3 folders cost $2.91 which equation would help determine the cost of 2 folders
eimsori [14]

Answer:

The equation that will determine the cost of two folders is;  3x = 2× $2.91

and  the cost of  the 2 folders is $1.94

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, we will follow the steps below;

Using proportion;

Let x be the cost of 2 folders

3 folders = $2.91

2 folders  =  x

Cross-multiply

3x = 2× $2.91

The equation that will determine the cost of two folders is

3x = 2× $2.91

We can go ahead and solve

3x = $5.82

Divide both-side of the equation by 3

\frac{3x}{3}  =  \frac{5.82}{3}

x = $ 1.94

The cost of 2 folders is $1.94

PLS HELP ME IS EZZZZZ
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

825.663706143591cm

Step-by-step explanation:

80cm × 4 = 320cm

100cm × 3 = 300cm

The radius is 40

40 × 2 = 80cm

Circumference is πd

π80 = 251.327412287183

÷ 2 = 125.663706143591cm

In total

320 + 300 + 80 + 125.663... =

825.663706143591cm

1.Show that the statement p: “If x is a real number such that x3 + 4x = 0, then x is 0” is true by
Genrish500 [490]

If x is a real number such that x3 + 4x = 0 then x is 0”.Let q: x is a real number such that x3 + 4x = 0 r: x is 0.i To show that statement p is true we assume that q is true and then show that r is true.Therefore let statement q be true.∴ x2 + 4x = 0 x x2 + 4 = 0⇒ x = 0 or x2+ 4 = 0However since x is real it is 0.Thus statement r is true.Therefore the given statement is true.ii To show statement p to be true by contradiction we assume that p is not true.Let x be a real number such that x3 + 4x = 0 and let x is not 0.Therefore x3 + 4x = 0 x x2+ 4 = 0 x = 0 or x2 + 4 = 0 x = 0 orx2 = – 4However x is real. Therefore x = 0 which is a contradiction since we have assumed that x is not 0.Thus the given statement p is true.iii To prove statement p to be true by contrapositive method we assume that r is false and prove that q must be false.Here r is false implies that it is required to consider the negation of statement r.This obtains the following statement.∼r: x is not 0.It can be seen that x2 + 4 will always be positive.x ≠ 0 implies that the product of any positive real number with x is not zero.Let us consider the product of x with x2 + 4.∴ x x2 + 4 ≠ 0⇒ x3 + 4x ≠ 0This shows that statement q is not true.Thus it has been proved that∼r ⇒∼qTherefore the given statement p is true.
