Isolate the x
divide 3 from both sides
3x/3 > 6/3
x > 6/3
x > 2 is your answer
Note: because you are not dividing by a negative number, you do not need to flip the sign
hope this helps
Additive Identity.
When a number (x) added to zero it will give the number itself as the result.
X + 0 = X
74 + 0 = 74
The limit does not exist. Why? Because the left hand limit DOES NOT equal the right hand limit. Let’s double check:
We could use -0.000001 to represent the left hand limit. This is less than 0. We plug in 5x - 8
5(-0.000001) - 8
-0.000005 - 8
-8.000005
If we would continue the limit (extend the zeros to infinity), we would get exactly
-8
That is our left hand limit.
Our right hand limit will be represented by 0.000001. This is greater than 0. We plug in abs(-4 - x)
abs(-4 - (0.000001))
abs(-4.000001)
4.000001
If we would continue the limit (extend the zeros to infinity), we would get exactly
4
4 does not equal -8, therefore
The limit does not exist
Answer:
9,420.0 cubic feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the steaks = X and the salmon = y.
Set up two equations:
15x + 18y = 559.81
19x + 9y = 583.66
Now using the elimination method:
Multiply the second equation by -2, then add the equations together.
(15x+18y=559.81)
−2(19x+9y=583.66)
Becomes:
15x+18y=559.81
−38x−18y=−1167.32
Add these equations to eliminate y:
−23x=−607.51
Divide both sides by -23 to solve for x:
x= -607.51 = -23 = 26.413478
Now you have the cost for a steak.
To solve for the cost of the salmon, replace x with the value in the first equation and solve for y.
15(26.413478) + 18y = 559.91
396.202174 + 18y = 559.81
Subtract 396.202174 from both sides:
18y = 163.607826
Divide both sides by 18:
y = 163.607826 / 18
y = 9.089324
Round both x and Y to the nearest cent:
X (Steaks) =$26.41
Y (Salmon) = $9.09
