Answer:
(x-3) years
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that
Age of Jonathan= x years
Sage is 7 years older than Jonathan
It means
Age of Sage=(x+7) years
We have to find the age of Sage 10 years ago.
10 Years ago,
Age of Jonathan=(x-10) years
Age of Sage=(x+7-10) years
Age of Sage=(x-3) years
Hence, 10 years ago, age of Sage =(x-3) years
Multiply both sides by 2 to clear the fraction.
-3x + 6 <= 24
subtract 6 from both sides.
-3 x <= 18
divide both sides by -3, since you're dividing an inequality by a negative number you have to change the direction of the inequality sign.
x >= -6
The answer is <span>a. $1.75 + $0.25x ≤ $15; x ≤ 53 miles
</span>
x - the number of miles
C - the cab charge
<span>A cab charges $1.75 for the flat fee and $0.25 for each mile: C = 1.75 + 0.25x.
</span><span>Eddie has $15 to spend. So, he cannot spend more than 15 on the cab and the maximum amount he can spend is 15. Therefore:
</span>1.75 + 0.25x ≤ 15
Now, let's solve it:
0.25x ≤ 15 - 1.75
0.25x ≤ 13.25
x ≤ 13.25 / 0.25
x ≤ 53
The answer would be C. 5(5) + 2(2) = 29
(5) + 4(2) = 13
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>Amanda had to give away 8.75% </em><em>of</em><em> $65,000.</em>
So:
(8.75÷100) × 65,000
= $5687.5 of tax
