40s=360+30a
40s+30a=$3960

40s=360+30a
40s/40=360+30a/40
s = 9+3/4a

40(9+3/4a) +30a=$3960
360+30a+30a=$3960
360+60a=$3960
360-360+60a=$3960
60a=$3960
60a/60 = $3960/60
a= $60
The algebra book is $60

Suppose y varies inversely with x. Write an equation if y=7 when x=-4
luda_lava [24]

Answer:

y = -28 ÷ x

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard format of a inversely proportional equation goes by the format of y = k ÷ x. The question asks us to write an equation if y = 7 when x = -4 and y varies inversely with x.

So we substitute the values y = 7 and x = -4 in the equation y = k ÷ x

K = constant, we have to work this out

7 = k ÷ -4

7 × - 4 = k

k = - 4 × 7

k = -28

k = -28 So then we put this back into the original y = k ÷ x to find our final equation which is y = -28 ÷ x

Erik and Nita are playing a game with numbers. In the game, they each think of a random number from zero to 20. If the differenc
Mademuasel [1]
Let X is the random number Erik thinks of, and Y is the random number Nita thinks of.
Both X and Y are in the range from 0 to 20.
<span>X<=20
Y<=20
If the difference between their two numbers is less than 10, then Erik wins.
The difference between the two numbers can be written X-Y, or Y-X depending on which number (X or Y) is greater. But we do not know that. In order not to get negative value, we calculate absolute value of X-Y,  written |X-Y| which will give positive value whether X is greater than Y or not.
If |X-Y|<10 Erik wins.
