Ne4ueva [31]3 years ago
3 0
The equation given in the question is
(5x + 2)/2 = 2x - 1
5x + 2 = 2(2x - 1)
5x + 2 = 4x - 2
5x - 4x = - 2 - 2
x = -4
So the value of the unknown variable comes out to be -4. Yes your calculation is correct it seems from the answer that you have given. I hope i have been able to help you in this regard.Only be careful about the cross multiplication part.

aev [14]

Answer: Ruth have to make 7 hats to break even.

Step-by-step explanation:

Break even point is a point where Cost = Revenue.

Let x be the number of hats sold.

Given: Cost of booth = $63

Each hat cost = $10

Selling price for each cost = $19

As per given,

Total cost = Cost of booth+ (Cost of each hat)(Number of hats)

= 63+10x

Total selling price = 19x

For break even,

63+10x=19x

9x=63

x=7

Hence, Ruth have to make 7 hats to break even.

Suppose that y varies inversely as x, and x=9 when y=15. Find the value for k and write the function. Group of answer choices La
Radda [10]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that y varies inversely as x then the equation relating them is

y = \frac{k}{x} ← k is the constant of variation

To find k use the condition that x = 9 when y = 15

15 = \frac{k}{9} ( multiply both sides by 9 )

k = 135

y = \frac{135}{x} ← equation of variation
