Answer:
15 people
Step-by-step explanation:
let x=total # of people on the team
80%=12
80/100=12/x
cross multiply
80x=1200
division property of equality (divide both sides by 80)
x=15
There are 15 people on the team.
Answer:
- movie: $3.75
- video game: $5.75
Step-by-step explanation:
Two equations in two unknowns can be written:
3m +5v = 40
9m +7v = 74
These can be solved a variety of ways. One of them is using Cramer's rule. It tells you the solution to
is given by ...
- ∆ = bd -ea
- x = (bf -ec)/∆
- y = (cd -fa)/∆
For the numbers above,
- ∆ = 5·9 -7·3 = 24
- m = (5·74 -7·40)/24 = 90/24 = 3.75
- v = (40·9 -74·3)/24 = 138/24 = 5.75
The rental cost for each movie is $3.75; for each video game, it is $5.75.
___
The attached graph shows a graphing calculator solution to these equations.
9c + 4 = 49
The numbers by themselves represent the amount of dollars spent (4 and 49), but since you don’t know the amount of money each candy bar cost, you would put the amount of candy bars and a variable next to it to then solve ($5 per bar)
