Ok, basically if you want to find when both equations are equal just make them equal to each other. 0.925x^2 - 4x + 20 = -1.125x^2 + 6x + 40.
From there use algebraic steps to find out what x is ( the break - even point ).
0.925x^2 - 4x + 20 = -1.125x^2 + 6x + 40
0.855625x - 4x + 20 = 1.265625x + 6x + 40
-0.41x - 4x + 20 = 6x + 40
-4.41x + 20 = 6x + 40
20 = 10.41x + 40
-20 = 10.41x
-1.92122958694 = x
Rounded to the nearest tenth it's -1.9 = x.
Tell me if I got something wrong :)
Answer:
x = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
-4(x-3) = 20
-4x + 12 = 20
^ Here, Glendon added 12 to 20 instead of subtracting. Her equation was not balanced.
-4x = 8
x = -2
2/7 = x/10
cross multiply:
10 * 2 = 20
7 * x = 7x
7x = 20
x = 2.857
Answer:
B. 1,4
Step-by-step explanation:
1. substitute 4x for y in the second equation since we know y=4x(to find x)
6x-4(4x)=-10
2.solve for x
6x-4(4x)=-10
-4•4x=-16x
6x-16x=-10
6x-16x=-10x
-10x=-10
-10x/-10=-10/-10
x=1
3.substitute 1 for x in either equation(since x=1)to find y
y=4(1)
y=4
x,y=1,4
hope this helps!
Answer:
25 students peer teacher, 22 students per tutor, 4 tutors for 81 students
Step-by-step explanation:
You need to find the unit rate,
for the teachers, to find the unit rate would be 125 divided by 5. For tutors it would be 88 divided by 4.
Then to find how many tutors you need for 81 students you would need 4 tutors because you want to divide 81 by the unit rate we got (22), and since the answer would be a decimal (3.68.....) you would need to round the whole number up to four because you cant have a decimal of a person.
