The required equation is <u>135 + 9x > 250</u>.
The number of lawns Ed must mow is assumed to be x.
The amount Ed charges for each lawn he mows is $9.
Thus, the total amount Ed earns by mowing x lawns = $9x.
The savings which Ed has is $135.
Thus, the total amount Ed will have to spend can be written as the expression, $(135 + 9x).
The cost of the video game is given to be $250.
We are asked to write an equation, that can be used to find the number of lawns Ed mow, that is x so that the amount Ed has will be more than the amount he needs to buy the video game.
This can be shown as the equation:
Total amount Ed has > Cost of the video game,
or, 135 + 9x > 250.
Thus, the required equation is <u>135 + 9x > 250</u>.

Complimentary angles will add up to 90 degrees
x + y = 90
x = 2y
2y + y = 90
3y = 90
y = 90/3
y = 30......this is one angle
x = 2y
x = 2(30)
x = 60.....this is ur other angle
and ur larger angle is 60 degrees
Answer:
The zeros are x=0,3,-2
There is a multiplicity of 1 for all of them.
Step-by-step explanation:
Two workers finished a job in 7.5 days.
How long would it take each worker to do the job by himself if one of the workers needs 8 more days to finish the job than the other worker?
let t = time required by one worker to complete the job alone
then
(t+8) = time required by the other worker (shirker)
let the completed job = 1
A typical shared work equation
7.5%2Ft + 7.5%2F%28%28t%2B8%29%29 = 1
multiply by t(t+8), cancel the denominators, and you have
7.5(t+8) + 7.5t = t(t+8)
7.5t + 60 + 7.5t = t^2 + 8t
15t + 60 = t^2 + 8t
form a quadratic equation on the right
0 = t^2 + 8t - 15t - 60
t^2 - 7t - 60 = 0
Factor easily to
(t-12) (t+5) = 0
the positive solution is all we want here
t = 12 days, the first guy working alone
then
the shirker would struggle thru the job in 20 days.
Sea level is 0
robert dives 40 ft.....-40
he then rises 23 ft.....-40 + 23 = -17
he then dives 19 ft to meet Sam....-17 - 19 = -36
together they rise 31 ft...-36 + 31 = - 5
they are 5 ft below sea level <==
