75.25x + 3604 = 300.50x
300.50x - 75.25x = 3604
225.25x = 3604
x = 16
Both companies charged the same at 16 tons
first answer 16 tons
--------------------
300.50x = 300.50(16) = $4,808
both companies charged the same are $4,808
second answer is $4,808
Write in slope-intercept form,
y=-1/2x+4
The answer is 7 and 4/ 7+4+11 and 7-4=3!
4500 - 2300 = 2200
They wish to get rid of 2200 employees
250(x) = 2200
Divide 2200 by 250
x = 8.8
It will take 8.8 years.
Using the Pythagorean Theorem, you should get 45 [9 + 36]. Then, take the square root of 45 and simplify it to 3√5.
