Dr. J has 750g or .75 kg of dirt
So she needs .25 kg more dirt or 250g of dirt.
since 1-.75=.25
Answer:
$111
Step-by-step explanation:
The bank balance is ...
$700 × (1 + 0.05) = $735
The cost of the computer is ...
$750 × (1 -0.20) × (1 +0.04) = $624
The remaining bank balance after paying for the computer is ...
$735 -624 = $111
_____
When you add a percentage, you effectively multiply by the sum of 1 and that percentage. The same is true if the amount "added" is negative (as for a discounted price).
(original amount) + (percentage)×(original amount)
Use the distributive property to factor out the original amount:
= (original amount)×(1 + percentage)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a). Let the number of spoons = x
And number of forks = y
Total number of spoons and forks bought by Perry = 10
x + y = 10 --------(1)
Cost of one spoon = $5
Cost of one fork = $3
Therefore, total cost of x spoons and y forks = $(5x + 3y)
5x + 3y = 42 -------(2)
b). Now we can convert these equations into the slope-intercept form.
x + y = 10 ⇒ y = -x + 10
Table for input output values,
x 2 4 6
y 8 6 4
5x + 3y = 42
3y = -5x + 42
y = 
x 0 3 6
y 14 9 4
Point of intersection of these lines will be (6, 4).
Answer:
x=5
Step-by-step explanation
Move all terms containing x to the left side of the equation.
4x-8=12
Move all terms not containing x to the right side of the equation.
4x=20
Divide each term by 4 and simplify.
x=5
