The way to determine the number of solutions is to complete the problem in multiple different ways.
Lets be a price of the calculator - $ a
then , after using the coupon, you need to pay $(a-18)
and after using 15% discount , you need to pay (1-0.15)a=0.85a
then, if
(a-18) will be more than 0.85a, you should prefer 0.15 % discount, because it will be cheaper,
a-18> 0.85a
a-0.85a>18
0.15a > 18
a>120, that means that if the price of the calculator more than $120, 15% discount is better,
but if the price of the calculator is less than $120, you should choose $ 18 coupon.
for example, we have the price of the calculator $100
100-18=82,
100*0.85 =85, coupon is better.
If the price of the calculator $200
200-18=182,
200*0.85=170, so 15% discount is better
if price of the calculator is $120,
120-18=102
120*0.85=102,
it will not matter, what you are going to use, because you are going to pay the same amount of money
Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Given
- 4x + 3y = 12 ( add 4x to both sides )
3y = 4x + 12 ( divide the terms by 3 )
y =
x + 4 ← in slope- intercept form
with slope m =
and y- intercept c = 4
---------------------------------------------------
Given
- 5x + 3y = - 9 ( add 5x to both sides )
3y = 5x - 9 ( divide the terms by 3 )
y =
x - 3 ← in slope- intercept form
with slope m =
and y- intercept c = - 3
0.30 as a fraction is 30/100 = 3/10
0.30 as a percent = 0.30 * 100 = 30%
answer is D. 3/10 and 30%
Answer:
8
Step-by-step explanation:
4.5x+10<=50
4.5x<=50-10
4.5x<=40
x<=8.9
round down because can't go beyond 50
x=8 max
