y=5x-6\\\\5x-6=y\ \ \ \ \ \ |add\ 6\ to\ both\ sides\\\\5x=y+6\ \ \ \ \ |divide\ both\ sides\ by\ 5\\\\x=\frac{y+6}{5}

Casey can buy 3 sandwiches and 5 cups of coffee for $26. Eric can buy 4 sandwiches and 2 cups of coffee for $23. How much does o
dolphi86 [110]
Let's identify what we are looking for in terms of variables.  Sandwiches are s and coffee is c.  Casey buys 3 sandwiches, which is represented then by 3s, and 5 cups of coffee, which is represented by 5c.   Those all put together on one bill comes to 26.  So Casey's equation for his purchases is 3s + 5c = 26.  Eric buys 4 sandwiches, 4s, and 2 cups of coffee, 2c, and his total purchase was 23.  Eric's equation for his purchases then is 4s + 2c = 23.  In order to solve for c, the cost of a cup of coffee, we need to multiply both of those bolded equations by some factor to eliminate the s's.  The coefficients on the s terms are 4 and 3.  4 and 3 both go into 12 evenly, so we will multiply the first bolded equation by 4 and the second one by -3 so the s terms cancel out.  4[3s + 5c = 26] means that 12s + 20c = 104.  Multiplying the second bolded equation by -3:  -3[4s + 2c = 23] means that -12s - 6c = -69.  The s terms cancel because 12s - 12s = 0s.  We are left with a system of equations that just contain one unknown now, which is c, what we are looking to solve for.  20c = 104 and -6c = -69.  Adding those together by the method of elimination (which is what we've been doing all this time), 14c = 35.  That means that c = 2.5 and a cup of coffee is $2.50.  There you go!

A customer that uses an internet plan that costs $10 per month is expected to give a customer rating of 6

<h3>How to determine the customer rating?</h3>

We start by calculating the regression equation of the table of values using a graphing calculator.

Using the graphing calculator, we have:

y = 0.04x + 5.75

When the cost is $10 per month, it means that

x = 10

So, we have:

y = 0.04 * 10 + 5.75

Evaluate

y = 6.15

Approximate

y = 6

Hence, a customer that uses an internet plan that costs $10 per month is expected to give a customer rating of 6

In order, list each property used to find the equivalent expression for 8 + 4(2x - 6). Step 1: 8 + 8x - 24 Step 2: 8 - 24 + 8x S
amid [387]
1. distributive property
2. commutative property (the order of 8x and -24 is swapped)
3. reflexive property ((8-24) = -16; -16 is substituted for 8-24. I prefer "substitution property".)
4. commutative property (the order of 8x and -16 is swapped)
5. distributive property
