Answer:
8. m=6
9. x=2; Alyssa is incorrect because she subtracted 8 from 16 when in reality she should have divided 16 by 8 to get 2. The real solution is 2 because 8 times 2 is equal to 16.
Step-by-step explanation:
Question 8:
2m-6=m
-2m -2m (subtract 2m from both sides)
<u>-6</u>=<u>-m</u>
- - (divide both sides by the negative)
m=6
Question 9:
<u>8x</u>=<u>16 </u> (divide both sides of the equation by 8)
8 8
x=2
Answer:
not sure about 1
for number 2 it is 5 over 4 . for y, 5 10 15 20 is a multiple of 5 so the change is 5. for x, 4 8 12 16 is a multiple of 4 so the change is 4.
Answer:
each notebook costs $2.70
each pack of pencils costs $1.50
Step-by-step explanation:
system of equations:
let p = pack of pencils
let n = notebook
3p + 5n = 18
4p + 4n = 16.8
I used the elimination method by multiplying the first equation by 4 and the second equation by -3
4(3p + 5n = 18) = 12p + 20n = 72
-3(4p + 4n = 16.8) = -12p -12n = -50.4
adding the new equations together you get: 8n = 21.6
n = 21.6/8
n = $2.70
solve for 'p':
3p + 5(2.7) = 18
3p + 13.5 = 18
3p = 4.5
p = $1.50
Answer:
47.88milliliters
Step-by-step explanation:
Given data
Total amount of the solution= 342 milliliters
14% is acid
Hence the amount of acid
=14/100* 342
=0.14* 342
=47.88milliliters
Therefore there are 47.88milliliters of acid
