Let us assume the first number = x
Then the second number = 5x -2
The third number = x + 4
The total number that needs to be divided into three parts is 219
Then we can write the equation as
x + 5x - 2 + x + 4 = 219
7x + 2 = 219
7x = 219 - 2
7x = 217
x = 217/7
= 31
Then
First number = 31
Second number = 5x - 2
= (5 * 31) - 2
= 155 -2
= 153
Third number = x + 4
= 31 + 4
= 35
So the three numbers are 31, 153 and 35.
Answer:
The market sold 18 6-ounce cans of soup on Tuesday
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us solve the question
- The number of the 6-ounce cans is x
- The number of 12-ounce cans is y
- 6x + 12y = 420
→ Divide each term by 6 to simplify the equation
- x + 2y = 70 ⇒ (1)
- x + y = 44 ⇒ (2)
→ Subtract equation (2) from equation (1)
- (x - x) + (2y - y) = (70 - 44)
- 0 + y = 26
- y = 26
Substitute the value of y in equation (2) to find the value of x
-x + 26 = 44
→ Subtract 26 from both sides
- x + 26 - 26 = 44 - 26
- x = 18
- x represents the number of the 6-ounce cans
- The market sold 18 6-ounce cans of soup on Tuesday
Answer:
Commutative property of multiplication
Step-by-step explanation:
Properties of Multiplication:
Commutative:
Multiplying two or more factors in a different order.
ex: 2 x 4 x 5 = 2 x 5 x 4
Associative:
Multiplying factors in parenthesis with different grouping. usually to make the problem simpler.
ex: (13 x 4) x 25 = 13 x (4 x 25)
Distributive:
Distributing a multiplicand to factors in parenthesis.
ex: 2(4 - 1) = 2(4) - 2(1)
ex: 2(8+7) = 2(8) + 2(7)

I'd say D. A uses words that suggest the author has an opinion of Alex's behavior that is unfavorable. B uses the words "obviously less disciplined" to refer to Sue, which is clearly an opinion and also rather unfavorable. C makes assumptions as to Joan's emotions toward Mary, which cannot be ascertained objectively without asking Joan. D is a clear statement of the facts without embellishment.
EDIT: Note that the definition of objective is not influenced by opinions or beliefs, as opposed to subjective.
Beth purchased $21.25 worth of groceries. The sales tax rate is 7.5%. What was her total bill?
The tax is calculated by 0.075 * 21.25 = 1.59375 or $1.59. So the total bill is the cost of items purchased plus tax, which is $21.25 + $1.59 = $22.84.
Back to your question:
What is the total cost of a sweatshirt if the regular price is $45 and the sales tax 5.75%
The tax is calculated by 0.0575 * 45 = 2.5875 or $2.59. So the total bill is the cost of items purchased plus tax, which is $45 + $2.59 = $47.59
Hope this helped! Good luck!
