Answer:
Use the explantion to answer your question
Step-by-step explanation:
Amount he paid for first 20 shares
= $25 + (20 x $10.51)
= $25 + $210.20
= $235.20
Amount he paid for next 20 shares
= $25 + (20 x $8.93)
= $25 + $178.60
= $203.60
Thus, total amount paid
= $235.20 + $203.60
= $438.80
If you have at least as many equations as your have unknown variables, the 'system' is solvable (unless the equations are copies of eachother).
In this case, isolate one letter and plug it in the other. I'm going for the 2a in the bottom one (it doesn't matter)
2a - 4b = 12 => (divide by two and move the b's to the other side)
a = 6 + 2b. (plug this one into the top equation)
4(6+2b) + 6b = 10 => 24+8b+6b = 10 => 24 + 14b = 10 => 14b = -14 => b=-1
a = 6 + -2 = 4.
So a=4 and b=-1.
Answer:
x = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
5 + 2x + 6 = x + 10
11 + 2x = x + 10
-x -x
11 + x = 10
-11 -11
x= -1
If that’s meant to be x^2 - 6x - 16
Then factorise to (x+2)(x-8)
So x intercepts are -2 and 8

Answer:
x = 22.5°
Step-by-step explanation:
Angle BED ≅ angle EBC = 6x, so angle BEA = 4x. The angles FEB and BEA form a linear pair, so we have ...
4x +4x = 180°
x = 22.5° . . . . . . divide by 8
_____
BED and EBC are "alternate interior angles" with respect to transversal BE crossing parallel lines DE and AC.
