Answer:

Kevin is going to be able to have enough money for the concert the fastest

Philip needs at least 4 weeks

Kevin needs at least 3 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Philip</u>

  • $8.75/hour * 6 hours/weekend * 1 weekend/week = $52.5/week
  • $45 saved

Let's call x to the number of weeks Philip needs to reach $225.

52.5*x + 45 = 225

52.5*x = 225 - 45

x = 180/52.5

x = 3.43

He needs at least 4 weeks

<u>Kevin</u>

  • 3 hours/day * $7.5/hour *3 days/week = $67.5/week
  • $30 saved

Let's call y to the number of weeks Kevin needs to reach $225.

67.5*y + 30 = 225

67.5*y = 225 - 30

y = 195/67.5

y = 2.9

He needs at least 3 weeks

Maymona book club is ordering new novels, She knows that the total cost of 6 books is $90, and 10 books cost $150. Write an equa
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

Y=15x

Step-by-step explanation:

<h2>Okay so let's approach this problem!</h2><h2 />

X is books and Y is total cost

Let's find the slope!

Y2-Y1/ X2-X1

Just replace

\frac{150 - 90}{10 - 6}

\frac{60}{4}  = 15

The slope is 15

y = 15x + b

Now replace x and y with coordinates and solve

150 = 15(10) + b \\ 150 = 150 + b \\  - 150 \\ 0 = b

The final equation:

y = 15x

That's it! If you have any questions please ask! Brainliest Appreciated.

How do you solve -1x+20 is greater than -7+35
rusak2 [61]

\huge\fbox{Hello~there!}

Let's solve this inequality!

\rm{-x+20>-7+35

What can we do to solve this inequality? Well, first of all, we can add -7 and 35:

\rm{-x+20>28

Now, move 20 to the right, using the opposite operation:

\rm{-x>28-20

Subtract:

\rm{-x>8

Divide both sides by -1 to isolate x:

\rm{x (Answer)

_____________

<em>Additional comment</em>

When we divide both sides of an inequality by a negative number, we flip the inequality sign.

____________

I hope you find it helpful.

Feel free to ask if you have any questions.
