Answer:
I would change 2x+4y=24 into x=12–2y
To do that, divide both sides by 2 and then subtract 2y on each side.
After that, substitute for x. 3x+2y=19 would become 3(12–2y)+2y=19.
Then solve.
3(12–2y)+2y=19
36–6y+2y=19
-4y+36=19
-4y=-17
y=4.25
Then, substitute y in either equation.
Either this:
3x+2y=19
3x+2(4.25)=19
3x+8.5=19
3x=10.5
x=3.5
Or:
2x+4y=24
2x+4(4.25)=24
2x+17=24
2x=7
x=3.5
Or you could solve it in the equation you created in the beginning:
x=12–2y
x=12–2(4.25)
x=12–8.5
x=3.5
The coordinates where the lines intercept are (3.5, 4.25).
Sorry for the long answer!
Arrange in slope intercept form.....
2y = 2x -4
y = x - 2
So, the line would go up......crossing the y axis at -2.........hope this helps
Answer:
35
Step-by-step explanation:
35 is exactly 152 but since its asking for greater then you're right it is 36.
But since it says '>' it means not equal to so it would be:
x > 35
or
x ≥ 36
In exact form it would be 4/3
Part A:
First we define the variable to be used for the problem:
x: the number of pages that Sandra should fax
The inequality for rent is:
0.06x <= 80
Note that the price will be less than using the fax from the office, since for the same number of pages, we have:
y = 0.10x
Answer:
an inequality that can be used to calculate the number of pages that Sandra should fax in a year is:
0.06x <= 80
Part B:
0.06x <= 80
From here we clear x:
x <= 80 / 0.06
x <= 1333.33333
Nearest whole number
x <= 1333
Sandra can use the leased fax for 1333 pages and the cost will be:
1333 * 0.06 = 79.98 $
Using the office fax the cost will be:
1333 * 0.1 = 133.3 $
Answer:
By renting the sara machine, you save:
133.3-79.98 = 53.32 $
