One-half x + three-fourths y = negative 5
(–8, –12)
(–8, 12)
(8, 12)
(8, –12)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

(8 - 12 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] x - [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] y = 8

[tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] x + [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] y = - 5

Multiply both equations through by 4 to clear the fractions

x - 2y = 32 → (1)

2x + 3y = - 20 → (2)

Multiplying (1) by - 2 and adding to (2) will eliminate the x- term

- 2x + 4y = - 64 → (3)

Add (2) and (3) term by term to eliminate x

0 + 7y = - 84

7y = - 84 ( divide both sides by 7 )

y = - 12

Substitute y = - 12 into either of the 2 equations and solve for x

Substituting into (1)

x - 2(- 12) = 32

x + 24 = 32 ( subtract 24 from both sides )

x = 8

solution is (8, - 12 )

John is buying new shoes. He finds the shoes he wants on sale for 30%, and the original price is $88. How much will he pay for the shoes?

Answers

Answer:

61.6 dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

So, lets go over what we know:

The shows orginally cost 88 dollars.

They are 30% less than that.

This basically means that the shoes will cost 70 percent of their orginal price.

We can basically find the new cost by multiplying the 88 dollars by the 70 percent.

Or, multiplying 88 by 0.7, which is the decimal form of 70%.

88*0.7=61.6

How did I get this?

Multiply 80 by 0.7:

7*8=56

We have 0.7 so it = 5.6

However, it's tens place is 80, not 8, so it will be = 56

It is the same thing in the ones place, however it is 8 not 80, so it will be 0.7*8

= 5.6

56+5.6=61.6

So 61.6 is our answer.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

$61.60

Step-by-step explanation:

the other answer is correct.

just to add some explanation about the % considerations.

we know $88 is 100%

in order to get any other % value, we need to divide the original value by 100 (that gives us 1%), and then multiply with the number of % we want to have - in our example 70, as the discount is 30% (so the remaining part is 70% of the original price).

so, in order to get 70% we actually have to do the above things and divide by 100 and multiply by 70.

70% = (100% / 100) × 70 = 100% × 70 / 100

70 / 100 = 0.7 (that is how answer 1 actually got that multiplication factor)

70% = 100% × 0.7

70% = $88 × 0.7 = $61.60

Need help with this question

Answers

Answer:

B.

Step-by-step explanation:

you know that (a+b+c)/d is the same as a/d + b/d + c/d.

and (a×b)/(c×d) is the same as (a/c)×(b/d).

and the powers of variables subtract when the variables are divided, and the powers add when the variables are multiplied.

14a⁸y³ / 7a⁴y

14/7 = 2

a⁸/a⁴ = a⁴

y³/y = y²

=> 2a⁴y² is the first part. that eliminates already all other answer options. only B can be right.

but let's practice and look at the second part :

-7a⁴y⁵ / 7a⁴y

-7/7 = -1

a⁴/a⁴ = 1

y⁵/y = y⁴

=> -y⁴ is the second part. B is still confirmed.

the third part :

28a¹²y² / 7a⁴y

28/7 = 4

a¹²/a⁴ = a⁸

y²/y = y

=> + 4a⁸y is the third part. B confirmed.

The equation |x-3| = 4 has what solutions?

Answers

Answer:

x-3=4

x=4+3

X=7

or

x-3=-4

x=-4+3

x=-1

-1 and 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Any equation within the | | notation is an absolute value, where the the value of the equation can only be positive.

So within the notation, we have two possibilities to the solution, a positive and negative value.

In other words, |4| = 4 and |-4| = 4

Hence, we only need to substitute x with an appropriate integer to satisfy the answer.

|x - 3| = 4

substitute x = 7

|7 - 3| = 4

|4| = 4

substitute x = -1

|-1 - 3| = 4

|-4| = 4

Therefore the solutions to x is x = 7 and x = -1.

A line has the equation 3x–4y–12=0 what is the slope of this line

Answers

Answer:

The slope of this line is 3/4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving this equation 3x–4y–12=0 for y puts the equation into the form

                                            y = mx + b, where m is the slope of the line.

One way of solving for 4y here is to add 4y to both sides, obtaining:

                                           3x - 12 = 4y

Dividing all three terms by 4 yields

                                              y = (3/4)x - 3

The slope of this line is 3/4.

Solution:

In a parallelogram, the consecutive interior angles are supplementary angles.

In parallelogram PQRS,

Answers

A I think is the answer

The measure of angle OCD from the given figure is 58°.

Given that, the points A, B, C and D lie on a circle Centre O.

What is the circle?

A circle is a two-dimensional figure formed by a set of points that are at a constant or at a fixed distance (radius) from a fixed point (center) on the plane. The fixed point is called the origin or center of the circle and the fixed distance of the points from the origin is called the radius.

Here, OC and OB are radius of a circle, then BOC is isosceles triangle

Now, ∠BOC+∠OBC+∠OCB=180°

50°+∠OBC+∠OBC=180°

⇒ 2∠OBC=130°

⇒ ∠OBC=65°

Here, ∠OCD=∠BCD-65°

⇒ x=123-65=58°

Hence, the measure of angle OCD from the given figure is 58°.

Amber works as a waitress at a restaurant. She earns an hourly wage and also earns tips. One night, she worked 6 hours and earned a total of $69.20, which included tips of $15.50. Explain how the equation 6w + 15.5 = 69.2 represents this situation. Then, calculate Amber’s hourly wage.

Answers

Answer:

Hey there!

The given equation helps us understand the relationship between Amber's tips earned and the money she earned through her hourly wage. This information will add up to equal a grand total of $69.20.

We know that Amber earns $15.50 in tips during her 6 hour shift. Therefore, this is not considered part of her wage. This would be one of the constants of our equation.

We also know that Amber earns a fixed hourly wage, but we don't know what this wage is. We need to find w.

[tex]6w+15.5=\$69.20[/tex]

Subtract 15.5 from both sides of the equation (and get rid of the currency symbol).

[tex]6w=69.20-15.5\\6w=53.7[/tex]

Divide both sides of the equation by 6.

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{6w}{6}=\frac{53.7}{6}\\\\w=8.95[/tex]

Therefore, Amber's hourly wage is $8.95.

Brian spends 3 5 of his wages on rent and 1 3 on food. If he makes £735 per week, how much money does he have left?

Answers

Answer :

Brian has $49 left.

Step by step explanation :

Step 1 : Find how much money Brian spends on rent and food.

First question we should be asking is what is 3/5 of 735?

Let's find that.

[tex]\frac{3}{5}[/tex] * [tex]\frac{735}{1}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{(3)(735)}{(5)(1)}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{2205}{5}[/tex]

= 441

We know Brian spends $441 on rent. Now we find how much he spends on food.

[tex]\frac{1}{3} * \frac{735}{1}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{(1)(735)}{(3)(1)}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{735}{3}[/tex]

= 245

Brian spends $245 on food.

Step 2 : Add what he spends on rent and food together.

$441 + $245 = $686

Step 3 : To find out how much money Brian has left, we subtract $686 from $735.

$735 - $686 = $49

Conclusion : Brian has $49 left.
