Susan is looking to hire a cleaning company to clean her house every week. One cleaning company's cost can be calculated by the
kirill [66]

Answer:

<h3>A. 1 hour</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

If one cleaning company's cost can be calculated by the expression 75 + 50x, where x is the amount of hours they spend cleaning and another cleaning company's cost can be calculated using the expression 50 + 75x, then to calculate how long each company will have to clean to cost the same amount, we will equate both expression of the company cost and solve for x as shown;

On equating:

75 + 50x,  =  75x + 50

collect like terms'

50x-75x = 50-75

-25x = -25

divide both sides by -25

-25x/-25 = -25/-25

x = 1

hence the number of hours each company will have to clean to cost the same amount is 1 hour

which expressions are equivalent to the first one? I don't understand how to determine that so please explain. Thanks!​

Answer:

  (a) -(x+7)/y

  (b) (x+7)/-y

Step-by-step explanation:

There are several ways you can show expressions are equivalent. Perhaps the easiest and best is to put them in the same form. For an expression such as this, I prefer the form of answer (a), where the minus sign is factored out and the numerator and denominator have positive coefficients.

The given expression with -1 factored out is ...

  \dfrac{-x-7}{y}=\dfrac{1(x+7)}{y}=\boxed{-\dfrac{x+7}{y}} \quad\text{matches A}

Likewise, the expression of (b) with the minus sign factored out is ...

  \dfrac{x+7}{-y}=\boxed{-\dfrac{x+7}{y}}

On the other hand, simplifying expression (c) gives something different.

  \dfrac{-x-7}{-y}=\dfrac{-(x+7)}{-(y)}=\dfrac{x+7}{y} \qquad\text{opposite the given expression}

__

Another way you can write the expression is term-by-term with the terms in alpha-numeric sequence (so they're more easily compared).

  Given: (-x-7)/y = (-x/y) +(-7/y)

  (a) -(x+7)/y = (-x/y) +(-7/y)

  (b) (x+7)/(-y) = (-x/y) +(-7/y)

  (c) (-x-7)/(-y) = (x/y) +(7/y) . . . . not the same.

__

Of course, you need to know the use of the distributive property and the rules of signs.

  a(b+c) = ab +ac

  -a/b = a/(-b) = -(a/b)

  -a/(-b) = a/b

__

<u>Summary</u>: The given expression matches (a) and (b).

_____

<em>Additional comments</em>

Sometimes, when I'm really stuck trying to see if two expressions are equal, I subtract one from the other. If the difference is zero, then I know they are the same. Looking at (b), we could compute ...

  \left(\dfrac{-x-7}{y}\right)-\left(\dfrac{x+7}{-y}\right)=\dfrac{-y(-x-7)-y(x+7)}{-y^2}\\\\=\dfrac{xy+7y-xy-7y}{-y^2}=\dfrac{0}{-y^2}=0

Yet another way to check is to substitute numbers for the variables. It is a good idea to use (at least) one more set of numbers than there are variables, just to make sure you didn't accidentally find a solution where the expressions happen to be equal. We can use (x, y) = (1, 2), (2, 3), and (3, 5) for example.

The given expression evaluates to (-1-7)/2 = -4, (-2-7)/3 = -3, and (-3-7)/5 = -2.

(a) evaluates to -(1+7)/2 = -4, -(2+7)/3 = -3, -(3+7)/5 = -2, same as given

(b) evaluates to (1+7)/-2 = -4, (2+7)/-3 = -3, (3+7)/-5 = -2, same as given

(c) evaluates to (-1-7)/-2 = 4, different from given

Total Price: The sales tax rate is 8%. If the sales tax on a 10-speed bicycle is $12, what is the purchase price? The purchase p
stepladder [879]

Answer:

Purchase Price = $150 and Total Price = $162

Step-by-step explanation:

Purchase price = Tax Amount / Tax Percentage (as decimal)

Purchase Price = $12 / .08

Purchase Price = $150

Total Price = Purchase Price + Tax

Total Price = 150 + 12 = $162

I hope this helps!
