Edited : I apologise I misunderstood the question.
You can solve the equation.
The answer is b.
This is because the line is sloping downwards, and so y = -1
Answer:
$350,000
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's define:
- s: amount of short-range missiles produced
- m: amount of medium-range missiles produced
- l: amount of long-range missiles produced
From the total production and the ratios we can write the following equations:
s + m + l = 3000
s/m = 3/3 = 1 = m/s
s/l = 3/4 or l/s = 4/3
Dividing the first equation by s, we get:
s/s + m/s + l/s = 3000/s
1 + 1 + 4/3 = 3000/s
10/3 = 3000/s
s = 3000*3/10 = 900
m = 900
l = 4/3*900 = 1200
From the money that the countries plans to use and each missile cost, we can write the following equation:
200,000*s + 300,000*m + cost*l = 870,000,000
Replacing with previous result:
200,000*900 + 300,000*900 + cost*1200 = 870,000,000
cost = (870,000,000 - 200,000*900 - 300,000*900)/1200 = 350,000
Answer:
x<8 or x>13
Step-by-step explanation:
x-5 < 3
x < 3 + 5
x <8
OR
x – 5 > 8
x > 8 +5
x >13
combining the two, the combined answer for x is
x<8 or x>13
2x+8=20
2x=20-8
2x=12
12/2=x
6=x
