Answer:
1. n= 14
2. n=3
Step-by-step explanation:
For the first problem, let's break down the equation. The number being thought about can be represented by <em>n</em>. Then <em>n </em>is increased by 7, or simply put 7+ <em>n. </em>The sum is 21, so to find n you can use the equation 7 + n = 24 and solve for <em>n, </em>which is 14.
For problem two, the same strategy can be used. The number is <em>n, </em>multiplied by 9. So, 9 * <em>n</em> is equal to 27. Solve for n by isolating n, and the answer is 3.

Answer:
Style A shoes sold : <u>152</u>
Style B shoes sold : <u>88</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
Let :
- Style A shoes = x
- Style B shoes = y
Forming equations :
- x = 2y - 24
- 66.95x + 84.95y = 17,652
Substitute the value of x from 1 in 2.
- 66.95 (2y - 24) + 84.95y = 17,652
- 133.90y - 1606.80 + 84.95y = 17,652
- 218.85y = 19258.80
- <u>y = 88</u>
<u />
Finding x :
- x = 2(88) - 24
- x = 176 - 24
- <u>x = 152</u>
<u />
Solution :
- Style A shoes sold : <u>152</u>
- Style B shoes sold : <u>88</u>
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
Okay! Time to use the Pythagoras theorem.
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
4^2 + 7^2 = x^2
16 + 49 = c^2
65 = c^2
Let's take the square root of both sides to get
c ~ 8.06

Answer:
B) 12.5 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
set up a proportion of inches/feet equals inches/feet
let 'h' = height of sign
5.4/18 = 3.75/h
cross-multiply:
5.4h = 67.5
h = 12.5
