Answer:

B. y=(x-1500)/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Monthly budget = x dollars

Monthly mortgage = $1500

Recreational activities = 1/4 of remaining budget

Amount in dollar spent on recreational activities =

(Monthly budget - monthly mortgage) * 1/4

(x - 1500) * 1/4

Hence,

y = (x - 1500) / 4

The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society sponsors a 5k race to raise money. It receives $55 per race entry and $10,000 in donations, bu

The net amount they raise is the amount they receive minus what they pay in expenses.

They receive:
$10,000 fixed amount in donations
$55 per person

They pay:
$15 per person

If there are x number of entries, they receive 55x from the entries.
Also, they pay 15x for the entries.

The net amount they raise is amount they receive min us amount they pay:

55x + 10,000 - 15x

which simplifies to

40x + 10,0000

They want to raise at least $55,000.
At least $55,000 means $55,000 or more.
They want to raise an amount greater than or equal to $55,000.

Now we write the inequality:

40x + 10,000 >= 55,000

Now we solve the inequality for x, the number of entries.

40x >= 45,000

x >= 1125

They must have 1125 or more race entries to raise $55,000.

Zoe wants to make a driveway.
-Dominant- [34]
Well the volume of dirt she needs to remove is equal to length*width*height=6.2*4.9*0.225=6.8355

Now let's find how many bags she needs.

To solve for this, simply divide room in bags from total room.
6.8355/0.87=7.857

Thus Zoe has barely enough, but enough bags.

The results of joes survey show that baseball is the favorite sport for 18 out of 25 people. What percent do not like sports?
charle [14.2K]

well if 18 out of 25 like it, then the remaining 7 doesn't like it, namely 7 out of 25.

if we take 25 to be the 100%, what is 7 off of if in percentage?

\bf \begin{array}{ccll} amount&\%\\ \cline{1-2} 25&100\\ 7&x \end{array}\implies \cfrac{25}{7}=\cfrac{100}{x}\implies 25x=700\implies x=\cfrac{700}{25}\implies x=28

Please simplify the following equation and show how:<br> (2x+2)^3
Natasha_Volkova [10]
<span> </span>

You can use (a+b)2 = a2+2ab+b2.
(2x - 3)2 = (2x)2 + 2(2x)(-3) + (-3)2 = 4x2 - 12x + 9

Or you can use FOIL.

(2x - 3)2 = (2x - 3)(2x - 3) = (2x)2 + (2x)(-3) + (-3)(2x) + (-3)2 = 4x2 - 12x + 9



hope I could be helpful
