One yard company charges $10x + $50 a month to mow and edge a lawn. A second company charges $8x + $60 a month to mow and edge a

lawn. Each lawn company also offers additional services for an extra fee. Let x represent the number of additional services. Mr. Mead is comparing the two companies. How many additional services are needed for the two companies to be the same price?

<span>Set the two equations equal to each other and solve for x
 10x +50 = 8x +60
          -50 -50
-----------------
10x = 8x + 10

 10x = 8x + 10
           -8x -8x
---------------
2x = 10 2x = 10

divide by 2 on both sides x=5 five additional services are needed for the two companies prices to be equal </span>

Answer:

Are needed 5 additional services for the two companies to be the same price

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Let x represent the number of additional services
  • One yard company charges $10x + $50
  • A second company charges $8x + $60

If the two companies charge the same price:

$10x + $50 = $8x + $60

$10x - $8x = $60 - $50

$2x = $10

x = $10/$2

x = 5

Help! I'm a little stumped when it comes to variables in matrices. An explanation would be super rad!

Answer:

30

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the determinant of a 3x3 matrix, you can use this method. (See picture.)

Start with the first number in the top row, and block off the row and column.  A 2x2 matrix will be left.  Find the determinant of this 2x2 matrix, and multiply it by the number in the top row.

Repeat for the other two numbers in the top row.  Add the first result, subtract the second, and add the third.

det A = -2 [(3)(-5) − (a)(0)] − 2 [(0)(-5) − (a)(0)] + b [(0)(0) − (3)(0)]

det A = -2 (3)(-5) − 0 + 0

det A = 30

Write the following equation in slope intercept form. y – 3 = -2 (x -5)
Phantasy [73]
This equation is currently in Point Slope Form. You can easily convert this form to Y Slope Intercept by following these steps.

Add 3 to both sides.

y = -2(x-2)

Simplify.

y = -2x + 4
