Company A:
250+(10x)

Company B:
90+(12x)

80ft would cost the same. The cost would be 1,050

Answer:

Let x be the no.of square feet for landscaping

Company A

Monthly consulting fee = $250

Cost of landscaping of 1 sq.feet = $10

Cost of landscaping of x sq.feet = $10x

So, Total charge by company A = 250+10x  ---1

Company B

Monthly consulting fee = $90

Cost of landscaping of 1 sq.feet = $12

Cost of landscaping of x sq.feet = $12x

So, Total charge by company B = 90+12x   ---2

Now we are supposed to find  how many square feet of landscaping will the two companies charge the same amount

So, Equate 1 and 2

250+10x=90+12x

160=2x

80=x

So, the two companies charge the same amount for 80 sq.feet

Total charge by company A for 80 sq.feet = 250+10(80)= $1050

Total charge by company B for 80 sq.feet = 90+12(90)=$1170

5 divided into 290 show work
Archy [21]
How many times does 5 go into 29? It can go into it 5 times which equals 25. Now what's 29 - 25? 4 is the answer then you see how many times can 5 go into 4, well it can't so then you bring the number 0 to make it 40. Now how many times can 5 go into 40? It can go into 40 eight times since 8x5=40 so the answer is 58

Solve the equation.<br><br> −10x + 1 + 7x = 37
matrenka [14]
You combine like terms which are -10x and 7x and 1 and 37. Then it becomes -3x=36. x would equal to 36/-3, which is -12.
