Answer 1

Answer:

x <24

Step-by-step explanation:

first cancel negative signs

then transfer 2 to right side

Answer 2

Greetings.

The answer is x > 24.

Explanation:

Solving Inequality is almost the same as equation. However, you have to know one thing about solving an Inequality.

That is whenever you move the negative coefficient of the variable, you have to swap the sign of Inequality.

[tex]-\frac{1}{2}x<-12[/tex]

Reminder that

[tex]-\frac{1}{2}x=-\frac{x}{2}[/tex]

We use negative x above 2 instead (Easier in solving)

[tex]-\frac{x}{2}<-12[/tex]

Then we move 2 to divide -12.

[tex]-x<-12(2)\\-x<-24[/tex]

Because the coefficient for x is in negative. We move -1 to divide -24 as we get 24 (Because negative divide negative = positive)

But remember that "whenever you move the negative coefficient of the variable, you have to swap the sign of Inequality."

So we change from < to > instead.

[tex]x>24[/tex]

Answer:

The answer to #6 is 255

The answer to #7 is the mint milkshake is thicker

The answer to #8 is A is 12 and B is 18

The answer to #9 is A is 33 and B is 15

Missing values:

1. 1:7 , 3:21, 18:126

2. 20:12 , 10/3:2 , 8 1/3:5

3. 42:21 , 6:3 , 48:24

4. 4:10 , 8:20 , 16:40

5. 36:32  18:16

Step-by-step explanation:

#2: The first ratio is shown, which is 5:3.  Meaning, that the bottom number (cakes) is multiplied by 5/3 in order to get the top number (pies).   We can apply that to the ratio with 12 cakes, 12 multiplied by 5/3 is 20.  The next ratio involved 10/3 pies.  Since that is the "top" number (see chart), 10/3 need to be multiplied by 3/5 instead of 5/3.  By doing that, the number of cakes is 2.  

#7: The ratio of milk to ice cream in the mint milkshake is 1.25:4

The ratio of milk to ice cream in the strawberry milkshake is 1.75:5

When the ratios are divided, the quotient for the mint milkshake (0.3125) is LESS than the quotient for the strawberry milkshake (0.35).  This means that there is less milk and more ice cream (ratio-wise) in the mint one.

A store is instructed by corporate headquarters to put a markup of ​25% on all items. An item costing 8​$ is displayed by the store manager at a selling price of ​2$. As an​ employee, you notice that this selling price is incorrect. Find the correct selling price. What was the​ manager's likely​ error?

Answers

Answer:

the correct selling price is $10

And, the error is that the manager put the markup percentage as a selling price instead of adding up the markup to the cost price

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation is shown below:

Given that

Markup = 25%

Cost of an item = $8

Selling price of an item = $2

Based on the above information

The amount of markup would be

= 25% × 8%

= $2

Now amount after markup is

= $2 + $8

= $10

Hence, the correct selling price is $10

And, the error is that the manager put the markup percentage as a selling price instead of adding up the markup to the cost price

Answer:

part A:The correct selling price is $10

Part B:And, the error is that the manager put the markup percentage as a selling price instead of adding up the markup to the cost price

Shawn is a member of a book club. He pays a $50 yearly membership fee and can purchase books through the club for $5 each. His total annual cost is a function of the number of books, b, that he purchases in a year:

C(b) = 5b + 50

What is the total cost if he purchase 17 books in a year?​

Answers

Answer:

The annual total cost is $135 when he purchases 17 books

Step-by-step explanation:

Given function is:

C(b) = 5b + 50

Here c is the output which is cost and b is the input which is number of books purchased in an year.

In order to find the total cost when he purchases 17 books, we have to put 17 in place of b and find the cost.

So,

Putting b = 17

[tex]C(17) = 5(17) + 50\\= 85+50 = 135[/tex]

Hence,

The annual total cost is $135 when he purchases 17 books

The sum of two numbers is 2490 and if 6.5 percent of one no. is equal to 8.5 percent of the other, then numbers are ?? Make sure it’s correct answer pls! 20 points for brainliest (also can u tell me how to mark someone brainliest?)

Answers

Answer:

The two number are :

x = 1411

y = 1079

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the two numbers = x and y

The sum of two numbers is 2490

x + y = 2490..... Equation 1

If 6.5 percent of one no. is equal to 8.5 percent of the other,

Hence:

6.5% of x = 8.5% of y

0.065x = 0.085y

Make x the subject of the Formula

x = 0.085y/0.065

x = 1.308y

We substitute 1.308y for x Equation 1

x + y = 2490..... Equation 1

1.308y + y = 2490

2.308y = 2490

y = 2490/2.308

y = 1078.8561525

y = 1079

x + y = 2490..... Equation 1

x = 2490 - y

x = 2490 - 1079

x = 1411

2x -14 = -9 answer for this equation

Answers

Answer:the exact form is x=5/2 if its wrong then its probably wrote in a different way

Step-by-step explanation: Move all terms that don't contain  

x

to the right side and solve.

Answer:

x= 2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

2x + -14 = -9

Reorder the terms:

-14 + 2x = -9

Solving

-14 + 2x = -9

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '14' to each side of the equation.

-14 + 14 + 2x = -9 + 14

Combine like terms: -14 + 14 = 0

0 + 2x = -9 + 14

2x = -9 + 14

Combine like terms: -9 + 14 = 5

2x = 5

Divide each side by '2'.

x = 2.5

Simplifying

x = 2.5
