Okay!
The most important part of this problem is knowing which inequality sign to use
Greater than >
Less Than <
Equal to .. =
Greater or equal to ≥
Less than or equal to ≤
Charlotte needs AT LEAST 5,000 votes, meaning she has to have 5,000 votes <u>or more </u>
That means we use this sign → ≤
Now lets set up an equation to find how many more we need
5,000 ≤ 3,187 + X
solve for X
1,813 ≤ X
Hope I helped :) Sorry for the long explanation
Answer:
Taylor's conjecture is correct because the population of 2000 in the city was more compared to the population in 2010 in the same city. This is because the population in 2000 was 935,426 and it had 848 more people in that same city compared to in 2010. Therefore Taylor is right since 2000's population is 848 more than 2010's population...
You can build as many numbers as you like: just pick three primes and repeat them as required.
The only caution is that you have to pick large enough primes to make sure that the result is larger than 1000.
Since 
, it is enough that the prime repeating three times is larger than 10.
So, for example, we can pick
- 2, not repeating
- 3, repeating twice
- 11, repeating 3 times
The result is
The answer is A. If there are 3 thirds (1/3s) per yard and there are 6 yards, 3*6=18. Because the last cut will make two 1/3-yard segments, the answer is 17 cuts and not 18.
Answer:
C 20
Step-by-step explanation:
Set up equations:
Laguna's Truck Rentals
y = 2x + 20
Where x is the number of miles driven and y is the total price
<em>How did we get to this equation?</em>
Well, the company charges $2 for every mile driven. Therefore, by multiplying 2 and x, you will find the price paid per mile. The 20 (which represents $20) is the one-time payment you pay for simply using the service.
Salvatori's Truck Rentals
y = 3x
Where x is the number of miles driven and y is the total price
<em>How did we get to this equation?</em>
For this company, you only pay for how many miles you drive. There isn't a one-time payment like there is for Laguna's Truck Rentals. Therefore, you only need to multiply the price per mile ($3) by the number of miles driven (x).
Set the equations equal to each other:
2x + 20 = 3x
<em>Why would you do this?</em>
We need to set the equations equal to each other because we need to find the point at which the prices are the same. When two things are the same, they are equal. Therefore, we get rid of the y variable (which represents the total price) because we want to find the value of x when the equations are equal to one another.
Solve:
2x + 20 = 3x
Subtract 2x on both sides:
2x + 20 = 3x
-2x -2x
20 = x
When x is equal to 20, or when the number of miles driven is 20, the total price of the Truck Rental services is the same.
Hope this helps :)
