Answer for #1
Let the old price be
$
x
per liter. 10 liters would have cost a total of
$
10
x
.
The new price is
$
(
x
+
0.20
)
per liter. 10 liters would have cost
$
10
(
x
+
0.20
)
.
The total cost is
$
9.20
. So,
10
x
+
10
(
x
+
0.20
)
=
9.20
10
x
+
10
x
=
9.20
−
2
x
=
7.20
20
x
=
0.36
Thus, the old price was
$
0.36
per liter.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: two equations represent the situation are
y = 3x and y = x + 4
Step-by-step explanation:
The smaller number was represented by x and its values on the x coordinate.
The larger number was represented by y and its values on the y coordinate.
The larger number is equal to 3 times a smaller number. This means that
y = 3x
Also, the sum of the smaller number and 4 is the larger number. This means that
y = x + 4
The answer would be 5/55 because if you subtract 32 from 37 you would end up with 5 and because the denominator was the same you keep the denominator the same.
