Answer:
The exact number would be 26.66666667 but it would be 26.
Step-by-step explanation:
Usually when dealing with decimals anything 5 and up would be rounded up but since we are dealing with money we don't round up. Since his friends lunch cost $3 every lunch the most he will be able to buy is 26. He will have about $2.5 left over which he cannot buy a lunch with so thats why you dont round up.
Payment on Plan A = $300
x is the number of hours Jake works.
Payment on Plan B = Fixed charges + (charge per hour) × (number of hours worked)
= $150 + $6.25(x)
= 150 + 6.25x
Since, the payment on Plan B should be more than Plan A,
150 + 6.25x > 300
6.25x > 300 - 150
6.25x > 150
x > 24
The minimum vale for x which satisfies this inequality is 25.
Hence, x = 25.
So..... 14 + 3= 17. I think. I mean, this is what I got from what I understand.
Answer:
The order of operations
Step-by-step explanation:
you should do what is possible within parentheses first, then exponents, then multiplication and division (from left to right), and then addition and subtraction (from left to right). (Assuming your talking about algebra)
3x−2y=12;−3x+8y=−6
Step: Solve3x−2y=12for x:
3x−2y=12
3x−2y+2y=12+2y(Add 2y to both sides)
3x=2y+12
3x
