Answer:

x > 6

Step-by-step explanation: If 6 pounds multiplied by 5 dollars equals 30 dollars, Latoya must buy more than 6 pounds to go over 30 dollars. However, there are an indefinite amount of numbers that are over 6, so the simplest way to represent this answer is "x > 6".

<h3>Answer:   14x - 8</h3>

=======================================================

Explanation:

I'll use the quadratic formula to find the roots or x intercepts. This slight detour allows us to factor without having to use guess-and-check methods.

The equation is of the form ax^2+bx+c = 0

  • a = 12
  • b = -11
  • c = -5

This leads to...

x = \frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\\\\x = \frac{-(-11)\pm\sqrt{(-11)^2-4(12)(-5)}}{2(12)}\\\\x = \frac{11\pm\sqrt{361}}{24}\\\\x = \frac{11\pm19}{24}\\\\x = \frac{11+19}{24} \ \text{ or } \ x = \frac{11-19}{24}\\\\x = \frac{30}{24} \ \text{ or } \ x = \frac{-8}{24}\\\\x = \frac{5}{4} \ \text{ or } \ x = -\frac{1}{3}

Now use those roots to form these steps

x = \frac{5}{4} \ \text{ or } \ x = -\frac{1}{3}\\\\4x = 5 \ \text{ or } \ 3x = -1\\\\4x - 5 =0 \ \text{ or } \ 3x+1 = 0\\\\(4x-5)(3x+1) = 0

Refer to the zero product property for more info.

Therefore, the original expression factors fully to (4x-5)(3x+1)

Use the FOIL rule to expand it out and you should get 12x^2-11x-5 again.

----------------------------------------------

We did that factoring so we could find the side lengths of the rectangle.

I'm using the fact that area = length*width

  • L = length = 4x-5
  • W = width = 3x+1

The order of length and width doesn't matter.

From here, we can then compute the perimeter of the rectangle

P = 2(L+W)

P = 2(4x-5+3x+1)

P = 2(7x-4)

P = 14x - 8

Suppose a van gets 22 mi/gal. The distance traveled D(g) is a function of the gallons of gas used
babymother [125]

Answer:

a) Table and graph showed

b) The distance will be 231 miles

c) Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

We know the van gets 22 mi/gal, so the distance D in miles traveled by the van can be expressed as  

D(g)=22g, being g the number of gallons of gas used

a) The graph of the function D and its corresponding table of values is shown below.  

b) If the van used g=10.5 gallons of gas, the distance would be:

D(10.5)=22 x 10.5 = 231 miles

c) The values of g are real in nature because they represent the amount of gas consumed by the van and it can be any real positive number. Being D a linear function of g, it also happens to take positive real values. Then it makes sense to connect the points with lines.

A high school spends approximately $9,000 hosting a football games (e.G. The hourly pay for staff, the electricity, water usage,
Yanka [14]

Answer:

<u>$4800</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

The expected net income is the probability when rains multiplied by net income (profit) summed with the probability of not raining with that days net income multiplied.

First, Chance of rain = 12% = 12/100 = 0.12

Profit/Loss = Income - Cost

Income is 5000

Cost = 9000

So,

Loss = 5000 - 9000 = 4000

Or, Net Income (profit) = - 4000

Now, Change of not raining = 100 - 12 = 88% = 88/100 = 0.88

Profit = Income - Cost

Income = 15,000

Cost = 9000

Net Income (profit) = 15000 - 9000 = 6000

So, we can write the expected net income as:

<u>Expected NI </u>= (0.12)(-4000) + (0.88)(6000) = <u>$4800</u>
