Video streaming company A charges a one-time $40 membership fee and $2 per video stream. Video streaming company B charges a one

-time $20 membership fee and $4 per video stream.
Let the variable s represent the amount of videos streamed and let the variable c represent the cost.

For how many video streams will the cost be the same for both companies?

Which system of equations can be used to solve this problem?



{c=40s+2
c=20s+4

{c=40+2s
c=20+4s

{c=42s
c=24s

{c=40−2s
c=20−4s

Let's begin ! ^_^

You have got informations in your problem that you just have to translate in a "mathematic language".

Company A :
"$40 membership fee and $2 per video stream."

Thanks to that, you can guess :
c = 40 + 2s

Now let's do the same thing to the company B.

Company B :
"charges a one-time $20 membership fee and $4 per video stream."

Therefore, c = 20 + 4s.

I think you have guessed !! =D And yes the system of equation that you have to solve and you're looking for is :

{c=40+2s ( Option B)
c=20+4s.

Second step : For how many video streams will the cost be the same for both companies?

We just have to solve the system :) And there is only one variable, the letter "s".

We know that we have to find equal costs as it is said in the question " the cost be the same for both companies", so :

=> 40 + 2s = 20 +4s
=> 4s - 2s = 40 - 20
=> 2s = 20
=> s = 20/2
=> s = 10

Verification :

Company A :
=> 40 + 2s = 40 + 2*10 = 40 + 20 =60.

Company B :

=> 20 + 4s = 20 + 4*10 = 20 + 40 = 60

As you have seen, the costs are the same for both companies.

We can say that as a conclusion for 10 video streams, the cost will be the same for both companies.

In short, the answer would be : 10.

Let me give you an advice : Usually the word "per" means a multiplication is the mathematic language.

Hope this helps !

Answer:

y = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is an isosceles triangle, Angle B and Angle C are equivalent. We can use this to find x

3x = 75

x = 25

Angles in a triangle add up to 180, so knowing the measure of Angle B and Angle C, we can find the measure of Angle A

Angle A = 180-(75+75)

Angle A = 180-150

Angle A = 30

We know Angle A = 4y+10

4y + 10 = 30

4y = 20

y = 5

Which expression finds the measure of an angle that is coterminal with a 300° angle?
icang [17]
The expression that gives an angle that is coterminal with 300 is 300-720. Two angles are said to be coterminal if when they are drawn in a standard position, their terminal sides are on the same location. The expression gives an angle of 420 where when it is drawn the terminal sides are on the same location with the 300.

Answer:

(2,10) or x=2 y=10

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>1. Pick one of your equations and solve for a variable. I chose the first equation and solved for x.</em>

5x-2y=-10 (Move the -2y to the other side, you need to do the opposite so you add +2y to -10)

5x=2y-10 (Divide the 5 from the x)

x=2/5y-2

<em>2. Now take what you got for x and plug it into the x variable on the other equation.</em>

3(2/5y-2)+6y=66 (Multiply 3 by 2/5y and -2)

6/5y-6=6y=66 (Move the -6 to the other side and add 6/5y to 6y)

36/5y=72 (Since the number on the y is a fraction, you must do the opposite to the other side)

y=72/1 x 5/36 (Flip your fraction and multiply it by the 72)

y=10

<em>3. Now that you have one of the variables solved for, in order to get the other we must plug in what we have to the first equation.</em>

5x-2(10)=-10 (Multiple 2 by 10)

5x-20=-10 (Move -20 to the other side, since you do the opposite add +20 to the -10)

5x=10 ( Divide 10 by 5)

x= 2

<em>4. If needed, plug in the values of x and y to check your solution.</em>

Hope this could help! :)
