The first step is to identify the order in which the equation must be solved, by following PEMDAS (you might know it as BEDMAS):
Parenthesis (or Brackets)
Exponents
Multiplication and Division
Addition and Subtraction
My advice would be to add parenthesis, following these rules, if you are not very good at finding them immediately by sight.
So:
![4 - 5 / 2 * (\frac{1}{10x}) = 1\\\\4 - [(5/2)*(\frac{1}{10x})]=1\\\\4-(2.5*\frac{1}{10x})=1\\\\4-\frac{2.5}{10x}-1=0\\3-\frac{x}{4}=0\\\frac{x}{4}=3\\x=3*4\\x=12](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=4%20-%205%20%2F%202%20%2A%20%28%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B10x%7D%29%20%20%3D%201%5C%5C%5C%5C4%20-%20%5B%285%2F2%29%2A%28%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B10x%7D%29%5D%3D1%5C%5C%5C%5C4-%282.5%2A%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B10x%7D%29%3D1%5C%5C%5C%5C4-%5Cfrac%7B2.5%7D%7B10x%7D-1%3D0%5C%5C3-%5Cfrac%7Bx%7D%7B4%7D%3D0%5C%5C%5Cfrac%7Bx%7D%7B4%7D%3D3%5C%5Cx%3D3%2A4%5C%5Cx%3D12)
We check our answer:

We are right!
So,
.
The answer is simply (1,3) just subtract 2 from 3 and 4 from 7.
Answer:
The function that can be used in the online shopping club about its monthly revenue is:

Step-by-step explanation:
First, we're gonna take into account the different values we have in the exercise:
- 10,000 members
- $7 per month for membership
- Loses of 400 members by each $1 monthly increase
How the variable
represents the price increase, we can do the formula below:
In this formula, we represent in the first part that by each 1 in the variable
, the total of members will be reduced in 400, in the second part, we mention that at the same time, the membership fee will be increased in the same value of
. Now we must simplify this function:
We operate the values:
Solve we can:
And organize:
At the end, how
represents the monthly revenue received by the club, we use that variable for our formula:
Answer: An adult ticket cost $12
A child ticket cost $5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the price for one adult ticket.
Let y represent the price for one child ticket.
A movie theater sold 4 adult tickets and 7 children's tickets for $83 on Friday. It means that
4x + 7y = 83 - - - - - - - - - - - -1
The next day the theater sold 5 adult tickets and 6 children tickets for $90. It means that
5x + 6y = 90 - - - - - - - - - - - -2
Multiplying equation 1 by 5 and equation 2 by 4, it becomes
20x + 35y = 415
20x + 24y = 360
Subtracting, it becomes
11y = 55
y = 55/11 = 5
Substituting y = 5 into equation 1, it becomes
4x + 7 × 5 = 83
4x + 35 = 83
4x = 83 - 35 = 48
x = 48/4 = 12
