Answer:

b = 28

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

a(7x+2)=bx+8

=> 7ax + 2a = bx + 8

in both the equation there is a term containing x and a term not containing x.

since value of both equation is equal. hence

term containing x on both side will be equal to each and

term independent of x will be equal in both the equation

thus

7ax = bx

2a = 8

=> a = 8/2 = 4

now, plugging a = 4 in 7ax = bx

7*4x = bx

=> b = 7*4x/x = 28.

Thus, value of b is 28.

Ymorist [56]
She will need to cut 26.6 haircuts a month a location A to break even (1200/45 = 26.6) so roughly 27 haircuts to make a profit


She will need to cut 30 haircuts at location B to break even (1800/60 = 30) and 31 hair cuts to see a profit.


She will need to cut 30.67 haircuts at location A and 33 haircuts at location B to make the same profit at either location (Roughly $180).


30.67 x 45 = 1380.15 - 1200 = 180

33 x 60 = 1980 - 1800 = 180

Answer:

y = 15x + 20 or 15x - y + 20 = 0

x = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Line is passing through the points (0, 20) & (2, 50)

Slope of line = (50 - 20)/(2 - 0) = 30/2 = 15

Equation of line

y - 20 = 15(x - 0)

y - 20 = 15x

y = 15x + 20 or 15x - y + 20 = 0

Plug y = 185 in above equation, we find:

185 = 15x + 20

185 - 20 = 15x

165 = 15x

x = 165/15

x = 11
