Answer: The correct option is (b) n > 4.

Step-by-step explanation: Given that six times a number is greater than 20 more than that number.

We are to find the possible values of the number.

Let the given number be n.

Then, according to the given information, we have

$6\times n>n+20\\\\\Rightarrow 6n>n+20\\\\\Rightarrow 6n-n>20\\\\\Rightarrow 5n>20\\\\\Rightarrow n>\dfrac{20}{5}\\\\\Rightarrow n>4.$

Thus, the required possible values of the number are given by

n > 4.

Option (b) is CORRECT.

Help 30 minutes to turn in

First, you are going to want to get the terms to the same power of 10 in scientific notation. Realize that $9.3 \cdot 10^7 = 9.3 \cdot 10^6 \cdot 10^1= 93 \cdot 10^6$ . Essentially, we have converted the $9.3 \cdot 10^7$ to a term with $10^6$ . Now, we can subtract the values in each term that are not 10 as shown below:

$93 \cdot 10^6 - 3.14 \cdot 10^6$

$(93 - 3.14) \cdot 10^6$

$89.86 \cdot 10^6$

Remember that we have to turn it back to scientific notation once we are done!

$89.86 \cdot 10^6 = 8.986 \cdot 10^7$

Our answer is the second choice, $8.98 \cdot 10^7$ . (This is the closest answer to $8.986 \cdot 10^7$ .)

Answer: it will take 5 hours for both costs to be equal

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of months for which the cost of the gyms be equal.

Bro Gym charges members $10 per month plus a one time fee of $100 to sign up. This means that the total amount that Bro Gym charges for x hours is

10x + 100

Muscles R' Us Gym charges members $20 per month plus a one time fee of $50 to sign up. This means that the total amount that Muscles R' Us Gym charges for x hours is

20x + 50

For both cost of the gyms to be equal,

10x + 100 = 20x + 50

20x - 10x = 100 - 50

10x = 50

x = 50/10 = 5
