x= morning

y = afternoon

x + y = 10

x=10-y

5x + 6y =57

5(10-y) +6y =57

50-5y +6y =57

y=7

x=10-7 =3

 verification: 3*5 = 15, 7*6 = 42, 42 + 15 = 57


3 morning practices

Write three numbers for which you would use the hundreds place to compare to 35,712​
Leona [12618]

Answer:

  • 35,694
  • 35,981
  • 35,102

Step-by-step explanation:

If you compare numbers based on the hundreds digit, the digits to the left (thousands and ten-thousands) remain the same, while the hundreds digit differs.

This applies for any five-digit numbers structured like:

(3)(5)(not 7)(any digit)(any digit).

Digits to the right of the decimal point, as well as those in the tens and ones places, don't impact this comparison.

Jai Narayan sells two radio sets for 2288 each.
tester [12383]

Answer:

1%

Step-by-step explanation:

The selling price for each radio is $2288.

Total selling price is 2\times 2288=$4576.

Profit is 10%.

Loss is also 10%.

Cost price=\frac{S.P\times 100}{100+gain(in\;percent)}

Cost price=\frac{S.P\times 100}{100-loss(in\;percent)}

Utilizing the formula,

Cost price of the first radio is \frac{2288\times 100}{110}=$2080.

Cost price of the second radio is \frac{2288\times 100}{100-10}=$2542.2.

The combined cost price for both radios totals 2080+2542.2=$4622.2.

Total cost price exceeds total selling price.

Loss equals selling price minus cost price.

Loss is calculated as 4622.2-4576=$46.2.

Loss%=\frac{Loss}{C.P}\times 100

Loss percentage is \frac{46.2}{4622.2}\times 100=1%.

Thus, the loss is 1%.

Find the lateral area of the prism.<br><br> 120 sq. in.<br> 150 sq. in.<br> 720 sq. in.
Inessa [12570]

To determine the lateral area of the pentagonal prism illustrated in the figure, we begin the calculation.

According to the definition:

A_ {l} = P_ {b} * h

Where:

A_{l}: Represents the lateral area

P_ {b}: Refers to the perimeter of the base

h: Denotes the height

By substituting the known values:

A_ {l} = 20 \ in * 6 \ in\\A_ {l} = 120 \ in ^ 2

Result:

A_ {l} = 120 \ in ^ 2
