I’m getting $47.82. So yes, there is enough money. The change would be $2.18.
5(x-1) + 3 = 13
5x - 5 + 3 = 13
5x -2 = 13
5x = 15
x = 15/5
x = 3
Answer:
f(x)=1/2x-5
Step-by-step explanation:
first f(0)=-5 is the y intercept and then you can find the slope using those two points to then find the slope intercept equation y=mx+b
This is a common factor problem.
Pencils come in a pack of 12
Erasers come in a pack of 10
First, break the number into their prime factors(the idea is that we will break the number down into its smallest multiples, which are prime numbers):
10 = 2 * 5
12 = 2 * 2 *3
So now we take the unique multiples of each number, and when we multiply them together, we will get the smallest number that both 10 and 12 can be divided into(this is what the problem is asking for)
We have (2*2*3) that comes from 12, and the only unique number that comes from the 10 is (5)
So now, we multiply:
2*2*3*5=60
However, this isn't exactly out answer. Now we have to divide our answer by the number of each this in the pack to know how many packs to buy.
60/12=5 packs of pencils
60/10= 6 packs of erasers
I hope this helps. Let me know if you have any questions!!
Answer:
35 pounds of $8.00 tea and 15 pounds of $6.00 tea
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the pounds of tea of the $8 kind. 8x would represent the total cost of that type of tea. We can also say 50 - x is the pounds of tea of the $6 kind, so 6(50 - x) is the total cost of that type of tea. 50 * 7.4 represents the total cost of all the tea, and the expression 8x + 6(50 -x) would also represent the same thing. We can write this as an equation,
8x + 6(50 -x) = 50 * 7.4
simplify,
8x + 300 - 6x = 370
2x + 300 = 370
and solve.
2x = 70
x = 35
This means there is 35 pounds of the $8 kind.
We can subtract that from 50 to find,
50 - 35 = 15,
15 pounds is the amount of the $6 kind.
