Two less than five times a number is 28. what is the number

2 answers:

7 0

The number is 6 because five times 6 is 30, and 30 minus 2 is 28. You could also solve this backwards in the future and take 28 plus 2 and then divide that number by 5 (opposite of subtracting 2 is adding two, opposite of multiplying by five is dividing by 5).

5x-2=28 (writing it this way might also help, because now you just have to solve for x)

2 less than (-2) 5 times a number (5x) is (=) 28 (28)
-2+5x=28
add 2 to both sides
5x=30
divide both sides by 5
x=6

the number is 6

A Company received an invoice for $1618 dated May 11, terms 2/15 EOM.

Alona [7]

Answer:

26th of May is the last date of the discount period.

15th of June is the last date of credit period

$1600

Step-by-step explanation:

The first question say :

What is the last date of the discount period and last date of credit period?

Initially, EOM is an acronym meaning End of Month

Now. 2/15 indicates 2% discount of the amount to be paid must be included in the payment within 15 days after the end of the month in which invoice is issued.

The last date of the discount period

In order for the company to be eligible for the discount, the company must be willing to pay the invoice within the stipulated time -frame of 15 days from the date the invoice is being issued. So from 11th of May , 15 days after will be May 26th . Thus 26th of May is the last date of the discount period.

The last date of credit period

The last date of the credit period will be 15 days after the end of the Month. The present month is May, so 15 days after the month of May falls at June 15. Thus, 15th of June is the last date of credit period

The second part of the question says:

• If invoice is paid on June 12, how much would the company pay? (Round your answers to the nearest hundredth)

Here , there are two things applied;

The date of the discount period has been passed away (i.e May 26th) but the invoice is being paid on June 12
The payment is done before the last date of credit period.

Thus, the company needs to pay the full amount of $1618 since the date of discount period has passed away.

Now to the nearest hundredth , we have = $1600

Write a problem situation to match the inequality: x divided by 4 less than or equal to 5

Paha777 [63]

Answer:

yes it is ill explain

Step-by-step explanation:Find the student's error in solving the following inequality.31 < -5x + 625 < -5x-5 < x

The student should have added 6 to both sides instead of subtracting it.

The student divided 25/-5 incorrectly.

The student should have switched the direction of the inequality sign to get -5> x for a final answer.

Find the student's error in solving the following inequality.2 < -3x -4 < 56 < -3x < 5-2 > x > -5/3

The student should have added 4 to all parts (left, middle, and right) to get 6 < -3x < 9.

The student divided 6/-3 incorrectly.

The student should not have switched the direction of the sign in the final step.

The student should have added 4 to all parts (left, middle, and right) to get 6 < -3x < 9.

Which answer choice is a solution to the inequality ?

-1

1.5

Identify the property used in each step of solving the inequality .

Step 2: Addition property

Step 3: Multiplication property

Which numbers are solutions to the inequality 2x - 1 > x + 2? Check all of the boxes that apply.

4, 5

If x < 5 and x > c, give a value of c such that there are no solutions to the compound inequality. Explain why there are no solutions

Sample response: The value of c could be 5 or any number greater than 5.

The solution is the intersection of both solution sets of the given inequalities.

The solutions of the compound inequality must be solutions of both inequalities.

A number cannot be both less than 5 and greater than 5 at the same time.

Identify the graph of the inequality 2(2x - 1) + 7 < 13 or -2x + 5 -10.
