Answer: It is a more efficient way to find x2k than by multiplying x by itself the appropriate number of times.
Step-by-step explanation: Please find the attached file for the solution
For starters, create an equation to show David's earnings. We can do this using Danielle's as a basis, which is set up as y=(# of hours)x+(bonus). This gives us y=12x+80. Now, as we need both their ys to be equal, we just set both equations equal to each other, making 15x+50=12x+80. Now, we solve for x, starting with 15x+50=12x+80, subtracting 12x from both sides to get 3x+50=80, subtracting 50 from both sides to get 3x=30, and dividing three from both sides to get x=10. To check, we just plug in our answer to both equations and see if the ys match up. With Danielle's equation, we get y=15(10)+50=150+50=200 and with David's equation, we get y=12(10)+80=120+80=200, proving that our answer is correct.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1. 78 = 0.15x
78 / 0.15 = x
520 = x.....so 78 is 15% of 520
2. | 3x - 2 | = 8 | x + 1 | = 1
3x - 2 = 8 -(3x - 2) = 8 x + 1 = 1 -(x + 1) = 1
3x = 8 + 2 -3x + 2 = 8 x = 1 - 1 -x - 1 = 1
3x = 10 -3x = 6 x = 0 -x = 2
x = 10/3 x = -2 x = -2
ur answer is : x = -2
3. 3y - 4x + 5 = 0
3y = 4x - 5
y = 4/3x - 5/3
slope = 4/3
