Answer:

  • x + y = 20
  • 20x +30y = 450

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for the total number of cases is ...

  x + y = 20

The equation for the total cost of the cases is ...

  20x +30y = 450

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

The solution to these equations is (x, y) = (15, 5).

(2 x 106) x (0.00009) = ?
RSB [31]

I think you meant to write

(2 × 10⁶) × 0.00009

First, convert 0.00009 to scientific notation:

0.00009 = 9 × 10 ⁻⁵

Then

(2 × 10⁶) × 0.00009 = (2 × 10⁶) × (9 × 10 ⁻⁵)

… = (2 × 9) × (10⁶ × 10 ⁻⁵)

… = 18 × 10¹

… = 1.8 × 10²

<span>step  1  :</span> 3 • (x - 9) - 30 = 0 <span>Step  2  :</span><span>Step  3  :</span>Pulling out like terms :

<span> 3.1 </span>    Pull out like factors :

   3x - 57  =   3 • (x - 19) 

<span>Equation at the end of step  3  :</span> 3 • (x - 19) = 0 <span>Step  4  :</span>Equations which are never true :

<span> 4.1 </span>     Solve :    3   =  0

<span>This equation has no solution.
</span>A a non-zero constant never equals zero.

Solving a Single Variable Equation :

<span> 4.2 </span>     Solve  :    x-19 = 0<span>
