Eight less a number is less than or equal to seventeen

Mathematics
1 answer:
allsm [11]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

n ≥ -9  

Step-by-step explanation:

Let n = the number

8 <em>less than</em> a number means "n – 8", but

8 <em>less</em> a number means "8 – n," so

8 – n ≤ 17     Subtract 8 from each side

    -n ≤ 9      Multiply each side by -1

    n ≥ -9

<em>Note</em>: When we multiply by a negative number, we must reverse the inequality.

<em>Check:</em>

Try n = -8.

8 – (-8) ≤ 17

  8 + 8 ≤ 17

       16 ≤ 17

<em>True</em>.

2 different companies offer online subscriptions. Company A charges $75 upfront and $20 per month. Company B does not charge the
ki77a [65]

Answer:

15 months

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that company A charges  \$75 upfront and \$20 per month and company B does not charge the upfront fee but charges \$35 per month.

Let after n months both the company charges the same amount.

Total charges by the company A=\$ (75+n\times 20) and total charges by the company B=\$ (n\times 35).

Now, from the given condition both the charges are equal, so

75+n\times 20=n\times 35 \\\Rightarrow 75= 35 n - 20 n\\\Rightarrow 75= 15 n \\\Rightarrow n= \frac {75}{5} \\\Rightarrow n= 15

Hence, after 15 months both the company charges the same amount.
