In the proportional theory,

28 units is the total measurement that includes 8 units.

So, 10 + 3x - 5 is the total measurement that includes 10 units proportionally.

This means,

28 = 10 + 3x - 5

Now solve for x,

28 = 10 + 3x - 5

28 - 10 = 3x - 5

18 + 5 = 3x

23 = 3x

23 / 3 = x

So x = 23/3 or 7.6666....

Virty [35]

Answer: 286 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

x : # of months that has gone by

0.24x : cost of the 24 cent plan after "x" minutes

39.95 + 0.10x : cost of the 10 cent plan after "x" minutes

1. 39.95 + 0.10x > 0.24x

2. 39.95 > 0.24x - 0.10x

3. 39.95 > 0.14x

4. 285.36 > x

x must be AT LEAST 286 minutes for plan #2 (39.95 + 0.10x) to be a better deal

Answer:

$29000 with a margin of error of $5000

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that the midpoint between the given values ​​is

(X1+X2) / 2 = ($34000+$24000)/2 = $29000

We have that the midpoint between the given values ​​would be

(X2-X1)/2=($34000-$24000)/2=$10000/2=$5000

So I can write that approach as $29000 with a margin of error of $5000

Done

A 51 foot piece of wire is cut into 3 sections so that the first section is three times as long as the second section and the se
kirill [66]

Answer:

The length of the longest section x = 36 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Total length of the wire = 51 ft

Let first section of wire = x

Second section of wire = y

Third section of wire = z

According to given data

x = 3 y & y = 4 z

Total length of the wire = x + y + z = 51

y + 3 y + \frac{y}{4} = 51

\frac{17}{4} y = 51

y = 12

x = 3 × 12 = 36

z = \frac{y}{4} = \frac{12}{4} = 3

Therefore the length of the longest section x = 36 ft
