Answer:

The zero of the equation is 40

It means the number of wedding invitations they can send based on their budget

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine the zero of the function, we simply set the dependent variable ( m in this case) to zero.

Thus, mathematically;

0 = 50-1.25w

1.25w = 50

w = 50/1.25

w = 40

So what does this mean in the context of the situation?

What it means is that the total number of people they would be able to send the mail to based on their budget is 40

At the start of the week a bookshop had science and art books in the ratio 2:5. By the end of the week, 20% of each type of book
Anastaziya [24]
Let there be 2x science and 5x art books 
<span>science books sold = 2x × 0.2 = 0.4x </span>
<span>science books unsold = 2x – 0.4x = 1.6x </span>

<span>art books sold = 5x × 0.2 = x </span>
<span>art books unsold = 5x – x = 4x </span>

<span>total books unsold = 1.6x + 4x = 5.6x </span>
<span>5.6x = 2240 </span>
<span>x = 400 </span>

<span>2x science = 800 </span>
<span>and 5x art books = 2000 </span>

Twice x, plus 4, is the same as -6.
BARSIC [14]
Start by writing what is said:
2x + 4 = -6
From there just solve for x:

Subtract 4 from both sides
2x + 4 - 4 = -6 - 4
2x = -10

Divide by 2 to get x by itself
2x/2 = -10/2
x = -5
