Three students that share a townhouse find that their electric bill for October is $2.65 less than the September bill. The total of both bills is $174.65, and eachbill is split evenly among the roommates. How much did each owe in September?
SOLUTION
Let the electric bill for September be x.
October's bill is $2.65 less than the September bill
This means that October's bill = x - 2.65
September + october bill = $174.65
That means that x + x - 2.65 = 174.65
Now let's find x which is september's bill
[tex]\begin{gathered} x+x-2.65=174.65 \\ 2x-2.65=174.65 \\ 2x=174.65+2.65 \\ 2x=177.3 \\ x=\frac{177.3}{2} \\ \\ x=88.65 \end{gathered}[/tex]So September's bill is $88.65, now each student pays
[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{88.65}{3} \\ \\ =\text{ 29.55} \end{gathered}[/tex]So each student owe $29.55 for the month of September
Lauren was going to by her mom her favorite perfume for Christmas at a price of $31.95. She waited until it got too close to Christmas and the price went up to $41.49. What was the percent of increase in the price?
The percent of increase in the cost of the perfume is 29.86%
What is percentage and how can it be calculated?
A percentage is a figure or ratio that can be stated as a fraction of 100 in mathematics. If we need to determine a percentage of a number, multiply it by 100 and divide it by the total. So, a part per hundred is what the percentage refers to. Percent signifies for every 100. The sign "%" is used to denote it. No dimension exists for percentages. Thus, it is referred to as a dimensionless number.
Mathematically,
Percent of increase = [(Final value - Initial value)/(Initial value)]×100
Given, the final value of the perfume at purchase = $41.49
Also, the initial value of the perfume as assessed = $31.95
Therefore using the formula established in the literature above,
Percentage increase = [(41.49 - 31.95)/31.95]×100 = 29.86%
Thus, the percent of increase in the cost of the perfume is 29.86%

Mr. Bensoua buys 3 bags of Flaming Hot Cheetos for every 4 bags of Takis. He buys a total of 14 bags of chips. If the Flamin Hot Cheetos cost $2 per bag and the Takis cost $2.50 per bag, how much did Mr. Bensoua spend on all of the chips
Statement Problem: Mr. Bensoua buys 3 bags of Flaming Hot Cheetos for every 4 bags of Takis. He buys a total of 14 bags of chips. If the Flamin Hot Cheetos cost $2 per bag and the Takis cost $2.50 per bag, how much did Mr. Bensoua spend on all of the chips?
Solution:
When Mr. Bensoua buys 4 bags of Takis, he buys 3 bags of Flaming Hot Cheetos.
When he buys another 4 bags of Takis, he buys 3 bags of Flaming Hot Cheetos.
At the end, he buys 8 bags of Takis and 6 bags of Flaming Hot Cheetos and that makes it a total of 14 bags of chips.
The cost of Takis per bag is $2.50, the cost of 8 bags of Takis is;
[tex]\text{2}.50\times8=20[/tex]The cost of Flaming Hot Cheetos per bag is $2., the cost of 6 bags of Takis is;
[tex]2\times6=12[/tex]Hence, the total amount Mr. Bensoua spends is;
[tex]20+12=32[/tex]CORRECT ANSWER: $32
The function C(x) =17.5x-10 represents the cost (in dollars) of buying x tickets to the orchestra with a $10 coupon.
a) It represents the discount of $10 coupon
b) It repesetns the cost of each ticket
c) Five tickets cost is:
C(5) = 17.5(5) - 10 = 87.5 - 10 = 77.5
Five tickets cost $77.50
d) 130 = 17.5x - 10
130 + 10 = 17.5x
140 = 17.5x
x = 140/17.5 =8
x = 8
With $130 you can buy 8 tickets

Find the measures of two complementary angles if one angle is 18° more than two times
the other angle.
The smaller angle measures
...
Complementary angles - The smaller angle is 24 degrees in size.
what are complementary angles?
Angles that add up to a precise 90 degree angle are said to be complementary. For instance, 30 degrees and 60 degrees are complementary angles.
Let x equal the first angle's measurement for the sake of explanation.
Let y be the size of the first angle's complement.
One angle, which we'll refer to as y, is 18 more than twice as large as another, x.
y = 18 + 2x
Complementary angles add up to 90 degrees.
x + 18 + 2x = 90
By substituting for y,
we get x + 18 + 2 x = 90.
Putting like phrases together and taking 18 off on both sides...
3x + 18 = 90
- 18 -18
3x = 72
By dividing both sides by 3, you get
3x/3 = 72/3
24 degrees is the angle between the two that is smaller. and the other angle would be,
y= 18+2x
=18+2(24)= 66 degrees.

yesenia knits 21 centimeters of a scarf every week. what Is yesenia's unit rate (cm per day)for her knitting?After 18 days of knitting, how many centimeters long will the scarf be?write an equation and solve.
Answer:
3cm per day
54cm long
Explanation
Let x be yesenia's unit rate
If yesenia knits 21 centimeters of a scarf every week, then;
21 cm = 1 week (7 days)
To determine the amount for her knitting in a day, we can write;
x = 1 day
Divide both expressions
21/x = 7/1
Cross multiply
7 * x = 21
7x = 21
x = 21/7
x = 3
hence yesenia's unit rate is 3cm per day
- Recall that;
21 cm = 1 week (7 days)
Let y be the length of the scaf sfter 18 days, To get the length of the scarf, we can write;
y = 18days
Divide both resulting expressions;
21/y = 7/18
7y = 21 * 18
y = 3 * 18
y = 54cm
Hence the scarf will be 54cm longy

Given that 64 teams qualify for a basketball tournament. After each round, half of the teams are eliminated.
Because it is an exponential function, f(x) will reach 0 as x increases, allowing us to construct the following table of values:
