This is how I would solve it:
1st # = x 4(x+1)=3x+18
2nd # = x+1 4x+4=3x+18
4x=3x+14
x=14
To check: 15x4=60; 60-42=18. <u>1st # = 14; 2nd # = 15.</u>
6√90 = <span>2.11693286302546
So, this number to the power of six equals 90.
</span><span>2.11693286302546^6 = 90
</span>
The correct answer is <span>2.11693286302546. </span>
4) 2 1/4 - 1 2/3
8/4 - 5/3
24/12 - 20/12= 4/12
simplify: 1/3
5) 2.951+2.3+1.24= 6.491
We know that there are 21 buttons total. x is the number of small buttons and y is the number of large buttons.
Therefore, our first equation should be x+y = 21.
We know the small buttons sell for 3 dollars, meaning 3x represents how much is made from the small buttons. The larger buttons sell for 4 dollars, meaning 4y is how much is made from the large buttons.
We also know that the total of the buttons sold is 68 dollars. Therefore 3x + 4y = 68 is our second equation.
From this information, the answer is the first set.
