The answer is -8 because if you do the math
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that,
DE = 8x - 13
EF = 5x + 17
DF = x + 21
Also,
DE = EF
which means that,
8x - 13 = 5x + 17
8x - 5x = 17 + 13
3x = 30
x = 30/3
x = 10
Now,
DE = 8x - 13 = 8×10 - 13 = 80 - 13 = 67cm
EF = 5x + 17 = 5×10 + 17 = 50 + 17 = 67cm
DF = x + 21 = 10 + 21 = 31cm
Answer:
rational
Step-by-step explanation:
A pharmacist has 40% and 80% of iodine solutions on hand. How many liters of each iodine solution will be required to produce 4 liters of a 50% iodine mixture?
.
Let x = liters of 40% iodine
then
4-x = liters of 80% iodine
Using algebra:
.40x + .80(4-x) = .50(4)
.40x + 3.20-.80x = 2
3.20-.40x = 2
x = 4 liters (40% iodine)
80% iodine:
4-x = 4-4 = 0 liters needed (80% iodine)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Now,
if you add the tip after the sales tax,
you will have:
46.55*(6/100)=2.79
the meal cost now 46.55+2.79=49.34
we add tip
49.34*(18/100)=8.88
total cost 49.34+8.88=58.22
