Consider an absolute value inequality.
For example, 3≤|x-7|
this means that x-7 can be
i) 3, 3.4, 5, 7.5 etc
or ii) -3, -3.2, -4.7 etc since these values in abs value all are ≥3
thus the set of all values in i) is represented by x-7≥3, which means x≥10
and the set of all values in ii) is x-7≤-3, which means x≤4.
Thus, the compound inequality is : x≥10 OR x≤4
an absolute inequality corresponding to this compound inequality is 3≤|x-7|
<h2>Answer:</h2>
a) 20 will represent the set price of admission
b) 3 is the price of each ticket
c) x will be the total number of ticket bought
d) y will be the total amount of money spent.
<h2>Explanations:</h2>
The equation given is written in slope-intercept form of a line. The slope-intercept form is in the form y = mx +b
where
• m is the ,rate of change ,or slope
,
• b is the ,intercept, (constant)
Given the equation that represents the total amount of mney the hunter will spend expressed as y = 20 + 3x
a) Since 20 is a constant value, it is more like the initial price. Based on the question, 20 will represent the set price of admission.
b) 3 is the price of each ticket needed to go on the ride
c) x will be the total number of ticket bought for the rides
d) As mentioned earlier, y will be the total amount of money the hunter will spend for the ride including the admission price.
Answer:
x = 8, -4
Step-by-step explanation:
2x-4-6=6; therefore, x = 8
2x-4=-12; therefore, x = -4
A percentage is a number out of 100. So, 17.5% is really 17.5/100, or 0.175.
To find 17.5% of 1500, you multiply 1500 by 0.175
1500 x 0.175 = 262.5.
The commission is $262.50.
