Before answering these questions, we need to write out both equations.
For Job 'A', his salary would be: 55,000 + 2,500n
This assumes 'n' equals the number of years Lenny spends at these companies.
For Job 'B', his salary would be: 62,000 + 2,000n
A.
So basically we need to find a number were:
55,000 + 2,500n = 62,000 + 2,000n
is true. So basically solve ^that^ equasion.
55,000 + 2,500n = 62,000 + 2,000n
simplify
500n = 7,000
devide
n = 14
Fourteen years is your answer.
B.
a. 55,000 + 2,500n
b. 62,000 + 2,000n
So in order to answer this question, you basically just have to replace 'n' with the number '20', and see which one's bigger.
a.
55,000 + 2,500(20)
55,000 + 50,000
105,000
b.
62,000 + 2,000(20)
62,000 + 40,000
102,000
105,000 > 102,000
So your answer is:
Lenny should go to company 'a' because 105,000 is greater than 102,000.
[[tip: If you want to wow, surprise, or confuse your teacher (depending on her actual intelligence) write something like, 'another reason Lenny should choose company 'a' is because it gives higher annual raises, which is better in long-term.' He/She may not get it though, lol, wrong class.]]
Anyway, I hope this helped! :D
I think its b because it makes sense
The perimeter is just all the lines around the outside of the shape so basically take all the numbers and add them together to get the answer
Option A and B are correct.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the following systems of equation:
We need to identify the action creates an equivalent system that will eliminate one variable when they are combined.
Checking the options:
a) Multiply the second equation by −2 to get −8x − 6y = −30
If we add equation(1) and the new equation(2) the variable y will be eliminated. So, this is the correct option.
b) Multiply the first equation by 2 to get 4x + 12y = 24.
If we subtract new equation(1) and equation(2), the variable x will be eliminated. So, this is the correct option.
c) Multiply the second equation by −4 to get −16x − 12y = −60
By adding or subtracting, none of the variable is eliminated. So, it is not the correct option.
d) Multiply the first equation by −4 to get −8x − 24y = −48.
By adding or subtracting, none of the variable is eliminated. So, it is not the correct option.
So, Option A and B are correct.
