I'm assuming the 59% achievement means, markup, so hmmmm well, if the bananas cost him $0.24 or 24cents per pound, so a markup of 59% is just 59% of 0.24 then.
whatever% of anything is just (whatever/100) * anything.
therefore, 59% of 0.24 is just (59/100) * 0.24, or 0.1416.
so, if we add 0.1416 to the 0.24, the selling price will be 0.3816, or just 38cents per pound of bananas.
The answer would be C. both plane A and B because it's on line s which lies on both planes.
Answer:
8x + 16y = 39 and
40x + 8y = 42
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the length of the blue tiles is b inches and that of the white tiles is w inches.
So, given that a row of 8 blue tiles and 16 white tiles has a length of 39 inches and a row of 40 blue tiles and 8 white tiles has a length of 42 inches.
Therefore, we can write the system of linear equations that represents the relationship between the length if a blue tile and a white tile in inches as
8x + 16y = 39 and
40x + 8y = 42 (Answer)
5x + y = -13.....multiply by -3
4x + 3y = -17
-----------------
-15x - 3y = 39 (result of multiplying by -3)
4x + 3y = -17
-----------------add
-11x = 22
x = -22/11
x = -2
5x + y = -13
5(-2) + y = -13
-10 + y = -13
y = -13 + 10
y = -3
solution (-2,-3)
