Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:12x=5x+14, 7x=14,
x=2
So, givens: total lesson cost of $260, total lessons taken are 6, and the first lesson costs 1.5 (or 3/2) as much as the additional lessons.
First thing to do is to figure out how many additional lessons are in that, which are 5.
Then you can make a 1 variable equation with the information you have. I’m using x as my variable.
260= 3/2x + 5x
Combine like terms.
260 = 13/2x
Divide both sides by 13/2 (treat it as a fraction, and if your calculator cannot make fractions, then decimal might help for this. 13/2=6.5)
X=40
I would say that the third one is false.
Answer:
4:1
Step-by-step explanation:
just divide by 2
Start with the general formula. The key word is difference. So the general formula is
D(x) = W(x) - R(x) Now substitute in the values for W(x) and R(x)
D(x) = 0.002x^3 - 0.01x^2 - (x^2 - 4x + 13) Be very careful about the sign in front of the brackets.
D(x) = 0.002x^3 - 0.01x^2 - x^2 + 4x - 13 Do you see what that minus sign did? It affected all 3 terms.
D(x) = 0.002x^3 - 1.01x^2 + 4x - 13 <em>Note: -0.01 - 1x^2 = - 1.01 x^2</em>
That gives you a clear cut answer
C<<<<< answer.
That sign is the worst part of the question. Make sure you understand what it did.
