Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The selling price is ​$495.

The first washing machine:

- is marked down by 30​%

$495 - 100%

$x - 100% - 30% = 70%

Find the value of x:

The second washing machine:

- is marked down by 20​% with an additional 10​% off

$495 - 100%

$y - 100% - 20% = 80%

Find y:

y=$495 . 0.8 = $396

Now,

$396 - 100%

$z - 100% - 10% = 90%

Find z:

z=$396.0.9  = $356.40  = $356

Thus, the sale price of the first washing machine is $347 and the sale price of the second washing machine is $356. The second machine is more expensive.

stiks02 [169]

Here, we are required to determine after how many minutes will the two substances be at the same temperature.

The equation of when the two substances will be at the same temperature and the solution are as follows;

(a) The equation is 96.2 + 1.5(x) = 98.5 + 0.8(x).

(b) The solution is, x = 3.285minutes.

For substance A which is currently at 96.2° and rising at 1.5° each minute; It's temperature after x minutes is given as;

  • T(a) = 96.2 + 1.5(x)

For substance B which is currently at 98.5° and rising at 0.8° each minute; It's temperature after x minutes is given as;

  • T(b) = 98.5 + 0.8(x)

(a) For the two substances to be at the same temperature; T(a) must be equal to T(b).

  • T(a) = T(b)

The equation is therefore;.

96.2 + 1.5(x) = 98.5 + 0.8(x)

(b) To determine the solution;

1.5x - 0.8x = 98.5 - 96.2

0.7x = 2.3

x = 2.3/0.7

x = 3.285minutes.
