Answer:

each notebook costs $2.70

each pack of pencils costs $1.50

Step-by-step explanation:

system of equations:

let p = pack of pencils

let n = notebook

3p + 5n = 18

4p + 4n = 16.8

I used the elimination method by multiplying the first equation by 4 and the second equation by -3

4(3p + 5n = 18)  =  12p + 20n = 72

-3(4p + 4n = 16.8)  =  -12p -12n = -50.4

adding the new equations together you get:  8n = 21.6

n = 21.6/8

n = $2.70

solve for 'p':

3p + 5(2.7) = 18

3p + 13.5 = 18

3p = 4.5

p = $1.50

NEED HELP ASAP I DONT GET THIS

Answer:

x = 60

Step-by-step explanation:

In a circle, the sum of the angles that meet at a point is 360 degrees. So now that we have the total, we can subtract all the given information in the picture. We have 84, 75, 68, and x + 73. Now let us set up and equation for this problem.

360 = 84 + 75 + 68 + x + 73

Now combine like terms.

360 = x + 300

Now subtract 300 on both sides.

x = 60

And this is the value of x.

HELP!!<br> what is the value of w?<br> A.40<br> B.52.5<br> C.75<br> D.100
Inga [223]
The angles w and 80 are inscribed angles in the top left and bottom right corners respectively. They are opposite angles in this inscribed quadrilateral. Because they are opposite angles in the inscribed quadrilateral, they add to 180 degrees.

w+80 = 180
w+80-80 = 180-80
w = 100

HELP PLEASE! PRE-ALGEBRA!

Answer:

Triangle ABC is similar to triangle A prime B prime C prime., because Triangle A prime B prime C prime. is obtained by dilating Triangle ABC. by a scale factor of 1 over 2. and then rotating it about the origin by 180 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Dilation by a scale factor of 1/2.

A point (x, y) is sent to (1/2 x, 1/2 y).

A(2, 2) ---> (1, 1)

B(2, 10) ---> (1, 5)

C(8, 12) ---> (4, 6)

Step 2: Rotate about the origin 180 degrees

A point (x, y) is sent to (-x, -y).

(1, 6) --->  A'(-1, -1)

(1, 5) --->  B'(-1, -5)

(4, 6) ---> C'(-4, -6)
