To determine the prices of a quart of strawberries and a quart of raspberries, use the two specified conditions to formulate equations. Since two unknown variables exist, two equations are necessary for the solution. Let x represent the cost of a quart of strawberries, while y represents the cost of a quart of raspberries. The first equation is 3x + 2y = 22, and the second is 5x + 4y = 39. By substituting one equation into the other after expressing one variable in terms of the other, we arrive at the values x = $3.5 and y = $5.75.

Ayesha works as a real estate agent. Her annual gross salary is $28,000. From this, she must pay 20% income tax on anything earn
Zina [12040]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Annual gross salary = $28000

Income tax = 20% applicable to earnings exceeding $15000

Thus, she has a taxable amount of $5000

Rent loan equals $140 monthly = $140 * 12= $1680 per year

Tax deductible annually would be 20% of $5000

20 / 100 * $5000 = $1000

Her total net income annually is equal to

Gross salary per annum - tax - loan =

($28000 - $1000 - $1680) = $25,320

Ayesha's take-home pay annually is $25,320.

A series contains 18 numbers and has a sum of 4,185. The last number of the series is 275. What is the first number?
Inessa [12215]
The formula for the sum of an arithmetic series is expressed as:
Sn=n/2(a1+an)
where:
n=total terms
a1=the initial term
an=the final term
given
n=18, an=275, Sn=4185
substituting these values into the equation results in:
4185=18/2(a1+275)
after simplification, we obtain:
4185=9(a1+275)
dividing by 9 yields:
465=a1+275
therefore
a1=465-275
a1=190

Conclusion: the first term is 190

PLEASE HELP ASAP!! 180x=2(30÷3)+17-5•11+2÷1 = ?
Inessa [12215]

Answer:

x = -4/45

Step-by-step breakdown:

180x=2(30÷3)+17-5•11+2÷1

We first need to simplify the right side.  The initial step involves the parentheses

180x=2(10)+17-5•11+2÷1

Next, we multiply and divide, proceeding from left to right after the equals sign.

180x=20+17-5•11+2÷1

180x=20+17-55+2÷1

180x=20+17-55+2

Next, we add and subtract, moving from left to right in relation to the equals sign.

180x=37-55+2

180x =-18+2

180x = -16

Then divide each side by 180

180x/180 = -16/180

x = -4/45

In a hospital, there are 250 registered nurses. 100 of the nurses are males. What is the ratio of male nurses to female nurses i
lawyer [12154]

Answer:

The male to female nurse ratio in simplest form is: 2:5

Step-by-step explanation:

Fact: A hospital has a total of 250 registered nurses.

Total number of male nurses is 100

Total number of female nurses is 250 - 100 = 150 [Total nurses minus number of male nurses]

To determine the ratio of male to female nurses in simplest terms;

A ratio indicates the relative proportions of two or more quantities.

Thus,

\frac{Number of male nurses}{Number of female nurses} = \frac{100}{250}

or

= \frac{100}{250} =\frac{10}{25} =\frac{2}{5} = 2:5

Consequently, the male to female nurses ratio in simplest form is; 2:5
