Answer:

3750$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the amount in dollars of sales:

125 + 0.08x = 200 + 0.06x (when Ethan and Sam earn the same weekly income)

0.02x = 75

x = 3750

15. Solve for the specified variable:<br> -<br> х<br> +<br> 7 8<br> - 10; for y.
Andreyy89

Answer:

y=80-\frac{8x}{7}

Step-by-step explanation:

15). Given equation is,

     \frac{x}{7}+ \frac{y}{8}=10

     Multiply the equation by 8,

     8(\frac{x}{7}+ \frac{y}{8})=10\times 8

     \frac{8x}{7}+y=80

     Subtract \frac{8x}{7} from both the sides of the equation,

     \frac{8x}{7}+y-\frac{8x}{7}=80-\frac{8x}{7}

     y=80-\frac{8x}{7}

     Therefore, value of the variable 'y' will be,

     y=80-\frac{8x}{7}

An airplane can travel 365mph in still air. If it travels 2716 miles with the wind in the same length of time it travels 2394 mi
Anestetic [448]

Answer: the speed of the wind is 365 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the speed of the wind.

An airplane can travel 365mph in still air. If it travels 2716 miles with the wind, it means that its total speed while flying with the wind is (365 + x) mph.

Time = distance/speed

Time spent in flying with the wind is

2716/(365 + x)

In the same length of time, it travels 2394 miles against the wind. it means that its total speed while flying against the wind is (365 - x) mph.

Time spent in flying against the wind is

2394/(365 - x)

Since the time is the same, it means that

2716/(365 + x) = 2394/(365 - x)

Cross multiplying, it becomes

2716(365 - x) = 2394(365 + x)

991340 - 2716x = 873810 + 2394x

2394x + 2716x = 991340 - 873810

5110x = 1865150

x = 1865150/5110

x = 365 mph

How to multiply a matrices 3x3 by 3x2
lesya692 [45]
The top row of matrix A (1, 2, 1) is multiplied with the first column of matrix B (1,0,-1) and the result is 1x1 + 2x0 + 1x -1 = 0 this is row 1 column 1 of the resultant matrix
The top row of matrix A (1,2,1) is multiplied with the second column of matrix B (-1, -1, 1) and the result is 1 x-1 + 2 x -1 + 1 x 1 = -2 , this is row 1 column 2 of the resultant matrix
Repeat with the second row of matrix A (-1,-1.-2) x (1,0,-1) = 1 this is row 2 column 1 of the resultant matrix, multiply the second row of A (-1,-1,-2) x (-1,-1,1) = 0, this is row 2 column 2 of the resultant
Repeat with the third row of matrix A( -1,1,-2) x (1,0, -1) = 1, this is row 3 column 1 of the resultant
the third row of A (-1,1,-2) x( -1,-1,1) = -2, this is row 3 column 2 of the resultant matrix

Matrix AB ( 0,-2/1,0/1,-2)
