Answer:

x = 77,  x = -77

Step-by-step explanation:

|x| – 17 = 60

Add 17 to each side

|x| – 17+17 = 60+17

|x|  = 77

The absolute value equation has two solutions, one positive and one negative

x = 77,  x = -77

What is an equation of the line that passes through the point (2, 4 and is perpendicular to the line whose equation is 3y = 6x 3
Maru [420]
Perpendicular line always have slopes that are negative reciprocals of one another.  Mathematically,

m1*m2=-1

So to be perpendicular to the line given, let's rearrange it to the point slope form of a line...

3y=6x ?3 (not sure what you wanted to type there)

anyway isolating y by dividing both side by three will leave 2x where 2 is the slope.

So for the other line to be perpendicular, m*2=-1, m=-1/2, now we have:

y=-x/2 +b, we can now you the point given to solve for b

4=-2/2 +b

4=-1+b

b=5 so

y=-x/2 +5 or more neatly

y=(10-x)/2

To rent a certain meeting room a college charges a reservation fee of $43 an additional fee of $8.70 per hour. The history club
Gekata [30.6K]

We have an initial value of $43 and every hour the price of the reservation increases $8.70, then, the function that determinates the price for the meeting room is

P(t)=43+8.7t

The history club have a limit value that is $77.80, then, to find the amount of hours they can spend at the meeting room we just need to solve the following inequality:

77.8\ge43+8.7t

Solving for t:

\begin{gathered} 77.8\ge43+8.7t \\ 34.8\ge8.7t \\ 4\ge t \end{gathered}

The maximum amount of hours they can spend in the meeting room is 4 hours.

28 children will attend the birthday party if each child gets 2 party favors and there are 14 favors in each box how many boxes
dezoksy [38]
Hello!

So if each box has 14 favors, what we need to do is add until we have enough, or more than enough for each of the children that will be at the party to get two of them.

So to start, 14+14=28. There are 28 children going, but each child must have two favors, not one. So, we simply add on two more boxes. 28+14=42, 42+14=56. So, we need 56 favors for each child to get two. 

You could multiply to make this problem faster, but adding works out easier in my head. Sorry to drag it out!

So to make it simple, you need four boxes of favors for each child to get two.

Hope this helps, have an awesome day!

A Family purchased tickets to the movies in spent a total of $40.75. The family purchase five tickets there was a $.90 processi
muminat

Answer:

$7.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Total amount spent on the ticket   = $40.75

Number of ticket purchased  = 5

Processing fee per ticket  = $0.90

Unknown:

Cost of each ticket = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we need to find the processing fee for the 5 tickets purchase;

      Processing fee = number ticket x processing fee per ticket

      Processing fee  = 5 x 0.9  = $4.5

Now, the real cost a ticket = $40.75  - $4.5  = $36.25

So, cost per ticket is;

        Cost  = \frac{36.25}{5}   = $7.25
