Lillian and Isabella went shopping for school supplies. Lillian found her favorite notebook on sale so she bought three of the exact same notebook. Isabella also wanted a notebook. She bought one of the same notebooks that Lillian bought. Both girls started shopping with the same amount of money. If Lillian spent all of her money and Isabella had $5 left, how much money did each girl have when she arrived at the store? please show your work/steps​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Each girl had $7.50 when they arrived.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to figure out what c (cost of each notebook) is first before we find out how much money each girl had. We also know they have the same money, so both sides are connected. The equation should be: 3x = x + 5.

3x = x + 5

First, subtract x from both sides. This cancels out the addition by x.

3x - x = 5

Now, subtract x from 3x. This equals 2x.

2x = 5

To cancel out the multiplication by 2, divide both sides by 2.

x = 5/2

Lastly, divide 5 by 2 to get 2.5.

x = 2.5

Substitute x for 2.5 in the earlier equation (3x = x + 5)

3(2.5) = 2.5 + 5

First, multiply 3 by 2.5 to get 7.5.

7.5 = 2.5 + 5

Add 2.5 to 5 to get 7.5.

7.5 = 7.5

Both sides are equal so we have our answer. So, both girls had $7.50 when they arrived at the store.

Find the equation of a line which has:

in slope-intercept form

Answers

Answer:

y = -2x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that slope-intercept form is y = mx + b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

In this case our slope is m = -2

and, line crosses y-axis at 5 which is b = 5

thus, y = -2x + 5

Imagine you measure the length of 15 cars, and then sum that length, in order to see how big a parking lot must be. You do this in two different ways. First, you use the same bad tape measure for each car so that your measurement is always 1 cm too long, or always too short, for all of the measurements. For your second attempt, you use a different bad tape measure for each car, so there is an uncertainty of plus or minus 1cm in each measurement. What is your estimate of the total error in the sum of all the car lengths in these two cases

Answers

Answer:

± 15 cm  

Step-by-step explanation:

In the first case, since the measurement is 1 cm too long or too short, the error is ± 1 cm.

In the second case, the uncertainty or error is also ± 1 cm.

Now, since there are 15 cars, and there is an error of ± 1 cm in each measurement, by the error formula the total error in the sum of both cases is 15 × ±1 cm = ± 15 cm  

So, the total error in both cases is ± 15 cm.

Answer:-43 + 9x = 0

Step-by-step explanation:Simplifying

9x + -43 = 0

Reorder the terms:

-43 + 9x = 0

Solving

-43 + 9x = 0

Solving for variable 'x'.

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

Add '43' to each side of the equation.

-43 + 43 + 9x = 0 + 43

Combine like terms: -43 + 43 = 0

0 + 9x = 0 + 43

9x = 0 + 43

Combine like terms: 0 + 43 = 43

9x = 43

Divide each side by '9'.

x = 4.777777778

x = 4.777777778
