Answer:

x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

2.5x + 10 = x - 0.5

2.5x - x + 10 = - 0.5

1.5x + 10 = - 0.5

1.5x = - 10 - 0.5

1.5x = - 10.5

x = - 105/15

x = 7

Answer: 7

Step-by-step explanation:

2.5x+10=x-0.5\\2.5x-x+10=-0.5\\1.5x=-0.5-10\\1.5x=-10.5\\x=\frac{10.5}{1.5}\\ x=7

Mr. miller has $25 in his savings and wants to put $10 every week into the account. write an equation showing how much money he
iris [78.8K]
The equation you write would be linear, and would be written in slope intercept form y=mx+b. Since Mr. Miller already has $25, we plug that in for "b" in the equation. We plug 10 in for "m", because "x" represents the number of weeks he has been saving. The equation would be y=10x+25. To find how much money Mr. Miller will have in 7 weeks, plug in 7 for x. y=10(7)+25 -> y=70+25 -> y=95 -> $95

lord [1]

Answer:

a) the largest y-intercept is 1

b) 13.5

c) y=x-3

d) 8

Step-by-step explanation:

the question was worded very strangely and I will answer the way I precieved it.

for question d, I simply considered the question to be asking what is X when y is 17 and since the equation of that line is 2x-1

Calvin had 30 minutes in time-out. For the first 23 1/3 minutes, Calvin counted spots on the ceiling. For the rest of the time,
scoundrel [369]

Answer: \frac{20}{3}\ minutes or 6 \frac{2}{3}\ minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

For this exercise you can convert the mixed number to an improper fraction:

1. Multiply the whole number part by the denominator of the fraction.

2. Add the product obtained and the numerator of the fraction (This will be the new numerator).

3. The denominator does not change.

Then:

23\frac{1}{3}= \frac{(23*3)+1}{3}= \frac{70}{3}\ minutes

You know that he had 30 minutes in time-out, he counted spots on the ceiling for \frac{70}{3} minutes and the rest of the time he made faces at his stuffed tiger.

Then, in order to calculate the time Calvin spent making faces at his stuffed tiger, you need to subract 30 minutes and \frac{70}{3} minutes:

30\ min-\frac{70}{3}=(\frac{3(30)-70}{3})=\frac{20}{3}\ minutes or 6 \frac{2}{3}\ minutes
