Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The $50 cleanup fee is a "fixed cost."

The "$30 per-person fee is a "variable cost."  That is, it varies with the number of people.

 

"within"  means "less than or equal to"

 

Cost = $50 + $30x       [where x = number of people]

 

Cost ≤  $4500              ["stay within their budget"]

$50 + $30x ≤ $4500           [substitute for cost]

 $30x ≤ $4450      [subtract $50 from both sides retains sense of inequality]

   x ≤ 148.3333     [divide by +$30 retains sense of inequality]

 

Mark and Heather may invite up to 148 guests.

     [note:  to be "≤," always truncate, never round up]

 

Check:

 148 people for $30 each + $50 is $4440+$50 = $4490.

One more person makes it $4520 -- that is too much.

There we go, my bad

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need a linear equation for the situation. 50 cleanup fee applies regardless of how many people they have.  Even if NOBODY shows up, they will be charged $50, so $50 is our y-intercept. If they are charged $30 per person, and we are looking for the number of people they can invite, x will represent the number of people and y will represent the cost of everything. The linear equation is

y = 30x + 50. If they have 4500 to spend, then

4500 = 30x + 50, and now solve it for x:

4450 = 30x and now divide by 30 to get

148 1/3 = x. Now, you can't invite a third of a person, so it would be safe to invite 148 people and you won't go over your budget.

If line KM bisects angle JKL, angle JKL = 92 degrees, and angle MKL = (5x+1) degrees, find the value of
kherson [118]

The value of the variable x is found to be x = 9.

<h3>What is termed as angle bisector?</h3>
  • In geometry, an angle bisector is a line that divides an angle into two equal angles.
  • A bisector is something that divides a shape or thing into two equal portions.
  • An angle bisector is a ray that divides an angle into two equal components of the same measurement.

A bisected angle divides the two sides in equals.

JKM = LKM

As, both are equal.

Then, each of these angles are 1/2 the angle JKL.

1/2 JKL = MKL

1/2 ×( 92) = 5x + 1

Further simplifying;

46 = 5x+1

Subtract 1 from each side

46-1 = 5x

45 = 5x

Divide each side by 5

45/5 = 5x/5

x = 9

Thus, the value of the unknown variable is found to be x = 9 units.

A sound wave travels through iron at a rate of 5120\,\dfrac{\text{m}}{\text{s}}5120 s m ​ 5120, start fraction, start text, m, e
klio [65]

Answer:

18432 km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that a sound wave travels through iron at a rate of 5120 m/s.

We know that

1 km = 1000 m

1 hour = 60 minutes

1 minutes = 60 second

Using these conversions we get

1 m = 0.001 km

1 hour  = 3600 second

5120\text{ m/s }=5120\times 0.001\times 3600\text{ km/h}

5120\text{ m/s }=18432\text{ km/h}

Therefore, the sound wave travels through iron at a rate of 18432 km/h.

How do the graphs of y=1/x and y=5/x+6<br><br> compare?
oee [108]

Answer:  The graph is attached.

Step-by-step explanation:  The given functions whose graphs are to be compared are as follows:

y=\dfrac{1}{x},~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(A)\\\\\\y=\dfrac{5}{x}+6.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(B)

In the attached figure, the graphs of both (A) and (B) are shown. We can easily see see from there, the shapes of both the graphs are same.

But, at x = 0, y = ∞ and at x = ∞, y = 0 in graph (A).

At  x = 0, y = ∞ and at x = ∞, y = 6 in graph (B).

Thus, the comparison can be seen in the figure very clearly.

On Monday, the high was 60oF. On Tuesday, the high was 10% more than Monday. Then on Wednesday, the temperature decrease by 8%.
Arada [10]

Answer:

60.72

Step-by-step explanation:

Monday: 60 degrees

Tuesday: temperature increases by 10 percent

60 + 10% of 60

60 + .10*60 = 70 +6 = 66

Wednesday: temperature decreases by 8 percent

66 - 8%of 66

66 - .08*66 = 66 -5.28=60.72

Does a regular pentagon tessellate and why​
mariarad [96]

Answer:

No, a regular pentagon does not tessellate.

In a tessellation, all the angles at a point have to add to 360 degrees, as this means there is no overlap, nor are there gaps. To find the interior angle sum of a pentagon, we use the following formula:

(n-2)*180 (where n is the number of sides)

We plug in the number of sides (5) and get:

Angle sum = (5–2)*180

Angle sum = 3*180

Angle sum = 540

Regular pentagons have equal sides and equal angles, so to find the size of the interior angle of a pentagon, we divide the angle sum by 5 and get 108 degrees for every angle.

As I said before, the angles at a point need to add up to 360, so we need to know if 108 divides evenly into 360. If it does, the shape tessellates, and, if it doesn’t, the shape does not.

360/108 = 3.33333…

This means that a regular pentagon does not tessellate.

Hope this helps!
