Answer:
one gadget costs $15.80
Step-by-step explanation:
Let w = cost of one widget
Let g = cost of one gadget
Given:
- Five widgets and three gadgets cost $109. 90
⇒ 5w + 3g = 109.9
Given:
- One widget and four gadgets cost $75. 70
⇒ w + 4g = 75.7
Rewrite w + 4g = 75.7 to make w the subject:
⇒ w = 75.7 - 4g
Substitute into 5w + 3g = 109.9 and solve for g:
⇒ 5(75.7 - 4g) + 3g = 109.9
⇒ 378.5 - 20g + 3g = 109.9
⇒ 378.5 - 109.9 = 20g - 3g
⇒ 268.6 = 17g
⇒ g = 15.8
Therefore, one gadget costs $15.80
To find the cost of one widget, substitute the found value for g into
w = 75.7 - 4g and solve for w:
⇒ w = 75.7 - 4(15.8)
⇒ w = 75.7 - 63.2
⇒ w = 12.5
Therefore, one widget costs $12.50
Answer:
x = -1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Move 5 to the other side of the equation
3x = 4-5
3x = -1
x = -1/3
6x² + 2x - 20 = 0
3(2x² + x - 10) = 0
3[(2x² - 4x + 5x - 10)] = 0
3[2x(x - 2) + 5(x - 2)] = 0
3(2x + 5)(x - 2) = 0
3=0, 2x + 5 = 0, x - 2 = 0 (Note: 3=0 is false so disregard that equation)
x = , x = 2
Answer: x = {, 2}
Answer:
100.75 liters
Step-by-step explanation:
Data provided in the question:
t (min) 0 0.5 1 1.5 2 2.5 3
r (l/min) 44 40 37 34 30 27 23
Now,
left endpoint approximation
= 0.5 × ( 44 + 40 + 37 + 34 + 30 + 27 )
= 0.5 × 212
= 106
Right endpoint approximation
= 0.5 × ( 40 + 37 + 34 + 30 + 27 + 23 )
= 0.5 × 191
= 95.5
Therefore,
the average of the left- and right-endpoint approximations
= [ 106 + 95.5 ] ÷ 2
= 100.75 liters
