1. <span>-0.9x+2.8=4.1
First subtract 2.8 from both sides.
-0.9x = 1.3
Now divide both sides by -0.9.
x = -1.4444..
This can be rounded to -1.44
</span><span>c) -1.44
2. Jordan has 650 pennies. He'll give 85 to his brother and split the rest with his sister.
</span>d) 85+2x=650
<u><em>function </em></u>: p(x) = 65 + 25(x)
for 3 sells
for 10 sells
So,
140 ≤ p(x) ≤ 315
Answer:
First backpacker should receive $4 and the second one $2
Step-by-step explanation:
notice that the total amount of rice for the three is 600 g.
Then, the first one that gave 400 g contributed 400 out of 600, that is 400/600 = 2/3
The second one contributed 200 out of 600, that is 200/600 = 1/3
then the first one should receive 2/3 of the $6 = (2/3) x 6 = $4
and the second one should receive 1/3 of the %6 = (1/3) x 6 = $2
