Answer: see below
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
C(x) = 39 when 0 < x ≤ 1.0
C(x) = 63 when 1.0 < x ≤ 2.0
C(x) = 87 when 2.0 < x ≤ 3.0
C(x) = 111 when 3.0 < x ≤ 4.0
C(x) = 135 when 4.0 < x ≤ 5.0
C(x) = 159 when 5.0 < x ≤ 6.0
Based on the information I provided above, the answers are:
a) x= 0.6, C(x) = 1.0
x = 1.0, C(x) = 39
x = 1.1, C(x) = 63
x = 2.5, C(x) = 87
x = 3.0, C(x) = 87
x = 4.8, C(x) = 135
x = 5.0, C(x) = 135
x = 5.3, C(x) = 159
b) If C(x) = 87, then 2.0 < x ≤ 3.0
c) Domain (all possible x-values): 0 < x ≤ 6.0
d) Range (all possible y-values): {39, 63, 87, 111, 135, 159}
20% of 65 = 65 * 1/5, which is 13. so 20% of 65 is $13. so a discount of 20% = 65-13 which is $52
Answer:
x = -5, and y = -6
Step-by-step explanation:
Suppose that we have two equations:
A = B
and
C = D
combining the equations means that we will do:
First we multiply both whole equations by constants:
k*(A = B) ---> k*A = k*B
j*(C = D) ----> j*C = j*D
And then we "add" them:
k*A + j*C = k*B + j*D
Now we have the equations:
-x - y = 11
4*x - 5*y = 10
We want to add them in a given form that one of the variables cancels, so we can solve it for the other variable.
Then we can take the first equation:
-x - y = 11
and multiply both sides by 4.
4*(-x - y = 11)
Then we get:
4*(-x - y) = 4*11
-4*x - 4*y = 44
Now we have the two equations:
-4*x - 4*y = 44
4*x - 5*y = 10
(here we can think that we multiplied the second equation by 1, then we have k = 4, and j = 1)
If we add them, we get:
(-4*x - 4*y) + (4*x - 5*y) = 10 + 44
-4*x - 4*y + 4*x - 5*y = 54
-9*y = 54
So we combined the equations and now ended with an equation that is really easy to solve for y.
y = 54/-9 = -6
Now that we know the value of y, we can simply replace it in one of the two equations to get the value of x.
-x - y = 11
-x - (-6) = 11
-x + 6 = 11
-x = 11 -6 = 5
-x = 5
x = -5
Then:
x = -5, and y = -6

Step-by-step explanation:
3(x + 4) + 2 = 2 + 5(x – 4)
Step 1: distributive property
3(x + 4) + 2 = 2 + 5(x – 4)
3x + 12 + 2 = 2 + 5x - 20
Step 2: collect like terms
3x + 12 + 2 = 2 + 5x - 20
3x + 14 = 5x - 18
Step 3: Addition property of equality
3x + 14 = 5x - 18
3x + 14 + 18 = 5x - 18 + 18
3x + 32 = 5x
Step 4: subtraction property of equality
3x + 32 - 3x = 5x - 3x
32 = 2x
Step 5: division property of equality
32 = 2x
32/2 = 2x/2
16 = x
x = 16
Answer:
2x - 10 = 10 - 3x
Simplifying
2x + -10 = 10 + -3x
Reorder the terms:
-10 + 2x = 10 + -3x
Solving
-10 + 2x = 10 + -3x
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '3x' to each side of the equation.
-10 + 2x + 3x = 10 + -3x + 3x
Combine like terms: 2x + 3x = 5x
-10 + 5x = 10 + -3x + 3x
Combine like terms: -3x + 3x = 0
-10 + 5x = 10 + 0
-10 + 5x = 10
Add '10' to each side of the equation.
-10 + 10 + 5x = 10 + 10
Combine like terms: -10 + 10 = 0
0 + 5x = 10 + 10
5x = 10 + 10
Combine like terms: 10 + 10 = 20
5x = 20
Divide each side by '5'.
x = 4
Simplifying
x = 4
