Answer:
A) x = 0, 2
Step-by-step explanation:
(x + 4) / 6x = 1 / x
this is a proportion, so you can cross-multiply and get:
x(x + 4) = 6x
x² + 4x = 6x
x² - 2x = 0
x(x - 2) = 0
x = 0
x - 2 = 0 so, x = 2
Answer:
"Brand A costs approximately $0.21 per ounce, and Brand B costs approximately $0.18 per ounce."
In order to find the rounded cost per one item (in this case, per one ounce) Susan needs to divide the total price between the number of units and after that, round the result obtained up to the nearest cent.
Therefore:
Brand A
2.55$/12 ounces= 0.2125 $/ounce
As the third decimal digit, 2, is closer to 0 than to 9, then we maintain the second decimal digit as 1.
The price per unit of brand A after rounding it up is 0.21 $ per ounce
Brand B
1.45$/8 ounces= 0.1812
As the third decimal digit, 1, is closer to 0 than to 9, then we maintain the second decimal digit as 8.
The price per unit of brand B after rounding it up is 0.18 $ per ounce
Answer:
0
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying
-7(x + -2) + 1 = 15 + -7x
Reorder the terms:
-7(-2 + x) + 1 = 15 + -7x
(-2 * -7 + x * -7) + 1 = 15 + -7x
(14 + -7x) + 1 = 15 + -7x
Reorder the terms:
14 + 1 + -7x = 15 + -7x
Combine like terms: 14 + 1 = 15
15 + -7x = 15 + -7x
Add '-15' to each side of the equation.
15 + -15 + -7x = 15 + -15 + -7x
Combine like terms: 15 + -15 = 0
0 + -7x = 15 + -15 + -7x
-7x = 15 + -15 + -7x
Combine like terms: 15 + -15 = 0
-7x = 0 + -7x
-7x = -7x
Add '7x' to each side of the equation.
-7x + 7x = -7x + 7x
Combine like terms: -7x + 7x = 0
0 = -7x + 7x
Combine like terms: -7x + 7x = 0
0 = 0
Solving
0 = 0
Couldn't find a variable to solve for.
This equation is an identity, all real numbers are solutions.
Answer: Look at it this way, you are adding 4.2, .5 times. So if you find what 1.5 is of 4.2 you then add that to 4.2. The 1 stands for how many times the number is being multiplied by. So in this case the number is only being multiplied once. Then we move onto the decimal point which says that the number is being multiplied by .5 times. This means that 2.1 (which is half of 4.2) is being added onto 4.2. Hope this makes sense. I always use a calculator for multiplying so its hard to put the process into words haha.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Total tickets = 70
Total cost = $550
Adult's ticket = $9
Child's ticket = $5
Difference = 9 - 5 = $4
Assume all 70 are child's tickets
5 x 70 = 350
But the total cost was 550
550 - 350 = $200
The $200 must have come from Adult's tickets, which has a difference of $4.
200 ÷ 4 = 50
So there are 50 adult's tickets.
70 - 50 = 20
And there are 20 child's tickets.
Hope this helps - Itz.Jordan
