First translate the English phrase "Four times the sum of a number and 15 is at least 120" into a mathematical inequality.
"Four times..." means we're multiplying something by 4.
"... the sum of a number and 15..." means we're adding an unknown and 15 and then multiplying the result by 4.
"... is at least 120" means when we substitute the unknown for a value, in order for that value to be in the solution set, it can only be less than or equal to 120.
So, the resulting inequality is 4(x + 15) ≤ 120.
Simplify the inequality.
4(x + 15) ≤ 120
4x + 60 ≤ 120 <-- Using the distributive property
4x ≤ 60 <-- Subtract both sides by 60
x ≤ 15 <-- Divide both sides by 4
Now that we have the inequality in a simplified form, we can easily see that in order to be in the solution set, the variable x can be no bigger than 15.
In interval notation it would look something like this:
[15, ∞)
In set builder notation it would look something like this:
{x | x ∈ R, x ≤ 15}
It is read as "the set of all x, such that x is a member of the real numbers and x is less than or equal to 15".
Answer:
You have to divide the total sales by 8 percent. 32,000/ 0.8 =40,000
So your answer is 40,000.
Step-by-step explanation:
Lets say a=2 and b=5 you now plug in you numbers to get 3x2x5 we know 3x2=6 so now take 6 and multiply it by 5 so 6x5=30 you can also set this equal to 0 3ab=0 then divide by either a or b ill show you both if you divide by a you are left with 3b=a if you divide by b than you get 3a=b
The y-intercept of the equation is the value of the variable y or in this case, f(x), when x is equated to zero. Out of all the choices presented in this item, if x is equated to zero, the first two terms will be equal to zero, leaving the third term only for the numerical value of f(x).
From the choices presented, the answer would be f(x) = -x2 + 2x + 4. Thus, the answer is the third choice, C.
