Answer:

PQ = 35 km

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to get the length of PQ

Let PQ = x

PR is 10 km longer than PQ

PR = 10 + x

QR = 2 * PR

QR = 2(10 + x)

Adding all gives 170;

x + 10 + x + 2(10 + x) = 170

2x + 10 + 20 + 2x = 170

4x + 30 = 170

4x = 170-30

4x = 140

x = 140/4

x = 35 km

PQ = 35 km

A radio is being discounted 20%. If the sale price is $51.44, what was the original price of the radio? A. $12.86, B. 64.30, C.
katrin2010 [14]
The equation for decreasing a price by 20% is 
original price x 0.8 = sale price

Here, we can fill in the sale price so
original price x 0.8 = 51.44

This can be rearranged to show:
51.44 ÷ 0.8 = original price

So the original price was $64.30

Answer = B - $64.30

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1) 2x -y = 1 -------1

3x - y = -6 ------2

Subtract eqn 2 from eqn 1

-x = 1--6 = 7

x = -7

Put x= -7 in eqn 1

2*-7-y = 1

-14-y = 1

- y = 15

y = -15

2) 4x +2y = 10------1

y = 4x + 2--------2

Put eqn 2 in eqn 1

4x + 2 ( 4x+ 2) = 10

4x + 8x + 4 = 10

12x = 6

x = 6/12 = 1/2

Put x = 1/2 in eqn 2

y = 4* 1/2 + 2= 2 + 2

= 4

3) 6x - y = 2------1

y = 3x + 4---------2

Put eqn 2 in eqn 1

6x - (3x +4) = 2

6x - 3x - 4 = 2

3x = 6

x = 2

y = 3*2 + 4 = 6 + 4

= 10
