Which of the following statements could be translated to the equation n - 5 = -2?

- A number less than five equals negative two.
- The difference between a number and five is negative two.
- If five is subtracted from a number, the result is two.
- Five less a number is equal to two.

please send help :')

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer would be B

Step-by-step explanation:

First, A doesnt make sense, since it isn't a ineqality.

C doesnt make sense because if 5 is subtracted form a number n, it is -2, not 2.

D doesnt work because 5 less a number (-5) is not 2, it is -2.

So B works, because the difference between n and 5 (n-5) is -2.

What ordered pair is a solution to
{2y=4x-10}
{-y=4x-1}

Answers

Answer: (1, -3) => x = 1, y = -3

Step-by-Step Explanation:

Lets solve using Elimination Method :-

2y = 4x - 10
-4x = -10 - 2y
=> -4x + 2y = -10 (Eq. 1)

-y = 4x - 1
-4x = -1 + y
=> -4x - y = -1 (Eq. 2)

Subtracting Eq. 2 from Eq. 1 :-

=> 0 + 3y = -9
3y = -9
=> y = -9/3 = -3

Therefore, y = -3

Substitute value of ‘y’ in Eq. 2 :-

-4x - y = -1
-4x -(-3) = -1
-4x + 3 = -1
-4x = -1 - 3
-4x = -4
4x = 4
=> x = 4/4 = 1

Therefore, x = 1

Hence the ordered pair (1,-3) is the Solution to this System of Equations.

Mason has a business selling perfume at the mall. Currently his business has a
balance of -$20.
Which amounts of sales would give Mason's business a positive balance?
Choose ALL that apply.
$15 $35 $21 $29 $30 $19

Answers

Answer:

21, 29, 30, 35

Step-by-step explanation:

anything greater than 20 would break even and then give a position balance

You would choose all of the answers that are over $20 since Mason has a negative balance you would need to cancel that out. If he earned $20 he would have balance if 0, so he needs to earn more to get a positive balance.

Answer:

p(x) = 16x -3600600 units417 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem statement gives expressions and relations for revenue, cost, and profit. Substitute and simplify or solve, as appropriate.

__

(a)

Given: r(x) = 20x; c(x) = 3600+4x; p(x) = r(x) -c(x)

The formula for p(x) is ...

  p(x) = (20x) -(3600 +4x) . . . . substitute for r(x) and c(x)

  p(x) = 16x -3600 . . . . . . . . simplify

__

(b-i)

  r(x) = 2·c(x) . . . . given relation for revenue and cost

  20x = 2(3600 +4x) . . . . substitute for each

  12x = 7200 . . . . . . . simplify and subtract 8x

  x = 600 . . . . . . . divide by 12

Revenue is twice the cost when x = 600 units.

__

(b-ii)

  p(x) = 292 +1/3r(x) . . . . given relation for profit and revenue

  16x -3600 = 292 +1/3(20x) . . . . . substitute for each

  28/3x = 3892 . . . . . . . . add 3600 -20/3x

  x = 417 . . . . . . . . multiply by 3/28

Profit is $292 more than 1/3 the revenue earned for 417 units.
