Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

6(x - 1) = 9(x - 4)

Step 2: Solve for x

Distribute: 6x - 6 = 9x - 36
Subtract 6x on both sides: -6 = 3x - 36
Isolate x term: 30 = 3x
Isolate x: 10 = x
Rewrite: x = 10

Step 3: Check

Plug in x into the original equation to verify it's a solution.

Substitute in x: 6(10 - 1) = 9(10 - 4)
Subtract: 6(9) = 9(6)

Here we see that the 2 expressions are exactly the same.

∴ x = 10 is the solution to the equation.

Question 4

Elanso [62]

Answer:

a $A = 30 + 0.45 n$

b $A = 90.3$

c 0 customers

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Base\ Amount = 30$

$Rate = 0.45$ per customer

Solving (a): Amount (A) on n customers

This is calculated as:

$A = Base\ Amount + Rate * n$

$A = 30 + 0.45 * n$

$A = 30 + 0.45 n$

Solving (b): Amount on 134 customers

In this case: n = 134

So:

$A = 30 + 0.45 * 134$

$A = 30 + 60.3$

$A = 90.3$

Solving (c): Customers at noon.

At noon, the amount is 30.

So:

$A = 30 + 0.45 n$

$30 = 30 + 0.45n$

Collect like terms

$0.45n = 30 - 30$

$0.45n =0$

$n = 0$

Gavin plans to mix a batch of tangerine paint. He expects to have a total of 5 3/10 ounces of paint after he mixes the amounts o

SVEN [57.7K]

Tangerine is simply color orange, which is an addition of red and yellow colors. To analyze if the portions written below are reasonable, the given sum must equal to the sum of the individual red and yellow parts.

Total Red + Total Yellow = 5(3/10)
3(9/10) + 2(3/8) ? 5(3/10
3.45 ? 1.5
3.45 ≠ 1.5

Since they are not equal, then it means the portions are unreasonable.
