3 (3 + x) = 5x - 25

9 + 3x = 5x - 25

Add 25 to each side

34 + 3x = 5x

Subtract 3x from each side

34 = 2x

Divide each side by 2

17 = x

Rachel’s mother tells her she can play at the arcade as long as the cost does not exceed $24. Each game costs $1.50.

Deffense [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If each game is $1.50 we would divide the 24 by 1.50, or multiple 1.50 to find 24. So 24 divided by 1.50 is 16.

So she could play 16 games.

For a package to qualify for a certain postage rate, the sum of its length and girth cannot exceed 85 inches. If the girth is 63

tester [92]

Answer:

Length of package can be = 22 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

For a package to qualify for a certain postage rate, the sum of its length and girth cannot exceed 85 inches

To find length of package when girth of package is = 63 inches

Solution:

Let length of package be = $l$ inches

Let girth length of package be = $g$ inches

Sum of length and girth of package = $(l+g)$ inches

To qualify for a certain postage rate the sum of length and girth should not exceed 85 inches.

Thus, the inequality representing the situation can be given as:

$l+g\leq 85$

We are given girth of package is = 63 inches

So, inequality to find length would be:

$l+63\leq 85$

Subtracting both sides by 63.

$l+63-63\leq 85-63$

$l\leq 22$ inches

So, length should not exceed 22 inches in order to qualify.

Thus, the maximum length of package to qualify for the postal rate must be = 22 inches

Water pressure increases 0.44 pounds per square inch (0.44 psi) with each increase of one foot in depth below sea level. Identif

prohojiy [21]

Answer:

Depth below sea level is the independent quantity,

Water pressure is the dependent quantity

Step-by-step explanation:

An independent quantity is a variable that can be changed in an experiment. While, dependent quantity results from the independent quantity or we can say, that depends upon the independent quantity.

Here,

The water pressure increases 0.44 pounds per square inch (0.44 psi) with each increase of one foot in depth below sea level,

So, for measuring the water pressure we took depth below sea level as a variable,

⇒ Depth below sea level is the independent quantity,

While, with increasing depth by 1 foot the pressure is also increase by 0.44 pounds per square inches ⇒ pressure depends upon the depth

⇒ Water pressure is the dependent quantity.
