Answer:

The company sold 100 widgets and 250 gizmos.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let $x_1$ be the number of widgets sold and $x_2$ be the number of gizmos sold.

We are told that the company sold 350 items. We can represent this information in an equation as:

$x_1+x_2=350...(1)$

We have been given that a each widget sold for $35 and each gizmo sold for $22. The company sold 350 items for a total of $9,000.

We can represent this information in an equation as:

$35x_1+22x_2=9,000...(2)$

From equation (1), we will get:

$x_2=350-x_1$

Substitute this value in equation (2):

$35x_1+22(350-x_1)=9,000$

$35x_1+7,700-22x_1=9,000$

$13x_1+7,700=9,000$

$13x_1+7,700-7,700=9,000-7,700$

$13x_1=1,300$

$\frac{13x_1}{13}=\frac{1,300}{13}$

$x_1=100$

Therefore, the company sold 100 widgets.

Substitute $x_1=100$ in equation (1):

$100+x_2=350$

$100-100+x_2=350-100$

$x_2=250$

Therefore, the company sold 250 gizmos.

7. Marco is making beaded bracelets. Each

stiks02 [169]

One way to find the least common multiple of two numbers is to first list the prime factors of each number.

8 = 2 x 2 x 2

Then multiply each factor the greatest number of times it occurs in either number. If the same factor occurs more than once in both numbers, you multiply the factor the greatest number of times it occurs.

2: three occurrences

3: one occurrence

So, our LCM should be

2 x 2 x 2 x 3 = 24.

So, Marco can buy, at the very least, 24 beads of each color to have equal colors of beads.

2. IQS = 4 and QR is a perpendicular bisector of TS , determined which of the following claims is true

Pavel [41]

Answer:

RS=5 TRUE

RS=4 FALSE (it’s 5)

ST=10 FALSE (it’s 8)

QR=4 FALSE (its 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we have to determine the sides of the triangle.

4x-3=2x+1

4x-2x=1+3

2x=4

x=2

SO, RS=4x-3=4(2)-3=8-3=5

RT=2(x)+1=2(2)+1=5

QR=4²+b²=5². 16+b²=25. b²=25-16. b²=9. b=3

CLAIMS:

RS=5 TRUE

RS=4 FALSE (it’s 5)

ST=10 FALSE (it’s 8)

QR=4 FALSE (its 3)

Please help me, I will give brainliest

ipn [44]

Answer:

8w² < 4w(150-w)

Step-by-step explanation:

Square area of living : w · w = w²

Money spent : 8 · w²

Square area of artichokes : (150 - w) · w

Money earned : 4 · w · (150 - w)

Julia manages to save some money every week. That means that the money earned is bigger than the money spent ( the money spent is less than the money earned)

8 · w² < 4 · w · (150 - w)
