<span>Cross multiply
26*5x = 849 * 57
130 x = 48393
x = 48393 / 130
x = 372.25</span>
Problem 3: Let x = price of bag of pretzels Let y = price of box of granola bars
We have Lesley's purchase: 4x+2y=13.50
And Landon's: 1x+5y=17.55
We can use the elimination method. Let's negate Landon's purchase by multiplying by -1. -1x-5y=-17.55
We add this four times to Lesley's purchase to eliminate the x variable.
2y-20y=13.50-70.2
-18y=-56.7
y = $3.15 = Price of box of granola bars
Plug back into Landon's purchase to solve for pretzels.
x+5*3.15=17.55
x+15.75=17.55
x = $1.80 = price of bag of pretzels
Problem 4.
Let w = number of wood bats sold
Let m = number of metal bats sold
From sales information we have: w + m = 23
24w+30m=606
Substitution works well here. Solve for w in the first equation, w = 23 - m, and plug this into the second.
24*(23-m)+30m=606
552-24m+30m=606
6m=54
m=9 = number of metal bats sold
Therefore since w = 23-m, w = 23-9 = 14. 14 wooden bats were sold.
Because segments XY and XZ are of equal length, angle Y and angle Z must be congruent.
All inner angles must add to 180 degrees since it's a triangle.
70+70+x=180
140+x=180
x=40
Final answer: D
Answer: $65 lol
Step-by-step explanation:
I don't know if you meant profit or markup but,
take the difference of $80 & $50 = $30
What percent of 50 is 30? It's 3/5 or 60%. So there is a 60% markup on the original price of 50$.
