Answer:
dr. potter provides 54 vaccinations TOTAL (including both measles and polio).
p+m=54
since there are 4 doses of polio and of measles, you have to use a variable to distinguish how many doses were given for measles and polio out of 142 given doses.
4p+2m=142
p+m=54
4p+2m=142
^^system of equation
p+m=54
4p+2m=142
p=54-m
4p+2m=142
(substitute 54-m to the equation)
4(54-m)+2m=142
m=37
(collect like terms, then substitute the value of m into the first equation)
p=54-37
p=17
(m, p)=(37, 17)

Answer:
$504
Step-by-step explanation:
Step one:
given data
A shirt that cost $420
we are told that the shirt was on a discount sale of 20%, so when the discount is over the price will return to $420, we are then told that the shirt was marked up 20%.
Step two:
Hence the new cost is
=20/100*420+ 420
=0.2*420+420
=84+420
=$504
This is the concept of quadratic equations, solving the equation 2x^2-12x+20=0 using the formula we get:
x=[-b+/-sqrt(b^2-4ac)]/(2a)
from our equation, a=2,b=-12 and c=20
x=[-(-12+/-sqrt((-12)^2-4*2*20)]/(2*2)
x=[12+/-sqrt(144-160]/4
x=[12+/-sqrt(-16)]/4
x=[12+/-4i]/4
x=[3+\-i]
the answer is A] 3+/-i
Answer: £485
Step-by-step explanation: Given that the rate is $3.20 to £1.
Exchange of $1,600 will be
1600/3.20 = £500
With commission on 3%
3/100 × 500 = 15
Take away £15 from £500
500 - 15 = 485
