Solve each of the equations independently, then determine if the are continuous or discontinuous.
15≥-3x [start here]
-5≤x [divide both sides by (-3). *Dividing by a negative number means the direction of the sign changes!]
x≥-5 [just turned around for analysis]
Next equation:
2/3x≥-2 [start here]
x≥-2(3/2) [multiply both sides of the equation by the reciprocal, 3/2)
x≥-3
So, (according to the first equation) all values of x must be greater than, or equal to -5.
(According to the second equation) all values of x must be greater than, or equal to -3.
So, when graphed on a number line, both equations graph in the same direction, so they are continuous.
X= number of dimes
x+6= number of quarters
5(x+6)= number of nickels
$5.40= 540 cents
Add the number of each coin and set it equal to the total in cents.
x + (x + 6) + 5(x + 6)= $5.40
multiply 5 by parentheses; change dollar total to cents
x + (x + 6) + (5 * x) + (5 * 6)= 540
x + (x + 6) + 5x + 30= 540
combine like terms
7x + 36= 540
subtract 36 from both sides
7x= 504
divide both sides by 7
x= 72 dimes
x + 6= 78 quarters
5(x + 6)= 390 nickels
CHECK
72 + 78 + 390= 540
540= 540
ANSWER: There are 72 dimes, 78 quarters and 390 nickels.
Hope this helps! :)
Answer: 20 dallors
Step-by-step explanation:
Solving for "K" , got it! :)
I'll make it easier to solve
(k)4+3-14=?
? = 0
4(k)-11 = 0
Take off the '0' and the addition symbol so we can add from 11 on your sides
4(k) - 11
+11 +11
---- ----
15k. 22
⬆ This would be your answer for k
4(k) = 11
÷4 ÷4
--- ----
1K ?
K = 11/4 (for fraction)
K = 2.75 (as a decimal)
Circumference = 18.84 yards
Diameter = 6 yards
