A company ships packages through the postal service. One week, the cost of shipping one
package was $6.70, and the company also purchased a number of stamps. This can be
modeled by the expression 6.70 + 0.50x. According to the model, what is the meaning of
0.50?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem, it says that the company not only shipped packages, but also bought a number of stamps. From the equation 6.70+0.50x, it's fairly easy to say that 6.70 is the packages,

What's not so easy is figuring out whether or not 0.50 is the stamps, or x is. However, there's an easy way to figure it out!

From this one, we would have to use "common sense" (not my words, someone elses). Using "common sense", we have to think, can someone buy 0.50 of a stamp?

Technically yes... But would someone buy 0.5 of a stamp? Not really.

So we can safetly assume that x is the "stamp", and 0.50 is the cost of the stamp.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

B = 285°

Step-by-step explanation:

What you would actually do is subtract 75° from 360° since the arrow indicates it's looking for the outside measure of the angle. Drawing a circle around would be 360° all the way around.

360° - 75° = 285°

Thus, 285° is the answer for B.

Solve the system of linear equations below, using substitution method.

8x+9y=368x+9y=36
3x+4y=163x+4y=16

Answers

Given:

The system of equations is

[tex]8x+9y=36[/tex]

[tex]3x+4y=16[/tex]

To find:

The solution of the given system of equations using the substituting method.

Solution:

We have,

[tex]8x+9y=36[/tex]           ...(i)

[tex]3x+4y=16[/tex]            ...(ii)

From (ii), we get

[tex]3x=16-4y[/tex]

[tex]x=\dfrac{16-4y}{3}[/tex]          ...(iii)

Putting this value in (i), we get

[tex]8\left(\dfrac{16-4y}{3}\right)+9y=36[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 3.

[tex]8(16-4y)+27y=108[/tex]

[tex]128-32y+27y=108[/tex]

[tex]-5y=108-128[/tex]

[tex]y=\dfrac{-20}{-5}[/tex]

[tex]y=4[/tex]

Putting y=4 in (iii), we get

[tex]x=\dfrac{16-4(4)}{3}[/tex]

[tex]x=\dfrac{16-16}{3}[/tex]

[tex]x=\dfrac{0}{3}[/tex]

[tex]x=0[/tex]

Therefore, the solution of given system of equations is (0,0).

find the sum of all numbers from 150 to 200 which are divisible by7​

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum is 1225

Solution : 

The numbers from 150 to 200 divisible by 7 are 154,161 ,168,…., 196

Here, a=154,d=7a=154,d=7 and tn=196tn=196

tn=a+(n−1)dtn=a+(n-1)d …(Formula )

∴196=154+(n−1)×7∴196=154+(n-1)×7 …(Substituting the values )

∴196−154=(n−1)×7∴196-154=(n-1)×7

∴427=n−1∴427=n-1 ∴n−1=6∴n-1=6 ∴n=7∴n=7

Now, we find the sum of 7 numbers.

Sn=n2[t1+tn]Sn=n2[t1+tn] ...(Formula )

=72[154+196)=72[154+196)

=72×350=72×350

=7×175=7×175

=1225

In an equilateral triangle, all the angles measure 60 degrees. Knowing this, we can set the following equations:

[tex]60=y-10\\60=x+5[/tex]

[tex]60=y-10[/tex]

Add 10 to both sides

[tex]60+10=y-10+10\\70=y[/tex]

[tex]60=x+5[/tex]

Subtract both sides by 5

[tex]60-5=x+5-5\\55=x[/tex]

I hope this helps!

Answer:

x is 55° & y is 70°.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is an equilateral triangle.

In an equilateral triangle all sides are 60°

So,

1) x+5 = 60

x = 55°.

2) y-10 = 60

y = 70°.

Answer: x is 55° & y is 70°.

Christi alters a skirt. She cuts 7 inches off the bottom of the skirt and then adds a 5-inch ruffle to the skirt's remaining bottom edge. Which expression best represents the final length of the skirt?

Answers

Answer: ( x -2 ) inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x  = length of skirt.

Given: Christi first cuts 7 inches off the bottom of the skirt and then adds a 5-inch ruffle to the skirt's remaining bottom edge.

Cutting of length will be represented by a negative integer.

The expression best represents the final length of the skirt = x-7+5 inches

= x -2 inches

Hence, the expression best represents the final length of the skirt = ( x -2 ) inches

Un objeto tiene una masa de 0.044Lb cuando se sumerge en una probeta que inicialmente contiene 0.350L de agua, el nivel de agua se eleva a 0.485L. ¿Cuál es la densidad (g/mL) del objeto?

Answers

Answer:

147.84 g/L

Step-by-step explanation:

Paso 1

El volumen del objeto se calcula como:

0.485L - 0.350L

= 0.135 litros

Paso 2

Convertimos la masa del objeto de libras a gramos

1 libra = 453.592 gramos

0.044 libras (lb) = x

Cruz multiplicar

x = 0.044 × 453.592 gramos

x = 19.958064 gramos

Paso 3

Densidad del objeto

= Masa (gramos) / Volumen (L)

= 19.958064 gramos / 0.135L

= 147.837511111 g / L

Aproximadamente = 147.84 g / L

Por lo tanto, la densidad (g / mL) del objeto es 147.84 g / L
