The cost to mail a letter is a base charge of $0.42 plus $0.17 for each ounce. Write an expression to represent the cost for mailing a letter that is w ounces. Then find the cost for mailing a letter that is four ounces.

0.17 + 0.42w; $1.85
0.42 + 0.17w; $1.10
0.17 + 0.42w; $2.36
0.42 + 0.17w; $2.36

Answers

Answer 1
the total cost of mailing a letter is expressed by : 0.42 + (0.17w)
the cost of mailing a four ounces letter is $1.10
step by step explanation:
first, you have a fixed cost, independent of any other variable, which is: 0.42.
then you have a cost that is independent on the weight. expressed the ounces, which is: 0.17 per ounce. that means if you have 2 ounces then your cost would be duplicated, becoming 0.34 and so on forth, let’s define the weight as w.
the total cost of mailing a letter equals the base charge or the fixed cost. plus the cost of the number of ounces that our letter weighs.
we can express this statement in a mathematics terms:
0.42 + ( 0.17 * w) = COST

now, we want to know how much it would cost us to mail a letter that weighs 4 ounces. that means we know the value of the “w” in our expression, so we can substitute it and solve the expression:
0.42 + (0.17 * 4 ) = COST
0.42 + 0.68 = COST
1.1 = COST

it would cost us $1.10 to send a 4 ounces letter :)

Consider and define which type of slope the line has.

Answers

Answer:

think of the numbers as the grid. zero being the middle and each square being 1 2 3 4 5 6 etc to the right of 0 are your positive, -1 -2 -3 etc move to the left of that line, your other access from zero goes up to positive one positive 2 positive 3 etc, from zero down you would be negative one negative 2 negative 3 etc

Answer:

1) (-7, 8) and (-7, 0) - Undefined Slope.

2) (3, 5) and (-1, 2) - Positive Slope.

3) (2, 4) and (5, 1) - Negative Slope.

4) (6, -3) and (4, -3) - Zero Slope.

1) In the coordinates (-7, 8) and (-7, 0), we can see that the first number in both coordinates (the x point) is -7. If the x values are the same, that means that the line does not change at all horizontally/on the x-axis. The only solution to a line that passes through these points would be a vertical line. Vertical lines always have an undefined slope. To test, use the slope formula with the coordinates. y2 is the y in the second coordinate, y1 is the y from the first coordinate, x1 is the x from the first coordinate, and x2 is the x from the second coordinate.

[tex]\frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1} = slope[/tex]        

[tex]\frac{0 - 8}{-7 - (-7)} = slope[/tex]   0 - 8 = -8 and -7 - (-7) = -7 + 7 or 0. Any number divided by 0 is undefined.

2) In the coordinates (3, 5) and (-1, 2) there isn't any obvious abnormality in the coordinates that may cause undefined or 0. We can use the slope formula to find if it has a positive or negative slope.

[tex]\frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1} = slope[/tex]        

[tex]\frac{2 - 5}{-1 - 3} = slope[/tex]   2 - 5 = -3 and -1 - 3 = -4.  [tex]\frac{-3}{-4}[/tex]  simplifies to 3/4, so the slope is positive.

3) (2, 4) and (5, 1) also don't have any repeating numbers in the coordinates so we can find the slope using the formula.

[tex]\frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1} = slope[/tex]        

[tex]\frac{1 - 4 }{5-2} = slope[/tex]   1 - 4 = -3 and 5 - 2 = 3   [tex]\frac{-3}{3}[/tex] = -1, so the slope is negative.

4) (6, -3) and (4, -3) have the same y values in them, -3. If the y value stays constant then that means the line does not move along the y-axis. This means that it must be a straight line through 1 point on the y-axis. It is a horizontal line. The slope of a horizontal line is always 0 because is straight. You can check using the slope formula.

[tex]\frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1} = slope[/tex]        

[tex]\frac{-3 - (-3) }{4 - 6} = slope[/tex]   -3 - (-3) = -3 + 3 = 0 and 4 - 6 = -2. [tex]\frac{0}{2}[/tex] = 0. The slope is 0.

Please help i will give 100 points

Answers

First:

X = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

So the two angles are congruent, or they are the same angle. So you write the equation as 5x + 9 = 84.

5x + 9 = 84

      -9     -9

5x = 75

(divide) 5 from both sides

x = 15

Second:

X = 27

Step-by-step explanation:

For this one I believe the answer is X = 27 because both equations should equal 180 degrees.

So you write the final equation:

(x + 72) + (3x) = 180

     -72                -72

(combine X's):

4x = 108

Divide both sides by 4

X = 27

Third:

X = 40

Step-by-step explanation:

For this one, the angles match again, so you write it s:

4x - 50 = 2x + 30

    +50           +50

4x = 2x +80

-2x  -2x

2x = 80

Divide both sides by 2

X = 40

End

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

For A, 7x=21, it is asking, 7 multiplied by what number is 21? We can try to figure it out. Let's start with 0.

7(0)≠21

Then 1.

7(1)≠21

7(2)≠21

7(3)=21

Therefore, for question a, the answer is 3.

For question b, it's asking 6 minus what is 2.

With this one, we can say it is 4, since 6-4=2.

Now moving on to B.

a) 2x+4=16

We need to isolate x in order to find it's value.

So we can begin with subtracting 4 from both sides, getting us:

2x=12

Then, if we divide both terms by 2, we get x.

x=12/2

x=6.

b)

3 x (z/4)=9

Again, we need to isolate z.

So, we multiply both sides by 4, getting us

3z=36

then we divide by 3

z=36/3

z=12

c) 16-x=2

Here we simply subtract 16 from each side, then flip the signs to get positive x.

So, 16-x=2

-x=-14

x=14

d) 4k=20

This is essentially asking, 4 times what number is 20?

So we can divide both sides by 4 and get

k=20/4

k=5

Write the equation of the line, given the y and x-intercepts. a x-intercept = –68, y-intercept = –34

Answers

Answer:

In slope-intercept form, y = -17/34 - 34

Step-by-step explanation:

For the two points, you have (-68, 0) and (0, -34). To get the slope, you take (y-y) / (x-x). Stay consistent on the order you do those. After I did (-34 - 0) / (0 - 68), simplified it, and got a slope of -17 / 34. You are already given the y-intercept, so you just write the equation from there (y = -17/34 - 34)

solve the following inequality for n -5n+6≥-7(5n-6)-6n

Answers

Answer: The inequality is: n ≥ 36/37

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your inequality step-by-step.

n − 5n + 6 ≥ −7(5n−6)−6

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

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the inequality.

−4n + 6 ≥ −41n + 42

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

Step 2: Add 41n to both sides.

−4n + 6 + 41n ≥ − 41n+ 42 + 41n

37n + 6 ≥ 42

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

Step 3: Subtract 6 from both sides.

37n + 6 − 6 ≥ 42 − 6

37n ≥ 36

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

Step 4: Divide both sides by 37.

37n/37 ≥ 36/37

n ≥ 36/37

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

Answer:

n ≥ 36/37
