Let'sSo, we gave 2 parallel lines and 2 transversals, we have to match the angles.
Let's start with angle b,
Let's move on to angle e,
Let's move on to angle d,
Moving to angle c, we have;
And, angle a;
Try breaking these into sections.
Twice: 2 times
The sum of: add
A number: choose a variable, like x
---Thus "the sum of a number and 4" becomes "add x and 4" which, mathematically, is "x+4"
-----Continuing to put it all together, "Twice the sum of a number and four" becomes "2 times (x+4)" which, mathematically, is "2(x+4)"
Is: equals
-------"Twice the sum of a number and four is" becomes "2(x+4)="
23 less than: subtract 23. This one tends to trick people; "23 less than" will become "__ - 23", NOT "23 - __"
three times the number: 3 times x
---"23 less than three times the number" becomes "subtract 23 from 3 times x" which, mathematically, is "3x-23"
-------So the final phrase: 2(x+4)=3x-23"
Answer:
No. See explanation below.
Step-by-step explanation:
No.
Since 60 × $300 = $18,000, he would be exactly at budget if he needed 60 uniforms and if each uniform cost $300, but he needs more than 60 uniforms, and each uniform costs more than $315, so the total cost is definitely more than $18,000.
