Answer:

goldfish is 15 and guppies is 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

let the number of goldfish be x

and the number of guppies be y

so

x+y= 25----------1

and

3x+4y= 86-------2

solve 1 and 2

x+y= 25

3x+4y= 86

from 1

x= 25-y

put this in 2

3(25-y)+4y= 86

75-3y+4y= 86

75+y= 86

y= 86-75

y=11

put y= 11 in 1

x+11= 26

x= 26-11

x= 15

Hence goldfish is 15 and guppies is 11

neonofarm [45]

Answer:

Option B is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

List Price=$720

The percentage of discount=13%

In order to find the amount of discount, 13% of the amount has to be calculated. To calculate 13% , the amount is multiplied by 13/100.

Amount of discount=13% of list price

=720*13/100

=720*0.13

=$93.60

The amount of discount is $93.6..

Write an equation that represents the line.<br> Use exact numbers.<br> (-2,-1)<br> (4,6)
vazorg [7]

Check the picture below.

to get the equation of any straight line, we simply need two points off of it, so let's use those in the picture

(\stackrel{x_1}{-2}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{1})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{4}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{6})~\hfill \stackrel{slope}{m}\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise} {\stackrel{y_2}{6}-\stackrel{y1}{1}}}{\underset{run} {\underset{x_2}{4}-\underset{x_1}{(-2)}}} \implies \cfrac{6 -1}{4 +2} \implies \cfrac{ 5 }{ 6 }

\begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-\stackrel{y_1}{1}=\stackrel{m}{\cfrac{5}{6}}(x-\stackrel{x_1}{(-2)})\implies y-1=\cfrac{5}{6}(x+2) \\\\\\ y-1=\cfrac{5}{6}x+\cfrac{5}{3}\implies y=\cfrac{5}{6}x+\cfrac{5}{3}+1\implies y=\cfrac{5}{6}x+\cfrac{8}{3}
