Answer:
answer given in step by step...
Step-by-step explanation:
13x+13(x+1)+13(x+2)=312
13x+13x+13+13x+26=312
39x+39=312
39x=312-39
39x=273
x=7
first number=13x=13*7=91
second number=13(8)=104
third number=13(9)=117
Answer:
The value of k is 8/3
Step-by-step explanation:
To find this, start with the base equation and input the values. Then solve for k.
y = kx
24 = k9
24/9 = k
8/3 = k
Answer:
shirt = $20
sweater = $35
Step-by-step explanation:
This question would be solved using simultaneous equation
Let the price of sweater be represented by a
Let the price of shirt be represented by b
The following equations can be derived from the question
2a + 4b = 150 equation 1
4a + 3b = 200 equation 2
Multiply equation 1 by 2
4a + 8b = 300 equation 3
Subtract equation 2 from 3
5b = 100
divide both sides of the equation by 5
b = 20
substitute for b in equation 1
2a + 4(20) = 150
2a + 80 = 150
collect like terms
2a = 150 - 80
2a = 70
divide both sides by 2
a = 35
Price of sweater = $35
Price of shirt = $20
1). $2,700 is (2,700/6,000) = 45% of 6,000.
It took 6 years to earn it, so it earned (45%/6) = 7.5% each year.
That's the simple-interest rate.

2). The investment earns 4.5% each year, so it earned 9% in 2 years.
The $1,150.65 is the 9% of the original investment. Call it V.
1150.65 = 0.09 x V .
Divide each side by 0.09 :
V = 1150.65 / 0.09 = $12,785 .

3). There are 18 marbles in the bag all together.
a). 8 of them are green. If you close your eyes and pull out 1 marble,
the probability that it's a green one is
8/18 = 4/9 = 44.4% .
b). If it was a red marble, and you put it in your pocket, then
there are only 17 in the bag now, and 8 of them are still green.
If you pull another one, the probability that it's green is
8/17 = 47.1% .

5). There are 10 marbles in the bag all together.
(The second sentence doesn't say anything, and doesn't mean anything.)
If you pull out a silver marble and put it in your pocket, then
there are 9 marbles in the bag, and 2 of them are orange.
The probability of pulling an orange marble now is
2/9 = 22.2% .
