3. Three less than twice a number is 15. What is the number?
a.
b.
x= -6
x=6
c. x=-9
d. x=9

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x =9

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = be the number

2x -3 =15

Add 3 to each side

2x-3 +3 =15 +3

2x = 18

Divide each side by 2

2x/2 =18/2

x =9

Answer 2

Answer: [tex]x=-6[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Three (3) less than (-) twice (2) a number (x) is (=) 15

[tex]3-2x=15[/tex]

[tex]-2x=15-3\\-2x=12\\x=\frac{12}{-2}\\ x=-6[/tex]

A bicycle shop is selling $500.00 bikes. If the sales tax is 7%, what will the final cost of the bike be?

Answers

Answer:

The final cost of bike = $535.00

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of bikes =  $500.00

If the sales tax is 7%, the amount paid as tax will be 7% of the total selling price of bike;

7% of $500.00

= [tex]\frac{7}{100} * 500\\[/tex]

= $35

The final cost of bike = initial selling price + amount paid as tax

The final cost of bike  = $500.00 + $35.00

The final cost of bike = $535.00

2x-y<5
[tex]2x - y \leqslant 5[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Please be sure to include the directions when you post a question.  I will assume you want to graph this inequality 2x - y ≤ 5.  

2x - y = 5 is a linear function whose graph is that of a straight line.  Because of the ≤ sign, the solution set includes all points on this straight line PLUS all  points below it.

x - intercept:  Set y = 0 in 2x - y = 5 and solve the resulting equation for x:

2x - 0 = 5.  Then x = 5/2, and the x-intercept is (5/2, 0).

y-intercept:  Set x = 0 and solve for y:  2(0) - y = 5:  y = -5.  Then the y-intercept is (0, -5).  

Plot both points (5/2, 0) and (0, -5).  Draw a solid line through them.  Shade the area BELOW this line.

Paula invited some friends to dinner and she plans to make fajitas at the grocery store she spent $2.56 on red bell peppers and $1.92 on green bell pepper if both types of bell peppers cost $1.60 per pound how many total pounds of bell pepper does she buy

Answers

Answer: 2.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given Data:

Money spent by Paula for red bell peppers = $2.56

Money spent by Paula on green bell peppers = $1.92

Both pepper cost = $1.60/ pound

Therefore:

Total pounds of bell peppers bought by Paula

= cost of green bell pepper + red red bell pepper / price/pound

= $2.56 + $1.92 / $1.60

= $4.48 / $1.60

= 2.8 pounds

Maria lines up fabric squares in rows to make a quilt. She uses the same repeating pattern for all the rows. The rule is "Red, White, Blue, White, Floral." If there are 125 quilt squares in the quilt, how many floral quilt squares will Maria need? Enter your answer in the box.

Answers

Answer: 15

Step-by-step explanation:

the patern is

red

white

blue

white

floral.

So in each group of 5, we have one floral quilt square.

now, in 125 quilt squares, we want to find the number of groups of 5 that we can make with thos 125 quilt squares.

This is 125/5 = 15

So we have 15 groups of 5 quilt square.

And we know that in each of those groups, we have one floral quilt square.

So we have a total of 15*1 = 15 floral quilt squars.

Answer: 25

Step-by-step explanation: 125 quilt square in group of 5

125/5 = 25

Each group of 5 os 1 floral quilt so there are 25 floral quilts in total

Solve the 3x3 system shown below. Enter the values of x, y, and z.

x+2y-x=-3

2x-y+z=5

x-y+z=4

Answers

Answer:

x = 1

y = -1

z = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

You have the following system of equations:

[tex]x+2y-z=-3\ \ \ \ \ (1)\\\\2x-y+z=5\ \ \ \ \ \ (2)\\\\x-y+z=4\ \ \ \ \ (3)[/tex]

First, you can subtract euqation (3) to equation (1):

x + 2y - z = -3

-x +y  -z = - 4

0   3y  -2z = -7    (4)

Next, you can multiply equation (3) by 2 and subtract it to equation (2):

2[ x -y + z = 4]

-2x +y -z = -5

  0 -y + z= 3     (5)

You multiply equation (5) by 2 and sum (5) with (4):

2[ -y  + z = 3]

   3y  -2z= -7

  y  + 0 = -1

Then y = -1

Next, you replace y=-1 in (5) to obtain z:

-(-1) + z = 3

z = 2

Finally, you can replace z and y in the equation (3) to obtain x:

x - (-1) + (2) = 4

x = 1

Answer: x=1 y=-1 z=2
