Answer:
A. They will pay more with the new price plan.
B. The new price plan would be cheaper.
Step-by-step explanation:
A. They will pay more with the new price plan.
For the current price plan, you would add the $3 rent to the two games (which are $4 each). This basically means:
$3 + $4 + $4 = $11
For the new price plan, you would add the $11 rent to the two games (which are $2 each). This basically means:
$11 + $2 + $2 = $15
Therefore, you pay more for the new price plan.
B. Using similar logic as part A, the current price plan 7 games would cost:
$3 + [7 x ($4)] = $31 (multiply by 7 since they play 7 games)
For the newprice plan, 7 games would cost:
$11 + [7 x ($2)] = $25 (multiply by 7 since they play 7 games)
Therefore, the new price plan would be cheaper.
Hope this helps :)
yes. The zero to the left of the decimal point does not affect the overall value of the problem when removed, since it is zero.
Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer:
The first choice (2x + 4y >=3, 2x +4y <=3)
Discussion:
Suppose a variable M met these conditions: M >=3 and M <=3. The only way this can happen is that M = 3. In our case letting M = 2x + 4y, we find the inequalities give
2x + 4y = 3
which is the equation of a line. (The other choices do NOT include the boundary line because they use strict < or > signs.)
Thank you,
MrB
