Answer:
A ) 2 bricks are in the stack.
Answer:
15%
Step-by-step explanation:
Let c represent the regular price of the carpet.
Then:
sale price = regular price less discount
$374 = c - $66
Adding $66 to both sides isolates (solves for) c:
$374 + $66 = c = $440. This is the regular price.
$66
---------- = 0.15 This is the fraction of the regular price by
$440 which the regular price is reduced.
Then the percentage of this discount was 0.15(100%) = 15%
If it can be assumed that the total number paper and bags is the same for both orders, then:
#bags ordered in the spring=7*(150/3)=350, so the total of both is 150+350=500. A 5:5 ratio means that the wrapping paper and bags were bout in equal quantities. That means 500/2=250 for each.
Answer: 42 - 8x
Step-by-step explanation:
Here is the complete question:
Jessica had $15. She bought 3 apples for x dollars each. Levi had $27 and bought 5 apples for x dollars each. Which expression represents how much money both Jessica and Levi have left altogether?
Select one:
27 – 5x
42 – 8x
12 – 2x
39 – 3x
From the question, Jessica had $15. She bought 3 apples for x dollars each. This means she had:
15 - (3 × x) = 15 - 3x
Levi had $27 and bought 5 apples for x dollars each. Levi will have:
27 - (5 × x) = 27 - 5x
The amount they'll have altogether will be the addition of their amount left. This will be:
15 - 3x + 27 - 5x
= 15 + 27 - 3x - 5x
= 42 - 8x
Hey there!
40 - 23 = 17
x = 17
Hope this helps
Have a great day (:
