marshall27 [118]
Answer: $2,000,000

Explanation: Let X be the amount of Avery's investment. Since she will receive $40,000 every year for the next six years, the most she will earn is
$40,000 × 6 = $240,000.

Since she wants to earn 12% on her investment, her earnings is equal to 12% of X = 0.12X. Since the most she will earn is $240,000,

0.12X ≤ 240,000
X ≤ 240,000 ÷ 0.12 = 2,000,000 (Divide both sides by 0.12)

Hence X ≤ 2,000,000. Therefore, the most amount she should invest is $2,000,000.

Jay is cutting a roll of biscuit dough into slices that are 3/8 inch thick. If the roll is 101/2 inches long, how many slices ca
IceJOKER [234]
The roll of the biscuit is 101/2 inches long. It has to be cut into slices that are 3/8 inches thick.
Then
The number of slices = (101/2)/(3/8)
                                   = (101/2) * (8/3)
                                   = 808/6
                                   = 404/3
                                   = 134.66
So the biscuit dough can be cut into 134 slices approximately. A small part will be left. This is the only way to find out the number of slices the biscuit dough can be sliced into. Hope this helps you in understanding the way it is done.

Solve for x.
Daniel [21]

Answer:

x=-\frac{9}{4} \\ or \:\\x = -2\frac{1}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

-2 (x + 1/4)+1=5\\\\-2\left(x+\frac{1}{4}\right)+1=5\\\\\mathrm{Subtract\:}1\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides}\\\\-2\left(x+\frac{1}{4}\right)+1-1=5-1\\\\Simplify\\-2\left(x+\frac{1}{4}\right)=4\\\\\mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}-2\\\frac{-2\left(x+\frac{1}{4}\right)}{-2}=\frac{4}{-2}\\\\Simplify\\x+\frac{1}{4}=-2\\\\\mathrm{Subtract\:}\frac{1}{4}\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides}\\\\x+\frac{1}{4}-\frac{1}{4}=-2-\frac{1}{4}\\\\Simplify\\x=-\frac{9}{4}\\\\x = -2\frac{1}{4}
