Answer:
864
Step-by-step explanation:
You need to divide 480 by 10. Then multiply the answer which is 48 miles per day. Then take the 48 times 8 for the next 8 days. Then add the answer of that which is 384 and add it to 480.
Hope this helps.
First simplify the expression into polynomial form,



Now factor into,

Which means the solutions are,


and then two complex solutions because determinant of the third factor
,

(I would recommend changing the wording a bit.)
At 11 am Lacy get's paid around 50 dollars for something such as work. The money sits in her purse until 1:15pm when she pays for something such as food.
You want to break this down.
“5 less than” means you’ll subtract 5 from something.
That something is “3 times a number.” “3 times a number” means 3•x or 3x, since we’ll use x for that unknown number.
So, “5 less than 3 times a number” means “subtract 5 from 3x”: 3x-5
“Is” means “equals”. So 3x-5= something.
7, well, that’s 7.
So “5 less than 3 times a number is 7” means ”subtract 5 from 3x and set that equal to 7.”
3x-5=7
