Answer:
20
Step-by-step explanation:
You need to create two equations for each company and then set them equal to each other. The keywords base fee means you will pay this amount regardless, so this amount stays constant and it will be the constant in the equation. The other keyword is per. Per will link the variable with the coefficient.
The first equation for company M:
y = 12x + 60
The second equation for company N:
y = 9x + 120
Set the equations equal to each other.
9x + 120 = 12x + 60
Solve for x. I am going to subtract 9x from both sides first.
9x - 9x + 120 = 12x -9x +60
120 = 3x +60
Now, I will subtract 60 from both sides.
120 - 60 = 3x + 60 - 60
60 = 3x
Finally, I will divide both sides by 3
60/3 = 3x/3
x = 20
20 is how many guests it will take for the total cost to be the same.
Answer:
30 (I think you mistyped one of the answer choices)
Step-by-step explanation:
170+10=180
180÷6=30
No it isn’t correct, it’s the second one! Good luck!
-20 because after the the thermometer hits zero the more negative the temperature gets the colder it is
the equation is 2x-1 right so all you have to do is plug and go
2x-1
2x10-1
20-1
19
so your answer would be A)19
