Answer:
The sum of two numbers is 240. The larger number is 6 less than twice the smaller. Find the numbers.
----------
Let the smaller be "x" ; Larger is "2x-6"
EQUATION:
x + 2x-6 = 240
3x= 246
x = 82 (smaller)
2x-6 = 158 (larger)
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Number of monthly calls = 475
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Plan 1 = $30 per month unlimited calls
Plan 2 = $11 + $0.04(per call)
Find:
Number of monthly calls, plan 1 better than plan 2
Computation:
Plan 1 (Cost) < Plan 2 (Cost)
30 < 11 + 0.04(x)
19 < 0.04(x)
475 < (x)
Number of monthly calls = 475
So what are we trying to find the reduced fraction or inverse operation
