The answer is 3/5.
Continue this pattern and you'll see that it follows this geometric sequence
To answer this problem, let p be the price of each scrub. The total bill (t) is the sum of the price of the potting soil (s) and of the 9 scrubs (n). This is depicted in the equation,
$11.50 + 9p = $94.75
The value of p from the equation is 9.25. Thus, each scrub costs $9.25. The answer is letter C.
Answer:
2x^2-6x-4
Step-by-step explanation:
(7x2 + 4x - 9)
-(5x2 + 10x - 5)
=
7x^2-5x^2=2x^2
4x-10x=-6x
-9-(-5)=-4
thus, your answer is 2x^2-6x-4
The rational exponent will have the root as the deminator and the power as the numerator.
So for this one the expression is
x^5/6
Answer:
<em>$4.15</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the cost of a cheeseburger be x
Let the cost of a soft pretzels be y
If Mr. Smith goes to the concession stand and buys 2 soft pretzels and 1 cheeseburger for $8.25, this is expressed as;
x + 2y = 8.25 .... 1
Also, if Mr. Martin goes to the same concession stand and buys 1 soft pretzel and 3 cheeseburgers for $13.50, this is expressed as;
3x + y = 13. 50..... 2
The required equations are:
x + 2y = 8.25
3x + y = 13. 50
Find x and y by solving simultaneously:
From 1: x + 2y = 8.25
x = 8.25 - 2y ..... 3
Substitute 3 into 2
3(8.25-2y)+y = 13.50
24.75 - 6y+y = 13.50
24.75 - 5y = 13.50
-5y = 14.50 - 24.75
-5 y = 10.25
y = -10.25/-5
y = 2.05
Since x = 8.25 - 2y
x = 8.25 - 2(2.05)
x = 8.25 - 4.1
x = 4.15
<em>Hence the cost of a cheesburger is $4.15</em>
