We know that

• Lashonda purchased a prepaid phone card for $20.

,

• Long-distance calls cost 8 cents a minute.

,

• The remaining credit on her card is $17.12.

This problem can be expressed as

20-0.08x=17.12

Where <em>x</em> is the number of minutes.

We solve the equation for <em>x</em>

\begin{gathered} -0.08x=17.12-20 \\ -0.08x=-2.88 \end{gathered}

Then, we divide by -0.08 the equation

\begin{gathered} \frac{-0.08x}{-0.08}=\frac{-2.88}{-0.08} \\ x=36 \end{gathered}<h2>Therefore, Lashonda's call last 36 minutes.</h2>

What does 45 - 4x equal
xxTIMURxx [149]
Let y = 0 to find the x-intercept(s).

0 = 45 − 4x

*Then subtract 45 from both sides*
-45 = -4x

*Next, DIVIDE both sides by -4*

-45
—— = x
-4

*NEXT, realize that TWO NEGATIVES MAKE A POSITIVE *

45. 4
——— = x {FLIP} x=——-
4. 45.

Olegator [25]

Answer:

Mauricio's score for each event is 7.

Mauricio scored a total of 34.42 points in five gymnastic  events.

We can round off his score as 35.

To find Mauricio's score for each event, divide total score and no of events as follows :

n=\dfrac{35}{5}\\\\=7

a colleague needs to move a 500 pound object that's on a lever. the fulcrum is 6 inches from the object. If your colleague weigh
Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The easier way to figure this is by using the concept of torque in physics. If the torque of the man is greater than that experienced by the box, the lever will tilt in the man's favor (in other words, he will move down and the box will be lifted). Torque is found by multiplying the perpendicular force by the length of the lever arm. Because we want the man's torque to be greater than the box's torque, the inequality is:

\tau_{man}>\tau_{box} and

180r>500(.1524) That decimal is 6 inches in terms of meters.

180r > 76.2 so

r > .42 meters or `16.67 inches. The man has to sit at a distance greater than 16.67 inches in order for the box to be lifted by the lever.
