x+142 =3x+64

subtract x from each side

142 = 2x+64

subtract 64 from each side

142-64 = 2x

78=2x

divide by 2

78/2 = x

x=39

The number is 39

n-the\ number\\\\n+142=64\cdot3n\\\\n+142=192n\qquad\text{subtract n from both sides}\\\\142=191n\qquad\text{divide both sides by 191}\\\\\dfrac{142}{191}=n\to \boxed{n=\dfrac{142}{191}}


n+142=3n+64\qquad\text{subtract 142 from both sides}\\\\n=3n-78\qquad\text{subtract 3n from both sides}\\\\-2n=-78\qquad\text{divide both sides ny (-2)}\\\\\boxed{n=39}

Kate has an interior decorating business. She charges a base fee of $25 for each visit and $40 per hour for her labor. 1) Write
nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

1) C = $25 + $40 × h

2) The domain for the ≠unction is 0 ≤ h ≤ ∞

The range for the function is 25 ≤ C ≤ ∞

3) Continuous

Step-by-step explanation:

1) The given parameters are;

The base fee charged = $25

The amount charged for labor = $40/hour

The total cost for h number of hours is C = $25 + $40 × h

2) The domain for the ≠unction is 0 ≤ h ≤ ∞

The range for the function is 25 ≤ C ≤ ∞

3) The situation is continuous because the different input values of h can be infinite (from o to infinity)
