Answer:
He bought 6 chairs and 10 tables.
Step-by-step explanation:
x+y = 16
he spent = $1800
1 chair = $50
y chairs = $50y
1 table = $150
x chairs = $150x
so, 150x+50y = 1800
we got two equations :
x+ y = 16
150x+50y = 1800
Using. substitution method,
x+y = 16
so, x = 16-y
Now
150x+50y =1800
or, 150(16-y) + 50y = 1800
or, 2400-150y+50y = 1800
or, 2400-1800 = 150y-50y
or, 600=100y
so, y = 6
now,
x+y = 16
or, x + 6 = 16
so, x = 10
50/250 = 1/5 = 0.20 = 20%
Answer: 20%
Answer:
54, 36
Step-by-step explanation:
67+59+x=60*3
126+x=180
x=54
54 cones on Sunday
_____________________________________
180+x=54*4
180+x=216
x=36

Answer:
a) The percentage of adults who smoke are decreasing with time. b) the equation that best described this data is y=-0.3364x+22.809 (R^2=0.859) in which y is the percentage of adults who smoke and x the number of years. c) the percentage of adults who smoke will be 19.8% and it will not meet the expected 12%, it would take 32 years to reach that value.
Step-by-step explanation:
The data can be plotted to which years is the independent variable and percentage of adults who smoke is the dependent variable. The linear trendline that described this data has a negative slope which indicates that the percentage of adults is decreasing with time. In order to determine if the OSH target is being met, the x is replaced by 9 which is the goal period of nine years. The y is 19% which is higher than the 12% goal. In order to know the period it will take to the reach the goal of 12%, the y is replaced by 12 in the curve and the x is the answer in years = 32 years.
The first step for absolute value equations is to isolate the expression contained within the absolute value bars:
3|2x+4|-1 = 11
3|2x+4| = 12
|2x+4| = 4
so |2x+4| is 4 units away from 0 on a number line, but we don't know in which direction -- negative or positive? you'll have two answers.
2x+4 = 4
AND
2x+4 = -4
solve both of those two step equations and you'll get
x = 0
AND
x = -4
so 0 and -4 are your solutions.
