Answer:
C = 6.75n + 50
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation for the cost of renting the party room can be written in the form;
C= mn+k ......i
Where C = cost
n = number of people
Substituting the 2 cases into the equation we have,
Case 1
117.5 = 10m + k ......1
Case 2
151.25 = 15m + k .....2
Subtracting eqn 1 from 2 we have
151.25 - 117.50 = 15m - 10m
5m = 33.75
m = 33.75/5 = 6.75
Substituting m = 6.75 into eqn 1, we have
117.50 = 10(6.75) + k
k = 117.5 - 67.50
k = 50
Therefore, rewriting the eqn i, we have
C = 6.75n + 50
Answer:
x = 2
2x + 1 = -x +7 Add and subtract
3x = 6 divide
x = 2
To start to figure this problem out, we can first figure out how many more pages you read in an hour compared to your sister.
50 - 40 = 10, so you read 10 more pages in 1 hour.
Now we have to figure out how much more you would read in 1/2 an hour. Since 1/2 an hour is 1/2 of an hour, we can divide 10 by 2 to figure out how many more pages you read in an hour compared to your sister. 10 divided by 2 is 5, so you read 5 more pages every half hour.
= -2
y= 2x+6. y= -2x-2
2x+6= -2x-2
+2x. +2x
____________
4x+6= -2
4x= -8
x=-2
