You’d set up a proportion. I did 25/15=7x-40/18.
Then you would cross multiply to get 15(7x-40)=450
Distribute the 15.
105x-600=450
Add 600 to both sides, so the -600 cancels out.
Then you’re left with 105x=1050
Divide both sides by 105 and you get x=10
Answer:
the exact length of the midsegment of trapezoid JKLM = 
i.e 6.708 units on the graph
Step-by-step explanation:
From the diagram attached below; we can see a graphical representation showing the mid-segment of the trapezoid JKLM. The mid-segment is located at the line parallel to the sides of the trapezoid. However; these mid-segments are X and Y found on the line JK and LM respectively from the graph.
Using the expression for midpoints between two points to determine the exact length of the mid-segment ; we have:
Thus; the exact length of the midsegment of trapezoid JKLM = i.e 6.708 units on the graph
Answer:
34
Step-by-step explanation:
$1.25 = 125 cents.
$42 = 4200 cents
Tickets sold at 75 cents = x
Tickets sold at 125 cents = y
x + y = 40
75x + 125y = 4200
Multiply the first equation by 75
75x + 75y = 3000
75x + 125y = 4200
Subtract the the second equation from the first.
75x + 75y = 3000
- 75x + 125y = 4200
-------------------------------
0 - 150y = - 1200
Divide both sides by - 150
-150y/-150 = -1200/-150
y = 8
Substitute y = 8 into the first equation
x + y = 42
x + 8 = 42
x = 42 - 8
x = 34
34 tickets were sold for 75 cents
8 tickets were sold for $1.25
Answer:
2.75 dollars
Step-by-step explanation:
4-1.25=2.75
Answer:
$13.75
Step-by-step explanation:
Ivan earns $343.75 working for 25hours
The amount that Ivan gets if he works for 1 hour can be calculated as follows
= 343.75/25
= 13.75
Hence the amount paid for one hour is $13.75
