Answer:

a. $23.80 per pair

b. $190.40

Step-by-step explanation:

3 pairs of jeans for $71.40

so the proportion is 71.40:3 = 23.8:1

23.8:1 = 8(23.8):8(1) = 190.4:8

Answer:

$23.80 per pair, $190.4 for 8 pairs

Step-by-step explanation:

a. assuming each pair of jeans is the same price, just divide the total by 3. the price per pair is 71.40/3, which is $23.80 per pair

b. simply multiply the price of one pair of jeans, as found above, by 8. 23.80*8 is $190.4 for 8 jeans

hope this helped!

Diego is solving this system of equations:
USPshnik [31]

The solutions of the equations are x = 1 and y = 2

The system of equations are

4x + 3y = 10

-4x + 5y = 6

Here we have to use the elimination method. Eliminate the x term and find the value of y term

Add both equation

3y + 5y = 10 +6

Add the like terms

8y = 16

y = 16 / 8

Divide  the terms

y = 2

Substitute the value of x in the first equation

4x + 3y = 10

4x + 3×2 =  10

Multiply the terms

4x + 6  = 10

4x = 10 - 6

4x = 4

x = 4 / 4

Divide the terms

x = 1

Hence, the solutions of the equations are x = 1 and y = 2

Alma invests $300 in an account that compounds interest annually. After 2 years, the balance of the account is $329.49. To the n
-Dominant- [34]

Invested amount (P) = $300.

Time in years (t) = 2 years.

Balance after 2 years (A) = $329.49.

Let us assume rate of interest = r % compounds annually.

We know, formula for compound interest

A=P(1+r)^t

Plugging values in formula, we get

329.49=300(1+r)^2

\mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}300

\frac{300\left(1+r\right)^2}{300}=\frac{329.49}{300}

\left(1+r\right)^2=1.0983

Taking square root on both sides, we get

1+r=\sqrt{1.0983}

\mathrm{Subtract\:}1\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides}

1+r-1=\sqrt{1.0983}-1

r=\sqrt{1.0983}-1

r=1.048-1

r=0.048.

Converting it into percentage by multiplying by 100.

r=0.048 × 100

r  = 4.8 %

Therefore, the rate of interest on the account is 4.8% compounds annually.
