2 7/8 is not an integer value, so cannot be expressed as an integer.
It can be rounded to the nearest integer, 3.
The answer is 4 hours
p -<span> the programming time
</span>c - time spent on commercials
<span>A radio station broadcasts programs and commercials 20 hours everyday:
p + c = 20
</span><span>The ratio of the time spent on commercials to the programming time is 1:4.
c : p = 1 : 4
p = c * 4 : 1
p = 4c
p + c = 20
p = 4c
_____
4c + c = 20
5c = 20
c = 20 : 5
c = 4h</span>
To solve this question all you have to do is input the X and y coordinates and test each point in the question. To see which of those points. Have the left hand side equal to the right hand side after doing all of the operations.
We want to subtract 8x + 3 from -2x+5. We can create an expression to represent this.
-2x + 5 - (8x + 3).
After this, lets distribute the - sign (think of this like expanding something with -1).
-2x + 5 - 8x - 3
Lastly, we just need to combine like terms.
-2x + 5 - 8x - 3
Combine the 5 and -3 to get 2.
-2x + 2 - 8x
Combine the -2x and -8x to get -10x.
-10x + 2
The final answer to the question is therefore A.
X would equal 9. Subtract 18 from both sides then divide by two to get 9 as X
