Answer:
25
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use the Pythagorean theorem to fin x
a^2 + b^2 = c^2 where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse
7^2 + 24^2 = x^2
49+ 576 = x^2
625 = x^2
Take the square root of each side
sqrt( 625) = sqrt(x^2)
25 = x
The expressions for the payment made to Mary are,
(Monday) 90 = 15m + b
(Tuesday) 62 = 8m + b
where m and b are the fee per student and the base fee, respectively. Solving for m and b, the values are 4 and 30.
The equation that represents Mary's earning is
y = 4x + 30
For 20 students,
y = 4(20) + 30 = 110
For Lisa's earnings,
y = 8x + 15
Substituting 20,
y =8(20) + 15 = 175
Thus, Lisa would earn more than Mary by $65.
Answer:
To cancel a term, it is necessary to add the <em>opposite of the term</em> to both sides of the equation
Step-by-step explanation:
Adding opposites creates a sum of zero. Zero added to anything else does not change the its value. So, adding the opposite of a term effectively removes it from (that side of) the equation.
Answer:
f(10) = 342
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = 3x² + 6x - 18
f(10 = 3(10)² + 6(10) - 18
f(10) = 3(100) + 60 - 18
f(10) = 300 + 60 - 18
f(10) = 360 - 18
f(10) = 342
