Answer:

x = 5, y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the value of x in respect to y:

2x + 3y = 16
2x = 16 - 3y

x = 8 - 3/2y

Then, substitute this expression into the second equation (Since we've established x is equal to 8 - 3/2y, we can put that in place of x):

4(8 - 3/2y) + 10y = 40

Then, distribute and solve for y:

32 - 6y + 10y = 40
32 + 4y = 40
4y = 8
<u>y = 2</u>

Now that we know what y equals, we can substitute the value of y in the equation to find x:
2x + 3(2) = 16
2x + 6 = 16
2x = 10

<u>x = 5</u>

Answer:

  33.3%

Step-by-step explanation:

The selling price of £42 is (1 +40%) times the total purchase price.

  1.40 × purchase price = £42

  purchase price = £42/1.40 = £30

The total profit is 40% of this, so is ...

  £30 × 40% = £12

The purchase price of the skirt is ...

  total cost - glove cost = skirt cost = £30 -3 = £27

The profit on the skirt is ...

  total profit - glove profit = skirt profit = £12 -100% × £3 = £9

Then the percentage profit on the skirt is ...

  skirt profit % = skirt profit / skirt cost × 100% = £9/£27 × 100% = 33.3%

The percentage profit on the cost of the skirt was 33.3%.

The base and height of a right triangle are 20 inches and 15 inches. Find the length of the hypotenuse.
Karolina [17]

Using the Pythagorean theorem:

Hypotenuse = sqrt( 20^2 + 15^2)

Hypotenuse = sqrt( 400 + 225)

Hypotenuse = sqrt(625)

Hypotenuse = 25

Answer: 25 inches

Answer:

  4. True

  5. False

Step-by-step explanation:

4. The number of x-intercepts produced by the quadratic formula may be 0, 1, or 2. It will be 0 if the two roots are complex. It will be 1 if the two roots lie in the same place (one root with multiplicity 2). It is true that there may be only one x-intercept.

__

5. The value of 'b' in the quadratic formula is the coefficient of the linear term. In the given quadratic, it is -5, not 5.
