How is subtracting-4x from 9x similar to subtracting -4 from 9?

Question:

How is subtracting -4x from 9x similar to subtraction -4 from 9?

Answer:

If both of them have the same variable lets say this:

2a + 2a = 4a
Just add 2 + 2 and then keep the a later at the end since they both have the same letter.

So in this case, it will be the same as subtracting -4 from 9 because they both have the same variables so the x would stay the same:

-4x + 9x = 5x 
would be the answer.


Hope this helped!

13. Maria earns $8 per hour plus a 5% commission on the price
Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

Inequality:

120 + 0.05x ≥ 200

Solution:

x ≥ $1,600

Her total weekly sales must be equal to or greater than $1,600

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the weekly sales she must make to reach her goal.

Given;

Pay rate = $8

Weekly total work hours = 15 hours

Commission on sales = 5% = 0.05

Total weekly earnings is;

8×15 + 0.05×x

120 + 0.05x

Minimum Weekly target earnings = $200

So;

120 + 0.05x ≥ 200

Solving the inequality equation;

0.05x ≥ 200 - 120

0.05x ≥ 80

x ≥ 80/0.05

x ≥ 1600

x ≥ $1,600

Her total weekly sales must be equal to or greater than $1,600

How does 1/12 - 5/6 = 9/12 um tring to learn how to add this like ?
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

1/12 - 5/6 = -9/12

We need to get a common denominator of 12

1/12 - 5/6*2/2 = -9 /12

1/12 - 10/12 = -9/12

Since the denominators are the same, we can subtract the numerators

1-10 = -9

-9/12 = - 9/12

We can simplify -9/12 by dividing the top and bottom by 3

-9/3 = -3

12 /3 = 4

-9/12 = -3/4

Brut [27]

Answer:

3.5

Multiply 2 on both sides to get the w by itself.

tan60 x 2 = w

Put tan60 into the calculator.

2 x 1.732050808 = w

Multiply.

w = 3.5
