Answer:
9.286
Step-by-step explanation:
I'm not guaranteeing this answer. If this is correctly written without any indication of how to deal with x, then here is as much as you can do.
850-53x m= 720-39x m Subtract 720 from both sides.
850 - 720 - 53x = 720 - 720 - 39xm Combine
- 53xm + 130 = - 39xm Add 53x
-53x+53xm + 130 = -39x + 53xm Combine
130 = 14xm Divide by 14
xm = 130/14
xm = 9.28
===============================
You can use the same steps above. I'm abbreviating the steps because they are the same.
I'm sure there is more to the problem, but I can't imagine what it is. If you have additional directions, put it under this answer. I will get it as a comment.
850-53m= 720-39m
850 - 720 - 53m = - 39m
130 - 53m = - 39m
130 = -39m + 53m
130 = 14m
130/14 = m
m =9.286
1: Solve for either x or y in one of the equations. So x + y = -1 is y = -x -1
2: substitute the new equation in the opposite equation. So x - (-x - 1) = 7
3: distribute the negative. X + x + 1 = 7
4: combine like terms. 2x + 1 = 7
5: solve for x. Subtract 1 on both sides. 2x = 6
6: divide by 2 to get x by itself. X = 3
7: plug the new value of x into one of the ORIGINAL equations. 3 + y = -1
8: solve for y. Subtract 3 on both sides.
Y = -4
9: the solution is written as (x,y) so the solution would be (3, -4)
The answer should be either b or d but i’m not too sure
The given polyn. is not in std. form. To answer this question, we need to perform the indicated operations (mult., addn., subtrn.) first and then arrange the terms of this poly in descending order by powers of x:
P(x) = x(160 - x) - (100x + 500)
When this work has been done, we get P(x) = 160x - x^2 - 100x - 500, or
P(x) = -x^2 + 60x - 500
So, you see, the last term is -500. This means that if x = 0, not only is there no profit, but the company is "in the hole" for $500.
