Answer:

  • 72

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Cost of each item:</u>

  • Pizza = $1.50, Hotdogs = $1.25

<u>Number of each item:</u>

  • Pizza = x, Hotdogs = x + 20

<u>Total cost:</u>

  • 1.25x + 1.5(x + 20) = 173
  • 1.25x + 1.5x + 30 = 173
  • 2.75x = 143
  • x = 143/2.75
  • x = 52

<u>Number of slices of pizza:</u>

  • 52 + 20 = 72

Which of the following represents a "rule of thumb" for how much
sergeinik [125]

Answer:

Rule of thumb is;

Your cumulative total student loans taken as at the time you are graduating should be less than your proposed annual starting salary.

Step-by-step explanation:

When calculating the loan a college student can afford, a rule of thumb comes in very handy which is that:

Your cumulative total student loans taken as at the time you are graduating should be less than your proposed annual starting salary.

This is because If your total student loan debt is less than your proposed annual income, it means all things being equal, you would be able to pay back the loan in about 10 years or less. However, if the loan debt exceeds your proposed income, it means you are likely to going to struggle and find it very difficult to repay your loan.

Solve for x 2|x-6|+14=38
ale4655 [162]

Answer:

x=18   x=-6

Step-by-step explanation:

2|x-6|+14=38

The first step is to isolate the absolute value

Subtract 14 from each side

2|x-6|+14-14=38-14

2|x-6|=24

Divide by 2 on each side

2/2|x-6|=24/2

|x-6| = 12

Now we can seperate the absolute value into two parts, the positive and the negative

x-6 =12          x-6 = -12

Add 6 to each side

x-6+6 =12+6     x-6+6 = -12+6

x=18                    x= -6
