Answer: -11
Step-by-step explanation:
+(-8) can be simplified to -8 because when you multiply a positive sign by a negative sign, the outcome is a negative sign. So your problem is -3-8= and the answer is -11 because when two numbers with the same sign are subtracted/added by each other, the numbers just get added and the sign stays the same. If you're still confused, use a number line. Hope this helps!
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We have 2 linear equations, and in both, the amount of merchandise you would have to purchase is "x", the unknown. We are asked to find that value of x.
The first equation is
C(x) = .30x + 90, which says that the cost of this plan is a fixed $90, and you pay 30% of the manufacturer's cost, x.
The second equation is
C(x) = .80x + 40, which says that the cost of this plan is a fixed $40, and you pay 80% of the manufacturer's cost, x.
If we want to know when the cost of these 2 are equal to each other, we set the equations equal to each other and solve for x:
.3x + 90 = .8x + 40 so
-.5x = -50 so
x = $100
The cost for each plan will be the same at this value of x, but we will plug in 100 for x in each just to make sure we did it right:
C(100) = .3(100) + 90
C(100) = 30 + 90
C(100) = 120 and
C(100) = .8(100) + 40
C(100) = 80 + 40
C(100) = 120
What are the inequalities to choose from?
