Answer:

The net change would be -2.

Step-by-step explanation:

The upward change of elevator is represented by positive sign while the downward change represented by negative sign.

Given,

First the elevator goes up 15 floors,

change = + 15,

Then it goes 9 floors down,

change = -9,

Then it goes 11 floors up,

Change = + 11,

Finally, it goes 19 floor down,

Change = - 19

So, the net change = sum of total changes = 15 - 9 + 11 - 19 = -2

15u + 11u - 9d - 19d = -2d
It went up 26, down 28, a net change of down 2.

Paige works at a department store and has a commission rate of 3 percent. Her sales for the quarter were $4,596. If she earns $5
ANTONII [103]
How you would set this up would be as follows:

(50*30)+4,596*.03

The 50*30 is her earning $50 a day for 30 days. Then to find her commission earnings you multiply her sales of 4,596 times the commission rate of 3%(when you move the decimal place you get .03)

Add them together and you get her total amount earned of $1,637.88

Hope this helped!

Daniel is printing out copies of a presentation. It takes 3 minutes to print a color copy and 1 minute to print a black-and-whit
Effectus [21]
Work the information to set inequalities that represent each condition or restriction.

2) Name the variables. 

c: number of color copies
b: number of black-and-white copies

3) Model each restriction:

i) <span>It takes 3 minutes to print a color copy and 1 minute to print a black-and-white copy.
</span><span>
</span><span>3c + b
</span><span>
</span><span>
</span><span>ii) He needs to print at least 6 copies ⇒ c + b ≥ 6
</span><span>
</span><span>
</span><span>iv) And must have the copies completed in no more than 12 minutes ⇒</span>

3c + b ≤ 12
<span />

4) Additional restrictions are c ≥ 0, and b ≥ 0 (i.e. only positive values for the number of each kind of copies are acceptable)

5) This is how you graph that:

i) 3c + b ≤ 12: draw the line 3c + b = 12 and shade the region up and to the right of the line.

ii) c + b ≥ 6: draw the line c + b = 6 and shade the region down and to the left of the line.

iii) since c ≥ 0 and b ≥ 0, the region is in the first quadrant.

iv) The final region is the intersection of the above mentioned shaded regions.

v) You can see such graph in the attached figure.

Kiran has 27 nickels and quarters in his pocket, worth a total of $2.75.
Montano1993 [528]

The system of equations is

n + d = 27

n + 5d = 55

Step-by-step explanation:

The given is:

  • Kiran has 27 nickels and quarters in his pocket
  • They worth a total of $2.75
  • We need to write a system of equations to represent the relationships between the number  of nickels n, the number of quarters d, and the dollar amount in this situation

∵ The number of nickles is n

∵ The number of quarters is d

∵ There are 27 nickles and quarters

∴ n + d = 27 ⇒ (1)

∵ 1 nickel = 5 cents

∵ 1 quarter = 25 cents

- Multiply n by 5 and d by 25 to find their value

∴ They worth = 5n + 25d

∵ They worth a total of $2.75

- Chang the dollar to cent

∵ 1 dollar = 100 cents

∴ $2.75 = 2.75 × 100 = 275 cents

- Equate their value by 275

∴ 5n + 25d = 275

- Simplify it by divide each term by 5

∴ n + 5d = 55 ⇒ (2)

The system of equations is

n + d = 27

n + 5d = 55
