To solve this problem, or one of sorts, you can multiply the current price (2.16) by 1.33 (the percentage as a decimal).

2.16*1.33 = 2.8728

Round to two decimal places (and that’s the number of decimal places for money), and you can expect the new price per pound of cherries to be about $2.87.

wolverine [178]
8, 15, 17

You can do this by using the Pythagorean Theorem and setting the sides equal to

shorter leg = x
longer leg = x + 7
hypotenuse = 2x + 1

Then solve so that one side is equal to zero and use the quadratic formula.

irina [24]

Expression 20 – 3J represents the change in dollars, which construction worker will receive after buying J bottles of juice.

<u>Solution:</u>

Given that  

A construction worker bought several bottles of juice for $3 at the comedian store

She paid for them the $20 bills

Number of bottles of juice is represented by variable J

Need to write an expression for the change she receives.  

From given information

Price of 1 juice bottle = $3

\text { So price of J juice bottles }=\mathrm{J} \times \text { Price of } 1 \text { juice bottle }

=\mathrm{J} \times 3=3 \mathrm{J}

<em>Change she receives = Amount she paid - price of J juice bottles   </em>

=> Change she receives = 20 – 3J

Hence expression 20 – 3J represents the change in dollars, which construction worker will receive after buying J bottles of juice.

Identify the form of each equation. 7x + 5y = 8 is in (select) . y − 5 = 3 (x − 9) is in (select) . y = 7x + 9 is in (select) .
erik [133]

Answer:

Let's define all the possible forms:

slope-intercept: y = a*x + b

point-slope: y - y1 = a*(x - x1)   (where (x1, y1) is a point in the line)

standard form: a*x + b*y = c

then:

a) 7x + 5y = 8

This is in standard form.

b) y − 5 = 3*(x − 9)

This is in point slope form.

c) y = 7x + 9

This is in slope-intercept form.

d) 8x − 9y = −2

This is in standard form.
