Answer:

900 and $250

Step-by-step explanation

Given data

Total cost of utilities per month =$1150

Let the cost of rent be x

And the cost of electricity be y

x+y=1150---------1

It costs $650 more for rent per month than for electricity

x=x+650-------2

From equation 1

x+x+650=1150

2x=1150-650

2X=$500

x=500/2

x=$250

Hence the cost of electricity is $250

And the cost of rent is $650+250

=$900

Describe the graph of the function.y = |x – 4| – 7
juin [17]
This is always ''interesting'' If you see an absolute value, you always need to deal with when it is zero:

(x-4)=0 ===> x=4,

so that now you have to plot 2 functions!

For x<= 4: what's inside the absolute value (x-4) is negative, right?, then let's make it +, by multiplying by -1:

|x-4| = -(x-4)=4-x
Then:

for x<=4, y = -x+4-7 = -x-3

for x=>4, (x-4) is positive, so no changes:

y= x-4-7 = x-11,

Now plot both lines. Pick up some x that are 4 or less, for y = -x-3, and some points that are 4 or greater, for y=x-11

In fact, only two points are necessary to draw a line, right? So if you want to go full speed, choose:

x=4 and x= 3 for y=-x-3

And just x=5 for y=x-11

The reason is that the absolute value is continuous, so x=4 works for both:

x=4===> y=-4-3 = -7

x==4 ====> y = 4-11=-7!

abs() usually have a cusp int he point where it is =0

Hope it helps, despite being this long!

Seven less than two times a number is 29.
Alexxx [7]
2x-7=29

"Seven less than" => minus 7.
"Two times <u>a number</u>" => 2x (x is the unknown number)
"is twenty-nine" => =29
Putting it all together, 

-7 + 2x = 29
or
2x-7=29
(if you were wondering x is equal to 18)

Answer:

so it's

3/7m<21

and we devide both sides of the inequality.

/2r-1\>7

And we can rewrite it as a compound Inequality

2r-1<7 (or) 2r-1>7 Ima give u the enter

[r<-3 or r>4 I guess it's like this❕
