Answer:

  a)  |n -11| = 5

  b)  n ∈ {6, 16}

Step-by-step explanation:

The wording of the question is ridiculous. We assume it is intended to read, "The distance between two numbers is 5. One of the numbers is 11. What are the possibilities for the other?"

a) The distance between a number (n) and 11 can be written as ...

  |n -11|

Since we want that distance to be 5, we can write the equation ...

  |n -11| = 5

__

b) The equation resolves to two:

  • n -11 = 5
  • n -11 = -5

Adding 11 to both sides of both equations gives ...

  • n = 16
  • n = 6

The two solutions are n=6 and n=16.

<em>Comment on the question statement</em>

Increasingly, we see curriculum materials written in Pidgin English or where the words have a meaning different from that understood by a native English speaker. It appears you are the lucky recipient of such materials, so must do occasional "interpretation". Here, it seems that "two time a number" is intended to mean "two numbers."

BRAINLIEST ANSWER (please do it right)
Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

55 performances

Step-by-step explanation:

The first equation will be the total cost. The total cost has $88,000 already and then $5,900 is added with each performance. So the equation would be 88,000+5,900x because x will represent the number of performances.

y = 88,000 + 5,900x

The next equation will be how much the performances earn. If they earn $7,500 with each performance then the equation will be 7,500x, with x representing the number of performances

y = 7,500x

Now set the equations equal to each other and solve for x

7,500x = 88,000 + 5,900x

1,600x = 88,000

x = 55

They need to have 55 performances for the cost and the revenue to break even.

Answer:

C. - 132x + 43y

Step-by-step explanation:

10x + 41y - 142x + 2y

Rearrange and put like terms together.

10x - 142x + 41y + 2y

= 10x - 142x

= - 132x

= 41y + 2y

= 43y

Now put all values together.

-132x + 43y
