This week at the farmer's market the price of oranges per pound has decreased by 20% compared to last week. If the price of oranges this week is $3.89, which equation would represent the price of oranges per pound last week, p?

Answer: 40

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the two numbers be a and b.

Therefore,

a - b = 3 ....... i

a + b = 13 ....... ii

From equation I, a = 3 + b

Put a = 3+b into equation ii

a + b = 13

3 + b + b = 13

3 + 2b = 13

2b = 13 - 3

2b = 10

b = 10/2

b = 5

Since a = 3 + b

a = 3 + 5

a = 8

The product of the numbers will be:

= 8 × 5

= 40

Base of a triangle is defined by the segment joining two vertices and height of a triangle is the vertical distance between the base and the third vertex.

Therefore, by following this property, triangles given in first column will match the triangles given in second column. (as figure attached)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

n=2p

p+5n=110, using n found above makes this become

p+5(2p)=110

p+10p=110

11p=110

p=10, since n=2p

n=2(10)

n=20

So there are 10 pennies and 20 nickels.

Answer:

x=4 b=-4/3

Step-by-step explanation:

for b you simplify both sides of the equation, and then you get -7b - 1 = 5B + 15 then you subtract 5 from both sides which gets you to -12b - 1 = 15 then you divide both sides by negative 12 which would be negative 12 b - -12 = 16-12 which gives you the answer of -4/3.

for x you would subtract 3x from both sides which gets you to 6x - 17 = 7 and then you would add 17 to both sides which would give you 6X = 24 and then you would divide both sides by 6 which would give you x = 4

Answer:

$3.08 for 7 stamps  

Step-by-step explanation:

The unit rate (price per stamp) is:

$2.20

-------------- = $0.44/stamp

5 stamps

Then 7 stamps would cost:

 $0.44          

------------ * 7 stamps = $3.08 for 7 stamps  

1 stamp    

Answer:

y=3x+20

Step-by-step explanation:

So first, I don't like fractions so I would multiply the whole equation by 4. This will make the equation 3x+y=20. Then you have to isolate the y to find the answer so you should subtract 3x from both sides. This will make the equation look like this y=-3x+20. Therefore, y=3x+20

Answer:

-90

Step-by-step explanation:

10+5×5×(-2)

10+25×(-2)

10+(-100)

10-100

-90

Answer:

- 40

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute x = 5, y = - 2 into the expression

10 + 5xy

= 10 + 5(5)(- 2)

= 10 - 50

= - 40

Answer:

b^2-4b+3=0

b²-3x-b+3=0

b(b-3)-1(b-3)=0

(b-3)(b-1)=0

either

b=3 or b=1

.

2n^2 + 7 = -4n + 5

2n²+4n+7-5=0

2n²+4n+2=0

2(n²+2n+1)=0

(n+1)²=0/2

:.n=-1

.

x - 3x^2 = 5+ 2x - x^2

0=5+ 2x - x^2-x +3x^2

0=5+x+2x²

2x²+x+5=0

comparing above equation with ax²+bx +c we get

a=2

b=1

c=5

x={-b±√(b²-4ac)}/2a ={-1±√(1²-4×2×5)}/2×1

={-1±√-39}/2

Answer:

Sam had 80 dollars in his pocket. He was feeling generous, so he handed out equal amount of money to each of his friends. After he handed out the money, he had 53 dollars left. How much did Sam give out to each one of his friends?

Step-by-step explanation:

In this real-world problem, the money he had at the beginning resembles the 80 in the equation. The -3x is the money he gives out to each of his friends. The 53 on the right-hand side is the money he has left after he gives the money away.

Answer:

257 students in the lower school

Step-by-step explanation:

you want to make the fractions have an equal denominator so make 1/3 5/15s and 2/5 to 6/15's, 5+6= 11/15s that leaves 4/15's for the lower part of the school

4 divided by 15 is 4.6 repeating so divide 1200 by 4.66 and boom

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If it is a Pythagorean Triple the hypotenuse and the legs of a right triangle will all be integer values where

c^2=a^2+b^2

In this case, this isn’t even a right triangle as

20^2+30^2=40^2

400+900=1600

1300!=1600

because 1300 does not equal 1600 this is not a Pythagorean Triple.

Answer:

[tex]x = 18^o[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertically opposite angle [tex]2x[/tex] must be equal to the original 36 degrees.

So,

[tex]2x = 36^o\\\implies x = \frac{36^o}{2}\\\implies x = 18^o[/tex]

Answer:

Change in water level over thr period Given is 11.16 mm

Step-by-step explanation:

The change in water level. In the part of the river observed will be ;

Water level. = The rate of change in water level per year * period

Rate of change in water level = 1.8mm /year

Number of years = 6.2

The change in water level is thus :

1.8 mm / year * 6.2 years

= (1.8 mm / year * 6.2

= 11.16 mm

Answer:

A triangle with angles measuring 55°, 60°, 65° degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Two obtuse angles means two angles over 90°

The sum of all angles in a triangle are 180°

90°+90° itself is 180°, so we cant have two angles greater than 90°

Two right angles means 90° and 90° which is 180°, not possible

55°+60°+65° = 180° so it is possible.

Answer:

(1) [tex]x = -4[/tex] (2) [tex]x = 7[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the first equation:

[tex]2(x + 3) = x - 4\\\implies x = 2(x + 3) + 4\\\implies x = 2x + 6 + 4\\\implies x = 2x + 4\\\implies -4 = 2x - x\\\implies x = -4[/tex]

From the second equation,

[tex]4(5x - 2) = 2(9x + 3)\\\implies 20x - 8 = 18x +6\\\implies 20x - 18x - 8 -6 = 0\\\implies 2x -14 = 0\\\implies 2x = 14\\\implies x = \frac{14}{2} = 7[/tex]

Answer:
