Ahab received a $146 Gift card for cafe. Ahab Used it to buy a cheesecake that cost $1.60 cents per pound. Ahab has $67.08 left on the gift card. How many pounds of cheesecake did Ahab buy? Round to the nearest hundredth.

49.32 lbs

Step-by-step explanation:

146(Beginning balance)- 67.08(remaining balance)= 78.92

78.92/1.60 (price per pound)= 49.325

49.325

Step-by-step explanation:

First the equation is $146= $1.60x + $67.08

This is because  the total amount is $146 so that is what it must come out to. then you have the amount per pound ($1.60) you will times that by how many pounds Ahab bought which we don't know yet so we represent it as x. then you add $67.08 to it because that is whats left.

to solve you will subtract 67.08 from 67.08 and 67.08 from 146. you do this on the right side of the equal sign to get the x alone. and you do the same on the left side of the equal sign because you have to keep the equation level. after that you divide 1.60x by 1.60, and what will now be 78.92 (146-67.08) by 1.60 to find what = x

i can answer this question sweetie!

step-by-step explanation:

-3

step-by-step explanation:

a drawing really does here:

so i draw the horizontal line y=2 and the vertical line x=-2 at this intersection i put b (this is where my right angle is going to be).   so point b is at (-2,2).   point a is 5 units long and is also on y=2 so this point has to be (3,2) or (-7,2) -doesn't matter i will go with (3,2).

now we know c is at (-2,y) we don't know the y yet bet we know that c is on x=-2.

we have the area of the triangle is .5bh=12.5

we know the base length is 5 (ab)

we have the height is (2-y) if you look at your

plug in

.5(5)(2-y)=12.5

solve for y to get the y-coordinate for c

2.5(2-y)=12.5

divide both sides by 2.5 giving:

2-y=5

now subtract 2 on both sides

-y=3

y=-3
