Answer:

So there is an unknown number to the original price so we replace this as x,

23% of the original price will equal your new discount, now lets write it!:

23/100 x X = 150

x100              x100

23x = 15,000

Divide by 23 on both sides:

x = 652.173 around 652.17 dollars was the original price.

Solve the system of linear equations using elimination. −7x + 3y = −6 −3x + 3y = 6
Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

x = 3 , y = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the following system:

{3 y - 7 x = -6 | (equation 1)

3 y - 3 x = 6 | (equation 2)

Subtract 3/7 × (equation 1) from equation 2:

{-(7 x) + 3 y = -6 | (equation 1)

0 x+(12 y)/7 = 60/7 | (equation 2)

Multiply equation 2 by 7/12:

{-(7 x) + 3 y = -6 | (equation 1)

0 x+y = 5 | (equation 2)

Subtract 3 × (equation 2) from equation 1:

{-(7 x)+0 y = -21 | (equation 1)

0 x+y = 5 | (equation 2)

Divide equation 1 by -7:

{x+0 y = 3 | (equation 1)

0 x+y = 5 | (equation 2)

Collect results:

Answer:  {x = 3 , y = 5

A study of king penguins looked for a relationship between how deep the penguins dive to seek food and how long they stay underw
Serggg [28]

Answer:

b = 0.0138

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Regression Equation:

DD=2.69+0.0138D

Required

Determine the slope of the regression line

The equation of regression is of the form

Y =  a + bX

Where b represents the slope;

Compare Y =  a + bX to the given equation

DD=2.69+0.0138D

We have that:

Y = DD

a = 2.69

b = 0.0138

X = D

Hence; the slope is:

b = 0.0138

Find the highest common factor of<br> 72 and 135
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:9

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the prime factorization of 72

72 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 3

Find the prime factorization of 135

135 = 3 × 3 × 3 × 5

To find the GCF, multiply all the prime factors common to both numbers:

Therefore, GCF = 3 × 3

GCF = 9

I need help with this ​
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

D.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to converse of the Pythagorean Theorem, that if the square of the third side (longest side) of a triangle equals the sum of the other two shorter sides, therefore, the triangle formed must be a right triangle.

From the side lengths given, the following satisfies the Pythagorean triple:

5² + 12² = 13².

Therefore, the procedure to use to confirm the converse of the Pythagorean Theorem would be to draw the two shortest side, 5 cm and 12 cm, so that a right angle will be between them. The side measuring 13 cm should therefore fit in to form a right triangle.
