Answer:
(s-t)(-1) = -1
(s+t)(-1) = -7
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following set of functions
s(x)=2x-2
t(x)=3x
(s-t)(x) = s(t) - t(x)
(s-t)(x) = 2x - 2 - 3x
(s-t)(x) = -x -2
(s-t)(-1) = -(-1) - 2
(s-t)(-1) = 1-2
(s-t)(-1) = -1
(s+t)(x) = s(t) + t(x)
(s+t)(x) = 2x - 2 + 3x
(s+t)(x) = 5x -2
(s+t)(-1) = 5(-1) - 2
(s+t)(-1) = -5-2
(s+t)(-1) = -7
Answer:
50 nickels, 20 quarters.
Step-by-step explanation:
System of equations (q = # of quarters, n = # of nickels):
<em>q + n = 70, 0.25q + 0.05n = 7.50</em>
the first equation can be changed to q = 70 - n, so we are able to <em>substitute q with 70 - n</em>.
So, it will look like <em>0.25*70 - 0.25n + 0.05n = 7.50</em>. This can be simplified to <em>0.2n = 10</em>, which means that n = 50.
Knowing that we can solve <em>q + 50 = 70</em>, which means that q = 20.
Dividing 1 1/4 hrs by 5 days results in the unit rate:
1 1/4 hrs 5/4 hrs
----------- = ---------------- = 1/4 hr per day
5 days 5 days
