If we break the answer down, we can solve this pretty easily.
We can represent Dic's age with x.
Tom's age is 5 MORE (+5) than TWICE (2x) Dic's age (x)
Therefore, our answer is 5+2x (Five more than twice Dic's age)
The correct answer is C: 5+2x
The response is
<span>x greater than or equal to -9
</span>proof
8x - (5x + 4)>= -31, 3x- 4>= -31, 3x >= -27, <span>x>= -27/3= -9
so </span><span>x greater than or equal to -9</span>
<span>Because <span>t <span>is given in years and 1.08 <span>= <span>1 <span>+ <span>0.08, the annual percent increase
<span>is 8%.
To find the monthly percent increase that gives an 8% annual increase,
<span>use the fact that
t =
<span><span><span><span>
<span><span><span><span>and the properties of exponents to rewrite the
model in a form that reveals the monthly growth rate.</span></span></span>
