5 mop and 7 broom cot a total of $855. 0. A mop cot $15. 00 more than a broom. Find the cot of:


a) 1 mop



b) 1 broom


pleae how working

Answers

Answer 1

the cost of a broom is $62.50, and the cost of a mop is x + 15 = 62.5 + 15 = $77.50.

Therefore,

a) 1 mop cost $77.50

b) 1 broom cost $62.50

What is the system of equations?

A system of equations is a set of one or more equations involving a number of variables. The solutions to systems of equations are the variable mappings such that all component equations are satisfied in other words, the locations at which all of these equations intersect.

To find the cost of a mop and a broom, we can set up a system of equations using the information given:

Let x be the cost of a broom

Let y be the cost of a mop (which is $15 more than a broom)

From the problem, we know that:

y = x + 15 (since a mop costs $15 more than a broom)

5x + 7y = 855 (since 5 mops and 7 brooms cost a total of $855)

We can substitute the first equation into the second equation:

5x + 7(x + 15) = 855

5x + 7x + 105 = 855

12x = 750

x = 62.5

Hence, the cost of a broom is $62.50, and the cost of a mop is x + 15 = 62.5 + 15 = $77.50.

Therefore,

a) 1 mop cost $77.50

b) 1 broom cost $62.50

If [tex]$\mathrm{x} \neq 3$[/tex], the expression [tex]$\frac{2 x^3+7 x^2-3 x-25}{x+3}$[/tex] is equivalent to [tex]$2 x^2+x-6-\frac{7}{x+3}$$[/tex].

What is meant by expression?

A mathematical expression is a phrase that includes at least two numbers or variables, at least one arithmetic operation, and the expression itself. Any one of the following mathematical operations can be used.

A mathematical sentence with variables, numbers, or both is known as an expression. Operation can also be a part of an expression, although an equal sign is never present in an operation. A mathematical expression that demonstrates the equality of two expressions is called an equation. There is a sign of equality in equations.

An expression in mathematics is made up of a mixture of variables, numbers, and functions (such as addition, subtraction, multiplication or division etc.) In some ways, phrases and expressions are comparable.

Let the equation be

[tex]$\frac{2 x^3+7 x^2-3 x-25}{x+3}[/tex]

simplifying the equation, we get

[tex]$& \text { Divide } \frac{2 x^3+7 x^2-3 x-25}{x+3}=2 x^2+\frac{x^2-3 x-25}{x+3} \\[/tex]

You and 3 friends go out for lunch and the total bill was $36. You decide to split the bill evenly. You also decide to leave a 12% tip on your part. How much are you responsible for paying?

Answers

When you and your 3 friends decide to split the bill of $36 evenly and you leaving a 12% tip on your part, you pay a total of $13.32.

Therefore the answer is 13.32 dollars.

When you and your 3 friends decide to split the bill evenly, each person is responsible for paying 1/4 of the total bill. The total bill is $36, so each person is responsible for paying

$36 / 4 = $9

You also decided to leave a 12% tip on your part, so you need to calculate 12% of $36. To do this, you can multiply $9 by 0.12

$36 × 0.12 = $4.32  

So, you are responsible for paying $9 + $4.32 = $13.32

So you are responsible for paying $13.32 in total.

5( x-3 ) + 2x =41
What is x?

Answers

Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

5 ( x - 3 ) + 2x = 41

5x - 15 + 2x = 41

5x + 2x - 15 = 41

7x - 15 = 41

7x = 41 + 15

7x = 56

x = 56 / 7

x = 8

Answer:

X=8

Step-by-step explanation:

Combine like terms: 5x + 2x = 7x

-15 + 7x = 41

Solving

-15 + 7x = 41

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '15' to each side of the equation.

-15 + 15 + 7x = 41 + 15

Combine like terms: -15 + 15 = 0

0 + 7x = 41 + 15

7x = 41 + 15

Combine like terms: 41 + 15 = 56

7x = 56

Divide each side by '7'.

x = 8

Calculate the perimeter of the parallelogram. Round to the nearest tenth, if necessary. Enter the perimeter, in units, using numbers only (decimal point is ok, if needed).

Answers

Answer:

28 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, we can see that the vertical sides are 9 units each.

To get the diagonal sides, we can turn the ends into right triangles, which we can then use with the Pythagorean Theorum.

To make the top side into a triangle, we would draw a horizontal line connecting points (-1, 3) and (3, 3). This creates a right angle which is essential when using the Pythagorean Theorum.

A^2 + B^2 = C^2

We can plug in values for the Pythagorean Theorum because we can see that going across horizontally from point (-1, 3) to (3, 3), there are 4 units in between the two points. This will be our A value. We will do the same but vertically from points (3, 6) to (3, 3). The 3 units between the two points will be our B value. Now, we can plug in our values into the Pythagorean Theorum to find side C, the hypotenuse.

4^2 + 3^2 = C^2

16 + 9 = C^2

25 = C^2

√25 = C

C = 5

Now that we know the diagonal value of the side, we also know the same diagonal value of the bottom side. When you add all four sides together,

9 + 5 + 9 + 5 = 28

you get 28, which is the perimeter of the parallelogram.

Answers

After solving the equation: the nearest cent, the interest earned is $467.

What is interest?

Interest is a mathematical concept used to describe the cost or gain associated with the use of money over a period of time. It is usually expressed as a percentage rate of the principal (the amount borrowed or invested). Interest can be earned or paid, depending on the situation.

Using the formula B=p(1+r)t, John's final balance after 1 year is B = 4069(1+0.12)1 = $4,536.28.
The interest earned in 1 year is the difference between the final balance and the starting amount, which is $4,536.28 - $4,069 = $467.28. To the nearest cent, the interest earned is $467.

The quadratic equation in vertex form is y = -(x - h)² + k

How to write the equation of parabola in vertex form

For a vertical parabola, the vertex form of the equation is written as

y = a(x - h)² + k    

where:

a = 1/4p

h and k are points of the vertex = v(h, k)

The vertex

v (h, k) = (1, 1)

h = 1

k = 1

y = a(x - 1)² + 1  

using point (0, 0)

0 = a(0 - 1)² + 1

The statement regarding the region of rejection for a 5% significance level would be true is the region of rejection lies between the z-scores -2 and 2.Option B is correct.

What is region of rejection?

A collection of values for the test statistic for which the null hypothesis is rejected constitutes a critical zone, sometimes referred to as the region of rejection. For example, if the observed test statistic is in the critical range, the null hypothesis is rejected and the alternative hypothesis is accepted.

Further the rejection zone is the area in which we have sufficient data to reject the null hypothesis if our test statistic falls within it. The rejection area, for the right-tailed test, for instance, is any value bigger than the critical value, or c 1 .

Therefore, the interval that causes the null hypothesis H 0 to be rejected in a hypothesis test is known as the region of rejection and is measured in the sampling distribution of the statistic under examination.
