9514 1404 393

Answer:

  367.92

Step-by-step explanation:

72 = 9·8

In order for the total cost to be divisible by both 8 and 9, it must meet a couple of requirements:

  • The sum of the digits must be divisible by 9.
  • The last three digits must be divisible by 8.

In order for the sum of digits to be divisible by 9, the first and last digits must total 5 or 14. (The total of existing digits is 22. The sum needs to be 27 or 36.)

In order for the last three digits to be divisible by 8, the last digit must be 2*. So, the first digit must be 5-2=3.

The first digit is 3; the last digit is 2.

The total cost is 367.92. Each item price is 367.92/72 = $5.11.

_____

* 790/8 = 98.75, so (790 + 2)/8 will be 99. <em>792</em> is the only number starting with <em>79</em> that is divisible by 8.

eliminate y's
multily 2nd equaiton by -4 and add to top one

x-4y=-12

-15x=-60
divide both sides by -15
x=4

x-4y=-12
4-4y=-12
minus 4 both sides
-4y=-16
divide both sides by -4

Raman mixed juice and water in the ratio 2 : 3 and Meera mixed juice and water in the ratio 1 : 4. They then mixed 150 ml of Ram
Kay [80]

Answer:

80

Step-by-step explanation:

ramans ratio is 2:3

so in 150ml there are 2 parts of juice and 3 parts of water

2x + 3x = 150

x = 30

so, juice in 150 ml of raman's mixture = 2x = 2* 30 = 60ml

meera ratio is 1:4

similarly,

1y + 4y = 100

y = 20

so, juice in 100 ml of meera's mixture is y = 20ml

so, quanitity of juice in final mixture is 60 + 20 = 80

Express the product of the following<br> binomials as a trinomial:<br> (x+5)(x+8)
NeX [460]

Answer:

x^2+13x+40

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, use the FOIL method. Multiply the first terms, then the outside, then the inside and finally the last terms.

We have the binomials:

(x+5) and (x+8)

The first terms are x and x. The outside terms are x and 8. The inside terms are 5 and x. The last terms are 5 and 8.

Multiply these values.

F (first): x and x

x*x= x^2

O (outside): x and 8

x*8=8x

I (Inside): x and 5

x*5=5x

L ( Last): 5 and 8

5*8=40

Now, add all the products together.

x^2+8x+5x+40

Combine like terms. In this case, the like terms are 8x and 5x.

x^2+13x+40

The final trinomial (three terms) is: x^2+13x+40
