Answer:
50
Step-by-step explanation:
since they are parallel then 2x+6=106
so subtract 6 from each side so it's 2x = 100
then divide each since by 2
so x= 50
Answer:
Cost of Blanket = 32
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the cost of a blanket be = b , cost of a scarf be = s. Blanket price x Blanket Quantity & Scarf Price x Scarf Quantity sum up to be total sales.
So, Day 1 : 2b + 5s = 104 (i) , Day 2 : 3b + 4s = 128 (ii)
Solving equations : Multiplying (i) by 3 , & (ii) by 2 , we get
6b + 15s = 312 ,
(-)6b + (-)8s = (-)256
By elimination method, 15s - 8s = 312 - 256 → 7s = 56 → s = 56 / 7 = 8 .
Putting s value in any equation i], 2b + 5 (8) = 104 → 2b + 40 = 104 → 2b = 104 - 40 = 64 → b = 64 / 2 = 32
473x6= 2,838
the answer should be 2,838?
Answer:
$27.2
Step-by-step explanation:
A cake that costs $32 is on sale for 15% off and there are no taxes. Explain why the expression (0.85).32 represents the final price of the cake in dollars.
This is explained in the calculation below
= A cake that costs $32 is on sale for 15% off
The amount off the cake is calculated as
= 15% of $32
= 15/100 × 32
= $4.8
The amount he is paying for the cake =>$32 - $4.8
= $27.2
The above expression is obtained as
(0.85).32
= (100% - 15%) × 32
=( 1 - 0.15) × 32
= 0.85 × 32
= $27.2
The final price of the cake = $27.2
