Answer:
A. $1,710
B. Yes, probably.
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming that a 10% decrease in energy use leads to a 10% decrease in the electric bill:
We'll want to find the value which is 10% less than the original value, i.e., the bill cost which is 90% of the original bill.
90% = 0.9
Since the original bill was $1900, we can just multiply 1900 by 0.9:
Answer: A bill of $1,710 would equal a 10% decrease.
Since $1,672 is less than that, then they have decreased their energy use by more than 10% which is likely a success.
Answer: Yes, probably.
The answer is F(x) = 900x + 600
Let x stands for the number of months
The apartment is rented for $900 a month, so every month it will be paid 900x (for example, for one month (x = 1), you will pay 900 · 1 = $900, for three months (x = 5), you will pay 900 · 5 = $4500, etc.)
A security deposit is paid only once and is not dependent on the number of months. So, its value is only 600.
These two values must be summed up because both must be paid, nothing is to subtract. Therefore, the function f(x) for apartments that rent for $900 a month and a security deposit of $600 is:
f(x) = 900x + 600
Answer:
76w + 17
Step-by-step explanation:
7 ( 5 + 4w ) + 6 ( 8w - 3 )
= 7 ( 5 ) + 7 ( 4w ) + 6 ( 8w ) - 6 ( 3 )
= 35 + 28w + 48w - 18
= 28w + 48w + 35 - 18
= 76w + 17
-2in = the equals sign has a slash through it 0
