Answer:

12 white 28 printed

Step-by-step explanation:

x = white y = printed

x + y = 40————(1)

4.95x + 7.95y = 282————(2)

Solve for x using 1st equation

x = 40 - y Plug in for x using 2nd equation

4.95(40 - y) + 7.95y = 282 Solve for y

198 - 4.95y + 7.95y = 282

3y = 84

y = 28         Plug in for y using 1st equation

x + (28) = 40     Solve for x

x = 12

I hope this helped and please mark me as brainliest!

Answer:

12 white shirts and 28 printed shirts

Step-by-step explanation:

1. 4.95x + 7.95y = 282

x + y = 40

2. Guess and Check

12 + 28 = 40

4.95 (12) + 7.95 (28) = 59.4 + 222.6

59.4 + 222.6 = 280

3. Answer: 12 white shirts and 28 printed shirts

You can do elimination or substitution, but in this case, I feel like it would've been too complicated.

Solve 4 - 2(-5a - 10)=30 and justify each step
Sergeeva-Olga [200]
First you would do parenthesis according to the PEMDAS(Parenthesis, Exponents, Multiply, Divide, Add, Subtract) Rule

4 -2(-5a -10) = 30

4 + 10a + 20 = 30

Now you need to add 4 and 20 because they are on the same side

24 + 10a = 30

Now subtract 24 on both sides

24 + 10a = 30

-24. -24


10a = 6

Last divide 10 from both sides


10a/10. = 6/10

a= 6/10

Last simplify (optional but recommended)

a = 3/5 or 0.6


Hope this helped :)

Consider the function f(x)=4x-5. what is the domain value that corresponds to an output of f(x)=11?
erastovalidia [21]
F = 4

if f(x)=11, you must always try and get x alone, so f = (11+5)/4, and this simplifies to 4.

Y= 4x + 2<br> where the domain is the set of all of<br> the positive even numbers<br> less than 10.
inysia [295]

The range of the function y = 4x + 2 where the  domain is the set of all of

the positive even numbers  less than 10 is {10, 18, 26, 34}

The given equation is:

y  =  4x  +  2

The domain is the set of all of  the positive even numbers  less than 10.

That is, x = {2, 4, 6 ,8}

To get the range, find the values of y for x = 2, 4, 6, and 8

For x = 2:

y = 4(2)  +  2

y  =  8  +  2

y   =  10

For x = 4:

y = 4(4)  +  2

y  =  16  +  2

y   =  18

For x = 6:

y = 4(6)  +  2

y  =  24  +  2

y   =  26

For x = 8:

y = 4(8)  +  2

y  =  32  +  2

y   =  34

Therefore, the range = {10, 18, 26, 34}
