Answer:

28 students

Step-by-step explanation:

Let number of students in cooking club = x

Number of students in fencing club = 1/5 x

Number of students in chess club = 2(1/5)x

Since, There are 42 more students in the cooking club than in the chess club

Then ;

Number of students in chess club = Number of students in cooking club - 42

2(1/5)x = x - 42

(2/5)x - x = - 42

(2/5)x - x = - 42

-0.6x = - 42

x = 42 / 0.6

x = 70

Hence, number of students in chess club :

(2/5) * 70 = 28

Solve for y, 3xy+x=9 Then find f(x) when x=2

<span>3xy+x=9
3xy = 9 - x
    y = 3/x - 1/3

if x = 2
f(2) = 3/2 - 1/3
f(2) = 9/6 - 2/6
f(2) = 7/6
f(2) = 1 1/6</span>

Nate starts a lawn-mowing business. In his business, he has expenses and revenue. Nate's expenses are the cost of the lawn mower
Korolek [52]

The question is incomplete. The complete question is :

Nate starts a lawn-mowing business. In his business, he has expenses and revenue. Nate's expenses are the cost of the lawn mower and gas, and his revenue is $25 per lawn. At what point will Nate's revenue exceed his expense?

Cost of lawn mower = $ 200

Cost of gasoline = $ 2 per lawn

Solution :

Given :

Cost of the lawn mower = $ 200

The cost of gasoline expense for one lawn = $ 2

The revenue generated for one lawn = $ 25

So let the number of lawn to be mowed = x

Therefore the total expenses = $200+2x$

So, the total revenue = $25x$

The point for which the revenue will exceed the total expenditure will be :

$25x \geq 200+2x$

So at x=9,  \ 225 > 218

Thus the revenue exceeds the total expenditure after mowing 9 number of lawns.
