-5+-12 is -17
For lack of a better metaphor, it's like digging a pit deeper than it already is.
Answer:
y=12.73 x=9
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: the service charge per hour for premium services is $5.5
the service charge per hour for regular services is $3
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the service charge per hour for premium services.
Let y represent the service charge per hour for regular services.
One customer was charged $38 after spending 2 h in premium areas and 9 regular hours. It means that
2x + 9y = 38- - - - - - - - - - - 1
Another customer spent 3 h in premium areas and 6 regular hours and was charged $34.50. It means that
3x + 6y = 34.5- - - - - - - - - - -2
We would eliminate x by multiplying equation 1 by 3 and equation 2 by 2. It becomes
6x + 27y = 114
6x + 12y = 69
Subtracting, it becomes
15y = 45
y = 45/15
y = 3
Substituting y = 3 into equation 1, it becomes
2x + 9 × 3 = 38
2x + 27 = 38
2x = 38 - 27 = 11
x = 11/2 = 5.5
Answer:
37/6
Step-by-step explanation:
-23/6 - 7/3
= -23/6 - 14/6 just make both have the same denominator (2x the 3 to make 6 and do same with numerator)
= 37/6 or 6 1/6
Answer: C, 4 gallons per minute.
Step-by-step explanation: To find the unit rate of the faucet, we must make the units an even gallons/minute. Thus, we multiply each rate by 5 to get 4 gallons/minute.
