Answer:

Option D - $2x+3(x+1.5)=12$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : James used substitution to solve this system of equations.

Equation 1 - $2x+3y=12$

Equation 2 - $y=x+1.5$

To find : Which could be the result of his first step ?

Solution :

In substitution method we substitute the value of one variable from a equation and put it into another equation.

We substitute the value of y from equation 2 in equation 1,

Equation 1 - $2x+3y=12$

$2x+3(x+1.5)=12$

Therefore, the result of his first step is $2x+3(x+1.5)=12$

So, Option D is correct.

Peter is the owner of a hotel. He has found that when he charges the nightly cost of $139, the average occupancy is 275. In addi

zimovet [89]

Answer:

Without price increase, Cost/night = $119

Average occupancy = 372 The revenue will be 119*372 = $44,268

For every $15 price increase, the occupancy decreases by 25. Therefore with x price increases, The revenue will be $(119 + 15x)*(372 25x)

Cost/night = $119 + 15x Occupancy = 372 - 25x

Answer:

The nightly cost with x $15 price increases is $119 + 15x.

If x-1/x = 9 find the value of x +1/x

iren [92.7K]

Answer:

$\sqrt{85}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x - $\frac{1}{x}$ = 9 ← square both sides

(x - $\frac{1}{x}$ )² = 9²

x² - 2 + $\frac{1}{x^2}$ = 81 ( add 2 to both sides )

x² + $\frac{1}{x^2}$ = 83

Now

(x + $\frac{1}{x}$ )² = x² + $\frac{1}{x^2}$ + 2, thus

x² + $\frac{1}{x^2}$ = 83 + 2 = 85

(x + $\frac{1}{x}$ )²= 85 ( take the square root of both sides)

x + $\frac{1}{x}$ = $\sqrt{85}$
