Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let the number of bracelet be b

Let the number of necklace be n

If Ashley charges $6 for a bracelet , the total amount charged for b bracelets will be 6b

If she charge $12 for a necklace, the total amount for n necklace will be 12n

If she earned $168 in total, then:

6b + 12n = 168

Divide through by 6

b + 2n = 28

Hence the equation for this situation is b + 2n = 28

Next is to solve for b:

Make b the subject of the formula:

b + 2n = 28

subtract 2n from both sides

b + 2n - 2n = 28 - 2n

b = 28 -2n

Hence the function for b will  be b = 28-2n

Firdavs [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a probability related problem.

  Probability is the likelihood of an event to occur;

    Pr = \frac{number of possible outcomes}{Total sample space}

The sample space here is from 1 to 25 which is 25

A.

Pr of a card marked 8; we have just 1 possible outcome;

       Pr(8)  = \frac{1}{25}

B.

Pr  of drawing a card that is a multiple of 5;

    Multiples of 5 = 5, 10, 15 and 25

     Pr (multiples of 5) = \frac{4}{25}

C.

Pr of drawing a card with odd numbers:

          Number of odd numbers between 1 and 25  = 13

     Pr(odd numbers) = \frac{13}{25}

D.

Pr of drawing a number with square number on it;

        Square numbers between 1 and 25  = 1, 4, 9, 16 and 25

  Pr(square numbers) = \frac{5}{25}   = \frac{1}{5}

Jack has a rectangular patio with a length that is one foot less than twice its width. His neighbor Ron's patio has the same wid
swat32

Answer:

difference in area = 16 ft²

if you use 8 the difference in length between Jack patio and his neighbor patio will be will be 15 - 13 = 2 ft

if you use 13 the difference i length will be 25 - 18 = 7 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Jacks rectangular patio

width = a

length = 2a - 1

area = lw

where

l = length

w = width

area = 120 ft²

a(2a - 1)

2a² - a - 120 = 0

(a - 8) (2a + 15)

a = 8 or -15/2

Ron's rectangular patio

width = a

length = a + 5

area = lw

area = 104 ft²

a (a + 5) = 104

a² + 5a -104 = 0

(a + 8)  (a - 13)

a = -8 or 13

How many square feet longer is jack patio longer than Ron's patio is the difference in their area. Therefore,

120 - 104 = 16 ft²

The value 8 or 13 can be used for a since the width a have to be the same.

if you use 8 the difference in length between Jack patio and his neighbor patio will be will be 15 - 13 = 2 ft

if you use 13 the difference i length will be 25 - 18 = 7 ft
