A necklace and earrings cost $144. Six necklaces and five pairs of earrings cost $825

Mathematics
1 answer:
hram777 [196]3 years ago
6 0

Step-by-step explanation:

let necklace : x

let earrings : y

x+y=144 -1st eqn

6x+5y=825 -2nd eqn

y=144-X -3rd eqn

substitute eqn into 2nd eqn

6x+5(144-x)= 825

6x +720-5X =825 (expanded)

X = 825-720

X =105

substitute "X=105" into 1st eqn

(105)+y=144

y= 144-105

y=39

1 necklace = 105$

1 pair of earrings = 39$

(to check back: substitute the value into the original eqn)

If G(x)=x^2+5x+6, find g(-4)-7
Paraphin [41]
G(x) = (x+2)(x+3), this is from factoring then replace x with -4 and the equation should look like this g(-4)-7= (-4+2)(-4+3)-7= -5,

Which function described below has the greatest rate of change? I WILL MARK BRAINLIEST​
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

C III

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate of change of a linear function is the slope.

f(x) = mx + b is the equation of a linear function whose graph is a straight line. m is the slope.

I f(x) = 4x - 3;   m = slope = 4

II f(x) = 1/2 x + 5;   m = slope = 1/2

III We can use two points to find the slope.

Let's use points (1, 6) and (2, 12).

m = slope = (y2 - y1)/(x2  x1) = (12 - 6)/(2 - 1) = 6/1 = 6

The three slopes are 4, 1/2, 6.

The greatest rate of change is 6, so the answer is C III.

What is the correct factorisation of?<br>X^2+6x+8​
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that: x  

2

+6x+8

                 =x  

2

+4x+2x+8,        (split middle term)

                 =(x  

2

+4x)+(2x+8),    (group pair of terms)  

                 =x(x+4)+2(x+4),         (factor each binomials)

                 =(x+4)(x+2),              (factor out common factor (x+4)

Hence factors of x  

2

+6x+8 are (x+4)(x+2)
