Answer:
x = -122/13 OR 9.3846
Step-by-step explanation:
First, take a look at the second equation. Add 8x to the other side.
-7y= 8x -18
Then, divide by -7 to get a regular "y=" equation.
y= 8/7x -18/7
Move on the the first equation. Let's get "y" by itself. Add 3x to the other side.
y= 3x +15
Considering both equations are equal to Y, set them equal ( except the "y" part )
8/7x - 18/7 = 3x + 15
Multiply all by seven so that there are no fractions.
8x - 18 = 21x + 105
Subtract 8x from both sides.
-17 = 13x + 105
Subtract 105 from both sides.
-122 = 13x
Divide by 13 on both sides.
x = 9.3846
Or if you don't want decimals, just say x = -122/13
Quick Note: I made a mistake. I had looked at the second equation at -18. The answer is incorrect but the method of solving is correct. Also, make sure to plug in the value of x to get Y.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
30 + .40(30) = 30(1 + .40) = 30(1.4) = $42
The change in profit from 3 days to 8 days = 74 - 59 = $15
The number of days is 8-3 = 5 days
The change per day is 15 / 5 = $3 per day.
The answer is A. $3
Answer:
x=13
Step-by-step explanation:
Q is the midpoint of PR
PQ + QR = PR
PQ= QR
PQ+QR = PR
QF + QR = PR
2QR = PR
2*43 = 9x-31
86 = 9x-31
Add 31 to each side
86+31 = 9x-31+31
117 = 9x
Divide each side by 9
117/9 = 9x/9
13 =x
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the total points be x
<u>Mark earned 90% of x which is 108 points:</u>
- 0.9x = 108
- x = 108/0.9
- x = 120
Total points were 120
