11. 2x+3x+1=21
5x+1 =21
5x=20
x=4
TU= 2(4) which is 8
UB= 3(4)+1 which is 13
12. 4x-1 +2x-1=5x
6x-2=5x
-2=-1x
2=x
X=2
TU= 7
UB= 3
TB=10
Problem 13:
2x-8=x+17
2x=x+25
x=25
AB =42
BC=42
AC=84
Problem 14:
3x-31
-x+6
=
2x-37 for BC part now we solve for x
x+6=2x-37
6=x-37
43=x
So :
X=43
AB=49
AC=98
BC=49
Answer:
He ran 3.25 on Tuesday
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer is 3.25 because 5.55 minus 2.3 is 3.25.
-- They're losing employees . . . so you know that the line will slope down, and
its slope is negative;
-- They're losing employees at a steady rate . . . so you know that the slope is
the same everywhere on the line; this tells you that the graph is a straight line.
I can see the function right now, but I'll show you how to go through the steps to
find the function. I need to point out that these are steps that you've gone through
many times, but now that the subject pops up in a real-world situation, suddenly
you're running around in circles with your hair on fire screaming "What do I do ?
Somebody give me the answer !".
Just take a look at what has already been handed to you:
0 months . . . 65 employees
1 month . . . . 62 employees
2 months . . . 59 employees
You know three points on the line !
(0, 65) , (1, 62) , and (2, 59) .
For the first point, 'x' happens to be zero, so immediately
you have your y-intercept ! ' b ' = 65 .
You can use any two of the points to find the slope of the line.
You will calculate that the slope is negative-3 . . . which you
might have realized as you read the story, looked at the numbers,
and saw that they are <u>firing 3 employees per month</u>.
("Losing" them doesn't quite capture the true spirit of what is happening.)
So your function ... call it ' W(n) ' . . . Workforce after 'n' months . . .
is <em>W(n) = 65 - 3n</em> .
The correct answer is the second option: plus or minus square root of 20
Hope this helped :)
4x is the answer for this one
