Let g represent video games. The equation you can use to solve for the amount of video games and CDs Jasmine can buy with her savings is:
43g+72=1128
The 43g part is because it costs 43 dollars for every video game, so you need to multiply 43 by the amount of games she buys to get the total for g games.
The +72 part is because you already have the amount spent on CDs, and needs to be added to the cost of video games, so that the sum would be equal to 1128.
Now, solving:
43g+72=1128 ...subtract 72 from both sides
43g=1056 ...divide both sides by 43 to isolate g
g=24.5581395349
Rounded up, that would be 25 games, but Jasmine's savings isn't enough to buy 25 games that cost $43 each, so you would go down to 24 games.
The answer: Jasmine can buy 24 games with her savings after spending $72 on CDs.
Answer:
a = 4 and b = - 30
Step-by-step explanation:
Expand the left side and compare like terms on both sides, that is
(x + 2)(x - 3)(x + 5) ← expand the first pair of factors using FOIL
= (x² - x - 6)(x + 5) ← distribute
= x³ + 5x² - x² - 5x - 6x - 30 ← collect like terms
= x³ + 4x² - 11x - 30
Compare like terms with x³ +ax² - 11x + b
4x² and ax² ⇒ a = 4
+ b and - 30 ⇒ b = - 30
Answer:
7:17 PM
Step-by-step explanation:
Add another 30 minutes to 6:30 = 7:00 PM
47-30 = 17
add the remaining 17 minutes to 7:00 = 7:17 PM
-2 / 5y = 4
Multiply both sides by 5y:
-2/ 5y * 5y = 4 * 5y
refine: -2 = 20 y
Switch sides:
20 y = - 2
Divide both sides by 20
20 y / 20 = - 2 / 20
y = -1/10
hope this helps!
