Step-by-step explanation:

First, distribute the outside numbers into the parentheses:

5*x+5*-12+6=3*2x+3*-7

5x-60+6=6x-21

Combine like terms

5x-54=6x-21

Add 21 to both sides

5x-33=6x

Subtract 5x from both sides

you wind up getting x=-33

x=-33

you can check to make sure that's the correct answer but simply plugging in -33 for x and checking to make sure both sides of the equation are equal:

-33-12=-45*5=-225+6=-219

-33*2=-66-7=-73*3=-219

So, yes, x equals -33

You distribute the 5 and times it by x and -12 then the problem would look like this

5x-60+6=3(2x-7)


next you distribute the 3 and times it with 2x and -7 then the problem would look like this

5x-60+6=6x-21


then you solve by combining like terms on the left so you minus 6 from 60 and get 54 so now you have


5x-54=6x-21


now you add 54 to -21 but since it’s a negative you will subtract and take the larger numbers side which will be 33

now you have a problem that looks like this

5x=6x+33

so now you subtract 6x with 5x and get 1x

so the problem will look like this

1x= 33

then you divide 1x on both sides and the answer is

x = 33

A cup of raw Arborio rice weighs 7 ounces. One cup will serve 1 people. Arborio rice is purchased in 2-pound boxes for $1.99. Ho
kow [346]

The rice will cost $17.6  for serving 40 people

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

We need to determine the cost of serving 40 people with rice

Arborio rice is purchased in 2-pound boxes for $1.99

The price of 1 pound box will be \frac{\$ 1.99}{2}=\$ 0.995

1 Pound (lb) is equal to 16 ounces (oz)

Therefore, the price of 16 ounces is  $0.995

A cup of raw Arborio rice weighs 7 ounces and it serve 1 people

\begin{array}{l}{\text { The cost per person is } \frac{\$ 0.995}{16} \times 7=\$ 0.44} \\\\ {\text { The cost for serving } 40 \text { people }=\$ 0.44 \times 40=\$ 17.6}\end{array}

Therefore rice will cost $17.6  for serving 40 people

Hese are the values in Paul’s data set.
andrew-mc [135]
Answer: See description below.

The residuals are the differences between the predicted values and the actual values. You will need to make a scatter plot of each difference.

Here are the five points that you will need to plot:
20 - 21 = -1  (1, -1)
17 - 16 = 1 (2, 1)
9 - 10 = -1 (4, -1)
6 - 5 = 1 (5, 1)
2 - 2 = 0 (6, 0)

You have two coupons, one is for $25 off and the other is for 25% off. When would you use the $25 off coupon? When would you use
Brut [27]

Answer:

If I had two coupons, one for $ 25 off and the other for 25% off, to determine when I would use the $ 25 off coupon and when I would use the 25% off coupon, and when it would not matter which coupon I would use, I must carry out the following reasoning:

The $ 25 off coupon is a flat coupon, that is, it does not adapt to the price of the thing to be paid, but rather maintains its value constantly. Therefore, its utilization will be higher if those $ 25 represent a high value compared to the initial price of the product: if the thing is worth $ 50, a $ 25 off coupon represents half its value, while if the thing is worth $ 500, that same coupon will only represent 5% of it. Therefore, I would use the coupon for things that are worth between $ 25 and $ 99.

Instead, the 25% off coupon is a variable coupon, which is adapted according to the value of the product. In other words, a discount will always be made for 25% of said value: if the product is worth $ 80, the discount will be $ 20 (80 x 0.25), while if the product is worth $ 1,000, the discount will be $ 250 (1000 x 0.25 ). Therefore, I would use the coupon for products with a price greater than $ 100, that is, from $ 101 and up.

Finally, since 25% of $ 100 is $ 25, if you buy something of that value, it would be indistinct to use either of the two coupons.
