Hello! :)

Answer:

$\boxed{X=11}$

*The answer must have a POSITIVE sign!*

Step-by-step explanation:

Expand with distributive property: a(b+c)=ab+ac

4*5=20

6*4=24

20x-24

2*8=16

2*10=20

16x+20

20x-24=16x+20

First, you add by 24 both sides of an equation.

20x-24+24=16x+20+24

20x=16x+44

You subtract by 16x both sides of an equation.

20x-16x=16x+44-16x

4x=44

Then, you divide by 4 both sides of an equation.

4x/4=44/4

Divide by the numbers from left to right.

44/4=11

X=11 is the final answer

Hope this helps!

Have a nice day! :)

You have $55,000 in your savings account that pays 2.5% annual interest and the inflation rate is 3.4%. how much buying power in

Your interest formula is given to you.

Interest in a year = principal (the amount invested) * rate (the interest rate) * period (the time you're measuring) 

Interest = 55,000 * 2% * 1 year = 55,000 * 0.02 * 1 = $1,100 

How much would you need to have made for your spending power to keep with inflation? Your interest rate would have needed to match the inflation rate, otherwise, prices are going up faster than you're saving. 

Required interest = 55,000 * 3.24% * 1 year = 55,000 * 0.0324 * 1 = $1,782 

How much buying power did you lose? The difference between your required interest and your actual interest. 
Buying power lost = 1,782 - 1,100 = $682. You lost this much in buying power.

katrin [286]

We know for our problem that Rachel makes $10 per hour. Since $x$ represent the number of hours that she works, $10x$ will be the total amount that she will make for working $x$ hours. We also know that she sells bracelets for $5 each. Since $y$ represents the number of of bracelets that she sells, $5y$ will be her total revenue for selling $y$ bracelets. We also know that she needs to earn at least $200 a week to cover her expenses, so the sum of $10x$ and $5y$ must be equal or greater than 200:

$10x+5 \geq 200$

We can conclude that the graphs that shows the inequality that represents this situation, with its solution region shaded is:

1) combine like terms (k)
0 = 7k
k = 0/7 = 0
zero divided by any numbers will be zero

2) combine the like terms (the constant of -4 + 1)
9 = 6x - 3
add 3 to both sides
12 = 6x
x=2

3) -3+3=0
-4=v

4) 4+3=7
8=k+7
k=1

5)x-5x = -4x
16= -4x
x = -4
