Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]x \: as \: the \: first \: piece \\ 2x \: as \: the \: second \: piece \\ 4(2x) = 8x \: as \: the \: third \: piece[/tex]

[tex]x + 2x + 8x = 440 \\ 11x = 440 \\ x = \frac{440}{11} \\ x = 40 \\ 2x = 2 \times 40 = 80 \\ 8x = 8 \times 40 = 320 [/tex]

Rita makes and sells necklaces. The materials to make each necklace cost $2. 75. Last week she made 8 necklaces and wants to make a total profit of $78. Using the equation 8 (x 2. 75) = 78, Rita determined that she needs to sell each necklace for $7 to make a total profit of $78. Which error did Rita make? Although she has the correct equation, she needs to sell each necklace for $12. 50. Although she has the correct solution, she should have used the equation 8 (x minus 2. 75) = 78. The equation should be 8 (x minus 2. 75) = 78, and she needs to sell each necklace for $12. 50. The equation should be StartFraction 1 over 8 EndFraction (x minus 2. 75) = 78, and she needs to sell each necklace for $75. 25.

Profit function gives the profit earned for given input. Thus, Rita has correct solution, that is, she needs to make 7 necklace to get $78 profit.

How to find the value of unknown variable in a linear equation?

It might not be always possible. But for simple cases, we can try using addition or subtraction or such operations in linear equations if there is single variable with single equation.

For the given case, the profit $78 for x necklace manufactured is

[tex]8(x + 2.75) = 78[/tex]

(remember that many times, when using letters or symbols, we hide multiplication and write two things which are multiplied, close to each other. As in [tex]2 \times (x + 3) = 2(x + 3)[/tex])

Solving this equation, we get:

[tex]8(x + 2.75) = 78\\\\\text{Dividing by 8 on both the sides}\\\\(x + 2.75) = \dfrac{78}{8} = 9.75\\\\\text{Subtracting 2.75 from both the sides}\\\\x = 9.75 - 2.75 = 7[/tex]

Rita has correct solution, that is, she needs to make 7 necklace to get $78 profit.

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula states that

S. I=P*R*T/100

R=S. I*100/P*T

Simple Interest= Amount - principal

Simple Interest = 130000 - 50000

Simple Interest = 80000

R= 80000*100/50000*20

R= 800000/100000

Step-by-step explanation:

-8/x - 11 = -2

First add 11 to both sides

-8/x - 11 + 11 = -2 + 11  simplifies to  -8/x = 9

Now multiply both side by x

( -8/x)  X ( x ) = ( 9 )  X ( x ) which simplifies to -8 = 9x

Divide each side by 9

-8/9 = (9x)/9 which simplifies to   -8/9 = x  or   x = - 8/9

[tex]\bold{\underline{ Given }}[/tex]

We have given two linear equations that is 2x - 3y = -6 and x + 3y = 12 .

[tex]\bold{\underline{ To \: Find }}[/tex]

We have to find the value of x and y by elimination method.

[tex]\bold{\underline{ Let's \: Begin }}[/tex]

[tex]\sf{ 2x - 3y = -6 ...eq(1)}[/tex]

[tex]\sf{ x + 3y = 12 ...eq(2)}[/tex]

Multiply eq( 2 ) by 2 :-

[tex]\sf{ 2( x + 3y = 12 )}[/tex]

[tex]\sf{ 2x + 6y = 24 }[/tex]

Subtract eq(1) from eq(2) :-

[tex]\sf{ 2x + 6y -( 2x - 3y) = 24 -(-6)}[/tex]

[tex]\sf{ 2x + 6y - 2x + 3y = 24 + 6 }[/tex]

[tex]\sf{ y = 30/9}[/tex]

[tex]\sf{\red{ y = 10/3}}[/tex]

Now, Subsitute the value of y in eq( 1 ):-

[tex]\sf{ 2x - 3(10/3) = -6 }[/tex]

[tex]\sf{ 2x - 10 = -6 }[/tex]

[tex]\sf{ 2x = -6 + 10}[/tex]

The graph is an illustration of an exponential function

The equation of the graph is: [tex]y = 25.5 * 0.6^x[/tex]

How to determine the equation of the graph

From the graph, we have the following ordered pairs

(x,y) = (0, 25.5), (1, 15.3) and (2, 9.18)

An exponential function is represented as:

[tex]y = ab^x[/tex]

When x = 0, we have:

[tex]25.5 = ab^0[/tex]

[tex]a = 25.5[/tex]

When x = 1, we have:

[tex]15.3 = ab^1[/tex]

[tex]15.3 = ab[/tex]

Substitute 25.5 for a

[tex]15.3 = 25.5b\\[/tex]

Solve for b

[tex]b = 0.6[/tex]

So, the exponential equation is:

[tex]y = 25.5 * 0.6^x[/tex]

Hence, the exponential equation of the graph is: [tex]y = 25.5 * 0.6^x[/tex]

From the given graph we can observe three ordered pairs which are  (0, 25.5), (1, 15.3) and (2, 9.18).

We have to find the function which best models the number of game consoles sold in millions x years since 2009.

This we can find by using exponential function.

y=abˣ

When x = 0, we have:

a=25.5

When x=1, then y should be 15.3

15.3=ab

Substitute 25.5 for a

15.3=25.5b

Divide both sides by 25.5:

b=0.6

You set assumptions for everyone, adults, and understudy around the classroom. Class criteria are expressed in an exciting atmosphere, constant in all situations, and very few.
