Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of kids be x

We are given that she charge $25 per day per child

So, she charge for x kids per day = $25x

So,charge for x kids for 20 days = 20 \times 25 x = 500x

Her expenditure per day per kid is of $5

So, her expenditure per day for x kids = $5x

So, her expenditure 20 days for x kids =  20 \times5 x = 100x

So, she gained for taing care of x kids for 20 days = 500x-100x = 400x

Since we are given that her target is to earn $2000

So, A.T.Q

400x= 2000

x= \frac{2000}{400}

x=5

Hence the minimum number of kids she has to watch per weekday that month is 5

Which of the following ordered pairs represents the solution to the system of equations below?
expeople1 [14]
<span>-3x + 2y = 2  eq (1)

  7x - 3y = 7    eq (2)

Mutiply eq (1) by 3 and eq (2) by 2:

-9x + 6y = 6

14x - 6y = 14

Add th two new equations:

-9x + 14x = 6 + 14

=> 5x = 20

=> x = 20/5

=> x = 4

Now from eq (1)

-3(4) + 2y = 2

=> 2y = 2 + 12

=> 2y = 14

=> y = 14 / 2

=> y = 7

So the ordered pair is (4,7)

Answer: option B. (4,7)

(2x-6)(x+11)<br><br>a)x2-66x+16<br><br>b)x2+16x+11<br><br>c)2x2+16x-66<br><br>d)2x2+11x-66

The answer to your math problem is C. The reason being is 2x times x is 2x^2 and 2x times 11 is 22x. So you first part of the problem looks like 2x^2+22. Then -6 times x is -6x and -6 times 11 is -66. So now the problem is 2x^2+22x-6x-66. So your answer after solving it is 2x^2+16x-66.
