One fifth of the family's income is spent on housing:

(1/5)($25,200) = $5,040.

Simply divide $25,200 by 5
25200 \div 5 = 5040

$5,400 was spent on housing

Given the equation 5x − 4 = –2(3x + 2), solve for the variable. Explain each step and justify your process.
blagie [28]
A.
5x-4=-2(3x+2) \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ |\hbox{expand the bracket} \\
5x-4=-2 \times 3x-2 \times 2 \\
5x-4=-6x-4 \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ |\hbox{add 6x to both sides} \\
11x-4=-4 \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ |\hbox{add 4 to both sides} \\
11x=0 \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ |\hbox{divide both sides by 11} \\
x=0

B.
3(2x-4)=5x-1 \\
6x-12=5x-1 \\
\boxed{11x-12=-1} \Leftarrow \hbox{the first mistake} \\
11x=11 \\
\boxed{x=11} \Leftarrow \hbox{the second mistake}

Megan's solution isn't correct.
The first mistake: she subtracted 5x from the right-hand side of the equation, but added 5x to the left-hand side.
The second mistake: she divided the right-hand side of the equation by 11, but didn't divide the left-hand side.

The correct solution:
3(2x-4)=5x-1 \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ |\hbox{expand the bracket} \\
3 \times 2x+3 \times (-4)=5x-1 \\ 6x-12=5x-1 \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ |\hbox{subtract 5x from both sides} \\
x-12=-1 \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \  |\hbox{add 12 to both sides} \\
x=11

The constraints of a problem are listed below. What are the vertices of the feasible region?
Luda [366]

Answer: option 1.

Explanation:

feasible region is that region which is formed by the lines of constraints.

feasible region is shaded in the attached graph

inequalities becomes equalities to draw the graph

and lines will head towards the origin if constraint satisfied by putting x= 0, y=0

and on the contrary lines will move away from origin when condition of constraint does not satisfied.

What the anwser fast !!!!!!
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

The initial height is the y-intercept of the graph

slope of the graph = -2

Jordon interprets the only the slope correctly.

Aral interprets the only the initial height correctly.

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope = change in y ÷ change in x = (0 - 12) ÷ (6 - 0) = -12 ÷ 6 = -2

So the slope of the graph = -2

by inspection, the y-intercept = 12

Therefore, the equation for the line is   y = -2x + 12

Jordon interprets the only the slope correctly.

Aral interprets the only the initial height correctly

The difference of two numbers is 3. Their sum is - 24. Find the numbers.
Katarina [22]

Answer:

y = -13.5

x = -10.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

Let the two numbers be equal to <em>x</em> and <em>y</em>.

The difference of two numbers is 3 ⇒ x - y = 3

Their sum is - 24 ⇒ x + y = -24

Solve using elimination:

x - y = 3

x + y = -24

Add the two equations:

x + x - y + y = 3 - 24

2x = -21

x = -10.5

Solve for y:

-10.5 - y = 3

- y = 3 + 10.5

y = -13.5

I hope this helps!

How can I find the three iterations of 3^(x)= 2^(-x)+4
DIA [1.3K]

After factorizing the given equation, we can find the three iterations by putting the consecutive values of x.

The given equation is 3∧x = 2∧(-x) + 4. We can modify it as shown below:

Take logarithm on both the sides

log(3∧x) = log[2∧(-x) + 4]

xlog3 = log[2∧(-x) + 4]

x = log[2∧(-x) + 4] / log3

For the first iteration, put x = 1

x = log[2∧(-1) + 4] / log3

x = log4.5 / log3

x = 0.477

For the second iteration, put x = 2

x = log[2∧(-2) + 4] / log3

x = log4.25 / log3

x = 0.477

For the third iteration, put x = 3

x = log[2∧(-3) + 4] / log3

x = log4.125 / log3

x = 0.477

So, this is how we can find three iterations.
