Answer:
if youre answer has to be a whole number it would be 3 otherwise it would be x<4 ( so anything less than 4 )
Step-by-step explanation:
so because we are trying to find which company is less, we need to set up in inequality.
so first lets do company A
because 15 is our reoccuring fee, its going to be the coeifficient
so the equation would be
A - 15x + 20
now lets do company B
because it only 20 every month we dont need to have a constant which means the equation for B would be
B - 20x
so lets put it all together
15x + 20 > 20x ( remember our B side has to be less )
now lets solve it
20 > 5x
we know that if x = 4 then the two would be equal, which means our answer would have to be 3 months.
now always check your work.
15 (3) + 20 = 65
20(3) = 60
Let x be the unknown number
2x +7 = 39
2x+7-7 = 39-7
2x = 32
2x/2 = 32/2
x=16
You use the balance method to solve. First, you cancel the +7 by subtracting the 7 ON BOTH SIDES to balance the equation.. After that, you are left with 2x, where you will need to isolate the x by dividing by 2 ON BOTH SIDES to balance it.
Hope this helps
How much you need pay?
65x(1-25%)
=65x75%
=65x0.75
=48.75
Your answer should be $48.75.
1/3 ln(<em>x</em>) + ln(2) - ln(3) = 3
Recall that
, so
ln(<em>x</em> ¹ʹ³) + ln(2) - ln(3) = 3
Condense the left side by using sum and difference properties of logarithms:


Then
ln(2/3 <em>x</em> ¹ʹ³) = 3
Take the exponential of both sides; that is, write both sides as powers of the constant <em>e</em>. (I'm using exp(<em>x</em>) = <em>e</em> ˣ so I can write it all in one line.)
exp(ln(2/3 <em>x</em> ¹ʹ³)) = exp(3)
Now exp(ln(<em>x</em>)) = <em>x </em>for all <em>x</em>, so this simplifies to
2/3 <em>x</em> ¹ʹ³ = exp(3)
Now solve for <em>x</em>. Multiply both sides by 3/2 :
3/2 × 2/3 <em>x</em> ¹ʹ³ = 3/2 exp(3)
<em>x</em> ¹ʹ³ = 3/2 exp(3)
Raise both sides to the power of 3:
(<em>x</em> ¹ʹ³)³ = (3/2 exp(3))³
<em>x</em> = 3³/2³ exp(3×3)
<em>x</em> = 27/8 exp(9)
which is the same as
<em>x</em> = 27/8 <em>e</em> ⁹
