Answer: the number of item A that you sold is 11
the number of item B that you sold is 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of item A that you sold.
Let y represent the number of item B that you sold.
The total number of item A and item B sold is 13. This means that
x + y = 13
The cost of item A is $8 and the
cost of item B is $4. The total amount if money made is $88. This means that
8x + 4y = 88 - - - - - - - - - -1
Substituting x = 13 - y into equation 1, it becomes
8(13 - y) + 4y = 88
104 - 8y = 88
8y = 104 - 88 = 16
y = 16/8 = 2
x = 13 - y = 13 - 2 = 11
The answer is
B. -2 and 3
Step-by-step explanation :
Given the expression
x²- 5x + 6 = 0
Firstly we need to find two numbers that when multiplied will give us the constant term 6, and when added will give us the 2nd term 5
These numbers are 3 and 2
Substituting 2x +3x for 5x
x²- (2x+3x)+ 6 = 0
x²-2x-3x+6=0
(x²-2x)-(3x+6)=0
Factoring we have
x(x-2)-3(x-2)=0
x-3=0, x-2=0
x=3, x= 2
Answer:
2.4 hr. = time working together
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = time working together
x/6 = work done by Martin
x/4 = work done by Victor
Martin's part + Victor's part = 1 jog done
x/6 + x/4 = 1 Multiply thru by 12
2x + 3x = 12
5x = 12
x = 2.4 hr.
