Answer:
(c) $72
Step-by-step explanation:
Each tile is 8/12 ft = 2/3 ft on a side. Then 8/(2/3) = 12 tiles will fit along each edge of the square area to be tiled. That is ...
12 × 12 = 144
tiles will be needed to cover the area.
The cost of 144 tiles at $0.50 each is ...
(144)($0.50) = $72.00
Solve the following system using elimination:
{7 x + 2 y = -19 | (equation 1)
{2 y - x = 21 | (equation 2)
Add 1/7 × (equation 1) to equation 2:
{7 x + 2 y = -19 | (equation 1)
{0 x+(16 y)/7 = 128/7 | (equation 2)
Multiply equation 2 by 7/16:
{7 x + 2 y = -19 | (equation 1)
{0 x+y = 8 | (equation 2)
Subtract 2 × (equation 2) from equation 1:
{7 x+0 y = -35 | (equation 1)
{0 x+y = 8 | (equation 2)
Divide equation 1 by 7:
{x+0 y = -5 | (equation 1)
{0 x+y = 8 | (equation 2)
Collect results:
Answer: {x = -5, y = 8
So what will it be a percentage of? it will be the percentage of the original recruits, of the original 150.
for this, we need to divide the number of recruits that left over all recruits, and multiply by 100%:
so the number of trainees decreased by 20 %
Answer:
x = 6/11
Step-by-step explanation:
−23(3x−4)+3x=56
Distribute
-69x + 92 +3x = 56
Combine like terms
-66x+92 = 56
Subtract 92 from each side
-66x+92-92 = 56-92
-66x =-36
Divide each side by -66
-66x/-66 = -36/-66
x = 6/11
