Answer:
See attached. (Note that b, d, f, h, j are cents amounts. All the other letters refer to the dollar amounts only (no cents).)
Step-by-step explanation:
The one deposit is marked with a (+) in the third column of Figure 4.16a. All the other transactions are Payment/Debit transactions. The balance on each line is the balance on the previous line less any payment and plus any deposit on that line. (It's not rocket science.)
If you actually do this in a spreadsheet, it is convenient to let the spreadsheet do the math. It is much easier to let the spreadsheet keep track of dollars and cents in the same column.
It is more difficult to break out cents to a separate column. So, your letter answers apparently need to be the dollar portion only (except as indicated above).
The left sides of the equations are the same and the right sides of the equations are different, therefore the system of equations is inconsistent.
Answer: B. inconsistent.
Answer: See explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Let the small number be x
Then, the bug number will be: x + 25
Therefore, x + x + 25 = 131
2x + 25 = 131
2x = 131 - 25
2x = 106
x = 106 / 2
x = 53
Small number= 53
Big number = x + 25 = 53 + 25 = 78
2. Let the small number be x
Then, the bug number will be: x + 14
x + x + 14 = 58
2x + 14 = 58
2x = 58 - 14
2x = 44
x = 44/2
x = 22
Small number = 22
Bug number = 22 + 14 = 36
The numbers are 22 and 36.
3. Let number of basketball sold be x
Therefore, number of football sold will be x+3.
Therefore, x + x + 3 = 27
2x + 3 = 27
2x = 27 - 3
2x = 24
x = 24/2
x = 12
12 basketball were sold
Number of footballs sold = 12 + 3 = 15
4. Let calories in bowl of soup x
Hamburger = 2 × x = 2x
Therefore, x + 2x = 738
3x = 738
x = 738/3
x = 246
There are 246 calories in bowl of soup
Calories in hamburgers = 246 × 2 = 492 calories
