-24x -15 = -27. Step by step explanation on how to solve this problem.

Jet001 [13]

Answer:

x = $\frac{1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

- 24x - 15 = - 27 ( add 15 to both sides )

- 24x = - 12 ( divide both sides by - 24 )

x = $\frac{-12}{-24}$ = $\frac{1}{2}$

Marisa wants to buy a quality phone for least $200.She has already saved $125 and plans to save an additional $10 each week.Writ

eduard

Answer:

The inequality can be represented as:

$10w+125\geq200$

where $w$ represents the number of weeks in which Maria will be able to buy a phone for least $200.

On solving it we get : $w\geq 7.5$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Maria wants to buy a phone for at least $200.

She has savings of $125.

She plans to save $10 every week.

To write an inequality for the situation.

Solution:

Let the number of weeks in which Maria will be able to buy a phone be = $w$

If she saves $10 each week.

Then, in $w$ weeks she will save in dollars = $10w$

She already has savings = $125

So her total savings in $w$ weeks in dollars will be = $10w+125$

She wants to buy a phone for at least $200.

Thus, the inequality can be represented as:

$10w+125\geq200$

Solving for $w$

Subtracting both sides by 125.

$10w+125-125\geq 200-125$

$10w\geq 75$

Dividing both sides by 10.

$\frac{10w}{10}\geq \frac{75}{10}$

$w\geq 7.5$

Thus Maria needs at least 7.5 weeks to be able to buy a phone for atleast $200.

Part A: Determine if the expression is one of our special products. If so, identify it by its general form:

kondaur [170]

Answer:

Part A: Yes, it is (a - b)².

Part B: a² - 2ab + b² => (x - 6)² = x² - 12x + 36.

Part C: x² - 12x + 36.

Part A: Not a special product.

Part B: Binomial distribution => (x + 8)(x + 1) = x² + 9x + 8.

Part C: x² + 9x + 8.

Part A: Yes, it is (a + b)²

Part B: a² + 2ab + b² => (3x + 2)² = 9x² + 12x + 4.

Part C: 9x² + 12x + 4.

Part A: Yes, it is (a + b)(a - b), a difference of squares.

Part B: a² - b² => 4x² - 49

Part C: 4x² - 49

Part A: Not a special product.

Part B: Binomial distribution => (x - 5)(2x - 5) = 2x² - 15x + 25.

Part C: 2x² - 15x + 25

What is<br> -1 5/6 - (-3 1/4) ?

lions [1.4K]

Answer:

$1\frac{5}{12}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Eliminating a negative and changing our operation

$1\frac{5}{6} +3\frac{1}{4}$

Rewriting our equation with parts separated

$-1-\frac{5}{6} +3+\frac{1}{4}$

Solving the whole number parts

$-1+3=2$

Solving the fraction parts

$-\frac{5}{6} +\frac{1}{4} =[?]$

Find the LCD of 5/6 and 1/4 and rewrite to solve with the equivalent fractions.

LCD = 12

$-\frac{10}{12} +\frac{3}{12}=-\frac{7}{12}$

Combining the whole and fraction parts

$2-\frac{7}{12} =1\frac{5}{12}$
