Answer:
x=3
Step-by-step explanation:
1500*2%=30
30*4=120
1500+120+1720
1720 deer in 4 years
Answer: Andre picked 252 pounds of apples
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = number of pounds of apple picked by Jane.
Let y = number of pounds of apple picked by Andre
Let z = number of pounds of apple picked by Maria
Andre picks three times as many pounds as maria. It means that
y = 3z
Jane picks two times as many pounds as Andre. It means that
x = 2y
The total weight of the apples is 840 pounds. It means that
x + y + z = 840 - - - - - - - - - 1
We will substitute z = y/3 and x = 2y into equation 1
2y + y + y/3 = 840
Cross multiplying with 3
6y + 3y + y = 2520
10y = 2520
y = 2520/10 = 252
x = 2y = 252× 2 = 504
z = y/3 = 252/3 = 84
The last option:The change in y-values is constant for evenly spaced x-values.
Remember that the change in y divided by the change in x is the slope of a line and it is constant.
Given :
The Sugar Sweet Company will choose from two companies to transport its sugar to market.
The first company charges $3995 to rent trucks plus an additional fee of $225.75 for each ton of sugar.
The second company charges $5500 to rent trucks plus an additional fee of $150.50 for each ton of sugar.
To Find :
How, many tons of sugar will cost same in both companies.
Solution :
For company 1 :
P1 = (225.75)x + 3995
For company 2 :
P2 = (150.50)x + 5500
For same cost :
P1 = P2
(225.75)x + 3995 = (150.50)x + 5500
x( 225.75 - 150.50 ) = ( 5500- 3995)
x( 75.25 ) = 1505
x = 20
Therefore, 20 tons of sugar will cost same.
Hence, this is the required solution.
