The difference is that evaluating an expression for a given value is an example of let’s say In a example, the variable x is equal to 6 since 6 + 6 = 12. So it means that they are giving you the input already. SOLVING an equation is working backwards, to undo everything that has been done to the input. So you have to do the equation in order to find your answer.
Let ‘s’ be the son’s age 12 years ago.
Let ‘f’ be the father’s current age.
4 years ago, the son was:
s-4
So, his father is currently:
3(s-4)
=
3s-12
Therefore:
f = 3s-12
In twelve years, the son will be:
s+12
And the father will be:
f+12
This can also be written as:
3s-12+12 as the fathers younger age would be f = 3s+12
=
3s
So, we know that s+12 is half the fathers current age, meaning the father is currently 2(s+12) which is equivalent to 2s+24. Also, we know that the father is currently 3 times the sons age 12 years ago, so 3s (proven by the calculations we made above). Therefore, 2s+24=3s which means 24=s. We can then substitute this, and we will receive 24+12 = 36
Son’s current age: 36
We then substitute the son’s age 12 years ago into 2s+24 to give us the father’s age.
2(24)+24 = 72
Father’s current age: 72
Minutes. Because you cannot concert minutes to hours.
1 hour= 60 Minutes
2 hours= 120 Minutes
Given: lines l and m are parallel, and line t is a transversal.
angle pair result/justification
1 and 2 are equal (vertical angles)
6 and 8 are equal (corresponding angles)
1 and 4 are equal (alternate exterior angles)
4 and 8 are supplementary angles (i.e. add up to 180 degrees, a straight angle)
Note:
alternate angles are on opposite sides of the transversal, and each attached to a different (parallel) line.
If they are both enclosed by the parallel lines, they are alternate interior angles (examples: angles 2 and 3, 6 and 7)
If they are both outside of the two parallel lines, they are alternate exterior angles (examples: angles 1 and 4, 5 and 8)
Answer: her sales last week was $4300.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent her her sales in a week.
Danielle earns a 8.25% commission on everything she sells at the electronics store where she works. This means that the commission she gets if she makes sales of $x is 0.0825x
She also earns a base salary of $675 per week. The expression for the total earnings for a week in which she made sales of $x would be
0.0825x + 675
if her total earnings for last week were $1,029.75, it means that
0.0825x + 675 = 1029.75
0.0825x = 1029.75 - 675
0.0825x = 1029.75 - 675
0.0825x = 354.75
x = 354.75/0.0825
x = $4300
