Troy and Lisa were shopping for school supplies. Each purchased different quantities of the same notebook and thumb drive. Troy bought five notebooks and five thumb drives for $110. Lisa bought three notebooks and five thumb drives for $102. Find the cost of each notebook and each thumb drive.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

Notebooks cost $4

Thumb drives cost $18

Step-by-step explanation:

x=$ for notebooks

y=$ for thumb drives

5x + 5y = 110 ----> for Troy

3x + 5y = 102 ----> for Lisa

Use subtraction to find x.

(5x + 5y = 110)

-(3x + 5y = 102)

_____________

2x + 0y = 8

2x = 8

x=4

Sub 4 for x into 5x + 5y = 110

20 + 5y = 110

-20 -20

___________

5y = 90

y=18

Notebooks cost $4

Thumb drives cost $18

Answers

Answer:

- 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

7a + 2 = 3a + 1

subtract the 1 from both sides

7a + 1 = 3a

subtract 7a from both sides

1 = - 4a

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a and b are two corresponding sides of two similar figures, it follows that the ratio of their areas = a²/b².

We would use the above knowledge to solve the questions given as follows:

✔️The first pair similar of shapes:

Missing area = x cm²

Therefore,

x/9 = 8²/4²

x/9 = 64/16

x/9 = 4

Cross multiply

x = 4 × 9

x = 36 cm²

✔️The second pair similar of shapes:

Missing area = x cm²

Therefore,

x/240 = 8²/32²

x/240 = 64/1,024

Cross multiply

x*1,024 = 64*240

x*1,024 = 15,360

Divide both sides by 1,024

x = 15,360/1,024

x = 15 cm²

✔️The third pair similar of shapes:

Missing area = x cm²

Therefore,

x/40 = 3²/2²

x/40 = 9/4

Cross multiply

x*4 = 9*40

x*4 = 360

Divide both sides by 4

x = 360/4

x = 90 cm²

3+ 6 x{( 15 +9)=3-2}. Rajah got 49 while Obet got 39. Whose answer was correct? Prove your answer.asap i need it pls i need solution​

Answers

Answer:

  • 39, Obet is right

Step-by-step explanation:

  • I guess the = should be ÷ or else it doesn't make sense.

Simplify in steps considering the hierarchy of operations:

  • 3 + 6 × {(15 + 9) ÷ 3 - 2} =                  Parenthesis
  • 3 + 6 × {24 ÷ 3 - 2} =                         Parenthesis, division
  • 3 + 6 × {8 - 2} =                                 Parenthesis, subtraction
  • 3 + 6 × 6 =                                         Multiplication
  • 3 + 36 =                                             Addition
  • 39

In circle F what is the measure of arc CB?

17.5

Answers

The inscribed angle theorem says that the angle formed by two intersecting chords of a circle (the angle A between the chords AC and AB in this case) has half the measure of the central angle subtended by the arc containing those chords (arc CB in this case). So

m\angle BAC=\frac12m\angle BFC\implies m\angle BFC=2\cdot35^\circ=70^\circ
