Suzy went to a department store and brought 3 pairs of shoes. The first pair of shoes were not too expensive, but the second pair was twice as much as the first pair. The third pair of shoes were $5 more than the first pair. She paid with a $100 bill and got $3 in change. How much did each pair of shoes cost?
Answer:
Cost of first pair shoe = a = $23
Cost of second pair shoe = b = $46
Cost of third pair shoe = c = $28
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
Cost of first pair shoe = a
Cost of second pair shoe = b
Cost of third pair shoe = c
The first pair of shoes were not too expensive, but the second pair was twice as much as the first pair.
b = 2a......... Equation 1
The third pair of shoes were $5 more than the first pair.
c = a + 5...... Equation 2
She paid with a $100 bill and got $3 in change.
a + b + c = $100 - $3
a + b + c = 97........... Equation 3
Substitute 2a for b and a + 5 for c in Equation 3
a + 2a + a + 5 = 97
4a = 97 - 5
4a = 92
a = 92/4
a =$23
The cost of the first pair of shoe = $23
b = 2a......... Equation 1
b = 2($23)
b = $46
The cost of the second pair of shoe = $46
c = a + 5...... Equation 2
c = $23 +$5
c = $28
The cost of the third pair of shoe = $28
Find a counterexample to show that the given conjecture is false:
The sum of two positive even integers is always an odd integer.
Answer:
20 + 16 = 36
Step-by-step explanation:
The conjecture: "The sum of two positive even integers is always an odd integer" can be easily be proven false with a counterexample.
Pick A=20 and B=16, both are positive even integers.
The sum of both A + B = 36 is an even integer. This is a counterexample because being even is the contrary of being odd.
Counterexample: 20 + 16 = 36
In fact, the conjecture is always false, since there cannot be found any pair of positive integers whose sum is odd.
Other possible counterexamples are:
10 + 8, 700 + 40, 12 + 14, etc.
What is the property demonstrated by the equation (2a)^4 = 16a^4
(^4 indicates an exponent (which is 4))
Answer:
Ues the site called quetext is helps
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiplying the sum of two or more addends by a number produces the same result as when each addend is multiplied individually by the number and the products are added together. (2a)^4 = 16a^4 is distributive property.
What is Distributive property?Multiplying the sum of two or more addends by a number produces the same result as when each addend is multiplied individually by the number and the products are added together.
If an exponent acts on single term in parentheses, we can distribute the exponent over the term.
(2a)^4
=2^4.a^4
The value of 2^4 is 16, because 2^4=2*2*2*2=16.
=16a^4.
Therefore by distributive property of exponents (2a)^4 = 16a^4.

O 3
O-29
Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
Plug in -4 as x in the function:
f(x) = x² + 2x - 5
f(-4) = (-4)² + 2(-4) - 5
Simplify:
f(-4) = 16 - 8 - 5
f(-4) = 3
So, f(-4) = 3

Vinnie is 1/2 as old as Julie Julie is 24 how old is vinnie
Answer:
Vinnie is 12.
Step-by-step explanation:
24 divided by 2 is 12
A fraction is the representation of a decimal number so the fraction of 1/2 of 24 is 12 thus its age of Vinnie is 12 years.
What is a fraction?In such a fraction, the value that appears above the horizontal line is referred to as the numerator.
In another word, the fraction is the division of the two numbers, but the division is not wholly complete.
For example, 1/3 is a fraction and in decimal, it is 0.333. Here 1 will be called a numerator while 3 will be the denominator.
Given that,
Age of Julie = 24 years
Age of Vinnie = 1/2 of 24
The 1/2 fraction of 24 will be
⇒ 24/2 = 12 years.
Hence "The fraction of 1/2 of 24 is 12 thus the age of Vinnie is 12 years".

Answer:
3.75 or 3[tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The first thing we can find is the scale factor of the two triangles. You can see that the corresponding sides AB and A'B' are 2 and 8 respectively, and since the two triangles are similar, you can say that triangle ABC is shrunk by a factor of 2/8 or 1/4.
Next, we need to figure out what side B'C' is and we can do this using the Pythagorean theorem [tex]a^{2}[/tex]+[tex]b^{2}[/tex] = [tex]c^{2}[/tex]. Using this, we know that [tex]8^{2}[/tex]+
Now, since ABC is shrunk by 1/4 and the corresponding side of BC is equal to 15, we need to multiply 15 by 1/4 and you would find that BC is 3.75 or 3[tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex].

