Answer:
The answer to your question is the letter B. x = 30
Step-by-step explanation:
Data
Find x
Process
To solve this problem use proportions. Compare the small triangle and the large triangle.
1) For the small triangle
x/ (24 - 4) = x/20
2) For the large triangle
(x + 6) / 24
3.- Equal both expressions
x/20 = (x + 6)/24
-Solve for x
24x = 20(x + 6)
-Expand
24x = 20x + 120
-Simplify like terms
24x - 20x = 120
4x = 120
-Result
x = 120/4
x = 30
Answer:2.26796
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer is $320.
In order to solve this, you can start off by turning this word problem into an expression.
$70x → $70 per hour (x represents the amount of hours)
+40 → plus $40 for the call
Substitute the x for 4 and solve the equation.
70x+40
70(4)+40
280+40
320
The plumber charges $320 for 4 hours of work.
Answer:
z<-2 or z<1
Step-by-step explanation:
The compound inequality to be solved is
5z+3<-7 or -2z-6>-8
Simplifying we get,
z<-2 or z<1
NB: the inequality sign at the right side of or has changed because we have divided through by -2
