Answer:

He bought 16 books

Step-by-step explanation:

cost = flat fee + books * cost per book

133 = 5 +b*8 where b is the number of books

133 = 5+8b

Subtract 5 from each side

128 = 8b

Divide each side by 8

128/8 = 8b/8

16 = b

He bought 16 books

Solve for a<br><br> - 8a = 24
Amanda [17]

Answer:

a = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Isolate the variable, a. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other.

Divide -8 from both sides:

(-8a)/-8 = (24)/-8

a = 24/-8

a = -3

a = -3 is your answer.

Mr wood's monthly expenses was $2.125 after he had reduced it by 15 %the oroginal monthoy expenses was 80% of his monthly income
Nataliya [291]

Answer:

$2.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the original monthly expenses be 'x'.

Given:

Reduced monthly expenses = $2.125

Reduction in monthly expenses = 15%

Therefore, remaining percentage of monthly expenses = 100 - 15 = 85%

Now, as per question:

85\%\ of\ x=2.125\\\frac{85}{100}\times x=2.125\\0.85x=2.125\\x=\frac{2.125}{0.85}=\$2.50

Therefore, the original monthly expenses of Mr. Wood was $2.50.

Also, we can find his monthly income using the value of 'x'.

As per question, his monthly expenses is 80% of his income.

So, 80% of income = 2.5

Income = \frac{2.5}{0.80}=\$3.125

So, his monthly income is $ 3.125

What is the value of h when the function is converted to vertex form?
zlopas [31]
H=7.

To convert to vertex form, we complete the square.  This means we move the constant, c, to the other side.

y=x²-14x+29
y-29 = x²-14x+29-29
y-29=x²-14x

To find the number that we then add to both sides, we look at the value of b (coefficient of x).  We take half of that number; -14/2 = -7.  Then we square it; (-7)²=49.  This means we add 49 to both sides:

y-29+49=x²-14x+49

Now we combine like terms on the left:
y+20=x²-14x+49

Write the right hand side as a square:
y+20 = (x-7)²

Now move the 20 on the left back to the right by subtracting it from both sides:
y+20-20=(x-7)²-20
y=(x-7)²-20

The value of h is 7.
