(2x + 5) / (3x + 5) as ur answer
Answer:
Randy has eight $5 bills and nine $1 bills
Step-by-step explanation:
Randy needs $50.00
And we know that he his only $1.00 short, so he has $49.00
let's define:
x = number of $1 bills that he has
y = number of $5 bills that he has.
then:
x*$1 + y*$5 = $49
We know that he has one more $1 bills than $5 bills.
we can write this as
x = y + 1
So we have a system of two equations and two variables:
x*$1 + y*$5 = $49
x = y + 1
First we can see that the variable "x" is isolated in the second equation, now we can replace that in the other equation:
x*$1 + y*$5 = $49
(y + 1)*$1 + y*$5 = $49
now we can solve this for y.
y*$1 + $1 + y*$5 = $49
y*($1 + $5) = $49 - $1 = $48
y*$6 = $48
y = $48/$6 = 8
He has 8 $5 bills
and we know that:
x = y + 1
x = 8 + 1 = 9
he has 9 $1 bills.
Part A: Explain why the x-coordinates of the points where the graphs of
the equations y = 4-x and y = 2x + 3 intersect are the solutions of the
equation
4-x = 2x + 3.
Because the point where the graphs intersect is a point that meets both rules (functions) y = 4 - x and y = 2x + 3 meaning that y from y = 4 - x equals y from 2x + 3 and also both x have the same value.
Part B: Make tables to find the solution to 4-x = 2x + 3. Take the integer values of x between -3 and 3.
x values 4 -x 2x + 3
-3 4-(-3)=7 2(-3)+3 =-3
-2 4-(-2)=6 2(-2)+3 =-1
-1 4-(-1)=5 2(-1)+3 = 1
0 4-0=4 2(0)+3 = 3
1 4-1=3 2(1)+3=5
2 4-2=2 2(2)+3 = 7
3 4-3=1 2(3)+3 = 9
The the solution is between x = 0 and x =1
Part C: How can you solve the equation 4-x = 2x + 3 graphically?
Draw in a same graph both functions y= 4 - x and y = 2x +3.
Then read the x-coordinates of the intersection point. That is the solution.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = number of hours to pull weed in a day
Let y = number of hours to now lawn in a day
It takes her an average of 3 hours to pull weeds and an average of 2.5 hours to mow the lawn. She can work no more than 8 hours a day.
This means
3x + 2.5y is lesser than/ equal to 8
She charges $50 to weed and $65 to mow the lawn.
This means she charges
50x +65y
She needs to cover her expenses of $120 to make a profit. This means she needs to earn an amount greater than or equal to $120
50x + 65y greater than or equal to 120
