What kinda of math is this so i can answer..
:)
Step-by-step explanation:
y = ax + b
I see already the result (y = x/10 × 1/6), but let's go in formally.
we have multiple function points to use to officially calculate a and b.
1/6 = a×10 + b
2/3 = a×40 + b
5/6 = a×50 + b
1 2/3 = a×100 + b
let's e.g subtract equation 1 from equation 3.
4/6 = a×40 + 0
a = 4/40 / 6 = 4 / 240 = 1/60
1/6 = 10/60 + b
1/6 = 1/6 + b
b = 0
so, the function is
y = x/60
x = 25
y = 25/60 = 5/12 cups
Answer:
(- 2, 3 )
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the 2 equations
x + y = 1 → (1)
2y - x = 8 → (2)
Adding the 2 equations term by term will eliminate the x- term
(x - x) + (y + 2y) = (1 + 8), that is
3y = 9 ( divide both sides by 3 )
y = 3
Substitute y = 3 into either of the 2 equations and solve for y
Substituting y = 3 in (1)
x + 3 = 1 ( subtract 3 from both sides )
x = - 2
Solution is (- 2, 3 )
Answer:
In terms of P, the price of the sweater after the discount is 0.72P.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the price P would represent 100% and the price was discounted by 10%, you can calculate 10% of 100% and subtract that amount, which would be:
100*10%=10
100-10=90%
This means that the price paid would be 90% of P. Then, the statement says that the price was discounted by another 20%. So, you have to calculate 20% of the price and subtract that amount from the price:
90*20%=18
90-18=72%
According to this, this means that in terms of P, the price of the sweater after the discount is 0.72P.
They can play both if they wanted to......
