Answer:

$-7\geq x$ and $[-7,12)$ in interval notation.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given a compound inequality $-7x-50\leq -1\text{ and }-6x+70>-2$ . We are supposed to find the solution of our given inequality.

First of all, we will solve both inequalities separately, then we will combine both solution merging overlapping intervals.

$-7x-50\leq -1$

$-7x-50+50\leq -1+50$

$-7x\leq 49$

Dividing by negative number, flip the inequality sign:

$\frac{-7x}{-7}\geq \frac{49}{-7}$

$x\geq -7$

$-6x+70>-2$

$-6x+70-70>-2-70$

$-6x>-72$

Dividing by negative number, flip the inequality sign:

$\frac{-6x}{-6}$

$x$

Upon merging both intervals, we will get:

$-7\geq x$

Therefore, the solution for our given inequality would be $-7\geq x$ and $[-7,12)$ in interval notation.

MAXImum [283]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

Tran has a credit card with a spending limit of $2000 and an APR (annual percentage rate) of 12%.

During the first month, Tran charged $450 and paid $150 of that in his billing cycle.

The expression which will find the amount of interest Tran will be charged after the first month is (0.012)(300)

Here 0.01 because it is 1 month tax.

300 is remaining amount as Tran used $450 but paid $150.

1. Three friends pooled their money to purchase a new game system that costs $298. One person

iragen [17]

Answer:

First person: $107

Second person: $98

Third person: $93

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be "f" the amount of money (in dollars) that the first person contributed to the purchase, "s" the amount of money (in dollars) that the second person contributed to the purchase and "t" the amount of money (in dollars) that the third person contributed to the purchase.

With the information given in the exercise, you can set up the following equations:

Equation 1 → $f+s+t=298$

Equation 2 → $s=f-9$

Equation 3 → $t=f-14$

Substitute the Equations 2 and 3 into the Equation 1 and then solve for "f":

$f+(f-9)+(f-14)=298\\\\3f-23=298\\\\f=\frac{321}{3}\\\\f=107$

Finally, substitute the value of "f" into the Equation 2 and then into the Equation 3, in order to find the values of "s" and "t".

Therefore, you get:

$s=107-9\\\\s=98\\\\\\t=107-14\\\\t=93$

Murljashka [212]

Answer:

For this case we can make the following rule of three:

25% ----------------> 2 $

100% --------------> x

From here, we clear the value of x.

We have then:

Therefore, the value of the Taco that Andrea bought, before the tip, is $ 8.

the price of Andrea's tacos, before tip is $ 8.

Blizzard [7]

Answer:

$2(\frac{3}{5}) ^{3}=2(\frac{3^3}{5^3})$ and not $2(\frac{3}{5}) ^{3}=2(\frac{3^3}{5})$

Step-by-step explanation:

Jim's work evaluating $2(\frac{3}{5}) ^{3}$ is shown:

$2(\frac{3}{5}) ^{3}=2(\frac{3^3}{5})=2(\frac{3X3X3}{5})=2(\frac{27}{5})=\frac{54}{5}$

If you look at the Second step, the exponent is taken over only the numerator. It should have been taken over both the numerator and denominator as shown below.

$2(\frac{3}{5}) ^{3}=2(\frac{3^3}{5^3})$

The correct workings therefore is:

$2(\frac{3}{5}) ^{3}=2(\frac{3^3}{5^3})=2(\frac{3X3X3}{5X5X5})=2(\frac{27}{125})=\frac{54}{125}$
