If we have a number represented by n, we have 20 is equal to, so 20=something. That something is "5 less than twice a number". 5 less than something means something-5, and something-5=20. Since 5 is less than twice a number, and twice a number is n+n=2n, we have 2n-5=20
Actually solving the problem, we can start by adding 5 to both sides, resulting in 2n=25. Next, we can divide both sides by 2 to get n=12.5
Answer:
a. C(x) = $16, if 0 ≤ x ≤ 10
C(x) = 2x - 4 if x > 10
b. Independent: Number of DVD rentals
Dependent: Monthly cost of rentals
c. $26
Step-by-step explanation:
a. The cost (C) of renting 'x' DVDs is given by:
If 10 ≤ x ≤ 10
C(x) = $16
If x > 10
C(x) = 16 + 2(x-10)
C(x) = 2x - 4
b. Since the cost depends on the number of DVD rentals, cost is the dependent variable and number of DVD rentals is the independent variable.
c. For x = 15:
C(15) = 2*15 - 4
C(15) = $26
It costs $26 to tent 15 DVDs in one month
Answer:
It's very simple. In 4 decimal digits there are 10,000 (0000 to 9999) possible values. The odds of any one of them coming up randomly is one in 10,000. A specific "4 digit number" would have 1/9000 chance, since there are 9000 4 digit numbers (1000-9999).
Step-by-step explanation:
To find it directly
A = 2 pi r h
A is proportional to rh
factor 2
A is multiplied by 2 * 2 = 4
factor 3
3 * 3 =9
factor 5
5 * 5 = 25
factor 10
10 * 10 = 100
(b) the increase in A by factor x is x^2
c(20)^2 = 400
Answer: Therefore it must be the first one, 40
Step-by-step explanation: Vertical angles are always congruent, which means that they are equal. x = 40
