Supplier A: 5.25 per bushel and deliver fee of 3 per bushel
Supplier B: 6.50 per busher and flat delivery fee of $1500 each week

500 bushels of grain each week.

Supplier A: 5.25x + 3x = 5.25(500) + 3(500) =  2,625 + 1,500 = 4,125
Supplier B: 6.50x + 1500 = 6.50(500) + 1500 = 3,250 + 1,500 = 4,750

Supplier B would cost more if the company buys 500 bushels of grain per week.

If DE= 4x–1, EF= 9, and DF= 9x–22 , find the value of x
dybincka [34]

Answer:

The correct answer is x = 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, we first must recognize that DE + EF = DF.

From this information, we can set up the following equation when we substitute in the given values:

DE + EF = DF

(4x-1) + 9 = 9x - 22

Our first step is going to be to combine like terms on the left side of the equation.  This is modeled below:

4x - 1 + 9 = 9x - 22

4x + 8 = 9x - 22

Then, we should subtract 4x from both sides of the equation.

8 = 5x - 22

Now, we can add 22 to both sides of the equation.

30 = 5x

Finally, we can divide both sides by 5.

x = 6

Therefore, the correct answer is x = 6.

Hope this helps!

What property justifies that 6x+9/3 =2x + 3? (see the pic of how the fraction is)
spayn [35]

Answer:

C. Distributive property

Step-by-step explanation:

Distributive property says that

a\cdot (b+c)=a\cdot b+a\cdot c

Consider left part of the expression

\dfrac{6x+9}{3}=\dfrac{1}{3}\cdot (6x+9)

By distibutive property,

\dfrac{1}{3}\cdot (6x+9)\\ \\=\dfrac{1}{3}\cdot 6x+\dfrac{1}{3}\cdot 9\\ \\=2x+3

Shania had $20 to spend on seven raffle tickets. After buying them she had $6. How much did each raffle ticket cost?
kogti [31]

Answer:

$2

Step-by-step explanation:

Total money Shania was having = $20.

After buying raffle tickets she was having a total of $6.

Thus ,

The money she spent on the raffle tickets = Money she was having initially -

                                                                         Money she was having after

                                                                         purchasing tickets .

                                                                 = $20 - $6

                                                                 = $14.

Thus She spent a total of $14 on tickets .

Now , number of tickets she bought = 7.

So, cost of each ticket = \frac{Money spent}{Number of tickets} = \frac{14}{7}

                                                          = $2.

Thus , each ticket costs $2 for Shania.
