Answer:
The maximum number of gumballs you can buy is 10
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x ---->represents the number of gumballs you can buy
we know that
The number of gumballs you can buy multiplied by it cost must be less than or equal to $2.50 (two dollars and 50 cents)
so
The inequality that represent this situation is
solve for x
Divide both sides by 0.25
therefore
The maximum number of gumballs you can buy is 10
No solution, because the discriminant is less than zero. hope this helps
Answer: x=2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
|2x - 3|= 4x - 1
2x-3=4x-1
2x=4x+2
-2x=2
x=-1
4(-1)-1=
-4-1=-5 ==> Absolutes values can't equal a negative number
-(2x-3)=4x-1
-2x+3=4x-1
3=6x-1
6x=4
x=4/6
x=2/3