2. Tamara has to go on a business trip. Including taxes, her round trip airfare is $400 and her room costs $150 per night. The cab fare from the airport to the hotel is $40. If Tamara stays for two nights, how much does the trip cost, not including the cost of food?
Answer:1180,740
Step-by-step explanation:
2 night, so (400x2)+(150x2)+(40x2)=800+300+80=1180 this is cost to go and come back.
400+300+40=740 this is the cost for only going there and not coming back.

The items Pedro has selected at his local hardware store have a total cost of $130 before tax. If the sales tax is 8.25%, which is closest to the amount of sales tax Pedro can
expect to pay?
Answer: $10.7
Step-by-step explanation:
The following can be deduced from the question:
Total cost of items = $130
Percentage of Sales tax = 8.25%
Sales tax = Sales tax percent × Cost
Sales tax = 8.25% × $130
Sales tax = 8.25/100 × $130
= 0.0825 × $130
= $10.725
= $10.7

Jordan has 3 blue shirts, 4 red shirts and 6 orange shirts. She chooses a shirt for Monday and places it in her suitcase. Then, she chooses a shirt for Tuesday. What is the probability that she choose a red shirt for Monday and an orange shirt for Tuesday?
Answer:
30% on Monday 46% on Tuesday
Step-by-step explanation:
Well you have 3 blue shirts 4 red shirts and 6 orange shirts so what you have to do is add all them together to make it a fraction which you would do 3+4+6 which is 13/13 so the probability of her wearing a red shirt on Monday would be 4/13 since there are 4 red shirts and 13 in total so we make 4/13 as a fraction which would give us 30% chance she would choose a red shirt on Monday and for Tuesday we do the same thing but instead we use orange shirts so which is 6/13 which would give her a percentage of 46% on Tuesday it's more closer to half than the red shirts because 6 pretty much half of 13 but since 13 is a odd number it isn't half because half of 13 is 6.5
In cross country, the team score is determined by the place each individual runner finishes. (For example, 1st place is one point, 16th place is 16 points, etc.) In their latest meet, the boys cross-country team scored 55 points. If there were five runners on the team and each runner finished one after another, what places did they come on? Explain your reasoning and support your answer. *
Answer:
Kindly check explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that there were five rummers in the team;
Each runner finished one after the other
Total. Points scored =. 55
Let the positions of each runner be :
1sr runner = p
2nd runner =.p + 1
3rd runner =.p + 2
4th runner =.p + 3
5th runner =.p + 4
(1st + 2nd + 3rd + 4th +. 5th) runner = 55
(p + p + 1 + p + 2 + p + 3 + p + 4) = 55
5p + 10 = 55
5p = 55 - 10
5p = 45
p = 9
Hence,
1st runner = 9th
2nd runner = 9 + 1 = 10th
3rd runner = 9 + 2 = 11th
4th runner = 9 + 3 = 12th
5th runner = 9+ 4 = 13th

Find x. Give reasons to justify your solution. b Lines AB and CD are straight lines.
Answer:
x = 28
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that lines AB and CD are straight lines that intersects at O, it follows that the pair of opposite vertical angles formed are congruent.
Thus,
<AOD = <BOC
<AOD = 152°
<BOC = 3x + x + (x + 12) (angle addition postulate)
<BOC = 5x + 12
Since <AOD = <BOC, therefore,
152° = 5x + 12 (substitution)
152 - 12 = 5x (subtraction property of equality)
140 = 5x
140/5 = x (division property of equality)
28 = x
x = 28

What is the slope of y=-1/2x+3
Answer:
slope = - [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
y = - [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] x + 3 ← is in slope- intercept form
with slope m = - [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
Given : A linear equation in two variables is given to us , which is y = -½ + 3 .
To Find : The slope of the line .
Solution : The given equation to us is y = -½ + 3 . This equation is also similar to form of a equation in slope - intercept form , which is ,
[tex]\large\boxed{\red{\bf y = mx + c }}[/tex]
Where , m is the slope of the line and c is the y - intercept of the line .
Now , on comparing the equation with the standard form , we have :
m ( slope ) = -½ .c ( y - intercept ) = 3 .Hence the slope of the line is -½.
