Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the larger number be w and the smaller number be k;
5w-11=3k
3k+16=4w
Reorganizing the equations;
5w-3k=11
4w-3k=16
Subtracting equation 2 from equation 1:
w=-5
Replacing value of w in equation 1;
5(-5)-11=3k
-25-11=3k
3k=-36
k=-12
The numbers are -5 and -12
Answer:
1) 15a - 15c + 3
2) -7n + 31 + 13m + 7p or 13m - 7n + 7p + 31
3) 44x + 6y + 3
4) 9m - 6n + 23
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Add like terms. 6a + 9a=15a. -8c - 7c=-15c
2. Add like terms. You can rearrange them in descending order based off of exponents and variables.
3. Multiply what's in parentheses first (distribute the 6). It should end up being (6y + 42x). Then you add like terms and put in descending order.
4. Distribute the (-3) to what in the parentheses. It should end up being (-6n + 15 - 3m). Then you add like terms and put the expression in descending order.
Answer:
$52
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that :
Amount charged for shipping and handling = 4.5%
Let cost of order = x
Total amount charged = 54.34
However,
total. Amount charged = (total cost + handling and shipping)
54.34 = x + 0.045x
54.34 = 1.045x
Order total before shipping = 54.34 / 1.045
Order total before shipping = 52
