Answer:
Company B.
Step-by-step explanation:
On the graph, when x is 1, y is 50. That means it is $50 for one window. On the chart, when there is 1 window, the cost is $55. So, company B is more expensive!
Answer:
D. Mr. X
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: $0.58
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Let x represent pencil and y represent eraser
10x + 7y = 4.23 → 1(10x + 7y = 4.23) → 10x + 7y = 4.23
3x + y = 0.95 → -3(3x + y = 0.95) → <u>-21x - 7y</u> =<u> -6.65 </u>
-11x = -2.42
<u>÷-11 </u> <u>÷-11 </u>
x = 0.22
3x + y = 0.95
3(0.22) + y = 0.95
0.66 + y = 0.95
y = 0.29
2y = 2(0.29) = 0.58
So the formula is
7*(1/3+1/5) = x
First find the common denominator of the fractions. In this case the common denominator of 3 and 5 is 15 so we must convert them to 15ths. To do that we divide 15 by the denominator and take that answer and multiply the numerator by it.
So for 1/3 we take 15/3(denominator) = 5 and multiply the numerator (1) by it
5 * 1 = 5 so 1/3 converts to 5/15
Do the same for 1/5 we take 15/5 = 3 and multiply the numerator (4) by it
3*4 = 12 so 4/5 converts to 12/15
Now we add 5/15 and 12/15 = 17/15 so we have our formula now to
7*17/15
We make seven a fraction 7/1 and multiply across 7*17 = 119 and 15 * 1 = 15
We have 119/15 which when we divide and get 7 14/15 as your answer
