Negative one-fifth of a number, increased<br> by 3, is at most 1.

If we know the value of the car decreases $500 for every 1,000 miles, and that the car is driven about 10,000 miles every year, that means that you need to take the total value of the car (23,000) and subtract it from the amount of money it is losing per year. Again, the car is driven about 10,000 miles per year, so that means that the car will most likely continue to be driven 10,000 miles per year. If you do the math, for one year, the value of the car will drop $5,000 ($500 x 10, because it is $500 per every 1,000 miles) So, for each year, you can just multiply the number of years by $5,000 to find out how much the vehicle has depreciated over time.

Hope this helped you and made sense! Feel free to ask me any questions you have!

An oven heating element turns on when the internal temperature falls to 20 degrees below the set temperature and turns off when

son4ous [18]

Answer:

The range of the oven is $385\leq T\leq 410$

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

The internal temperature falls to 20 degrees below the set temperature and turns off when the temperature reaches 5 degrees above the set temperature.

You preheat the oven to 405 degrees before putting a cake in and baking it for an hour at 405.

The internal temperature falls to 20 degrees, therefore the lowest set can be:

405-20=385 degree.

The temperature reaches 5 degrees above the set temperature 405, therefore the upper set is: 405+5=410 degree.

Hence, the temperature will be lying between 385 degree and 410 degree.

This can be written as: $385\leq T\leq 410$

Hence, the range of the oven is $385\leq T\leq 410$

asmine wants to use her savings of $1128 to buy video games and music CDs. The total price of the music CDs she bought was $72.

Inga [223]

Let g represent video games. The equation you can use to solve for the amount of video games and CDs Jasmine can buy with her savings is:
43g+72=1128

The 43g part is because it costs 43 dollars for every video game, so you need to multiply 43 by the amount of games she buys to get the total for g games.
The +72 part is because you already have the amount spent on CDs, and needs to be added to the cost of video games, so that the sum would be equal to 1128.

Now, solving:
43g+72=1128 ...subtract 72 from both sides
43g=1056 ...divide both sides by 43 to isolate g
g=24.5581395349
Rounded up, that would be 25 games, but Jasmine's savings isn't enough to buy 25 games that cost $43 each, so you would go down to 24 games.

The answer: Jasmine can buy 24 games with her savings after spending $72 on CDs.
