Answer:
91
Step-by-step explanation:
Because the equation is equal to 91
So the first thing you want to do when faced with two fractions with different denominators (when subtracting or adding) is to make the denominators the same. So for this equation they would turn out to be p+10/16=15/16 (because 16 is the lowest common denominator, 8 times two) so then you want to subtract 10/16 from 15/16 to isolate the variable (p) which would get:
p=5/16
This is the final answer because it cannot be simplified.
Hope this helps!
Part A: Chose some value for x, that means any amount of books to print for example 100 books, so x=100
Replace x=100 in C(x) and solve:
C(100)=3.5*100+1200=1550
Part B: Replace C(x) by 1900 and solve for x from the given equation:
1900=3.5x+1200
3.5x=1900-1200
x=700/3.5= 200
Part C: the statement C(20)=1270 means that 1270 is the cost for printing 20 books.
Part E: C(40.5)=1341.75 I think this statement is incorrect given the context because x means number of books to print so this value must be an integer number.
