Total money Marcus has = $28

Money spent to buy a notebook = $3.75

Money left now = 28-3.75=24.25

Money needed to be saved = $11.25

So, the amount of money Marcus can spend = 24.25-11.25=13

Cost of a packet of chips = $1.30

The inequality to determine the maximum number of chips he can buy is:

Let the number of chips Marcus can buy = x

As he cannot spend more than $13 to buy chips so equation becomes:

1.30x\leq 13

Solving this we get

x\leq 10

Hence, Marcus can buy a maximum of 10 packs of chips and  save $11.25

Solve for x, give exact answers: 6x^2 - 7x - 3 = 0
Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

6x∧2-7x-3=0

the coefficient of x² multiplied by -3 = -18

we need to look for 2 numbers that when we add it to together it will equate to -7x

+2 and -9 is the answer

6x∧2+2x-9x-3=0

2x(3x+1)-3(3x+1)=0

(2x-3)(3x+1)=0

equate each brackets to 0

2x-3=0   3x+1=0

2x=3        3x=-1

x=3/2         x=-1/3

A) x= all real #s<br>B) x&gt;0<br>C) x=5<br>D) x=12​
sashaice [31]

Answer:

Set of all real numbers

Step-by-step explanation:

When we talk of domain, we mean the possible values of x that the equation can take without being undefined

So x-values that makes the equation defined are the domain of the graph

From the diagram, we can see that the graph extends from negative infinity to positive infinity

What this mean is that the possible values here come from the top right and extends to the left

So this means that the range of possible values are the set of all real numbers

_________________ of the time, a "be back" won't return.
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

88%

Step-by-step explanation:

When it comes to finance, when customer says that they will "be back", this usually means that they will not return. This is mainly due to the price or the different options that they have in finding the same product that they would want. Expecting a customer to come back will really depend on the customers initial reaction to both the price and the quality of the product.

When a​ car's tire pressure is 30 pounds per square inch​ (psi), it averages 20.5 mpg of gasoline. If the tire pressure is incre
bearhunter [10]

For A, divide total miles by the miles per gallon for each tire pressure to find the number of gallons of gas used:

At 30 psi: 23000 / 20.5 = 1121.95 gallons , round to 1121 gallons.

At 35 psi: 23000 / 21.1 = 1090 gallons.

Number of gallons saved: 1121 - 1090 = 31 gallons.

B) multiply the cost per gallon by the number of gallons saved:

31 gallons x $2.00 = $62.00 saved.

C) Multiply the gallons saved by 1 car by total number of cars:

31 gallons x 140 million cars = 4,340 million gallons ( 4 billion 340 million gallons)
