sofia wants to rent an apartment. she visits apartment a which charges $100 for a one time deposit and $400 per month for rent.

she visits apartment b which charges $500 for deposit, but only charges $350 per month in rent. write and solve an inequality that shows how many months it would take for the total paid to be less for apartment b.

Given that one time charge of appartment "a" = $100

Given that monthly rent of appartment "a" = $400

say the number of months = x

then total cost of the rent for apartment "a" = 100+400x


Given that one time charge of appartment "b" = $500

Given that monthly rent of appartment "b" = $350

then total cost of the rent for apartment "b" = 500+350x


Now we have to make an inequality so that number of months it would take for the total paid to be less for apartment b.

that means 100+400x is less than 500+350x


Hence required inequality is 100+400x<500+350x.


Now we have to solve this inequality.

400x-350x<500-100

50x<400

divide both side by 50

x<8

hence final answer is number of months should be less than 8.

Find an explicit formula for the arithmetic sequence -2,-14,-26,-38,...
slava [35]

Answer:

-12

Step-by-step explanation:

We can just try and find what works! since we can subtract 12 from -2 and get -14, we might try subtracting 12 every time. After we test it out, we see that is is correct!

Suppose a water tank in the shape of a right circular cylinder is thirty feet high and eight feet in diameter. a) How much sheet
Zanzabum

Answer:

755.98 ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Height of the Cylinder= 30 feet

Diameter = 8 feet

Radius= Diameter/2 = 8/2 = 4 feet

The Amount of Metal Sheet used in constructing the tank is the Total  Surface Area of the Tank.

Total Surface Area of a Cylinder =

=2\pi r(r+h)\\=2*\pi*4(4+30)\\=8*\pi*30=\\=240\pi\\=755.98 ft^2

5. Abbey Road Motors pays a percent commission to its sales people. They are paid
ira [324]

Answer:

c(p) = {0.2 p ⇒ p < 1000

           0.24 p - 40 ⇒ 1000 ≤ p ≤ 2000

           0.29 p - 140 ⇒ p > 2000}

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to solve the problem

- The profit is represented by p

1. If the profit is under $1,000,  the commission rate is 20%

∵ The profit is p < 1000

∵ 20% of p = \frac{20}{100}*p = 0.2 p

∵ c(p) is the function of the commission

∴ c(p) = 0.2 p when p < 1000

2. If the profit is at least $1,000 and less than or equal to  $2,000, the

  commission rate is 20% of the first $1,000 and 24% of the remainder

  of  the profit

- At least means greater than or equal

∵ The profit 1000 ≤ p ≤ 2000

- The commission is divided into 20% of first $1000 and 24% of

  the reminder

∵ 20% of 1000 = \frac{20}{100}*1000 = 200

∵ The remainder of the profit = p - 1000

∵ 24% of the remainder profit = \frac{24}{100}*(p-1000)

  = 0.24(p - 1000) = 0.24 p - 240

∴ The total commission = 200 + 0.24 p - 240

∴ The total commission = 0.24 p - 40

∴ c(p) = 0.24 p - 40 when 1000 ≤ p ≤ 2000

3. If the profit is above $2,000, the rate is 20% of the first $1,000

   of profit,  24% of the next $1,000 of profit, and 29% of the amount

   of profit over $2,000

∵ The profit p > 2000

- The commission is divided into 20% of first $1000 and 24% of the

  next $1,000 of profit, and 29% of the amount of profit over $2,000

∵ 20% of 1000 = \frac{20}{100}*1000 = 200

∵ 24% of 1000 = \frac{24}{100}*1000 = 240

- The amount of profit over $2,000 = p - 2000

∵ 29% of the amount of profit over $2,000 =

   \frac{29}{100}*(p-2000) = 0.29(p - 2000)

   = 0.29 p - 580

∴ The total commission = 200 + 240 + 0.29 p - 580

∴ The total commission = 0.29 p - 140

∴ c(p) = 0.29 p - 140 when p > 2000

* The commission function is:

c(p) = {0.2 p ⇒ p < 1000

            0.24 p - 40 ⇒ 1000 ≤ p ≤ 2000

            0.29 p - 140 ⇒ p > 2000}
