Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number = x

2/5 (x - 1)

<

3/5 (x + 1)

2/5 (x - 1 ) < 3/5(x+ 1)      Multiply both sides  by 5

2(x - 1) < 3 ( x + 1)            Remove the brackets.

2x - 2 < 3x + 3                Add 2 to both sides

2x < 3x + 5                     Subtract 3x from both sides

2x - 3x < 5              

- x < 5                            Here's the tricky part . Divide by - 1

x > -5                             Notice what happened. The < become > That happens because you have divided (or multiplied) by a negative number.

The original question 2/5 (x - 1 ) < 3/5(x+ 1)    was graphed. The red part is every value that satisfies the inequality. You should be using a y and x together to find a more suitable answer using this program. But if you just look along the x axis, you will see that the < has been turned around.

B The second one from the top.

7 line tshirt company manufactures t-shirts and sells them online.The company has a model where the cost C, in dollars to make x
bonufazy [111]

Answer:

The company must sell at least 2 shirts to break even.

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost:

The cost is given by the following equation:

C = \frac{40}{30x+20} + 20 = \frac{4x}{3} + 20

Revenue:

The revenue is given by the following equation:

R = 15x

How many t shirts must the company sell to break even?

Breakeven point is when the revenue is the same as the costs. So

\frac{4x}{3} + 20 = 15x

15x - \frac{4x}{3} = 20

\frac{45x}{3} - \frac{4x}{3} = 20

Multiplying everything by 3

45x - 4x = 60

41x = 60

x = \frac{60}{41} = 1,...

Since you cant make a decimal value of shirts

The company must sell at least 2 shirts to break even.

1) Solve for Side A.<br><br> 2) Solve for Angle B.
avanturin [10]

Answer:

solution given;

let

AB=a

AC=b=30ft

AB=c=20ft

<A=115°

By using Cosine rule.

a²=b²+c²-2bc cos angle

a²=30²+20²-2*30*20 Cos 115°

a²=1807.1419

a=√[1807.1419]

a=42.51

Side A is 42.51ft.

Again

Cos B=\frac{a²+c²-b²}{2ac}

Cos B=\frac{42.51²+20²-30²}{2*42.51*20}

Cos B=0.7687

<B=Cos -¹(0.7687)

<B=39.46°

Angle B is 39.46
