b. What will the value of each card be when they have equal​ value?

Tavon Has A Gift Card For $110 That Loses $2.50 For Each 30-day Period It Is Not Used. He Has Another

Answers

Answer 1

30 day period

The first equation is 50 - 2x (because you start with $50 and subtract 2 for each 30 day period)

The second equation is 40-1.5x

Set them equal to each other:  50 - 2x = 40 - 1.5x

Solve for x:

50 - 2x = 40 - 1.5

  +2x   +2x

50 = 40 + 0.5 x

-40   -40

-------------------

10 = 0.5 x

20 = x

So there will be 20 30-day periods until the cards will be equal in value.

Check:  After 20 periods, 50 - 2(20) = $10 left

40 - 1.5(20) = also $10 left

Answer 2

The equations are y = 110 - 2.5x and y = 90 - 2x. Then the value of each card, when they have equal​ value, will be $10.

What is a linear equation?

A relationship between two or more parameters that, when shown on a graph, produces a linear model. The degree of the variable will be one.

The linear equation is given as,

y = mx + c

Where m is the slope of the line and c is the y-intercept of the line.

Let x be the number of days and y be the value of the card.

Tavon has a gift card for $110 that loses $2.50 for each​ 30-day period it is not used. He has another gift card for $90 that loses $2 for each​ 30-day period it is not used. Then the equations will be

y = 110 - 2.5x    ...1

y = 90 - 2x       ...2

From equations 1 and 2, we have

110 - 2.5x = 90 - 2x

20 = 0.5x

x = 40

And the value of y will be

y = 110 - 2.5(40)

y = 110 - 100

y = $10

The equations are y = 110 - 2.5x and y = 90 - 2x. Then the value of each card, when they have equal​ value, will be $10.

equation which can be used to determine x, how much each bottle of juice costs?

Answers

Call a bottle of juice costs is x

$2.49 + 12x = $27.57

             12x = $27.57 - $2.49

             12x = $25.08

                 x = $25.08 / 12

                 x = $2.09

SO each bottle of juice costs $2.09.

Answers

Answer:

  √35 +3√7 -6 . . . square units

Step-by-step explanation:

The area can be figured a number of ways. The figure can be divided into parts, and the areas of those parts added.

Or, the area of the enclosing rectangle can be found, and the rectangle at upper right that is not shaded can be subtracted from that. We choose the latter.

The overall width is the sum of the given partial widths:

  width = (√7 -2) + (2) = √7

Then the area of the bounding rectangle is ...

  A = LW = (√5 +3)(√7) = √35 +3√7

The area of the upper right empty-space is ...

  A = LW = (3)(2) = 6

Then The area of the shaded figure is ...

  √35 +3√7 -6

Concept:

Here, we need to understand the idea of evaluation.  

When encountering questions that gave you an expression with variables, then stated: "If x = a, y = b, z = c" (a, b, c are all constants), this means you should substitute the value given for each variable back to the expression.

Solve:

Given function

f(x) = 4x + 2
