The shopkeeper spends 2x + 21 dollars on electricity

The amount the shopkeeper spends on electricity less than​ $100 is:

x < 39.5

<h3>What is a linear inequality?</h3>

Linear inequality explains the range of values that a variable represents.

Total amount spent by the shopkeeper = 7x + 19

Amount spent on rent = 5x - 2

Total amount spent = Amount spent on rent + Amount spent on electricity

(7x + 19)   =  (5x - 2 )  + Amount spent on electricity

Amount spent on electricity = (7x + 19) - (5x - 2)

Amount spent on electricity = 7x - 5x + 19 + 2

Amount spent on electricity = 2x + 21

For which​ value(s) of x is the amount the shopkeeper spends on electricity less than​ $100?

Amount spent on electricity  <  100

2x  +  21  <  100

2x  <  100  -  21

2x  <  79

x  <  79/2

x  <  39.5

Find the value of x. Write your answer in simplest form.
slega [8]

Answer:

x = (9/2)√2

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of leg x to the hypotenuse 9 is equal to the cosine of 45 degrees:

cos 45 degrees = x/9

To find the value of x, multiply both sides of this equation by 9, obtaining 9*cos 45 degrees, which comes out to x =9(1/√2).  Rationalizing the denominator, we get x = (9/2)√2

Translate to a system of equations:
omeli [17]

Answer:

m + n = 15

m - 3 = n

The numbers are 9 and 6

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question,

The sum of two numbers is fifteen; the first number is m and the second number is n. To translate to a system of equations, we can write that

m + n = 15 ..... (1)

Also, from the question,

One number is three less than the other,

Also, to translate to a system of equations, we can write that

m - 3 = n ...... (2)

If desired, we can determine m and n

From equation (1)

m + n = 15

Then,

m = 15 - n ...... (3)

Put the value of m in equation (3) into equation (2)

m - 3 = n

Then

15 - n - 3 = n

15 - 3 = n + n

12 = 2n

n = 12/2

∴ n = 6

For m, put the value of n into equation 3

m = 15 - n

m = 15 - 6

m = 9

∴ m = 9 and n = 6

Hence, the numbers are 9 and 6
