Answer:
Story 2 because it is talking about how much they spend. ANOTHER HINT: That equation has all the numbers in story 2. They key is to look at how the problem is set up.
Answer:
600<2570-125.5x<2000 subtract 2570 from all terms...
-970<-125.5x<-570 divide all terms by -125.5 (and reverse signs because of division by a negative!)
7.73>x>4.54 and x is months since January, and since months can only be integers...
x=[5,7]
So January + 5, 6, and 7 respectively are the three months that satisfy the equation...
June, July, and August.
Step-by-step explanation:
SOLUTION:
Let whole number = x
x + 2x^2 = 21
2x^2 + x - 21 = 0
2x^2 + 7x - 6x - 21 = 0
x ( 2x + 7 ) - 3 ( 2x + 7 ) = 0
( 2x + 7 ) ( x - 3 ) = 0
2x + 7 = 0
2x = - 7
x = - 7 / 2
OR
x - 3 = 0
x = 3
ANSWER:
Therefore, as 3 is a whole number while - 7 / 2 isn't a whole number, the whole number must be 3.
Hope this helps! :)
Have a lovely day! <3
