Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation

Because 3x7 equals 21 than two people got steak so 21 plus 20 equals 41 and more would not be 41

Answer:

To answer the problem above we let x be the number of people who prefers salad and y be the number of people who chose steak. For lunch they will be spending $41. That is,

                                  7x + 10y = 41

Now, for dinner they will be spending $51. That is,

                                9x + 12y = 51

The values of x and y from both equations are 3 and 2, respectively. Therefore, 3 people will choose a salad

Answer:

Ella should not have included 5 in absolute value portion of the equation

Step-by-step explanation:

Because -1 is a negative number in order to find the true distance between A and B you have to make it positive.

But, because Ella included 5 in the absolute value portion of the equation it messed up the answer.

mixer [17]

Answer:

1) 500     2) $ 1000 debt    3) $350    4) $2500 debt

Step-by-step explanation:

profit = .5x -250  

1)  O      = .5x -250

250 = .5x

500 = x      number to break even

2)   f(900) =  .5 (900) -250 =  $200

       from the graph  g(200) = total debt = $1000

3)   f(x) = -75  = .5x-250    results in    x = $ 350

4)    f(500) = .5(500) - 250 = 0  

      from the graph, this corresponds to total debt g (f(500) = $2500 debt

If n is even, which represents the first consecutive even integer after n?
kow [346]

Answer: n+2


Step-by-step explanation:

1. By definition, an even number is that number that can be divided by two.

2. Therefore, keeping this definition on mind, if you have an even number n, the next consecutive even integer after it can be obtained by adding 2.

3. Then, you can conclude the expression that represents  the first consecutive even integer after n is:

n+2
