Answer:
Option A) Combined, with a saving of x-y cents
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the following in the question:
The rate to mail a package is x cents for first pound and y cents for each additional pound.
Weights of packages =
3 pounds and 5 pounds
Cost of combined package:
Total weight = 8 pounds
Cost of sending separately:
Difference between cost of sending the packages separately and combined
Thus, sending the packages combined is a cheaper method with a saving of (x-y) cents
Thus, the correct answer is:
Option A) Combined, with a saving of (x-y) cents
Answer:
y = |x - 1|
Step-by-step explanation:
This graph is the standard graph of y = |x|, shifted 1 unit right. To shift 1 unit right, we have to replace x by x - 1. This works because it replaces f(1) with f(0), f(2) with f(1), etc., shifting the entire graph right.
(1/2)(n - 4) - 3 = 3 - (2n + 3
Distribute the (1/2) on the left and the -1 on the right.
(1/2)n - 2 - 3 = 3 - 2n - 3
Combine like terms.
(1/2)n - 5 = -2n
Add 2n to both sides and add 5 to both sides
2.5n = 5
Divide both sides by 2.5
n = 2
You can put them vertically
then subtract them
but if you do it, it will be 0=-10 that doesn't make sense.
So the answer is that there is no answer!
