Answer:

It would take 5.5 months for the two cable companies to cost the same.

Step-by-step explanation:

50x + 100 = 60x + 45

-45 -45

50x + 55 = 60x

-50x -50x

55 = 10x

/10 /10

x = 5.5

Answer:

5.5 months

Step-by-step explanation:

Let m be the number of months that pass.

We can write an equation to resemble this problem [ 100 + 50m = 45 + 60m ]

Steps to solve:

100 + 50m = 45 + 60m

~Subtract 100 to both sides

50m = -55 + 60m

Subtract 60m to both sides

-10m = -55

~Divide -10 to both sides

m = 5.5

Best of Luck!

Answer:

x = -2

y = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve this algebraically (substitution or elimination) or graphically. I will be using elimination:

Step 1: Add the 2 equations together

-8y = 40

y = -5

Step 2: Plug y into an original equation to find x

-3(-5) + 10x = -5

15 + 10x = -5

10x = -20

x = -2

And we have our final answers!

Dividing complex numbers

Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

DIVIDING COMPLEX NUMBERS

Dividing complex numbers is a little more complicated than addition, subtraction, and multiplication of complex numbers because it is difficult to divide a number by an imaginary number. For dividing complex numbers, we need to find a term by which we can multiply the numerator and the denominator that will eliminate the imaginary part of the denominator so that we end up with a real number in the DENOMINATOR
