This is a problem that could be solved with proportions. Here's how to set it up.
210mi./9 gallons =413mi./x gallons
Then, you would cross multiply 9x413 then divide that my 210. The result would be the X gallons. Good Luck ♡
Answer:
Notebook is $4
Thumb drive is $23
Step-by-step explanation:
Let notebooks be x and thumb drives be y
6x+7y=$185
14x+12y=$332
These two are simultaneous equation. Multiplying the first equation by 7 and second by 3 we obtain
42x+49y=$1295
42x+36y=$996
Subtracting the third equation from the fourth
996-1295=-$299
(36-49)y=-23y
-23y=-$299
y=$299/13=$23
To get the value of x, we substitute the value of y into the first equation
6x+(7*23)=$185
6x=$185-$161
6x=$24
x=$4
Therefore, price of notebook is $4, price of thumb drive is $23
Wouldn't the answer be any number which has the hundredths place as a 5? For example, 23,521.
As 50 x 10 = 500 and the 5 in 23,521 represents 500.
110 (goal) - 50 (base pay) = 60 (pay from sales only)
60 (total pay from sales) / 3 (cost per individual sale) = 20 (qty of sales)
Answer:
(3,22.50)
(6, 33)
Rise/Run using two points
33-22.50/ 6-3
10.5/3
<u>Rate = 3.5</u>
