Pepsi [2]

The larger number is (-7+14)/2 = 3.5.

The smaller number is (-7-14)/2 = -10.5.

_____

The two equations a+b=-7, a-b=14 can be solved to get these results. It is genrally convenient to solve them by adding one to the other, or subtracting one from the other.

Two payment options to rent a car: You can pay $20 a day plus 25¢ a mile (Option A) or pay $10 a day plus 50¢ a mile (Option B).
BaLLatris [955]

You must drive more than 40 miles to make option A the cheaper plan

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Two payment options to rent a car

Let "x" be the number of miles driven in one day

<em><u>You can pay $20 a day plus 25¢ a mile (Option A)</u></em>

25 cents is equal to 0.25 dollars

OPTION A :  20 + 0.25x

<em><u>You pay $10 a day plus 50¢ a mile (Option B)</u></em>

50 cents equal to 0.50 dollars

Option B: 10 + 0.50x

<em><u>For what amount of daily miles will option A be the cheaper plan ?</u></em>

For option A to be cheaper, Option A must be less than option B

Option A < Option B

20 + 0.25x < 10 + 0.50x

Solve the inequality

Add -0.50x on both sides

20 +0.25x -0.50x < 10 + 0.50x - 0.50x\\\\20 - 0.25x < 10

Add - 20 on both sides,

20 - 0.25x - 20 < 10 - 20\\\\-0.25x < -10

\mathrm{Multiply\:both\:sides\:by\:-1\:\left(reverse\:the\:inequality\right)}

0.25x > 10

Divide both sides by 0.25

x > 40

Thus you must drive more than 40 miles to make option A the cheaper plan

What is the equation of the line that is parallel to y-3x=2 and that passes through (6,1)?
Rudik [331]

Slope-intercept form:  y = mx + b

(m is the slope, b is the y-intercept or the y value when x = 0 --> (0, y) or the point where the line crosses through the y-axis)

For lines to be parallel, they need to have the same slope.

y - 3x = 2      Add 3x on both sides to change the equation to slope-intercept form

y - 3x + 3x = 2 + 3x

y = 3x + 2   The slope is 3, so the parallel line's slope is also 3.

Now that you know the slope, substitute/plug it into the equation

y = mx + b

y = 3x + b    To find "b", plug in the point (6, 1) into the equation, then isolate/get the variable "b" by itself

1 = 3(6) + b  

1 = 18 + b     Subtract 18 on both sides to get "b" by itself

1 - 18 = 18 - 18 + b

-17 = b

y = 3x - 17    Your answer is the 1st option

18.84

Since the formula of circumference is C = 2 pi r or C = pi times diameter, you can conclude that the circumference is 18.84.

Assuming that pi is 3.14 in this case rather than the full pi or just in terms of pi.

Hope this helps!
