Answer:

10x + 8y ≥ 400

Step-by-step explanation:

x equals the number of hours spent working at the grocery store

she earns $10 an hour thus we use 10x

y equals the number of hours she spends working at the restaurant.

she earns $8 an hour thus we use 8y

10x +8y represent the the money she makes in a week combined.

we use greater the "≥" sign because its an estimate of how much she makes. Lexie might have other sources of income. Finally $400 is about how much she makes from the two jobs a week.

Final answer 10x + 8y ≥ 400

Answer:

The expected loss is $275 million.

Step-by-step explanation:

Expected loss can be determined as the sum of the product of each possible loss by the its probability of occurence. In this situation, there are only two possible losses listed since the probability of no loss doesn't add any value to the expected loss and should be disregarded.

Expected loss (in millions) = EL

EL = (300*0.25)+(800*0.25)\\EL = 275

The expected loss is $275 million.

You have to use the distributive property, therefore you get 2x+13/3.

The next step is to do 2 x 5 because they gave us a number for the variable x. Then you have to do 2 x 13 which gives us 26.

10+26=36 and 36/3=12, hope I helped, Have a nice day! :)

A cell phone plan costs $20 a month and includes 200 free minutes. Each additional minute costs 5 cents. Assume that you use you
Korolek [52]

Answer:

The total cost C  = $10 + $0.05·x

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are

The cost of the cell phone plan per month = $20

The number of minutes of free calls that one can make in a month = 200 minutes

The cost of additional minutes of cell phone call = 5 cent

5 cents to a dollar = $0.05

The total number of minutes of calls made in a month = x

The time duration of a person's usage of the cell phone in a month > 200 minutes

The total cost C of a person's usage per month is given by;

C = $20 + $0.05 × (x - 200) = $20 + 0.05·x - $10

C = $10 + $0.05·x

Where x > 200.
