Answer:
5 dollars
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's call the price of a package of pens n, and the cost of a box of paper r.
3n+r=26
2n+7r=49
Multiply the first equation by 7:
21n+7r=182
Subtract the second equation from the first:
19n=133
Divide both sides by 19 to isolate n:
n=7
Plug this back in to find the value of a box of paper:
3(7)+r=26
21+r=26
r=5
Hope this helps!
a)
Let t represents number of years after 1900
so that means for 1900, value of t is 0
We are given point as (0,55)
and it says that life expectancy increases by 0.2
so that means slope,m=0.2
equation of line is y=mt +b
or y=0.2t +b
now we use point (0,55)
55 =0.2(0) +b
55 =0+b
55= b
so b=55
plug it back into the equation,we get
y=0.2t +55
b)
We are given y=73
so we plug it into the equation we got in part a and solve for t
y=0.2t +55
73 =0.2t +55
73-55 =0.2t
18 =0.2t
18/0.2 =t
90 =t
so t=90
This means the birth year =1900+t =1900+90 =1990
28 + 29 + 42 = 28 + 42 + 29 = 99
Commutative property: a + b = b + a
Solve the top equation for x and then substitute that into the bottom equation and solve for y:
Top equation: subtract 4 from both sides to get x = y - 4
Substitution and simplify:
y = 4(y - 4) - 10
y = 4y - 16 - 10
y = 4y - 26
-3y = -26
y = 26/3 or 8 1/3 or 8.333 (those are all the same but in different forms)
Answer: $42.60
Step-by-step explanation:
Original price: p
Discount: 30%
Sale price: 29.82
p x 0.7 = 29.82
p = 29.82/0.7 = 42.60
