First, write put the information into an equation
2*(x+9) = 3*(x-7)
distribute the 2 and 3
2x + 18 = 3x - 21
Combine like terms (Xs and munbers) (in this case, it's easier to add 15 to both sides and subtract 2x from both sides so both sides end up being positive)
33 = x
x=33
243.875 to the nearest tenth place is 243.9
Y=-3x+1
So the answer is A. All you're doing is moving the 3x to the opposite side, and because your switching the side, you need to switch the sign. So it's a negative 3x after you solve for y. Solving for y(or any letter) is just getting that letter alone on one side of the equal sign.
Answer: C
Step-by-step explanation: Divide the mass value by 35.274
Answer: A company saves $134.38 by choosing to make 50 of Box 2 instead of Box 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi, to answer this question we have to calculate the surface area of both boxes.
<em>Surface area (A) = 2wl + 2lh + 2hw,
</em>
Where w is width, l is length , and h is height.
- Box 1 = A = 2(6x20) + 2( 20x4) + 2 (4 x 6) =2 (120)+ 2 (80)+ 2(24) =448 in2
- Box 2 = A = 2 (4x15)+ 2(15x8)+ 2(8x4) = 2(60)+2(120)+2(32)=424 in2
Since 1 inch = 0.0833333 foot
- Box 1 = 448 in2 x 0,0833333 =37.34 ft2
- Box 2= 424 in2 x 0,0833333 =35.19 ft2
Since the material used to make a storage box costs $1.25 per square foot.
- Box 1 =37.34 ft2 x1.25 = $ 46.675
- Box 2= 35.19 ft2 x 1.25 =$43.98
Since 50 of each are made:
- Box 1 = $ 46.675 x50 =2,333.750
- Box 2= $43.98 x50 =2,199.37
Subtracting both costs:
2,333.750(1) - 2,199.37(2) = $134.38
