YOU CAN DO Y=MX+B AND YOU WILL FIND YOUR ANSWER
Answer:
X=5
Step-by-step explanation:
3x-8=7
3x=15 (add 8 to both sides)
X=5 (divide by 3)
3-(2x-5)<-4(x+2)
8-2x<-8-4x
16<-2x
-8 > x. or equivalently x<-8
Company A
Income = 35,000 + 0.03x
Company B
Income = 25,000 + 0.05x
set them equal to see how much of sales Julia needs to make the same income at both companies.
30,000 + 0.03x = 25,000 + 0.05x
30,000 - 25,000 = 0.05x - 0.03x
5,000 = 0.02x
5,000/0.02 = x
250,000 = x
Company A has better base salary and so would pay better if less than 250,000 sales are made. Company B has bigger percent bonus and would be a better deal if more than 250,000 sales are made.
So it's the 2nd choice.
The numbers are "x" and "y";
Therefore, we can suggest this system of equations:
x+y=24 ⇒x=24-y
x/y=5
solve this problem by substitution method.
(24-y)/y=5
24-y=5y
-y-5y=-24
-6y=-24
y=-24/-6=4
x=24-y
x=24-4
x=20
Answer: the numer are: 20 and 4
