Answer:

50

Step-by-step explanation:

x= the number of pounds of the tropical taffy that should be used

You need to take the value of the Tropical Taffy + the value of the Passion Fruit taffy to = the value of Tropical Passion

value- price per pound times the number of pounds

Your equation is going to look like this-->

5.50x+6.25(100)=6(x+100)

5.50x+625=6x+600

-5.50x        -5.50x

625=0.5x+600

-600         -600

25=0.5x

50=x

Hope this helps!

Solve:<br> 3c - 15 = 17 - c<br> plsss helpp !! i put 20 pts on this !!
azamat

Answer:

c=8

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

3c + -15 = 17 + -1c

Reorder the terms:

-15 + 3c = 17 + -1c

Solving

-15 + 3c = 17 + -1c

Solving for variable 'c'.

Move all terms containing c to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add 'c' to each side of the equation.

-15 + 3c + c = 17 + -1c + c

Combine like terms: 3c + c = 4c

-15 + 4c = 17 + -1c + c

Combine like terms: -1c + c = 0

-15 + 4c = 17 + 0

-15 + 4c = 17

Add '15' to each side of the equation.

-15 + 15 + 4c = 17 + 15

Combine like terms: -15 + 15 = 0

0 + 4c = 17 + 15

4c = 17 + 15

Combine like terms: 17 + 15 = 32

4c = 32

Divide each side by '4'.

c = 8

Simplifying

c = 8

Draw Line HI perpendicular to Line JK<br> (be sure to include appropriate markings)
kirill [66]

To draw line HI perpendicular to JK we need to follow the given steps:

Place your compass on the given point (point H). Draw an arc across the line on each side of the given point. Do not adjust the compass width when drawing the second arc.

From each arc on the line, draw another arc on the opposite side of the line from the given point (H). The two new arcs will intersect.

Use your ruler to join the given point (H) to the point where the arcs intersect (I).

HI is perpendicular to JK.

What is perpendicular?

Two distinct lines intersecting each other at 90°, or a right angle, are called perpendicular lines.

Properties of Perpendicular Lines

  • These lines always intersect at right angles.
  • If two lines are perpendicular to the same line, they are parallel to each other and will never intersect.
  • Adjacent sides of a square and a rectangle are always perpendicular to each other.
  • The sides of the right-angled triangle enclosing the right angle are perpendicular to each other.
