Answer:

Cost of five blouses = $145

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x = cost of blouse

y = cost of skirt

15x + 2y = 505 (1)

5x + 2y = 215 (2)

Subtract (2) from (1) to eliminate y

15x - 5x = 505 - 215

10x = 290

x = 290/10

x = 29

Substitute x = 29 into (2)

5x + 2y = 215 (2)

5(29) + 2y = 215

145 + 2y = 215

2y = 215 - 145

2y = 70

y = 70/2

y = 35

x = cost of blouse = $29

y = cost of skirt = $35

How much do 5 such blouses cost?

cost of a blouse = $29

Cost of five blouses = $29 × 5

= $145

Cost of five blouses = $145

Two sides of a triangle have measures 3 ft. and 6 ft. Also, these sides form a vertex whose angle measures 60 degrees. Calculate
Tanya [424]

Answer:

c² = 3² +6² - 2⋅3⋅6⋅cos 60

c = 27ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the angle is located in  between the sides of the sides, we will use the cosine rule to get the unknown sides

Let c be the missing sides

According to the cosine rule;

c² = a²+ b² - 2abcosC

c² = 3² +6² - 2⋅3⋅6⋅cos 60

c² = 9 + 36 - 36cos60

c² = 45 - 36cos60

c² = 45 - 36(0.5)

c² = 45 - 18

c² = 27ft

Hence the missing attribute is 27ft and the required expression is c² = 3² +6² - 2⋅3⋅6⋅cos 60

Christopher is going to install wallpaper on the four walls of his room. Two of the walls are 14 feet long by 9 feet high. The o
Aliun [14]
Given:
2 walls - 14ft by 9ft
2 walls - 20ft by 9ft

Wall 1 & 2 = 14ft * 9ft = 126 ft² x 2 = 252 ft²
Wall 3 & 4 = 20ft * 9ft = 180 ft² x 2 = 360 ft²

Total area = 252 ft² + 360 ft² = 612 ft²

Cost of 1 single roll: $20
612 ft² ÷ 18 ft² = 34 rolls * $20 = $680

Cost of double roll: $40
612 ft² ÷ 54 ft² = 11.33 rolls ⇒ 12 double rolls
12 * $40 = $480

If Christopher opts for 1 single roll of wallpaper, he'll spend $680.
If he opts for double roll of wallpaper, he'll spend $480.

Double roll of wallpaper is the cheaper option. He'll save $200 if he'll buy the double roll of wallpaper.

The revenue​ (in millions of​ dollars) from the sale of x units at a home supply outlet is given by ​R(x)equals=0.210.21x. The p
Natalka [10]

Answer: a) c(x) = 0.124x + 1.1, b) 13 units

Step-by-step explanation: Revenue function = R(x) = 0.21x

Profit function = p(x) = 0.086 - 1.1

Cost function = c(x) =?

A)

Recall that profit = total revenue - total cost

Hence, total cost = total revenue - profit

c(x) = 0.21x - (0.086x - 1.1)

c(x) = 0.21x - 0.086x + 1.1

c(x) = 0.124x + 1.1

B)

Break even point is the point where total revenue equals total cost

R(x) = c(x)

0.21x = 0.124x + 1.1

0.21x - 0.124x = 1.1

0.086x = 1.1

x = 1.1/0.086

x = 12.79 which is approximately 13 units

. A trader bought A TV set for Birr 2000 and sold it at loss of 11/2% what:was the selling price?​
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

1890

Step-by-step explanation:

Loss = 11/2 % = 5.5 %

Cost price = 2000

Loss = 5.5% of cost price

         = 5.5% * 2000

         = \frac{5.5}{100}*2000\\\\= 5.5*20\\= 110

Selling price = Cost price - loss

                      = 2000 - 110

                      = 1890
