5r + (5 x 6) = 84

looking for rice per pound.

Step-by-step explanation:

5r + (5 x 6)  = 84

This shows an equation where we need to make r the subject to establish how many pounds a bag of rice weighs.

5r + (5 x 6)  = 84

5r + (30)  = 84

5r = 84-30

5r = 54/5

r  = 10 4/5  

r  =  10.8 pounds

Bridget purchased 3 pairs of shoes online. The total bill of $126.81 included a $7.50 shipping charge and 6% tax on the total pu
Alika [10]

Answer:

$37.

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, let's set the price of each pair of shoe to be x.

Since each pair of shoes costs the same, and there are three pairs, we can set the original price to be 3x.

Now, to apply the shipping charge, all we have to do is add 7.50 to 3x, getting 3x + 7.5.

Next, to apply a 6% tax, we can multiple the whole expression by (100% + 6%), getting (3x + 7.5) \cdot 106%.

Since the whole bill foots to a total of $126.81, we can set the final equation to be:

(3x + 7.5) \cdot 106\% = $126.81

(3x + 7.5) \cdot \frac{106}{100} = $126.81

3x + 7.5 = $126.81 \cdot \frac {50}{53}

3x = $119.6 - 7.5

3x = 112.1

x \approx \$37

Hope this helped!

the half-life of isotope X is 2.0 years. How many years would it take for a 4.0mg sample of X to decay and have only 0.50 mg of
shepuryov [24]

After 2.0 years, the 4.0 mg sample decays to 2.0 mg.

After another 2.0 years (total 4.0 years), the 2.0 mg sample decays to 1.0 mg.

And after another 2.0 years (total 6.0 years), the 1.0 mg sample decays to 0.50 mg.

So it takes 6.0 years for 4.0 mg to decay to 0.50 mg.
