The number is 24/11

Step-by-step explanation:

three times

3*

the difference of eight and twice a number

3*( 8-2n)

is five times the number

3*( 8-2n)=5n

To solve

Distribute

3*8 -3*2n = 5n

24 -6n = 5n

Add 6n to each side

24 - 6n +6n = 5n +6n

24 = 11n

Divide each side by 11

24/11 = 11n/11

24/11 =n

The number is 24/11

 Hester sells televisions. She earns a fixed amount for each television and an additional $ 15 if the buyer gets an extended war
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

y =mx +bx

Where y is the total amount earned, m the amount for each extended warranty and b the fixed cost and x the total amount of TVs

For this case the value of x = 16 since we have 16 Tvs with extended warranties and we can do this:

1200 = 15*16 +16b

and solving for b we got:

b= \frac{1200-15*16}{16}= 60

And then we can conclude that she earns 60 for each TV

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we can set a linear model like this:

y =mx +bx

Where y is the total amount earned, m the amount for each extended warranty and b the fixed cost and x the total amount of TVs

For this case the value of x = 16 since we have 16 Tvs with extended warranties and we can do this:

1200 = 15*16 +16b

and solving for b we got:

b= \frac{1200-15*16}{16}= 60

And then we can conclude that she earns 60 for each TV
