We let x be the number of new laptops and y the number of tablets.
The equations that will represent the conditions stated are:
 x + y = 30
 515x + 285y = 11080

Solving for x and y from the equations will yield:

x = 11 and y = 19.

<span>Therefore, the business should buy 11 laptops and 19 tablets.</span>

Let x be the number of new laptops and y be the number of tablets that the company should buy. The equations that best show the given conditions are as follows,
                                   x + y = 30
                                515x + 285y = 11080
Solving simultaneously for the values of x and y gives an answer of x = 11 and y = 19.

Thus, the business should buy 11 laptops and 19 tablets.

Answer:

150 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

let m represent miles

$70 + .70m = $40 + .90m

subtract 40 from each side

$30 + .70m = .90m

subtract .70m from each side

$30 = .20m

divide both sides by .20

150 = m

X-doubling periods
Y-height of bamboo
Y=ab^x

1) make a table of values
X Y
1 5
2 10
3 20

2) write equations and substitute
5=ab^1 —> a=5/b^1 —> a=5/b
10=ab^2

Substitute into second equation

10=(5/b)*b^2
10=5b^2/b
10=5b
b=2

Substitute back in

b=2
10=a*2^2
10=4a
a=5/2

End equation:
Y=5/2*2^x

Answer:

x=141

Step-by-step explanation:

(n-2)•180 = Sum of all the interior angles

n = # of sides

(7-2)•180

5•180

900= Sum of all the interior angles

Add all the angles and equal them to 900

125+122+131+x+7+x+107+x-15=900

Add all the numbers up first on the left side

477+3x=900

3x=423

x=141

Which statement BEST describes the graph of f(x - 6)?
Alex

Answer:

B. f(x) is shifted left by 6 units

Step-by-step explanation:

when we talk about translations, we know they happen along the X axis, y axis or sometimes both, in this case we see that were subtracting x by six units, so we are moving left along the x axis

ways to remember this is:

 -you count up x the RIGHT way going right

 -you count UP y

and of cource by process of ellimination we know that decreasing X goes left and decreasing y goes down

ALSO NOTE: x always goes horizontally and y always goes vertically
