Jake spent a total of 70 cents.
b = black-and-white = 8 cents
c = color = 15 cents
70 = 8b + 15c
he made a total of 7 copies
b + c = 7
system of equation:
70 = 8b + 15c
b + c = 7
--------------------------
b + c = 7
b + c (-c) = 7 (-c)
b = 7 - c
plug in 7 - c for b
70 = 8(7 - c) + 15c
Distribute the 8 to both 7 and - c (distributive property)
70 = 56 - 8c + 15c
Simplify like terms
70 = 56 - 8c + 15c
70 = 56 + 7c
Isolate the c, do the opposite of PEMDAS: Subtract 56 from both sides
70 (-56) = 56 (-56) + 7c
14 = 7c
divide 7 from both sides to isolate the c
14 = 7c
14/7 = 7c/7
c = 14/7
c = 2
c = 2
---------------
Now that you know what c equals (c = 2), plug in 2 for c in one of the equations.
b + c = 7
c = 2
<em>b + (2) = 7
</em><em />Find b by isolating it. subtract 2 from both sides
b + 2 = 7
b + 2 (-2) = 7 (-2)
b = 7 - 2
b = 5
Jake made 5 black-and-white copies, and 2 color copies
hope this helps
Answer:
V(t) = 25000 * (0.815)^t
The depreciation from year 3 to year 4 was $2503.71
Step-by-step explanation:
We can model V(t) as an exponencial function:
V(t) = Vo * (1+r)^t
Where Vo is the inicial value of the car, r is the depreciation rate and t is the amount of years.
We have that Vo = 25000, r = -18.5% = -0.185, so:
V(t) = 25000 * (1-0.185)^t
V(t) = 25000 * (0.815)^t
In year 3, we have:
V(3) = 25000 * (0.815)^3 = 13533.58
In year 4, we have:
V(4) = 25000 * (0.815)^4 = 11029.87
The depreciation from year 3 to year 4 was:
V(3) - V(4) = 13533.58 - 11029.87 = $2503.71
Answer:
$24.75
Step-by-step explanation:
22/8= $2.75 per gallon
2.75*9= 24.75
Factor the left side:-
x (19 + r) = -37 + w
x = ( -37 + w) / (19 + r) Answer
.50 or 1/2
.10 or 1/10
.75 or 3/4
