Let's say the number is 9. 10% of 9 is 0.9. Add that to 9 and you would get 9.9. 10% of 9.9 is 0.99. Subtract and you would get 8.91. Then you could do the rest.

Yvette is starting a jewelry business. She spends $120 on supplies and makes 18 necklaces. She wants to earn a profit equal to 3

kiruha [24]

Yvette wants to earn a profit of $360, then. That means she has to make a total of $480. 480 divided by 18 is 26 and 2/3. That basically rounds up to $26.67.

480 = 18x

360 = 18x - 120

120(3) = 18x - 120

(I'm not that good at this, so don't take my word for it)

X f(x) = 2x-1 -2 Please help

Kobotan [32]

By evaluating the linear equation, we can complete the table:

x: -2 | -1 | 0 | 1 | 2 |

y: -3 | -1 | 1 | 3 | 5 |

<h3>How to complete the given table?</h3>

Here we want to complete the table:

x: -2 | -1 | 0 | 1 | 2 |

y: | | | | |

To get the correspondent values in the "y" row, you just need to evaluate the linear function in the given values of x.

Here the function is:

f(x) = 2x - 1

Evaluating it we get:

f(-2) = 2*(-2) + 1 = -3

f(-1) = 2*(-1) + 1 = -1

f(0) = 2*0 + 1 = 1

f(1) = 2*1 + 1 = 3

f(2) = 2*2 + 1 = 5

Now we just put these values in their correspondent place on the table.

x: -2 | -1 | 0 | 1 | 2 |

y: -3 | -1 | 1 | 3 | 5 |

Do the phrases 6 less a number y and 6 less than a number y mean the same thing? Explain. A. No, they do not both mean the same

Yuri [45]

Answer:

B. Yes, they both mean the same thing. They can also both be represented by the expression y - 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Phrase 1: 6 less a number y

Phrase 2: 6 less than a number y

Mathematically,

Phrase 1 can be represented as follows;

$y - 6$

Mathematically,

Phrase 2 can be represented as follows;

$y - 6$

Since the representation of both phrases are the same, then option B answers the question.
