You need to distribute the numerical factors for each term in the parenthesis:

\dfrac{-1}{5}(5x+20)-\dfrac{1}{4}(4x-28) = \dfrac{-1}{5}\cdot 5x + \dfrac{-1}{5}\cdot 20 + \dfrac{-1}{4} \cdot 4x + \dfrac{-1}{4} \cdot (-28)

This equals

-x-4-x+7 = -2x+3

The ratio of taxes to profits is 7:3. Find the amount of taxes if the taxes and profits total $1000.
Masteriza [31]

Answer:

$700

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The ratio of taxes to profits is 7:3.

The taxes and profits total $1000.

Question asked:

Amount of taxes = ?

Solution:

Let ratios = x

And amount of taxes = 7x

Then amount of profit = 3x

Sum of amount of taxes and profits = $1000.(given)

                                                           = 7x + 3x = 1000\\= 10x = 1000\\

by dividing both side by 10

                                                         x = 100

Thus, amount of taxes = 7x = 7\times100 = 700

Thus, amount of profits = 3x = 3\times100 = 300

IRINA_888 [86]
In multiplying fractions, you multiply the numerators and denominators.
51 / 2 * 21 / 3
can be reduced as

(17 / 2) * (21 / 1)
357 / 2 --> This is the answer based on the given.

Assume that its a mixed fraction:
5 1/2 * 2 1/3
11/2 * 7/3
= 77 /6

Need help with this problem choices: fallrisenot fallinteger range valuesinteger domain values
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

A discrete function is a relation where the domain and the range take a specific discrete set of values and not the whole set of the real numbers.

In this case, it's okay to model the scenario with a line because all of the points will fall on the line. Only points corresponding to the integer domain values, however, actually represent the scenario.

Basically, a linear function that represents this situation serves as a prediction model to generalize this type of situation, but for this case, just the value inside the domain makes sense to this particular case.
