What is the sun of p and q ?

Since it is linear, we can find a linear equation to represent the relationship.  We have two points (3,6) and (11,15).  The slope is 9/8.  So we have an equation:

y = (9/8)x + b

Plug in (3,6) to find out that b = 21/8
So our equation that represents this linear relationship is:

y = (9/8)x + 21/8

Now to figure out what "p" is, we plug in x = -1, and we get p = 1.5
To figure out what "q" is, we plug in x = 7, and we get q = 10.5

Therefore the sum of p and q:
1.5 + 10.5 = 12

There are two of them. 

I don't know a mechanical way to 'solve' for them.

One can be found by trial and error:

x=0 . . . . . 2^0 = 1 . . . . . 4(0) = 0 . . . . . no, that doesn't work
x=1 . . . . . 2^1 = 2 . . . . . 4(1) = 4 . . . . . no, that doesn't work
x=2 . . . . . 2^2 = 4 . . . . . 4(2) = 8 . . . . . no, that doesn't work
x=3 . . . . . 2^3 = 8 . . . . . 4(3) = 12 . . . . no, that doesn't work
<em>x=4</em> . . . . . 2^4 = <em><u>16</u></em> . . . . 4(4) = <em><u>16</u></em> . . . . Yes !  That works !       yay !

For the other one, I constructed tables of values for 2^x and (4x)
in a spread sheet, then graphed them, and looked for the point
where the graphs of the two expressions cross.

The point is near, but not exactly,         <em>x = 0.30990693...

</em>
If there's a way to find an analytical expression for the value, it must involve
some esoteric kind of math operations that I didn't learn in high school or
engineering school, and which has thus far eluded me during my lengthy
residency in the college of hard knocks.<em> </em> If anybody out there has it, I'm
waiting with all ears.<em>

How do tou do it I xo not under stand

For x > 2, you would circle the 2, but you would not shade it in because it is greater than/ less than, not greater than or equal to/less than or equal to. From there on, you would move it to the right, because here x is greater than 2, and the numbers to the right of 2 are greater than two.

For x < 2, you would again circle the 2, but don't shade it in. And then you would make a line heading towards the left, because the numbers to the left of 2 are smaller than 2, and here, x is smaller than 2, since 2 is greater.

A value that is not the solution to either inequality is 2. 2 is not greater than 2, and 2 is not less than 2.

Anwser: The hotels charge for a call is the same for a 20 minute call.

Step-by-step explanation:

Alrighty, same deal as the last problem, set up a equality, it should look like this:

$1+.80x=$2+.75x

Move the variable to the left of the equation:

.80x-.75x=2-1

Simplify

.05x=1

x=20

Zaid and Matias, two farmers, constructed a 792 foot fence around their very large garden. Zaid agreed to construct 20% more of
likoan [24]

Answer:

1.2x +x =792

2.2x =792

And we got finally:

x =\frac{792}{2.2}= 360 ft

And the amount for Zaid would be 1.2*360 ft= 432ft

So then Zaid construc 432 ft and Matias 360 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we know that Zaid and Matias, two farmers, constructed a 792 foot fence around their very large garden so then the total is represented by 792 ft

We also know that Zaid agreed to construct 20% more of the fence than Matias did. Let's assume that the amount that construct by Matias was x then the amount constructed by Zaid would be 1.2 x representing 20% more than Matias and we can set up the following equation:

1.2x +x =792

2.2x =792

And we got finally:

x =\frac{792}{2.2}= 360 ft

And the amount for Zaid would be 1.2*360 ft= 432ft

So then Zaid construc 432 ft and Matias 360 ft
