t and $40 dollars a day for each employee. Use the following inequality to determine how many employees the manager can afford for the day at most
40x+80<400
A x>8
B.x>12

Answer:

C.x<8

Step-by-step explanation:

The restaurant manager can spend at most 400 a day for operating costs and payroll.

Operating cost = $80

Per employee cost = $40

Let the number of employees be x.

Then, total employee cost per day = 40 * x

As per the given requirement,

Fixed operating cost + total daily employee cost < 400

Or, 80 + 40x < 400

Simplifying the inequality:

=> 40x < 400 - 80

=> 40x < 320

=> x < 320/40

=> x < 8

What is the gcf of of -9y^2 + 6y

Valentin [98]

Answer:

3y

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the factors of the terms. You need to then figure out how many factors match.

-9y² = -1 · 3 · 3 · y · y

6y = 2 · 3 · y

3y is the greatest common factor.

Answer:

<em>(a) x=2, y=-1</em>

<em>(b) x=2, y=2</em>

<em>(c)</em> $\displaystyle x=\frac{5}{2}, y=\frac{5}{4}$

<em>(d) x=-2, y=-7</em>

<u>Cramer's Rule</u>

It's a predetermined sequence of steps to solve a system of equations. It's a preferred technique to be implemented in automatic digital solutions because it's easy to structure and generalize.

It uses the concept of determinants, as explained below. Suppose we have a 2x2 system of equations like:

$\displaystyle \left \{ {{ax+by=p} \atop {cx+dy=q}} \right.$

We call the determinant of the system

$\Delta=\begin{vmatrix}a &b \\c &d \end{vmatrix}$

We also define:

$\Delta_x=\begin{vmatrix}p &b \\q &d \end{vmatrix}$

And

$\Delta_y=\begin{vmatrix}a &p \\c &q \end{vmatrix}$

The solution for x and y is

$\displaystyle x=\frac{\Delta_x}{\Delta}$

$\displaystyle y=\frac{\Delta_y}{\Delta}$

(a) The system to solve is

$\displaystyle \left \{ {{x+y=1} \atop {x-2y=4}} \right.$

Calculating:

$\Delta=\begin{vmatrix}1 &1 \\1 &-2 \end{vmatrix}=-2-1=-3$

$\Delta_x=\begin{vmatrix}1 &1 \\4 &-2 \end{vmatrix}=-2-4=-6$

$\Delta_y=\begin{vmatrix}1 &1 \\1 &4 \end{vmatrix}=4-3=3$

$\displaystyle x=\frac{\Delta_x}{\Delta}=\frac{-6}{-3}=2$

$\displaystyle y=\frac{\Delta_y}{\Delta}=\frac{3}{-3}=-1$

The solution is x=2, y=-1

(b) The system to solve is

$\displaystyle \left \{ {{4x-y=6} \atop {x-y=0}} \right.$

Calculating:

$\Delta=\begin{vmatrix}4 &-1 \\1 &-1 \end{vmatrix}=-4+1=-3$

$\Delta_x=\begin{vmatrix}6 &-1 \\0 &-1 \end{vmatrix}=-6-0=-6$

$\Delta_y=\begin{vmatrix}4 &6 \\1 &0 \end{vmatrix}=0-6=-6$

$\displaystyle x=\frac{\Delta_x}{\Delta}=\frac{-6}{-3}=2$

$\displaystyle y=\frac{\Delta_y}{\Delta}=\frac{-6}{-3}=2$

The solution is x=2, y=2

(c) The system to solve is

$\displaystyle \left \{ {{-x+2y=0} \atop {x+2y=5}} \right.$

Calculating:

$\Delta=\begin{vmatrix}-1 &2 \\1 &2 \end{vmatrix}=-2-2=-4$

$\Delta_x=\begin{vmatrix}0 &2 \\5 &2 \end{vmatrix}=0-10=-10$

$\Delta_y=\begin{vmatrix}-1 &0 \\1 &5 \end{vmatrix}=-5-0=-5$

$\displaystyle x=\frac{\Delta_x}{\Delta}=\frac{-10}{-4}=\frac{5}{2}$

$\displaystyle y=\frac{\Delta_y}{\Delta}=\frac{-5}{-4}=\frac{5}{4}$

The solution is

$\displaystyle x=\frac{5}{2}, y=\frac{5}{4}$

(d) The system to solve is

$\displaystyle \left \{ {{6x-y=-5} \atop {4x-2y=6}} \right.$

Calculating:

$\Delta=\begin{vmatrix}6 &-1 \\4 &-2 \end{vmatrix}=-12+4=-8$

$\Delta_x=\begin{vmatrix}-5 &-1 \\6 &-2 \end{vmatrix}=10+6=16$

$\Delta_y=\begin{vmatrix}6 &-5 \\4 &6 \end{vmatrix}=36+20=56$

$\displaystyle x=\frac{\Delta_x}{\Delta}=\frac{16}{-8}=-2$

$\displaystyle y=\frac{\Delta_y}{\Delta}=\frac{56}{-8}=-7$

The solution is x=-2, y=-7

Simplify this expression: -2x + 3 – (5 – 6x). Can someone pls explain how to do this dont just give the awnser

Verizon [17]

Answer:

-2x + 3 – (5 – 6x) = 4x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is :

-2x + 3 – (5 – 6x)

We need to simplify the above expression. First opening the brackets.

-2x + 3 – (5 – 6x) = -2x + 3 – 5 + 6x

Taking like terms together,

= -2x+6x + 3 -5

= 4x - 2

So, the simplified expression is 4x - 2.
