x = [tex]3\frac{3}{4}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you have to leave 2x by itself on the left side of the equation:

2x = 60/8

Then divide,

x = 15/4

Simplified fraction: x = [tex]3\frac{3}{4}[/tex]

17 apples and 12 oranges cost $10.44. 3 apples and 4 oranges cost $2.84. How much does 1 orange cost?

Answers

Answer:

0.48$

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of 1 Apple = A

 

Cost of 1 Orange = O

 

 

Six apples and three oranges cost $3.36 equivalent to:

 

6A + 3O = 3.36 (1st equation).

 

Two apples and five oranges cost $3.04 equivalent to:

 

2A + 5O = 3.04 (2nd equation).

 

 

Now we have to solve the 2 equations with 2 uknowns (the cost of 1 Apple = A, and the cost of 1 Orange = O).

 

6A + 3O = 3.36 (Equation 1)

2A + 5O = 3.04 (Equation 2), multiplying this equation by 3 we get:

 

6A + 3O = 3.36 (Equation 1)

6A + 15O = 9.12 (Equation 2), Now equation 2 minus equation 1 we get:

 

 

6A-6A +15O -3O = 9.12-3.36 equivalent to:

 

12O = 5.76 => O = 5.76/12 = 0.48 ( the cost of one Orange is 0.48$)

 

Go back to equation 1 and solve for the cost of 1 apple:

 

6A + 3x0.48 = 3.36 =>

6A + 1.44 = 3.36 =>

6A = 1.92 =>

A = 1.92/6 = 0.32 ( the cost of one apple is 0.32$)

 

Summary: The cost of one apple is 0.32$ and the cost of one orange is 0.48$.

The answer is 48¢... Hope it helps!!

Bethany can mow her lamily's lawn in 4 hours. Her brother coin can mow the lawn into hoursWhich equation can ve
used to find the number of hours, x, it would take for Bethany and Colin to mow the lawn together?

Answers

Answer:

1/x = 1/4 + 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

In 4 hours Bethany did the whole fraction 1 of the house.

In 1 hour he would do 1/4 of it.

In 3 hours Colin did the whole fraction 1 of the house.

In 1 hour he would do 1/3 of it.

In 1 hour they would both do (1/4 + 1/3)

If it takes both of them x hours to finish 1 whole fraction of the house.

In 1 hour they will both do 1/x

That means that:

1/x = 1/4 + 1/3

That is the equation. x can be solved for.

A salesperson earns $450 per week plus 15% of her weekly sales. The
expression representing her earnings is 450 +0.15x. Which of the following
describes the sales necessary for the salesperson to earn at least $600 in
one week?

Answers

Answer:

If a sales person wants to earn $600 in 1 week they have to make $1000 dollar sale or a bunch of sales that can make $1000

Step-by-step explanation:

Because $600 - $450 gives you $150, and $150 is 15% of her sales to if we were to divide $150 by 0.15 ( 15% in decimal for ) we would get $1000 meaning 15% of 1000 is 150.

if 72 is 40% what is 100%?

Answers

Answer:

180

Step-by-step explanation:

If 40% = 72, 100% can be found like so:

40% = 72

100% =  [tex]\frac{100}{1}[/tex] * [tex]\frac{72}{40}[/tex]

You can reduce 40 and 100 by 20 (or probably more, but I'll use 20)

So now we have:

[tex]\frac{50}{1}[/tex] * [tex]\frac{72}{20}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{3600}{20}[/tex]

Divide, and you get 180.

To check, we can find 40% of 180.

The library has 65400 art books and 9600 science books. What part of all the books are science books

Answers

Answer:

9,600/75,000, 16/125

Step-by-step explanation:

art+science=75000

9600

75000    =16/125

The part of all the books that are science books is 0.128 or 16/125.

Using this formula

Science books=Science books(Art books+Science books)

Where:

Science books=9600

Art books=65400

Let plug in the formula

Science books=9600/(65400+9600)

Science books=9600/75000

Science books=0.128 or 16/125

Inconclusion the part of all the books that are science books is 0.128 or 16/125.

A $40,000 car depreciates in value about 18% per year for the life of the car. Determine the value of the car after 7,8, and 9 years. What is the rate of decay?

Answers

Answer:

Value after:

7 years = $9971.42

8 years = $8176.56

9 years = $6704.78

Rate of decay = 18%

Step-by-step explanation:

A $40,000 car depreciates in value about 18% per year for the life of the car.

Determine the value of the car after 7,8, and 9 years. What is the rate of decay?

The formula for Depreciation is

FV = PV( 1 - r)^t

Where

FV = Future value

PV = Present value = $40,000

r = Depreciation rate = 18% = 0.18

t = time in years

a) After 7 years

$40,000 (1 - 0.18)⁷

= $9971.4188227

= $9971.42

b) After 8 years

$40,000 (1 - 0.18)⁸

= $8176.5634346

= $8176.56

c) After 9 years

$40,000 (1 - 0.18)⁹

= $6704.7820164

≈ $6704.78

= $9971.42

The Rate of decay = 18%

PLEASE HELP! The vertices of square LMNO are L(0, 2), M(2, 0), N(0,−2), and O(−2, 0). Which of the following shows that its diagonals are congruent perpendicular bisectors of each other? I ATTACHED THE IMAGES.

Answers

Answer:

The fourth one is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

To show the diagonals are congruent, calculate their lengths using the Distance Formula: d=(x2−x1)2+(y2−y1)2‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾√.

Find the length of LN.

Substitute 0 for x1, 2 for y1, 0 for x2 and −2 for y2.

LN=(0−0)2+(−2−2)2‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾√

=02+(−4)2‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾√

=8‾√

Find the length of MO.

Substitute 2 for x1, 0 for y1, −2 for x2 and 0 for y2.

MO=(−2−2)2+(0−0)2‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾√

=(−4)2+02‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾√

=8‾√

Since LN=MO, by the definition of congruent line segments, LN=MO.

To show the diagonals are perpendicular, calculate their slopes using the Slope Formula: m=y2−y1x2−x1.

Find the slope of LN.

Substitute 0 for x1, 2 for y1, 0 for x2 and −2 for y2.

m1=−2−20−0=−40⇒m1 cannot be defined.

Find the slope of MO.

Substitute 2 for x1, 0 for y1, −2 for x2 and 0 for y2.

m2=0−0−2−2

=0−4

=0

The slope of LN cannot be defined, this means that LN is parallel to y-axis. The slope of MO is equal to 0, this means that MO is parallel to x-axis. x and y axis are perpendicular, therefore LN⊥MO.

The figure shows the same square L M N O on a Cartesian plane as in the beginning of the task. Diagonal L N is perpendicular to diagonal M O.

To show the diagonals bisect each other, calculate their midpoints using the Midpoint Formula: P(x1+x22,y1+y22).

Find the midpoint of LN.

Substitute 0 for x1, 2 for y1, 0 for x2 and −2 for y2.

P1(0+02,2+(−2)2)=(0, 0)

Find the midpoint of MO.

Substitute 2 for x1, 0 for y1, −2 for x2 and 0 for y2.

P2(2+(−2)2,0+02)=(0, 0)

Both midpoints are the same point on the coordinate plane. This means the two diagonals intersect at their midpoints, or bisect each other.

The figure shows the same square L M N O on a Cartesian plane as in the beginning of the task. The diagonals intersect at point P. Segments L P, P N, M P, and P O are congruent.

Therefore, the diagonals are congruent perpendicular bisectors of each other.
