2x + 7 = 5x - 8 (x - 4)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x=5

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 7 = 5x - 8 (x - 4)

Distribute

2x+7 = 5x - 8x +32

Combine like terms

2x+7 = -3x+32

Add 3x to each side

2x+7+3x = -3x+32+3x

5x+7 = 32

Subtract 7 from each side

5x+7-7 = 32-7

5x = 25

Divide by 5

5x/5 = 25/5

x=5

In a certain city, three newspapers A, B, and C are published. Suppose that 60% of the families in the city subscribe to newspaper A, 40% of the families subscribe to newspaper B, and 30% subscribe to newspaper C. Suppose also that 20% of the families subscribe to both A and B, 10% subscribe to both A and C, 20% subscribe to both B and C, and 5% subscribe to all three newspapers. (i) What percentage of the families in the city subscribe to at least one of the three newspapers? (ii)What percentage of the families in the city subscribe to exactly one newspaper?

Answers

Answer:

(i) = 85‬%

(ii) = 30%

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is a probability question.

We will need the following values:

P(A) = 60%

P(B) = 40%

P(C) = 30%

P(AnB) = 20%

p(AnC) = 10%

P(BnC) = 20%

P(AnBnC) = 5%

(i) To determine the percentage of the families in the city that subscribe to at least one of the three newspapers:

P(A) + P(B) + P(C) + P(AnBnC) - P(AnB) - p(AnC) - P(BnC)

= 60% + 40% + 30% + 5% - 20% - 10% - 20%

= 85‬%

(ii) To determine the percentage of the families in the city that subscribe to exactly one newspaper:

P(at least one paper) - p(AnB) - p(AnC) - P(BnC) -  P(AnBnC)

= 85‬% - 20% - 10% - 20% - 5%

= 30%

Your class is selling boxes of flower seeds as a fundraiser. The total profit p depends on the amount x that your class charges for each box of seeds. The equation
p= -0.53 +25x - 120
models the profit of the fundraiser. What's the
smallest amount, in dollars, that you can charge and make a profit of at least $105?

Answers

Answer:

$9.03

If you want smallest amount it dollars, you have to go with $9. However, this will only give you a profit of $104.47

Step-by-step explanation:

p = -0.53 +25x - 120

105 = -0.53 +25x - 120

225.53 = 25x

         x = 9.0212

Check work:

105 = -0.53 +25(9.02) - 120

105 ≠ 104.97

Since $9.02 doesn't equal $105 profit, let's add a penny to make it $9.03.

105 = -0.53 +25(9.03) - 120

105 ≠ 105.22      

If you charge $9.03 for each box you will make a profit of at least $105.

Round to smallest amount in dollars:

105 = -0.53 +25(9) - 120

105 ≠ 104.47

Answers

Answer:

The correct alternatives

This is a subtraction expression

The correct expression is n minus 31

To evaluate the expression, subtract 31 from 29.

Step-by-step explanation:

Rafael writes an expression to represent “a number, n, decreased by thirty-one.”

First you gotta know what means "decreased by thirty-one". It means that

there exist two numbers where the difference between them is 31.

The number [tex]n[/tex] decreased by 31 can be writen as

[tex]n-31[/tex]

The expression is therefore

[tex]n-x=31 \implies \boxed{x=n-31}, n, m \in \mathbb{R}[/tex]

Rafael evaluates the expression [tex](n-31)[/tex] for [tex]n=29[/tex]

[tex]n-31 = 29-31 = -2[/tex]

PLEASE HELP!!!

Answers

Answer:

Ok:

Step-by-step explanation:

So f°g . means f(g(x)). (The ° should be more center and bigger but I don't know to do that on a keyboard). f(g(x)) means that you replace the x in f(x) with the g(x) function. i.e:

if f(x) = 2x+2

and g(x) = [tex]x^2[/tex]

f(g(x)) = [tex]2x^2+2[/tex].

Similarly, in this case, we get f(x) = 2x-3 and g(x) = 3x-2.

Then, f(g(x)) or f°g(x) is 2(3x-2) - 3.

And we plug in -2 to solve:

2(3(-2)-2)-3.

and get -19.

Check if I am wrong because everyone makes mistakes but that is the way to solve this.
