14.75x - 23=5.25x+45.2
14.75x-23-5.25x=5.25x+45.2-5.25x
14.75-5.25x=9.5
9.5x-23=45.2
9.5x-23+23=45.2+23
9.5x=68.2
9.5x/9.5=68.2/9.5
x=7.178947
Answer:
6 days
Step-by-step explanation:
patient takes eight doses daily; each dose consists of 3/4 oz.
8 x 3/4 = 6 oz daily
therefore, 36 oz bottle would last 6 days
Your question asks for an expression, so you would expect an answer in the form of an equation containing variables. This is because you have only 2 independent equations with 3 unknowns. That makes the system unsolvable.
Suppose v₁ is the mountaineer's velocity during the 1,000-foot trail. Then, v₂ is his speed for the 5,000-foot trail. The equation relating these two variables is:
v₂ = 2v₁ - 10 ---> equation 1
Then, you find the equation for the total number of hours he climbed. That would be the distance divided by their respective speed.
t = 1000/v₁ + 5000/v₂ ----> equation 2
Substituting equation 1 to equation 2,
t = 1000/v₁ + 5000/(2v₁ - 10)
t = 1000/v₁ + 5000/2(v₁-5)
t = 1,000/v₁ + 2,500/(v₁-5)
Another way of solving for the price when the item is on sale for 25% off is to subtract the rate from 100% and multiply it by C.
So for this problem, 100% - 25% = 75%.
The equivalent equation will be 0.75c.
Part 1 : A=1/2 ap P= 2A/a = 1000/10 = 100 ft.
Part 2 : (100 ft.)($7.95/ft) = $795
I'm not sure for part 3.
