Hey! What you can do is plug them in or solve for x.
This is how you solve for x:
since its x is divided by -4 and you want to get x alone you should multiply -4 to the other side and so it would be x = -4*8.
That is -32.
The answer is A!
Hope this helps!

An online furniture store sells chairs for $150 each and tables for $400 each. Every day, the store can ship no more than 30 pie

ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

minimum of 13 chairs must be sold to reach a target of $6500

and a max of 20 chairs can be solved.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Price of chair = $150

Price of table = $400

Let the number of chairs be denoted by c and tables by t,

According to given condition:

t + c = 30 ----------- eq1

t(150) + c(400) = 6500 ------ eq2

Given that:

10 tables were sold so:

t = 10

Putting in eq1

c = 20 (max)

As the minimum target is $6500 so from eq2

10(150) + 400c = 6500

400c = 6500 - 1500

400c = 5000

c = 5000/400

c = 12.5

by rounding off

c = 13

So a minimum of 13 chairs must be sold to reach a target of $6500

i hope it will help you!

Solve for x {x+4]= 6

wlad13 [49]

The solution to the equation x(x+4) = 6 is x = -2 + √10 or x = -2 - √10 after solving with the quadratic formula.

<h3>What is a quadratic equation?</h3>

Any equation of the form $\rm ax^2+bx+c=0$ where x is variable and a, b, and c are any real numbers where a ≠ 0 is called a quadratic equation.
