Since my answer was deleted here it is:
The variable x represents the cost per pound of meat.
The variable y represents the cost per pound of cheese.
The deli charges $4.50 for a pound of meat.
Have a great day! (this is late but for anyone else who needs it)
You cant simplify that fraction
For
|a|<b
assume
-b<a<b
so
add 5 to both side
|-2-8x|<66
assume
-66<-2-8x<66
add 2 to both sides
-64<-8x<68
divide everyboy by -8, don't forget to flip sign
8>x>-8.5
-8.5<x<8
the solution is all numbers between -8.5 and 8, not including -8.5 and 8
in interval notation: (-8.5,8)
or
S={x|-8.5<x<8}
Answer:
Tia cut a 4-meter 8-centimeter wire into 10 equal pieces. for Jay 10 quarts would be the answer. Step-by-step explanation: He needs x quarts for the inside painting and x + 19 quarts for the outside. These two measures add up to 2x + 19, which equals 107 (quarts) total. The last one is tring A is 35 cm long, string B is 5 times as long as string A, then string B is 35·5=175 cm long. In total both strings have length 35+175=210 cm. The total length of string needed for 17 identical decirative bottes is cm that is 35.7 m.
