Answer:

8 - 4 x = -(2 x - 17)

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:

-4 (x - 2) = -2 (x - 17/2)

Hint: | Put the fractions in x - 17/2 over a common denominator.

Put each term in x - 17/2 over the common denominator 2: x - 17/2 = (2 x)/2 - 17/2:

-4 (x - 2) = -2(2 x)/2 - 17/2

Hint: | Combine (2 x)/2 - 17/2 into a single fraction.

(2 x)/2 - 17/2 = (2 x - 17)/2:

-4 (x - 2) = -21/2 (2 x - 17)

Hint: | In (-2 (2 x - 17))/2, divide -2 in the numerator by 2 in the denominator.

(-2)/2 = (2 (-1))/2 = -1:

-4 (x - 2) = -1 (2 x - 17)

Hint: | Write the linear polynomial on the left hand side in standard form.

Expand out terms of the left hand side:

Answer: 8 - 4 x = -(2 x - 17)

Missing info:
Turkey Sizes: 
<span>small - 2kg - 3.9kg </span>
<span>medium - 4kg - 5.4kg </span>
<span>large - 5.5kg - 7.2kg </span>
<span>extra large - 7.3kg - 9.2kg </span>

<span>Turkey Prices: </span>
<span>Small / Medium - £5.99 per kg </span>
<span>Large / Extra Large - £4.99 per kg 
</span>
3/4 lb x 14 persons = (3*14)/4 = 42/4 = 10.5 lbs

1 lb = 450 grams

10.5 lbs * 450grams/lb = 4,725 grams

1 kg = 1000 grams

<span>4,725 grams * 1kg/1000 grams = 4725 kg / 1000 = 4.725 kg.

4.725 kg is under the Medium size of the Turkey.

Medium sized turkey costs </span>£<span>5.99 per kg.

4.725 kg * </span>£5.99 per kg = £<span>28.30

A turkey would cost </span> £<span>28.30 for 14 people.</span>

A taxi cab driver charges a $2.00 initial fee and $1.75 for each mile.
umka21 [38]

1. She can travel 18 miles. Subtract 35 - 2 (initial fee) to have 33. divide 33 by 1.75 to get 18.85. To check how much her total would be, use inverse operations. 18.85 * 1.75 = 32.9875. 32.9875 + 2 = 34.9875. It is barely under $35 but still in her budget.

2. 20m * $1.75 = $35. $70 - $35 = $35. Yes, she can cover the fare. Samantha has more than needed. She can afford the taxi fare and still have money left for future use.

1. Write the equation for a line in point slope form that had a slope of 4 and passes through (1,1)
Dahasolnce [82]

Solution:

<u>Note that:</u>

  • Slope = m = 4
  • Given point: (x₁,y₁) = (1,1) [x₁ = 1; y₁ = 1]
  • Formula: y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

<u>Use the formula to convert the line in point slope form.</u>

  • y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)
  • y - 1 = 4(x - 1)

The equation of the line (In point slope form) is y - 1 = 4(x - 1).
