Answer:
- sold 15 desks + chairs
- each desk is $120
- each chair is $50
- total amount is $960
- desk = d
- chairs = c
(a) i/ d + c = 15
ii/ 120d + 50c = 960
(b) d+c = 15 --------- (1)
120d + 50c = 960 --------(2)
from (1) d+c = 15
c = 15-d --------- (3)
substitute (3) into (2)
120d + 50c = 960
120d + 50(15-d) = 960
120d + 750 - 50d = 960
120d - 50d = 960 - 750
70d = 210
d = 210/70
d = 3
substitute d=3 into (3)
c = 15-d
c = 15-3
c = 12
thus, 3 desks and 12 chairs were sold

A train traveling at 37 M.P.H. had its speed increased by 22 ft. per sec.
If 88 ft./sec. = 60 M.P.H., then the train is now traveling at M.P.H.
Answer:
52 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
If 88 ft/sec = 60 mph
The 22 ft/ sec is 60/4 = 15 mph
This is so because 88/22 is 4
So we simply proceed to add this to the previous speed in mph
That gives a total of 15 + 37 = 52 mph

How can you use addition rules to solve subtraction problems with integers?
Answer:
Not entirely sure about what the question is asking, but explanation of what I think it is asking.
Step-by-step explanation:
There are three basic rules of addition.
Positive + Positive = Positive Ex: 1+1=2
Negative + Negative = Negative Ex: -2+-2=-4
Negative + Positive = Positive or Negative depending on the value.
Ex= 1+(-2)=(-1)
Ex=2+(-1)=1
So subtraction problems can be turned into addition problems.
For example:
4-2 is the same as 4+(-2).
Or -5-7 is the same as -5+(-7).
Hope this makes sense.

Is 9.78778777... a rational or irrational number?
The given decimal number 9.78778777... is non-terminating and non-recurring it is an irrational number.
The given decimal number is 9.78778777....
We need to check whether the given decimal number is a rational or irrational number.
What are rational and irrational numbers?Rational numbers: Rational numbers are in the form of p/q, where p and q can be any integer and q ≠ 0. This means that rational numbers include natural numbers, whole numbers, integers, fractions of integers, and decimals (terminating decimals and recurring decimals).
Irrational numbers: Irrational numbers are the set of real numbers that cannot be expressed in the form of a fraction, p/q where p and q are integers. The denominator q is not equal to zero (q ≠ 0). Also, the decimal expansion of an irrational number is neither terminating nor repeating.
So, from the definition of rational and irrational numbers, we can say the given decimal number 9.78778777... is irrational.
Since the given decimal number 9.78778777... is non-terminating and non-recurring it is an irrational number.

A ratio is another way of expressing a fraction. Hence, if one divides both sides by the same number, it will be the equivalent of one reducing a fraction, and it will still be equivalent to the original value. Hence, to reduce this ratio; divide both sides by 2

What is the value of x y and z
I’ll give brainliest
Answer:
x=2
length y = 4
angle Z = 45
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2 = 2x^2 - 4
put like terms on same sides, lets subtract x^2 to both sides
0 = x^2 - 4
add 4 to both sides
4 = x^2
square root of 4 = 2
x=2
since it is a square, we know all sides are the same length (proof also shown) so y is equal to the other side x^2
y = x^2
y = 4
Angle Z is 45 degrees, because a square has all right angles that are 90 degrees, but a diagonal evenly splits angle into two 45 degree parts.

Tyler went to the super market to buy food for a pantry. He has $36, and can carry up to 20pounds of food in his backpack. One package of pasta is the right amount to go with one jar of pasta sauce. What is the best number of packages of pasta and jar of pasta sauce to buy for the food pantry
This question is incomplete
Complete Question
Tyler went to the supermarket to buy food for a food pantry. He has $36, and can carry up to 20 pounds of food in his backpack. Pasta costs $1 for a 1-pound package. Pasta sauce costs $3 for a 1.5 pound jar. Let x = the number of packages of pasta and y = the number of jars of pasta sauce. One package of pasta is the right amount to go with one jar of pasta sauce. What is the best numbers of packages of pasta and jars of pasta sauce to buy for the food pantry? Explain your reasoning.
Answer:
Eight is the best numbers of packages of pasta and jars of pasta sauce to buy for the food pantry.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x = the number of packages of pasta
y = the number of jars of pasta sauce.
He has $36, and can carry up to 20 pounds of food in his backpack. Pasta costs $1 for a 1-pound package. Pasta sauce costs $3 for a 1.5 pound jar.
x + 1.5y ≤ 20....... Equation 1
x = 20 - 1.5y
x × $1 + y × $3 = $36
x + 3y ≤ 36..... Equation 2
20 - 1.5y + 3y = 36
-1.5y + 3y = 36 - 20
1.5y = 16
y = 16/1.5
y = 8
And x = 8
Therefore,
Eight is the best numbers of packages of pasta and jars of pasta sauce to buy for the food pantry.
