Answer: m=-1
Step-by-step explanation: Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :
m-(-(4+m)+2)=0
1.1 Pull out like factors :
2m + 2 = 2 • (m + 1)
2.1 Solve : 2 = 0
This equation has no solution.
A a non-zero constant never equals zero.
2.2 Solve : m+1 = 0
Subtract 1 from both sides of the equation :
m = -1
I like the 'question mark' at the end:
26 letters (English), 10 digits (0,1,...9)
26*26*10*10*10 = 676000
Now, this was for LLDDD (Letter Letter Digit Digit Digit)
It seems this is the order they want. Other wise, one should multiply by all the combinations in the order: LDLDD, DLLDD, etc ... (10 combinations), but again it seems they want this LLDDD
So 676000
let h be the number of hours then
A → C = 150h + 250 ( where C is charge )
B → C = 175h + 150
for 26 hours
A → C = (150 × 26 ) + 250 = 3900 + 250 = $4150
B → C = (175 × 26 ) + 150 = 4550 + 150 = $4700
Attorney A is cheaper for 26 hours, thus better deal
Equate the 2 equations to find hours they charge the same
175h + 150 = 150h + 250 ( subtract 150h from both sides )
25h + 150 = 250 ( subtract 150 from both sides )
25h = 100 ( divide both sides by 25 )
h = 4 ← number of hours when charges for both are equal
Thus Attorney A becomes a better deal at 5 hours
Answer:
it is 8.39. hope this helps.
