Answer:
No solution
Step-by-step explanation:
5(x + 4) – x = 4(x + 5) – 1
x = ?
Solution:
5(x+4)−x=4(x+5)−1
Apply Distributive property:
- (5)(x)+(5)(4)−x=(4)(x)+(4)(5)−1
- 5x+20−x=4x+20−1
Combine Like Terms:
- (5x−x)+(20)=(4x)+(20−1)
- 4x+20=4x+19
- 4x+20=4x+19
Subtract 4x from both sides:
Subtract 20 from both sides:
There isn't any solutions.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
x-the original price
y- the discounted price
y= the original price - 25 % discounted from x = x- (.25*x) = x( 1-.25) = .75x
equation is y= .75x
The equation should only be in the first quadrant because the prices can only be positive numbers.
Answer:
3x +4y = 118
5x+6y =180
y= $25
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = the cost of a flashlight
Let y = the cost of a sleeping bag
3x +4y = 118
5x+6y =180
Multiply the first equation by -5
-5(3x +4y) = -5*118
-15x -20y = -590
Multiply the second equation by 3
3(5x+6y) =3*180
15x + 18y = 540
Add the modified equations together.
We are using elimination to eliminate the variable x
-15x -20y = -590
15x + 18y = 540
----------------------------
-2y = -50
Divide by -2
-2y/-2 = -50/-2
y =25
Each sleeping bag costs $25
Answer:
0.72
