Answer: $x=5(13-12p)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation: $x=65-60p$

$\\\Rightarrowx=(5\times13)-(5\times12)p$

Since 5 is the greatest common factor of 65 and 60 in the given expression.

Therefore, the above expression can be written as

$x=5(13-12p)$

Hence, by factoring the side that contains the variable p we have the expression $x=5(13-12p)$ .

Solve each by graphing. 1. y = x - 2 Y = -1/2x + 4

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In the graph of y = x2, the point (0, 0) is called the vertex. The vertex is the minimum point in a parabola that opens upward. In a parabola that opens downward, the vertex is the maximum point. We can graph a parabola with a different vertex.

Mr. Marcucci received a bonus of $496 from his employer. He has to pay 33% of his bonus to taxes. How much will Mr. Marcucci pay

tiny-mole [99]

Edit: 33% is not $\frac{1}{3}$ , therefore my solution is wrong. The correct answer is 0.33 x 496, which is $163.68

The following is the original solution, which is incorrect.
33% = $\frac{1}{3}$ . Multiply the bonus of $496 by $\frac{1}{3}$ to get the solution of $\frac{496}{3}$ , or 165 and $\frac{1}{3}$

Therefore the solution is $165.33

FIrstly, distribute 4 so that it multiplies with 6x and -11: $28\geq 24x-44$
