So, you have 3/4x + 5/8 = 4x. We can do this in two ways. Since fractions are harder to deal with, we can turn the fractions into whole numbers.
First we need to find the LCD (Least Common Denominator) between 4 and 8, which is 8. So multiply the 3/4x by 2/2, which gives you an equivalent fraction of 6/8x.
So now we have 6/8x + 5/8 = 4x. Now multiply both sides by 8, to get rid of the denominators of the fractions. That gives us 6x + 5 = 32x. Now use the subtraction property of equality to subtract 6x from both sides giving us 5 = 26x.
Now you can use the division property of equality to divide 26 on both sides, which gives us x = 5/26.
Hope this helps. :D Feel free to ask any other questions, and if you have any questions about my explanation, don't hesitate to ask.
The answer is “the cost for every 1 lawn mowed”. This is because the graph is showing an increase in price every time another lawn is mowed.
Answer:
d.
Step-by-step explanation:
Left line is defined when x < 1 (x is less than 1). The point is not full and that means that x = 1 is not included.
Right line is defined when x is greater or equal to one x ≥ 1.
Options that have x < 1 and x ≥ 1 are b and d, so the answer is one of those.
Equations of the lines are in slope-intercept form y = mx + b, where m is slope and b is y-intercept.
Right line has steeper slope than left line, so the slope of right line will have bigger absolute value. That is the case with option d. (Left line has slope -1 and right one has slope -2, absolute value of right slope is bigger.)
You could also check with y-intercepts. Left line has y-intercept at y = 2 and left line is defined when x < 1. Only option d meets these conditions.
Answer:
12.5 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
budget: 200
fix cost: 50
hourly rate: 12
hours: ?
----
First we deduct the fix 50 dollars cost from the total budget.
Then we divide the remaining amount with the hourly rate
( 200 - 50 ) / 12 = ?
? = 12.5 hours
