Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Two ways to solve

1.) Expand each term in the equation

7x = x · x · x · x · x · x · x

6x = x · x · x · x · x · x

Count all the x’s ⇒ There are 13 x’s ⇒ 13x

2.) Add the coefficients

7 + 6 = 13
7x + 6x = 13x

Hence,

Answer = 13x

Hats and mittens are on sale at the store! One woman was able to buy 5 hats and 4 pairs of mittens for $30.

aalyn [17]

The price of one hat is $2 and one pair of mittens is $5

Step-by-step explanation:

Hats and mittens are on sale at the store!

One woman was able to buy 5 hats and 4 pairs of mittens for $30
Another woman purchased 3 pairs of mittens and 2 hats for $19
The price of one hat is x
The price of one pair of mittens is y

We need to find x and y

∵ One woman was able to buy 5 hats and 4 pairs of mittens for $30

∵ The price of one hat is x

∵ The price of one pair of mittens is y

- Multiply 5 hats by x and 4 pairs of mittens by y and equate

their sum by 30

∴ 5x + 4y = 30 ⇒ (1)

∵ Another woman purchased 3 pairs of mittens and 2 hats for $19

- Multiply 2 hats by x and 3 pairs of mittens by y and equate

their sum by 19

∴ 2x + 3y = 19 ⇒ (2)

Now we have a system of equations to solve it

Multiply equation (1) by -2 and equation (2) by 5 to eliminate x

∵ -10x - 8y = -60 ⇒ (3)

∵ 10x + 15y = 95 ⇒ (4)

- Add equations (3) and (4)

∴ 7y = 35

- Divide both sides by 7

∴ y = 5

Substitute the value of y in equation (1) or (2) to find x

∵ 2x + 3(5) = 19

∴ 2x + 15 = 19

- Subtract 15 from both sides

∴ 2x = 4

- Divide both sides by 2

∴ x = 2

The price of one hat is $2 and one pair of mittens is $5

3x is a ____ of 3x^2 - 6x^3.

Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

$\boxed{factor}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there!

3x * x = 3x^2

3x * 2x = 6x^3

So 3x is a factor of 3x^2 - 6x^3.

Hope this helps :)

A business has two loans totaling $50,000. One loan has a rate of 8% and the other has a rate of 12%. This year, the business ex

Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

the 8% loan has a principal of $37500

the 12% loan has a principal of $12500

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start by writing the general equation for the interest hwre I is the interest, P is the principal (in our case would be loan amounts), "r" is the interest rate in decimal form (in our case one would be 0.12, and the other one 0.08), and t is the time in years (in our case 1 year).

$I=P*r*t$

Then we write the interest equation coming from each loan at the end of this year (we call I1 the interest coming from the 12% loan and I2 the interest coming from the 8% one). Since we don't know the loan amounts (in fact those are what we need to find) we will name one "x" and the other "y":

$I=P*r*t\\I1=x * 0.12*1\\I2=y*0.08*1$

Next, we add these last two equations term by term, and replace the addition of both interests by $4500 as given in the information:

$I1=x * 0.12*1\\I2=y*0.08*1\\I1+I2 = 0.12x+0.08y\\4500=0.12x+0.08y$

This is our first equation in the variables x and y which are our unknowns.

Now we generate the second equation on x and y by writing in agebraic terms the other piece of information we have: "the total of the two loans is $50000. That is the addition of the principals x and y should equal $50000:

$x+y=50000$

We solve for y in this last equation and replace its form in terms of x in the equation of the interest, and solve for the unknown x:

$y=50000-x\\4500 = 0.12x +0.08 y\\4500=0.12x+0.08(50000-x)\\4500=0.12x+4000-0.08x\\4500=0.12x-0.08x+4000\\4500=0.04x+4000\\4500-4000=0.04x\\500=0.04x\\x=\frac{500}{0.04} =12500$
