Answer:

$70
y = 25 + 0.9x
$250

Step-by-step explanation:

1. 10% of $50 is $5, so the purchases would come to $50 -5 = $45. Added to the $25 membership fee, the total cost for the year would be

$45 +25 = $70

2. The member pays $25 even if no purchases are made. Then any purchases are 100% - 10% = 90% of the marked price. So, the total is ...

y = 25 + 0.90x

3. $25 is 10% of $250, so that is the amount the member would have to purchase to break even on cost.

If you like, you can compare the cost without the membership (x) to the cost with the membership (25+.9x) and see where those costs are equal.

x = 25 +0.9x . . . . . x is the spending level at which there is no advantage

0.1x = 25 . . . . . . . . subtract 0.9x

25/0.1 = x = 250 . . . divide by 0.1

When I solved this equation I got x=0.5

qwelly [4]

You might have made an error the first time you solved for x. I got x = -0.5.

When you have your log base 4, the way you cancel that out is by making 4 the base on both sides, so you get 4^(log4) to reduce to 1, and you're left with:

2x + 3 = 4^(1/2) ... Simplify

2x + 3 = 2

2x = -1

x = -1/2

If you plug that back in, everything checks out. Maybe double check your use of logarithm/exponent properties?

Which two equations are true?(2×10−4)+(1.5×10−4)=3.5×10−4(3×10−5)+(2.2×10−5)=6.6×10−10 (6.3×10−1)−(2.1×10−1)=3×10−1(5.4×103)−(2.

tiny-mole [99]

let me edit your question as:

Which two equations are true?

Eq1:

(2×10−4)+(1.5×10−4)=3.5×10−4(3×10−5)+(2.2×10−5)

Eq2:

6.6×10−10(6.3×10−1)−(2.1×10−1)=3×10−1(5.4×103)−(2.7×103)

Eq3:

2.7×103(7.5×106)−(2.5×106)=5×100

Answer:

No one is true

Step-by-step explanation:

let's check each equation, if the values on both sides (left and right side) are equal then the equation is true otherwise false.

Using PEMDAS rule we are simplifying the equations as;

Eq1:

$(2*10-4)+(1.5*10-4)=3.5*10-4(3*10-5)+(2.2*10-5)\\(16)+(11)=35-4(25)+(17)\\27=35-100+17\\27=-48\\$

Eq2:

$6.6*10-10(6.3*10-1)-(2.1*10-1)=3*10-1(5.4*103)-(2.7*103)\\66-10(62)-(20)=30-1(556.2)-278.1\\66-620-20=30-556.2-278.1\\-574=-804.1$

Eq3:

$2.7*103(7.5*106)-(2.5*106)=5*100\\221089.5-265=500\\220824.5=500\\$

we observed that none of the equation has two same values on both sides thus none of the three equations is true.

Also, no value of Eq1, Eq2 or Eq3 are same thus none of the equation is true
