Answer:
He should spend 3 minutes or less on each scale
Sven made a mistake in the symbol of inequality, placing lesser or equal instead of greater or equal
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
t ------> is the number of minutes he spends on each scale
Remember that the phrase "at least" is equal to "greater than or equal"
so
The inequality that represent this scenario is

solve for t


Multiply by -1 both sides

Divide by 5 both sides

Sven is incorrect
He should spend 3 minutes or less on each scale
Sven made a mistake in the symbol of inequality, placing lesser or equal instead of greater or equal
Answer:
29119.66666...+14561.3333...=43681, 209ft^2, not square feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>"One side of a rectangle is 3 feet shorter than twice the other side find the sides if the area is 209 feet squared"</em>
Ok, so this is a tricky one- <em> 209 feet squared, </em>not 209 square feet, therefore the area is 209^2, or 43,681.
Next, let's define our variables-
<em>x= the "other side"</em>
<em>z= 3 feet shorter than twice side</em>
We can now make these (useful) equations
z=2x-3
43681= (2x-3)+x
We will focus on the latter for now-
Simplify
43681= (2x-3)+x
43681= 2x-3+x
43681= 3x-3
+3
43684=3x
/3
14561.3333...=x
z=2x-3
z=2*(14561.3333)-3
z=29119.66666....
29119.66666...+14561.3333...=43681
Answer: 46656
Step-by-step explanation: there are 7 x’s on the left side of the equation, and one on the right. The one on the right side is multiplied to a variable, x. Divide both sides by 6, you get 6 6 times on the left side. Multiply and you get 46656

Step-by-step explanation:
Ana started the work nicely by multiplying out factors to get:\

She multiplied
correctly using difference of two squares to get: 
Unfortunately: She made a mistake in multiplying
she mistakenly got
instead of
. <em>She left out the coefficient of 2.</em>
Therefore the second step should have been:

The next step will now be:

This simplifies to

Given that Craig bought a treadmill for 400 dollars.
Useful life of the macine = x
Hence annual purchase cost spread over x years will be 400/x per year.
In addition, there is an annual maintenance cost of 36 dollars.
Hence Average annual cost in dollars = purchase cost per year+maintenance cost per year
= 
Hence answer for rational function is
either ![\frac{400}{x} +36[tex]Or [tex]\frac{400+36x}{x}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B400%7D%7Bx%7D%20%2B36%5Btex%5D%3C%2Fp%3E%3Cp%3EOr%20%5Btex%5D%5Cfrac%7B400%2B36x%7D%7Bx%7D)
