D.) <span>A picnic table is on sale for 40 percent off. The original price of the picnic table is x, $144.10
It is on sale for 40% so, new amount will be 60%, and x is the sale price, so in order to calculate original price, you have to multiply them
Hope this helps!</span>
Step-by-step explanation:
x = number of multiple choice questions
y = number of short response questions
x + y = 15
5x + 10y = 100
=>
x + 2y = 20
let's subtract the first from the second equation :
x + 2y = 20
- x + y = 15
--------------------
0 y = 5
x + y = 15
x + 5 = 15
x = 10
to graph you need to consider both equations as linear functions. and you need to transform them into e.g. a slope intercept form : y = ax + b
a is the slope, b is the y- intercept.
x + y = 15
transforms to
y = -x + 15
this line goes e.g. through the points (0, 15) and (1, 14).
and
x + 2y = 20
transforms to
2y = -x + 20
y = -x/2 + 10
this line goes e.g through (0, 10) and (2, 9).
the crossing point of both lines is the solution and should therefore be the point (10, 5) as calculated above.
Answer:
$230

Start by dividing both sides by two to get 3 = y + 2. then subtract two from both sides to get y = 1.
