They’ve started out with 0yds of course so, -8yds on the first down. They’ve gained 20yds overall in both downs. You’re now trying to find “x”. -8+x=20. To find “x”, you do 20+8 because the 8 is negative and you would lose numbers in order to get 20, so “x” equals 28. Therefore, you’ve gained 28 yds in the second down and lost 8 yds in the first down.
I really, really hoped that helped. It took awhile to figure out, but I’m sure I’ve got it now.
Answer:
7.3 in
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of triangle = (1/2) *b*h
27 = (1/2) * x^2
54 = x^2
square root (54) = x
x=> 7.3484....
Rounding off to 1 decimal place, you get 7.3 in.
Answer:
For less than 7 uniforms.
Step-by-step explanation:
The first company she called charges $70 per uniform.
So, the cost of x uniforms will be $70x.
The second company she called charges $280 plus $30 per uniform.
So, the cost of x uniform will be $(280 + 30x).
Now, if the total cost of purchasing x number of uniforms from the first company is less than that from the second company then, we can write the inequality equation as
70x < 280 + 30x
⇒ 70x - 30x < 280
⇒ 40x < 280
⇒ x < 7
Therefore, for less than 7 uniforms the cost from the first company will be less than the cost from the second company. (Answer)
