Answer:

one gadget costs $15.80

Step-by-step explanation:

Let w = cost of one widget

Let g = cost of one gadget

Given:

  • Five widgets and three gadgets cost $109. 90

⇒ 5w + 3g = 109.9

Given:

  • One widget and four gadgets cost $75. 70

⇒ w + 4g = 75.7

Rewrite  w + 4g = 75.7  to make w the subject:

⇒ w = 75.7 - 4g

Substitute into  5w + 3g = 109.9  and solve for g:

⇒ 5(75.7 - 4g) + 3g = 109.9

⇒ 378.5 - 20g + 3g = 109.9

⇒ 378.5 - 109.9 = 20g - 3g

⇒ 268.6 = 17g

⇒ g = 15.8

Therefore, one gadget costs $15.80

To find the cost of one widget, substitute the found value for g into
w = 75.7 - 4g and solve for w:

⇒ w = 75.7 - 4(15.8)

⇒ w = 75.7 - 63.2

⇒ w = 12.5

Therefore, one widget costs $12.50

The slope of the line below is 2. Which of the following is the the point-slope form of the line?
Jobisdone [24]

Answer:  y + 1 = 2 (x -1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Point slope form is:

y - y1 = m (x - x1)

Point on the line is (1, -1) and slope is 2

m = 2

y1 = -1

x1 = 1

y - (-1) = 2 (x - 1) or y + 1 = 2 (x -1)

What is the surface area of a sphere with the given dimension? Express your answer to nearest hundredth. Use 3.14 for pi. Radius
pav-90 [236]
Okay. The equation for a sphere's surface area is A = 4 * pi * r^2. Let's plug 5 in for r. 
4 \pi (5^2) = 4(3.14)*25 = 100 * 3.14 = 314
I got 314 cm^2 is the surface area, but it always helps to double check work! Hope this helps!

If g(x)=2x-1 and h(x)= swuare root x, find (g o h) (9)
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

To evaluate (g ○ h)(9), evaluate h(9) , then use this value to evaluate g(x)

h(9) = \sqrt{9} = 3, then

g(3) = 2(3) - 1 = 6 - 1 = 5
