Answer:
35

Explanation:
Let x be equal to Elise’s number.
We can set up our equation like this:

(x-14)(-3)=-63
Expand the parentheses
-3x+42=-63
Subtract both sides by 42
-3x+42-42=-63-42
-3x=-105
Divide both sides by -3
-3x/-3=-105/-3
x=35

I hope this helps!

marysya [2.9K]
2^{x+5}=3^{1-x}\ \ \ \ \ /log_2()\\\\log_22^{x+5}=log_23^{1-x}\\\\x+5=(1-x)log_23\\\\x+5=log_23-xlog_23\\\\x+xlog_23=log_23-5\\\\x(1+log_23)=log_23-5\ \ \ \ /:(1+log_23)

x=\frac{log_23-5}{1+log_23}\\-------------\\log_23\approx1.5849625\\----------------\\x\approx\frac{1.5849625-5}{1+1.5849625}\approx-1.321

Colton earns $35 per lawn he mows. In kne day he mows four lawns and he works five days a week for 20 weeks a year. His expenses
yanalaym [24]

Answer:

1) Consider that he makes $1189 every two weeks engaged with work

2) An estimate of the opportunity cost of going on the fishing trip is $1450 in two weeks

3). If he decides to buy the truck, he has to work for about 7 weeks before going on the fishing trip

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given data

Total revenue from lawn mowing per year = 35 × 4× 5×20 = $1400

Similarly total operating costs = $2110

Total profit per annum = $11890

However total revenue per every 2 weeks = $1189

To buy the truck, sell his and go on the fishing trip it will cost = 5200-1500+250 =$3950 hence he has to work for about 6.64 or approximately 7 weeks before going on the fishing trip

2) Opportunity cost will factor in the cost of having someone work for him while away

The cost is = $250 + $120/day

Hence in two weeks it will cost him $1450

3) He has to work for about 7 weeks to be able to afford the truck
