Today each cookie cost $0.75 less than the normal price. Right now if you buy 7 of them it will cost you $2.80. Write an equation to determine the normal price of each cookie.

Answers

x-0.75=0.40 will determine the normal price of each cookie.

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of 7 cookies = $2.80

Cost of one cookie = (2.80)/(7)\n

Cost of one cookie = $0.40

Let,

x be the normal price of cookie

As the price today is $0.75 less than normal price, therefore,

x-0.75=0.40

x-0.75=0.40 will determine the normal price of each cookie.

A trapezoid has an area of 24 square meters. The lengths of the bases of the trapezoid are 5 meters and 7 meters. What is the height of the trapezoid?4 meters
144 meters
2 meters
1 meter

Answers

Write it as an algebraic expression

24m^2 = (5m + 7m)/2 x h
24m^2 = 12m/2 x h
24m^2 = 6m x h

Divide both sides of the equation by 6m

24m^2 / 6m = 6m/6m x h
4m = h

The height is 4m

What two numbers added equal 40 but when subtracted equal 10? PLZ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HELPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP

Answers

Answer:

25 and 15

You can easily make a system of equations:

x + y = 40

x - y = 10

Solving for x on equation 2 gets x = 10 + y.

Plugging in this into the first equation, you get 10 + y + y = 40

Thus, 10 + 2y = 40

y = 15.

Plugging this back into either equation gets x = 25.

 B.1570.52

 C.157.052

 D.15.7052

Answers

560.9
*  2.8
ignore the decimals and multiply, as whole numbers.
5609 * 28 = 157052
now since there were two spots behind the decimal, squeeze the decimal in the number.
1,570.52 is the answer. which is B
560.9 x 2.8 = 1570.52

Here is the work below. Step 1. subtract the 2 and the 1. Step 2. since 5 is not enough to subtract by 9, we look at the next number next to the 5. We cannot borrow a zero, so we look to the left.We take one away from 9, make five into 15 and zero into 9. Step 3. subtract the rest.
