Mrs. Mott called two companies about getting new uniforms for the soccer team. The first company she called charges $70 per unif
Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

For less than 7 uniforms.

Step-by-step explanation:

The first company she called charges $70 per uniform.

So, the cost of x uniforms will be $70x.

The second company she called charges $280 plus $30 per uniform.

So, the cost of x uniform will be $(280 + 30x).

Now, if the total cost of purchasing x number of uniforms from the first company is less than that from the second company then, we can write the inequality equation as  

70x < 280 + 30x

⇒ 70x - 30x < 280

⇒ 40x < 280

⇒ x < 7

Therefore, for less than 7 uniforms the cost from the first company will be less than the cost from the second company. (Answer)

Paul can type 60 words per minute and Jennifer can type 80 words per minute. How does Paul’s typing speed compare to Jennifer’s
yan [13]
I'm not certain how exactly this question is supposed to be answered. 

If it wants a ratio, Paul and Jennifer's speeds would be in a ratio of 3:4.

It also could be Paul types 20 words per minute slower than Jennifer.

It could be Paul types 33% slower than Jennifer.

Another answer could be Paul's typing speed is 3/4ths of Jennifer's typing speed.

Feel free to ask any further questions.

How to solve -8-7x+5=4
Vlad1618 [11]
Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation for example : -8-7x+-5(4)=0 . But the zero turned to -1 because a non zero constant never equals 0,but the problem doesn’t have a solution, but the answer is -1
