Answer:
If twice the opposite of a number increased by five, then the result is the opposite of a number.
The asiest way to solve this is the guess and check method. It is asking you what a number doubled then by adding five is the opposite of that number. Now go through a few SINGLE digit numbers to try and solve. I hope this helps.
5 is to 7 as is to 49 is to 51
For better representation, I think the function is written as:
B(x) = 40.00 - 0.08x
This is much more comprehensive. The variable x represents the number of prints. So, if x=40 prints, we replace this to the x in the equation to find the balance B.
B = 40 - 0.08(40)
<em>B = $36.8</em>
