Answer:
85
Step-by-step explanation:
x+2x+5=125
3x+5=125
3x=120
x=40 in the morning
85 in the afternoon
The 50 is the error because cents are represented with decimals so it has to be .50
<span>The <u>correct answer</u> is:
$31.40.
Explanation<span>:
Since 6 oranges cost $3.00, we can divide to find the cost of one orange:
3.00/6 = $0.50. Each orange costs $0.50.
If ten oranges are bought, this would cost 10(0.50)=$5.00.
Each grapefruit costs $2.40; 11 of them would cost 11(2.40) = 26.40.
Together the total cost is $5+$26.40 = $31.40.</span></span>
Answer: a) -13/16
Step-by-step explanation: Start by setting equations equal and rearrange X^3 - x^2 + 1 = 0. Visual inspection of graph shows x between -1 and -1/2. Start with x = 3/4 plug in and calculate: just a little too small. Try going halfway towards -1: x =-7/8 Plug in and the answer is very far from 0. Go halfway back towards -3/4: -13/16 and the equality is very close.
