Answer:

$398 and $796

Step-by-step explanation:

w = cost of the washer

d = cost of the dryer

w + d = $1194

w = 2d

Substitute the w into the first equation.

2d + d = $1194

3d = $1194

d = $398

Substitute d into either equation.

w=2(398)

w=$796

It would be answer A because answer A has the same slope as the equation in the question, none of the other answers have the same slope as 7/6. there is -7/6, but all that means is that the equation is negative. we need a positive equation.

State the converse, contrapositive, and inverse of each of these conditional statements a) If it snows tonight, then I will stay

marissa [1.9K]

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

For the condition statement $p \rightarrow q$ or equivalent "If p then q"

The rule for Converse is: Interchange the two statements.
The rule for Inverse is: Negative both statements.
The rule for Contrapositive is: Negative both statements and interchange them.

Part (A) If it snows tonight, then I will stay at home.

Here p is If it snows tonight, and q is I will stay at home.

Converse: If I will stay at home then it snows tonight.

$q \rightarrow p$

Inverse: If it doesn't snows tonight, then I will not stay at home.

$\sim p \rightarrow \sim q$

Contrapositive: If I will not stay at home then it doesn't snows tonight.

$\sim q \rightarrow \sim p$

Part (B) I go to the beach whenever it is a sunny summer day.

Here p is I go to the beach, and q is it is a sunny summer day.

Converse: It is a sunny summer day whenever I go to the beach.

$q \rightarrow p$

Inverse: I don't go to the beach whenever it is not a sunny summer day.

$\sim p \rightarrow \sim q$

Contrapositive: It is not a sunny summer day whenever I don't go to the beach.

$\sim q \rightarrow \sim p$

Part (C) When I stay up late, it is necessary that I sleep until noon.

P is I sleep until noon and q is I stay up late.

Converse: If I sleep until noon, then it is necessary that i stay up late.

$q \rightarrow p$

Inverse: When I don't stay up late, it is necessary that I don't sleep until noon.

$\sim p \rightarrow \sim q$

Contrapositive: If I don't sleep until noon, then it is not necessary that i stay up late.

$\sim q \rightarrow \sim p$

kati45 [8]

12000 = 2x - 1500
12000 + 1500 = 2x
13500 = 2x
13500/2 = x
6750 = x <=== original price

Factor the expression.

nalin [4]

6x^2+14x+4
First factor out all numerical factors (=2 in this case)
2(3x^2+7x+2)
look for m,n such that m*n=3*2, m+n=7 => m=6, n=1
2(3x^2+6x + 1x+2)
Factor 3x^2+6x into 3x(x+2)
2( 3x(x+2)+1(x+2) )
factor out common factor (x+2)
2(x+2)(3x+1)
=>
6x^2+14x+4=2(x+2)(3x+1)
