How can expressions be written and evaluated to solve for unknowns in the real world?
Writing expressions requires figuring out which quantity in a situation is unknown, and define a variable to represent that quantitiy.
We look for words in the problem that will help us out what kind of operation to use in a given situation.
Example:
Donna bought 5 chocolate bars, and then ate some. Write an expression to represent how many chocolate bars Donna has left.
If we let the variable c represent the number of chocolates Donna has eaten, then we can write the expression on how many bars Donna has left as: 5 - c
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula we need here is
which simplifies to
which simplifies to
36 + 6x = 40 + 5x and
x = 4
So DG = 5 + 4 + 3 which is 12
Answer:
.5 and .5, .75 and .25, ect
Hey there! I'm happy to help!
The only thing we have to do is solve our inequality to find the answer!
30+15x ≥ 90
We subtract 30 from both sides.
15x ≥ 60
Finally, we divide both sides by four.
x ≥ 4
Therefore, Deepak can only accept jobs that last 4 or more hours.
I hope that this helps! Have a wonderful day!
