X + 3 * 21 = 12
x + 63 = 12
x = 12-63
x = -51
The wording was a little odd, but I hope this is what you’re looking for!
So solve for q
first factor q out of the summation

now, determine what the summation is

its been a while since ive done summations so i dont remember any tricks but that summation is essentially equal to

or factored to be something like this

which i believe there's a formula for
regardless using a calculator, the summation turns out to be 4/3 i think
you should definitely double check this step
so replacing the summation for 4/3, the equation is now
q*(4/3) =8
pretty easy to solve from here
divide 4/3 to both sides to get q
any questions?
The cost of using 19 HCF of water is $32.49
Given in the question:
The monthly cost (in dollars) of the water use (in dollars) is a linear function of the amount of water used (in hundreds of cubic feet, HCF)
The cost for using 17 HCF of water is using $32.13
and, the cost of using 35 HCF is $61.83.
To find the cost of using 19 HCF of water.
Now, According to the question:
The cost for using 17 HCF of water is $32.13
and, the cost of using 35 HCF is $61.83.
To find the slope:
(17, 32.13) and (35, 61.83)
Slope = (61.83 - 32.13)/ (35 - 17) = 1.65
We know that:
Formula of slope :
y = mx + b
32.13 = 1.65 x 17 + b
b = 1.14
The equation will be :
C(x) = 1.65x + 1.14
Now, To find the cost of using 19 HCF of water.
C(19) = 1.65 × 19 + 1.14
C(19) = $32.49
Hence, the cost of using 19 HCF of water is $32.49.

Offer 2 is the best.
To find how much you get off of each car, multiply the amount by the fraction. For offer 2, do £11 100×⅓ and you should get 3700.
For offer 3 do £9600×¼ and you get 2400.
Since you get the most money off with offer 2, that would be the best offer.
Hope this helps :)
