Let the profit at the first year be X
3x=114000
Solve for x by dividing each side by 3
3x/3=114000/3
X=38,000
So the profit was 38000
18 it is this please look144÷8=18
Answer:
8 dollars per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
If you divide 18 to 144 the answer is 8
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
You can start this in may ways but let's start by isolating one of the parenthesis:
x (x² - 5) = - (x - 3)
x³ - 5x = -x + 3 (here I multiplied x for what's inside the parenthesis and the "minus" signal by the other parenthesis which was (x - 3))
x³ - 5x + x = 3
x³ -4x = 3
x³ -4x -3 = 0 (now this right here is a "depressed cubic equation" and it's one of the toughest sit of all time, so good luck with that, you might wanna take a look at this:
ytb/watch?v=rNDy2ZFvG1E
or maybe I'm doing something wrong and it's simpler than that, but whaterver...)
Problem 3: Let x = price of bag of pretzels Let y = price of box of granola bars
We have Lesley's purchase: 4x+2y=13.50
And Landon's: 1x+5y=17.55
We can use the elimination method. Let's negate Landon's purchase by multiplying by -1. -1x-5y=-17.55
We add this four times to Lesley's purchase to eliminate the x variable.
2y-20y=13.50-70.2
-18y=-56.7
y = $3.15 = Price of box of granola bars
Plug back into Landon's purchase to solve for pretzels.
x+5*3.15=17.55
x+15.75=17.55
x = $1.80 = price of bag of pretzels
Problem 4.
Let w = number of wood bats sold
Let m = number of metal bats sold
From sales information we have: w + m = 23
24w+30m=606
Substitution works well here. Solve for w in the first equation, w = 23 - m, and plug this into the second.
24*(23-m)+30m=606
552-24m+30m=606
6m=54
m=9 = number of metal bats sold
Therefore since w = 23-m, w = 23-9 = 14. 14 wooden bats were sold.
