Answer:

256.25

Step-by-step explanation:

if you have a 20% discount then you are paying 80% if the original cost.

so 80% of the original price is 205

.80x = 205

x = 205/.80

bryan has some 3 cent stamps and some 4 cent stamps. what is the least number of stamps he can combine so the value of the stamp
SashulF [63]

Answer:

The least number of stamps required is 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of 3 cent stamps be x and 4 cent stamps be y

We have

3x+4y=33

The minimum number is obtained when more  4 cent stamps are used

Here y cannot be greater than 8 since \frac{33}{4}

Substitute y=8

3x+4\times 8=33\\\\3x=1\\\\x=\frac{1}{3}

Not possible since x is not a fraction

Substitute y=7

3x+4\times 7=33\\\\3x=5\\\\x=\frac{5}{3}

Not possible since x is not a fraction

Substitute y=6

3x+4\times 6=33\\\\3x=9\\\\x=\frac{9}{3}\\\\=3

Possible

Hence minimum number of stamps is

=x+y\\\\=3+6\\\\=9

On the first day of travel, a driver was going at a speed of 40 mph. The next day, he increased the speed to 60 mph. If he drove
gogolik [260]

Velocity, distance and time:

This question is solved using the following formula:

v = \frac{d}{t}

In which v is the velocity, d is the distance, and t is the time.

On the first day of travel, a driver was going at a speed of 40 mph.

Time t_1, distance of d_1, v = 40. So

v = \frac{d}{t}

40 = \frac{d_1}{t_1}

The next day, he increased the speed to 60 mph. If he drove 2 more hours on the first day and traveled 20 more miles

On the second day, the velocity is v = 60.

On the first day, he drove 2 more hours, which means that for the second day, the time is: t_1 - 2

On the first day, he traveled 20 more miles, which means that for the second day, the distance is: d_1 - 20

Thus

v = \frac{d}{t}

60 = \frac{d_1 - 20}{t_1 - 2}

System of equations:

Now, from the two equations, a system of equations can be built. So

40 = \frac{d_1}{t_1}

60 = \frac{d_1 - 20}{t_1 - 2}

Find the total distance traveled in the two days:

We solve the system of equation for d_1, which gets the distance on the first day. The distance on the second day is d_2 = d_1 - 20, and the total distance is:

T = d_1 + d_2 = d_1 + d_1 - 20 = 2d_1 - 20

From the first equation:

d_1 = 40t_1

t_1 = \frac{d_1}{40}

Replacing in the second equation:

60 = \frac{d_1 - 20}{t_1 - 2}

d_1 - 20 = 60t_1 - 120

d_1 - 20 = 60\frac{d_1}{40} - 120

d_1 = \frac{3d_1}{2} - 100

d_1 - \frac{3d_1}{2} = -100

-\frac{d_1}{2} = -100

\frac{d_1}{2} = 100

d_1 = 200

Thus, the total distance is:

T = 2d_1 - 20 = 2(200) - 20 = 400 - 20 = 380

The total distance traveled in two days was of 380 miles.

Michele is starting a new pool-cleaning business. It costs her $85 to purchase supplies. Michele charges $40 each time she clean
Alex787 [66]

Answer:

Option A : y = 40x - 85 is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Cost of purchasing supplies = $85

Cost charged for cleaning a pool = $40

Let,

x be the number of pools cleaned.

y be the profit

Profit = Cost of pools cleaned - purchase price of supplies

y = 40x - 85

Hence,

Option A : y = 40x - 85 is the correct answer.
