     -10       -10

15x=90

/15    /15

x=6

Maddie's equation

15x - 10 = 100

     +10      +10

15x=110

/15     /15

x=7 1/3

MADDIE IS RIGHT

this is because she said 7 ans=d you cannot buy 1/3 of a shirt.

Because bernard has some health issues, he must pay 15% more for life insurance. about how much more annually will a $115,000 10
Sergeu [11.5K]

The amount more annually a $115,000 10-year term insurance at age 35 cost Bernard than someone of the same age without health issues is $24.

<h3>What are insurance premiums?</h3>

The insurance premium is paid as a cost to cover a possible loss that is unseen.

The annual premium rate as a percentage of the value insured a person at age 35 has to pay is 0.14%.

From the given information, we have that the amount a 35-year-old without health issues will pay per $1,000 is $1.40

The amount to be paid for $115,000 is 115 × $1.4 = $161

The amount Bernard pays = 15% more

= 1.15 × $161

= $185.15

Therefore,

The amount more Bernard has to pay = $185.15 - $161

= $24.15 ≈ $24

Verify that your point from Question 2 is a solution to 2x-y=-12x−y=−1 AND is also a solution to y=5x-5y=5x−5. What does it mean
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

(a) Verified

(b) They are simultaneous equations

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

2x - y = -1

y =5x - 5

Required

Verify that: (x,y) = (2,5) is a solution

We have:

2x - y = -1

Substitute: (x,y) = (2,5)

2 * 2 - 5 = -1

Evaluate all products

4 - 5 = -1

Subtract:

-1 = -1

<em>Because both sides of the equation are equal, then the point is a solution</em>

<em></em>

Also: y =5x - 5

Substitute: (x,y) = (2,5)

5 = 5 * 2 - 5

Evaluate all products

5 = 10 - 5

Subtract:

5 = 5

<em>Because both sides of the equation are equal, then the point is a solution</em>

<em></em>

<em></em>

Because the given point is a solution to both equations, then they are simultaneous equation

PLEASE HELP ME PLEASE

±1/2. The equation 4x^{2} =1 has two possible solutions +1/2 and -1/2.

The problem is a quadratic equations and it can be solved using the equation x=-b±\frac{\sqrt{b^{2} -4ac} }{2a}.

Ordering the quadratic equation given in the problem, we obtain 4x^{2} -1=0 where a = 4, b = 0, and c = -1

Substituting the values

x=±\frac{\sqrt{-4(4)(-1)} }{2(4)}=±\frac{\sqrt{16}}{8} =±\frac{4}{8} \\x=±\frac{1}{2}
