<span>In order to find the breakeven number of game rentals, we need to find the point at which the costs are equal. To do this, we set two expressions as a function of the number of games, equate them, and solve.
For Fun Guys, cost C = 20 + 6.5g, where g is the number of games
For Game Bank, C = 50 + 3.5g
Equating -> 20 + 6.5g = 50 + 3.5g -> 3g = 30 -> g = 10
At 10 games, the cost will be the same for both stores, and that cost is 50 + 3.5* 10 = 20 + 6.5*10 = $85.</span>
Hi there!
To create an expression that uses the distribution property which can be simplified into 40 + 4x, we can find a factor between 40 and 4:
Since both 40 and 4 is divisible by 4,
40 / 4 = 10
4 / 4 = 1
We can put the 4 on the outside of the parenthesis, and put the quotients inside the parenthesis. And since the expression is in addition, we should include the addition symbol as the operation inside the parenthesis.
4(10 + x)
would be your answer.
Hope this helps!
I would say that it would be less than. The question says Jenn shared a total of 40 jellybeans equally and to share with others, Jenn would have to divide the jellybeans among her friends. Since she is dividing the jellybeans, the amount each friend gets would be less than the total. Therefore it would be less than 40.
Cosine(angle) = adjacent leg/ hypotenuse
Cosine( angle ) = 18/20
Angle = arccos(18/20)
Angle = 26 degrees
