the equation: (3x+10)/(5x-10)=7/9
9(3x+10)=7(5x-10)
27x+90=35x-70
160=8x
x=20
So Alex has 3*20=60 stamps while Freddy has 5*20=100. Together they have 160

Answer:

160 stamps

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose Alex has 3x stamps, Freddy has 5x stamps. After Freddy gives Alex 10 stamps, Alex has 3x+10 while Freddy has 5x-10

The new ratio is 7 to 9, so we have the equation: (3x+10)/(5x-10)=7/9

9(3x+10)=7(5x-10)

27x+90=35x-70

160=8x

x=20

So Alex has 3*20=60 stamps while Freddy has 5*20=100. Together they have

dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

a.

O is the origin, so its abscissa is 0. O: 0

The only point 4 units from O is A, so A: 4

Point C has a positive abscissa like A.

Points B and C have opposite abscissas. The only opposites are -3 and 3, but C is positive, and B is negative.

B: -3

C: 3

D: -4.5

E: -6

M = (4 + (-6))/2 = -1. M: -1

b.

OB = |0 - (-3)| = |3| = 3

DA = |-4.5 - 4| = |-8.5| = 8.5

Answer:

I cannot see the x values so I cannot help with part D, but part C is y=3.50x+9.50

Step-by-step explanation:

the question states there is a fee of 9.50 for shipping costs, which is constant. this means it will be the y intercept in addition, since each shirt costs 3.50 each, the equation is y=3.50x+9.50
