Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

-2x- 4 + 5x = 8

Collect like terms

-2x + 5x = 8 +4( when a variable crosses over equality sign it becomes either negative or positive depending on the sign)

3x = 12

Divide via by coefficient of x

X = 12/3

= 4

Stefan sells Jim a bicycle for $175 and a helmet for $17. The total cost for Jim is 160% of what Stefan spent originally to buy
Nady [450]

Answer:

Stefan spend $120 originally.

Stefan made $72 by selling bicycle and helmet to Jim.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Cost of bicycle = $175

Cost of Helmet = $17

Percent of total cost of Jim = 160% of original cost of Stefan

We need to find the Amount Stefan spend originally and money he made by selling the bicycle and helmet to Jim.

Solution:

Let the Amount Stefan spend originally be 'x'.

Total Cost of Jim is equal to sum of Cost of bicycle and Cost of Helmet.

framing in equation form we get;

Total Cost of Jim = 175+17 =\$192

Now we know that;

Total Cost of Jim is equal to 160% of  Amount Stefan spend originally.

framing in equation form we get;

192 = \frac{160}{100}\times x\\\\192 =1.6x

Dividing both side by 1.6 we get;

\frac{192}{1.6}=\frac{1.6x}{1.6}\\\\x= \$120

Hence Stefan spend $120 originally.

Now we can say that;

Money Stefan made is equal to Money Stefan spend originally minus Total Cost of Jim.

framing in equation form we get;

Money Stefan made = 192-120 =\$72

Hence Stefan made $72 by selling bicycle and helmet to Jim.

For any integers x and y, min(x, y) and max(x, y) denote the minimum and the maximum of x and y, respectively. For example, min(
Annette [7]

Answer:

min(10,w)=\left \{ {{w} \quad\text{for } w

Step-by-step explanation:

No value of w is given, so we can only tell you the meaning of <em>min(10, w)</em>:

When w < 10, min(10, w) is w.

When w ≥ 10, 10 is the smaller of the two values, so min(10, w) = 10.
