Answer:

$43.75

Step-by-step explanation:

To find how much the game would have been 20% off from 43.75, you would have needed the expression

43.75*0.8

So to go from 35 to 43.75, you need the expression

35/0.8.

This expression in simpler terms means What is 38, 80% of?

That is how we get 43.75.

35/0.8 = 43.75.

What is the solution for 2y=x+2 x-3y=-5

Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

x = 4

y = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equations :-

2y = x + 2
x - 3y = -5

Second equation can be written as ,

x - 3y = -5
-3y = -x - 5

Adding them :-

-3y + 2y = 2 -5
-y = -3
y = 3

Put this in (ii) :-

x = 3y - 5
x = 3*3 - 5
x = 9 -5
X = 4

|9x-7|=|6x+3| Solve the inequality

dexar [7]

Answer:

x = 4/15 and x= 10/3

Step-by-step explanation:

|9x-7|=|6x+3|

There are two solutions, one positive and one negative.

(9x-7)=6x+3 - (9x-7)=6x+3

We will take the positive one first

(9x-7)=6x+3

Subtract 6x from each side

(9x-6x-7)=6x-6x+3

3x -7=3

Add 7 to each side

3x-7+7 = 3+7

3x = 10

Divide by 3x/3 = 10/3

x = 10/3

Now we will take the negative solution

- (9x-7)=6x+3

Distribute the negative sign

-9x+7 = 6x+3

Add 9x to each side

-9x+9x+7 = 6x+9x+3

7 = 15x+3

Subtract 3 from each side

7-3 = 15x +3-3

4 = 15x

Divide by 15 on each side

4/15 =15x/15

4/15 =x

The equation of a line is y=-2.5x+3. Which one of these points lies on this line?

lakkis [162]

D is the correct answer. Since this is an equation, equation means both side are equal. So if you put each point in place of y and x and do the math on the left side, the final result of that side has to be equal to the left one. Only (-2,2) follows this statement aka its a point on this line .

Is sqrt(1 - sin^2 θ) = cos θ true? if so, in which quadrants does angle θ terminate?

jonny [76]

Answer:

I and IV

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 1-sin(θ)² = cos(θ)², the given equation is equivalent to ...

√(cos(θ)²) = |cos(θ)| = cos(θ)

This will be true where the cosine is non-negative, in the first and fourth quadrants.
