Add all of the sides together which then equal 76. So it would simplify to 14x+20=76. Then 14x=56. And 56/14=4. X=4

5 ( f + 4) = 4 ( f - 6)

Answers

f = -44

Hope this helps :)

Answer:

The answer is -44

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you use distributive property on each side.

5xf + 5x4 = 4xf-4x6

5f+20=4f-24

Then you subttract 5f to both sides of the equation.

5f+20=4f-24

-5f       -5f

20=-1f-24

Next, you add 24 to both sides of the equation.

 20=-1f-24

+24     +24

44=-1f

Finally, you divide -1f from each side of the equation.

44=-1f

/-1f   /-1f

Your final answer should be -44=f

or f = -44

Sam invested $14,000 in a stock that was expected to show an 18% increase in value. If all goes as expected, what will Mr. Bronson’s stock be worth after one year?

a

b

c
$16,520
d
$252,000
25p

Answers

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

we can convert 18 percent to .18 and then we can multiply 1.18 by 14000 to get our answer. if you don't do the extra 1 before the decimal you will get the 18 percent then have to add it to 14000 so adding the 1 before doesn't affect anything, it just makes it easier, without it it would be a two step problem (adding the .18 to 14,000).

f(10)=1.75r+9

Answers

Answer:

Simplifying

f(r) = 5 + 1.75r

Multiply f * r

fr = 5 + 1.75r

Solving

fr = 5 + 1.75r

Solving for variable 'f'.

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

Divide each side by 'r'.

f = 5r-1 + 1.75

Simplifying

f = 5r-1 + 1.75

Reorder the terms:

f = 1.75 + 5r-1

Step-by-step explanation:

tada i think

Let's solve for f.

f(10)=1.75r+9

Step 1: Divide both sides by 10

10f/10 =1.75r+9/10

Answer : f=0.175r+9/10

Two sides of a triangle have lengths of 7 and 15. Which inequality represents the possible lengths for the third side?

A) 8 < x < 7
B) 7 < x <15
C) 8 < x < 15
D) 8 < x <22

Answers

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

From the triangle inequality, we know that the two small sides must be greater than the largest side. Let's let x be the third side:

[tex]7+15>x[/tex]

However, 15 can also be our largest side. So:

[tex]7+x>15[/tex]

Let's solve for x for both inequalities.

First inequality:

[tex]7+15>x[/tex]

Add:

[tex]22>x[/tex]

Flip:

[tex]x<22[/tex]

Second inequality:

[tex]7+x>15[/tex]

Subtract 7 from both sides:

[tex]x>8[/tex]

So, we have the compound inequality:

[tex]x>8\text{ and } x<22[/tex]

Combine:

[tex]8<x<22[/tex]

Our answer is D

Julie is out shopping and finds a $96.00 basketball that was marked down by 25%.
How much was the item originally?

Answers

Its $120 is the original because 96 + %25 = 120

Answer:  The original price of the basketball was $128.

Step-by-step explanation:  The new price is 25% less than the original. That is the same as 25% from 100% is 75%.

So we can use that to calculate the original price:

96 = .75x . divide both sides by .75

96/.75 = x

128 = x  That is the original price.

Check:  $128 × .25 = $32, the amount of the discount.

$128 - 32 = $96  That is the price Julie paid.

The sale price of an item is $160 after a 20% discount. What was the original price of the item?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

The original price of the item is $200.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the original price be 'x'.

The sale price of an item is $160 after a 20% discount.

i.e. original price - 20% of original price = $160

x-20/100x=160

x-0.2x=160

0.8x=160

x=160/0.8

x=200

Therefore, the original price of the item is $200.

At the fair, Hunter bought 3 snacks and 10 ride tickets. Each ride ticket costs $1.50 less than a snack. If he spent a total of $24.00, what was the cost of each snack?

A) $4
B) $2
C) $5
D) $3

Answers

Answer:

d if this helped mark brainliest

Step-by-step explanation:

Each ride ticket is 1.50 less than each snack

t = s - 1.50

hunter spent a total of 24

if hunter bought 3 snacks and 10 ride tickets.

3s + 10t = 24

3s + 10(s - 1.50) = 24

3s + 10s - 15.00 = 24

13s = 39.00

s = 3

t = 1.50

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Let s represent the cost of snacks and r represent the cost of the ride tickets.  

We know that Hunter bought 3 snacks and 10 ride tickets. This cost in total $24. So:

[tex]3s+10r=24[/tex]

We know that each ride ticket cost $1.50 less than a snack. So, we can write that:

[tex]r=s-1.5[/tex]

We can find s using substitution. Substitute the above equation into the first equation. This yields:

[tex]3s+10(s-1.5)=24[/tex]

Distribute:

[tex]3s+10s-15=24[/tex]

Combine like terms:

[tex]13s-15=24[/tex]

Add 15 to both sides:

[tex]13s=39[/tex]

Divide both sides by 13:

[tex]s=3[/tex]

So, the cost of a snack is $3.

Our answer is D.

And we're done!
