Answer:
340/4
Step-by-step explanation:
i beleive the answer would be 340 = 4 but if 340/4 is an option you could choose it.
C= Cost
g= # of times games played
C = 0.50g + 3
C(0) = 0.50(0) + 3
C(0) = 0 + 3
C(0) = 3
This means that no games have been played yet and the entrance fee is $3
Part A:
x=5
4x-1 ≤19
4(5)-1 ≤19
20-1 ≤19
19 ≤19
x=5
4x-1<19
4(5)-1<19
19<19
Explanation:
In problem one the greater then symbol has a line under it, this means that the symbol now means greater then or equal to. Since 19 is equal to 19 it is correct. In problem to the greater then symbol has no line under it meaning it only means greater then. Since 19 is not greater then 19 it is false.
So basically the difference is:
≤ = greater then or equal to
< = greater then
Part B:
5x+2=47
-2 -2
5x=45
/5 /5
x=9
Explanation:
Since when you solve the equation x=9 the value 9 from the set makes the equation.
Hope this helped :)
This one you can't really make a formula for or anything, but it's fairly simple to figure out, with a bit of guess and check.
14 is really close to 15, but that's bigger, so let's try a smaller number that would work.
It has to be divisible by 2, because you've got a whole number that is 3 1/2 times the other number. (1/2 of a whole number means it's divisible by 2).
10 is divisible by 2,
10 ÷ 2 = 5
But, 10 x 3 = 30 which is much bigger than 14.
So, we've got to start with a smaller number.
Let's try something really small, like 4. We could try 2, but 2 x 3 = 6, which, even with 1/2 of 2, isn't nearly close to 14.
Now, 4 x 3 = 12
That's quite close to 14.
And 1/2 of 4 is 2.
All we do now is add 12 to 2 and see if it works.
12 + 2 = 14
14 = 14
This one works.
That means that Gina volunteered for 4 hours, because 3 1/2 x 4 = 14.
