Step 3:
14/7x-6/3=5
2x-2=5
2x=5+2
2x=7
x=7/2
Answer:
33
Step-by-step explanation:
49-15=34
34/17=2
For this sequence, you can write this function:
f(x)=15+2(x-1)
Check:
f(18)=15+2(18-1)
f(18)=15+2(17)
f(18)=15+34
f(18)=49
So:
f(10)=15+2(10-1)
f(10)=15+2(9)
f(10)=15+18
f(10)=33
One ounce is one-sixteenth of a pound since there is 16 ounces in a pound.
7(10 visits) ≤ 68
70 ≤ 68
Not Viable
7(9 visits) ≤ 68
63 ≤ 68
Viable
The first solution is not viable because 10 visits will give a total cost of $70 per month, which is $2 over his monthly budget of $68.
The second solution is viable. He could visit the gym a maximum of 9 times per month for a total of $63 a month and that will be under his $68 monthly budget.
Hope this helps! :)
