Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a system of inequalities problem. We first need to determine the expression for each phone plan.
Plan A charges $15 whether you use any minutes of long distance or not; if you use long distance you're paying $.09 per minute. The expression for that plan is
.09x + 15
Plan B charges $12 whether you use any minutes of long distance or not; if you use long distance you're paying $.15 per minute. The expression for that plan is
.15x + 12
We are asked to determine how many minutes of long distance calls in a month, x, that make plan A the better deal (meaning costs less). If we want plan A to cost less than plan B, the inequality looks like this:
.09x + 15 < .15x + 12 and "solve" for x:
3 < .06x so
50 < x or x > 50
For plan A to be the better plan, you need to talk at least 50 minutes long distance per month. Any number of minutes less than 50 makes plan B the cheaper one.
Answer:
8 dollars
Step-by-step explanation:
if "x" is his weekly allowance:
x-0.5x+8=12
Dan make x dollars, then he spend 0.5x dollars and he earned 8 dollars, and that is 12 dollars.
0.5x=12-8
x=8 dollars
Answer:
40

Answer:
She has 5 candles left.
Step-by-step explanation:
Total of candy Sarah has = 25candies
If Sarah gave 2/5 of the candies to her sister, the total amount she gave her sister will be 2/5 of 25
2/5 of 25 = 10
The remaining candy left will be 25-10 which is 15.
If she gave 2/3 of the amount left to her friend, the amount she gave her friend will be 2/3×15 = 10candies.
Answer:
A.
Step-by-step explanation:
6/7 / 3/5 we invert the divisor and multiply:
= 6/7 * 5/3
