A1 = 35x+25
Good guys = 40x
35x+25 = 40x
subtract 3x x from each side
25 = 5x
divide each side by 5
x = 25/5 = 5
so 5 hours they would be the same cost, anything over 5 hours and A1 would be better
so X>5 for A1 to be the better price
Answer:
3(n+5)=-30
Step-by-step explanation:
Three times the sum of a number and 5 is - 30
Vocabulary:
times = multiplication, represented with *
sum = addition, represented by +
unknown number = n
Three * the sum of a number and 5
The sum of a number and 5 is the same as saying n + 5
So we are multiplying 3 by n + 5
Because n is an unknown variable we have to separate the sum of n and 5 from being multiplied by 3 with parenthesis. We do this because if we want to multiply 3 by the sum of n and 5. If we put 3 * n + 5 we are only multiplying the unknown variable by 3 not including the 5 that is added to it.
So we get 3( n + 5 ) is -30
3(n+5)=-30 is the answer.
Answer:
Number of customers (double taco)= 45
Step-by-step explanation:
Giving the following information:
Double taco order rate= 15% = 0.15
Total number of customers= 300
<u>To calculate the number of customers that order two tacos, we need to use the following formula:</u>
Number of customers (double taco)= Double taco order rate*total number of taco
Number of customers (double taco)= 0.15*300
Number of customers (double taco)= 45
Multiplying a negative number and another negative number makes the product positive.
So (-2.1)*(-1.4) = 2.94
