Yes he will be able to buy the game that is $50 because: 14.25 + 3.75y + 6.50x = 50 14.25 + 3.75(3) + 6.50(4) = 50 14.25 + 11.25 + 26 = 50 51.50 = 50

Answer:  YES, Geoffrey can buy the video game.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that Geoffrey is trying to earn $50 to buy a video game. He has saved $14.25. He earns $3.75 per hour cleaning windows with his uncle and he earns $6.50 per hour working at the grocery store.

We are to find whether he can buy the video game if he works with his uncle for 3 hours and at the grocery store for 4 hours.

We will be using the following inequality :

3.75y + 6.50z + 14.25 ≥ 50.

According to the given information, we have

y = 3  and  z = 4.

Therefore, we get

 3.75y + 6.50z + 14.25

= 3.75 ×3 + 6.50 × 4 + 14.25

= 11.25 + 26 + 14.25

= 37.25 + 14.25

= 51.50 > 50.

Therefore, Geoffrey can buy the video game.

If the product of a number and -4 is subtracted from the number, the result is 3 more than the number. Find the number
lesya [120]

Answer: The number is 0.75 or 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

let x = the number.

Now set up an equation: The product of a number (x) and -4 = -4x. So -4x is subtracted from the number - x.     x-(-4x)

Then, that equals 3 more than the number (x) = x+3

So the equation is x-(-4x)=x+3.

Then, solve the equation!

x-(-4x)=x+3

x+4x=x+3  (Distribute the negative to the parentheses)

5x=x+3  (Combine like terms)

4x=3  (Get the Xs on one side by subtracting x from both sides)

x=0.75 or 3/4  (divide by the coefficiant, 4, on both sides)
