ANSWER

EXPLANATION
We want to find the value of a for which the binomial, 2a-1 is smaller than the value of the binomial 7-1.2a by 7.
This means that, when we subtract 2a-1 from 7-1.2a, we should get 7.

Answer:
(x, y, z) = (-1, 0, -3)
Step-by-step explanation:
We notice that the coefficients of z are such that elimination of the z term from the equations is made easy.
Adding equations 1 and 2:
(2x -3y -2z) +(x +3y +2z) = (4) +(-7)
3x = -3
x = -1
Adding equations 2 and 3:
(x +3y +2z) +(-4x -4y -2z) = (-7) +(10)
-3x -y = 3
Substituting for x, we get ...
(-3)(-1) -y = 3
0 = y . . . . . . . . . . . add y-3 to both sides
Then z can be found from any equation. Substituting for x and y in the second equation gives ...
-1 +2z = -7
2z = -6 . . . . . add 1
z = -3 . . . . . .divide by 2
The solution is (x, y, z) = (-1, 0, -3).
Answer:
$13.10 represents the rate of change
Step-by-step explanation:
13.1 is the only value in the equation with a variable (g). There is an additional $13.10 charge for every gigabyte used over the limit, and this is the rate of change.
For example, if 5 gigabytes were used over the limit, the charge would be 13.1(5) or $65.50
Answer:
yes
Step-by-step explanation:
This relation is a function
Each input value goes to only one output value so the relation is a function
At Gino's you pay $16 plus $8 per pizza.
At Venetian's you pay $24 plus $6 per pizza.
Let the number of pizzas be x.
At Gino's you pay 16 + 8x
At Venetian's you pay 24 + 6x
Set the two costs equal and solve for x to find out the number of pizzas for which both costs are the same.
16 + 8x = 24 + 6x
16 + 2x = 24
2x = 8
x = 4
Each place gives you a free pizza.
4 pizzas plus the free pizza equals 5 pizzas.
If you need 5 pizzas (including the free one), both parlors cost the same.
If you need fewer than 5 pizzas, use Gino's.
If you need more than 5 pizzas, use Venetian's.
