Answer:
Explanation:
Work backward:
1. 2x + 23 = 30
Start:
Multiply the equation by 2:
Subtract 30 from both sides
- 2x - 30 = 7 - 30
- 2x - 30 = -23
Add 23 and 30 to both sides:
2. 3x + 19.5 = 30
Start:
Add 6.5 to both sides:
Multiply by 3:
Distributive property:
3. (10x - 20)/ 5 = 3
Start:
Multiply by 10:
Subtract 20:
Divide by 5:
Step-by-step explanation:
so we know X= Numbers of Large boxes and Y= Numbers of Small boxes
And we know the large boxes weigh <em>7</em><em>5</em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>pounds</u></em> and the small boxes weigh <em>4</em><em>0</em><em> </em><em><u>pounds</u></em>
So I would have to say the the same except you have to flip the inequality sign like this:
75x + 40y

200
And if that doesnt somehow work and the question is wording it wrong then
My guess for why its wrong us because its not in slope intercept form Although you still can solve for either varible ( x or y) using standard form also.
So to get from standard form to Slope intercept form (y=mx+b) these are the steps:
Ax+by=C
75x + 40y ≤ 200
Turn it into a linear equation.
75x+ 40y =200
In order to go from one form to another, all you have to do is change the order of the given numbers. First you want to move the Ax to the opposite side of the equation, by either adding or subtracting it. At this point your equation will be set up By = -Ax + C. Then you want to divide the B from the By and the rest of the equation. Therefore you will have y = - Ax/B + C/B. This is the same thing as the slope-intercept form, just a few of the letters are different.
40y=-75x+200 first subtract 75x
y=−1.875×+5 then dived every varible (everything) by 40. and you have your Linear eqaution.
And your second question would be <em><u>A</u></em><em><u>.</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>>The number of boxes must be a whole number.</u></em><em><u> </u></em>
Because you cannot split boxes in half or in any quarter in a real life scenario.
Answer:
R290.1
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x = charge before he put his prices up
New charge = R320
Percentage increase in price = 7%
x + 7% of x = 320
x + 0.07 * x = 320
x + 0.07x = 320
1.07x = 320
x = 320/1.07
x = 299.06542056074
Approximately
x = R290.1
Charge before he put his prices up = R290.1
Answer:
x = 50
Step-by-step explanation:
add all terms and set sum equal to 360
the 'hint' of (n-2)180 determines how many degrees there are inside the polygon; if 'n' equals the number of sides and the polygon has 4 sides then sum of interior angles is (4-2)180 or 2x180 which is 360
x + 10 + 3x + x + 2x = 360
combine like terms to get: 7x + 10 = 360
7x = 350
x = 50
