$74.1

Start by adding the 20 dollars back. 20+9.64=29.64 that means that 29.64 is 2/5 of the original price. If we divid that in half you will get 1/5 of the original price. 29.64/2=14.82 now if we multiply that by 5 you will get the original price. 14.82 times 5= 74.1

Answer:

Option C

Step-by-step explanation:

Since it's draining, it means it must start at a certain value and end at a maximum of 0 since water cannot ever be less than 0. Since it's original amount is 40, it can only start draining from 40 and end at max 0 hence 0 ≤ y ≤ 40

Answer:

<em>First Option; 40,</em>

<em>Second Option; x = 3,</em>

<em>Third Option; x = - 5,</em>

<em>Fourth Option; x = 0</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression x^2 + 3 * ( x + 4 ), where x = 4;

x^2 + 3 * ( x + 4 ) ⇒ Substitute the value of 4 in replacement of x,

( 4 )^2 + 3 * ( 4 + 4 ) ⇒ Add the terms in ( ), taking 4^2 at the same time,

16 + 3 * ( 8 ) ⇒ By PEMDAS, multiply 3 by 8 first,

16 + 24 ⇒ And now add the remaining terms,

<em>Solution; 40</em>

This next equation is given to be 5 * ( 2x - 1 ) = 25, where we must solve for x;

5 * ( 2x - 1 ) = 25 ⇒ Distribute the 5 to the terms in ( ),

10x - 5 = 25 ⇒ Add 5 on either side of the equation,

10x = 30 ⇒ Divide 10 on either side of equation,

<em>Solution; x = 3</em>

Here we must solve for the value of x provided the equation 6x + 4 - x = 2x - 11;

6x + 4 - x = 2x - 11 ⇒ Add 11 on either side,

6x + 15 - x = 2x ⇒ Add x on either side of equation,

6x + 15 = 3x ⇒ Subtract 6x on either side,

15 = - 3x ⇒ Divide 3 on either side,

<em>Solution; x = - 5 </em>

Now we are given the equation 4 - ( 3x + 4 ) = - 9x, solving for the value of x;

4 - ( 3x + 4 ) = - 9x ⇒ Distribute the - 1 to all terms in ( ),

4 - 3x - 4 = - 9x ⇒ Add 3x on either side of equation,

4 - 4 = - 6x ⇒ Subtract 4 from 4,

0 = - 6x ⇒ Divide - 6 on either side,

<em>Solution; x = 0</em>

adoni [48]

Answer: 1000 hot dogs and and 1600 sodas were sold.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of hot dogs and y be the number of sodas.

Given : The concession stand at an ice hockey rink had receipts of $6200 from selling a total of 2600 sodas and hot dogs.

Each soda sold for $2 and each hot dog sold for $3 .

Then, we have the following system of two linear equations:-

x+y=2600-----------(1)\\\\3x+2y=6200-----------(2)

Multiplying 2 on both sides of (1), we get

2x+2y=5200------------(3)

Now, Eliminate equation (3) from equation (2), we get

x=1000

Put x=1000 in (1), we get

1000+y=2600\\\\\Rightarrow\ y=2600-1000=1600

Hence, 1000 hot dogs and and 1600 sodas were sold.

At total of 2 feet of snow falls over three days on the first day 1/6 of the snow falls on the second day 7/12 of the snow falls
ioda

Answer:

Day\ 3 = 1\frac{3}{12}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Total = 2ft

Day\ 1 = \frac{1}{6}

Day\ 2 = \frac{7}{12}

Required

Determine the amount of snow on day 3

This can be calculated using:

Day\ 1 + Day\ 2 + Day\ 3 = Total

Substitute values for the known parameters

\frac{1}{6} + \frac{7}{12} + Day\ 3 = 2

Collect Like Terms

Day\ 3 = 2 - \frac{1}{6} - \frac{7}{12}

Take LCM

Day\ 3 = \frac{24 - 2 - 7}{12}

Day\ 3 = \frac{15}{12}

Express as mixed number

Day\ 3 = 1\frac{3}{12}
