Answer:

5 shirts

Step-by-step explanation:

we can use the problem to get an equation:

65+15x=50+20x

subtract 50 from each side to get:

15+15x=20x

subtract 15x from each side to get:

15=5x

divide each side by 5 to get your answer:

x=5

Solve the inequality 3x^2 + 10x - 8 < 0​
Ksivusya [100]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given, 3x−2<2x+1

⇒3x−2x<1+2

⇒x<3orx∈(−∞,3)

The lines y=3x−2 and y=2x+1 both will intersect at x=3

Clearly, the dark line shows the solution of 3x−2<2x+1.

A contractor is building a fenced-in area at a daycare. The area will be rectangular with the length of its base equal to half t
AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

The length of fencing will be 300\ ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

Find the dimensions of the rectangle

we know that

The area of a rectangle is equal to

A=bh

In this problem we have

A=5,000\ ft^{2}

so

5,000=bh -----> equation A

b=\frac{h}{2} -----> equation B

Substitute equation B in equation A

5,000=(\frac{h}{2})h

10,000=h^{2}

square root both sides

h=100\ ft

Find the value of b

b=\frac{h}{2} -----> b=\frac{100}{2}=50\ ft

step 2

Find the length of fencing

The perimeter of a rectangle is equal to

P=2(b+h)

we have

h=100\ ft

b=50\ ft

substitute

P=2(50+100)=300\ ft

QUICK HELP PLEASE!!!!
Andrew [12]

h = 2t - d

multiply both sides by 2 to eliminate the fraction

2t = d + h

subtract d from both sides

2t - d = h ⇒ h = 2t - d

Write an equation parallel to x - 3y = 9 that passes through the point ( 3, -1 )
ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the point-slope formula.

y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)   ....   x_1 = 3 and y_1 = - 1

m is the slope to  x - 3y = 9 because (lines are  parallel )

calculate : m   by equation   x - 3y = 9 :

x = 3y +9

divid by : 3      1/3 x = y + 3

y =  (1/3) x - 3      so : m = 1/3

an equation parallel to x - 3y = 9 that passes through the point ( 3, -1 ) is :

y +1 = (1/3)(x - 3)
