The growth rate is the a value, or the number before the x value. The answer would be 15.
7(1 - 2x) = -x + 33
Distribute 7 inside the parentheses.
7 - 14x = -x + 33
Subtract 7 from both sides.
-14x = -x + 26
Add x to both sides.
-13x = 26
Divide both sides by -13.
x = -2
So we know that they spend $100 on the candles. In order to make a $125 profit, they must sell $225 worth of candles. Each candle sells for $4.50, so:
4.5x > 225 is the inequality for that. It just means $4.50 times the number of candles has to be more than the $225 we need. To simplify it, just divide both sided by 4.5:
x > 50
They have to sell more than 50 candles. Make sense?
Answer:
A. 23+x=140
Step-by-step explanation:
The angle addition postulate states that the measure of a larger angle formed by two or more smaller angles placed side by side is the the sum of the smaller angles. The angle addition postulate states that if B is in the interior of AOC , then:
m∠AOB + m∠BOC = m∠AOC.
From the image:
∠NOP = ∠NOQ + ∠QOP
∠NOP = 140, ∠NOQ = x, ∠QOP = 23
substituting:
140 = x + 23
x = 140 - 23 = 117
∠NOQ = 117°
900,000=10*90,000
So there are 90,000 tens in 900,000.
