For this case we find the expression that represents the cost of each printing press.
x: Be the variable that represents the number of programs to print
So:
Cost 1: Janet’s Print Shop
Cost 2: The Printing Press
If we want to find the number of programs for which the costs are the same, then we equate both equations:
Thus, for 150 programs the cost is the same.
Answer:
For 150 programs the cost is the same.
x=8
16-8=8
Use a calculator to find the square root of 8.
25/6 converts to 4 1/6 so
4 1/6 x 2 = 8 1/3
8 1/3 is your answer :)
It will most likely just rain on Monday
Set up a proportion like this
=
So your proportion would be:
We put x for offices because they are asking for the number o offices a crew can paint in 12 hours, and also we don't know the number of offices they can paint in 12 hours
so we cross multiply and we get
6x=60, we got 60 by multiplying 12 and 5
Now we divide both sides by 6 and we get
x=10
S the crew can paint 10 offices in 12 hours.
