Written as an inequality- x+18<28
The second one would be the answer. You want to plug in for this question. You can divide over the five leaving you with (x-2)^2 =25. Since you are squaring this answer, you want to get either 5 or negative five. Both -3 and 7 will do that.
Answer: her sales for the month of May is $55000
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent her total sales for the month of May.
Each month she receives a 5% commission on all her sales of medical supplies up to $20,000. This means that for her first sales worth $20000, she earns a commission of
5/100 × 20000 = 1000
She also earns 8.5% on her total sales over $20,000. This means that for sales over $20000, she earns
8.5/100(x - 20000) = 0.085x - 1700
Her total commission for May was $3,975. The expression becomes
1000 + 0.085x - 1700 = 3975
0.085x = 3975 + 1700 - 1000
0.085x = 4675
x = 4675/0.085
x = 55000
52 and 54. Integers are whole numbers meaning 1..4..7..17...25 and so on. Consecutive meaning one right after the other. So 52 and 54 are the answer.
Answer: 50 Books
Step-by-step explanation:
B = number of books in Ruben's collection BEFORE he bought new ones.
So 6 books were bought which increased his collection by 12%.
12% as a decimal would be 0.12..then we add the variable which represents the number of books, 0.12B.
So then we know 0.12=6
*We need to isolate the variable* So we would divide 0.12 on both sides. 0.12/0.12 and 0.12/6 which is 50.
Hope this helps! :)
