Answer:
Number of 8th Graders = 360 - X
Step-by-step explanation:
As you can see this question is not complete and lacks the essential data. But we will try to create a mathematical expression to calculate the number of students on the A honor roll which are from 8th grade.
As we know:
Total number of students on the A honor roll = 360
We are asked to calculate, number of students from 8th grade on the A honor roll.
So, let's assume that "X" represents the all the students who are on the A honor roll except 8th grade.
Mathematical Expression:
Number of 8th Graders = Total number of students on the A honor roll - X
Number of 8th Graders = 360 - X
So, if you know the value of X, you can easily calculate the number of students which are from 8th grade on the A honor roll.
Start by dividing all terms by 4, to reduce this expression: |x+1| < 3.
Case 1: x+1 is already positive. The abs. val. operator does not change
anything. Then x+1<3, or x<2.
Case 2: (x+1) is negative. The abs. val. operator, in effect, puts a - sign in
front of (x+1): -(x+1)<3. Distributing the - sign: -x - 1 < 3. Adding 1 to both sides: -x < 4. We want to solve for positive x, so we mult. both sides of
-x<4 by -1 AND change the direction of the inequality symbol:
x > -4
Thus, the solution set is (-4,2): All real numbers between -4 and 2.
Answer:
450
Step-by-step explanation:
First we have to find the discount
20% of 1500 = 300
if you search up 20 x 1500/100, it would say 300
you can do that same equation in your maths book, and also by canceling out
10% vat tax
so 10% of 1500 = 150
since it is tax, we have to add it to our discount
300 + 150 = 450
450 is the answer
3 |b-12| =|15|3b+36=15
b+36=5
b=-31 is your answer
