So BC is 2x+1 and they are telling you that if your x is 5 then what is BC
So you have to plug in the 5 into your equation
2(5)+1
10+1
11
So BC is 11

Which expression could be used to determine the cost of a $40 video game after a 15 percent discount?

LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer: The required expression is,

$ 40(0.85)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The original cost of the videogame = $ 40,

Discount percentage = 15%,

So, the amount of discount = 15% of 40

= (0.15)40 ( ∵ 1% = 0.01 )

Hence, the cost of the videogame = original cost - discount

= 40 - (0.15)40

= 40 (1-0.15)

= 40(0.85)

Which is the required expression .

The five members of the Traynor family each buy train tickets. During the train ride, each family member buys a boxed lunch for

larisa [96]

Let's assume

the price of each train ticket is x

we are given

total number of family members =5

so, total cost of ticket = total number of family members*the price of each ticket

so, total cost of ticket =5*x

so, total cost of ticket =5x

now, we have

each family member buys a boxed lunch for $6.50

so, total cost of lunch box = total number of family members*price of each lunch box

so, total cost of lunch box = 5*6.50

total cost of trip = total cost of ticket+total cost of lunch box

we are given

total cost of trip is $248.50

now, we can plug values

and we get

$248.50=5x+5*6.50$

now, we can solve for x

$248.50=5x+32.5$

$248.50-32.5=5x+32.5-32.5$

$216=5x$

$\frac{5x}{5} =\frac{216}{5}$

$x=43.2$

so,

the price of each train ticket is $43.2..........Answer

Becky and luke bought the same kind of pencils and erasers . Becky spent $1.45 for 2 pencils and 3 erasers . Luke spent $2.65 fo

ivann1987 [24]

Answer: the cost of each pencil is $0.5

the cost of each eraser is $0.15

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the cost of one pencil.

Let y represent the cost of one eraser.

Becky spent $1.45 for 2 pencils and 3 erasers. This means that

2x + 3y = 1.45- - - - - - - - - -1

Luke spent $2.65 for 5 pencils and 1 eraser. This means that

5x + y = 2.65- - - - - - - - - -2

Multiplying equation 1 by 1 and equation 2 by 3, it becomes

2x + 3y = 1.45

15x + 3y = 7.95

Subtracting, it becomes

- 13x = - 6.5

x = - 6.5/- 13

x = 0.5

Substituting x = 0.5 into equation 2, it becomes

5 × 0.5 + y = 2.65

2.5 + y = 2.65

y = 2.65 - 2.5

y = 0.15

ABCDEFGHIJ is a regular decagon and the measure of <D is 144º. What is the measure of <A?

AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

1. 144⁰

2. 60⁰

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to find the measure of the interior angles of a regular polygon is:

m< = (n - 2) • 180/n where n = the number of sides

For a decagon, there are 10 sides.

m< = (10-2) • 180/10 = 144°

A regular polygon/equilateral triangle is defined as having equal sides and angles.
