So first you would divide 1950/6 to find the amount for one year of their age.
Then you would multiply that by the ages, which should get you 4 numbers, then you all those numbers together. Try 9750.

A company has a budget of $280,000 for computing equipment. Tablets cost $500 each, laptops cost $2000 each, and servers cost $5

Kazeer [188]

Answer:

The number of tablets 200

the number of laptops 40

and, the number of servers 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of tablets be 'x'

the number of laptops be 'y'

and, the number of servers be 'z'

According to the given question

Total budget = $280,000

Tablets cost = $500 each

laptops cost = $2000 each

servers cost = $5000 each

Thus,

500x + 2000y + 5000z = 280,000 ..............(1)

also,

x = 5y ................(2)

and,

y = 2z

z = $\frac{\textup{y}}{\textup{2}}$ ............(3)

substituting y from 2 and 3 in equation 1, we get

(500 × 5y) + (2000 × y) + (5000 × $\frac{\textup{y}}{\textup{2}}$ ) = 280,000

2500y + 2000y + 2500y = 280,000

7000y = 280,000

y = 40

substituting y in equation 2, we get

x = 5 × 40 = 200

substituting y in equation 3 we get

z = $\frac{\textup{40}}{\textup{2}}$

z = 20

hence,

the number of tablets 200

the number of laptops 40

and, the number of servers 20

27^x = 9^x − 4 Question 1 options: x = 8 x = 4 x = −4 x = −8

Mariulka [41]

Answer:

x = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation:

$27^x=9^{x-4}$

Note that

$27=3^3\\ \\9=3^2,$

then

$27^x=(3^3)^x=3^{3x}\\ \\9^{x-4}=(3^2)^{x-4}=3^{2(x-4)}$

Rewrite the equation as

$3^{3x}=3^{2(x-4)},$

then

$3x=2(x-4)\\ \\3x=2x-8\\ \\3x-2x=-8\\ \\x=-8$
