Trash Management charges its customers a fee of $25 plus $8 for each trash can they need emptied. Waste Away charges its customers $12 per trash can with no fee. Write an inequality that can be used to determine the number of trash cans for which it is less expensive for a customer to use Waste Away as their trash service.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

after 5 trash cans the waste away would be cheaper

Step-by-step explanation:

28+8x

12x

you would plug in numbers for x until one of them is cheaper in this case waste away is cheaper by $8 after 5 trash cans

Answer 2

There are fewer than six trash cans, so it is less expensive for a customer to choose Waste Away as their trash service.

What is inequality?

Inequality is defined as mathematical statements that have a minimum of two terms containing variables or numbers that are not equal.

Let x be the number of trash cans.

The cost for Trash Management is 25 + 8x, and the cost for Waste Away is 12x.

To determine the number of trash cans for which Waste Away is less expensive, we need to find the number of trash cans such that the cost for Waste Away is less than the cost for Trash Management, which can be expressed as 12x < 25 + 8x.

Solving for x, we get 12x - 8x < 25, which simplifies to 4x < 25.

Dividing both sides by 4, we get x < 25/4.

Therefore, it is less expensive for a customer to use Waste Away as their trash service if they have fewer than 25/4 = 6.25 trash cans.

Since the number of trash cans must be an integer, the inequality can be rewritten as x < 6.

Answers

Answer:

1. m = 3x

2. Possibly doesn't have a constant rate of change, because if you were to multiply 4.9 to the other coordinates/points/x values provided, you would not get the correct value for y, this means that the rate of change is not constant. Not only that but if you are to find a value that can multiply and add up to each, it would not go with the first coordinate.

3. The constant rate of change is found to be: m = 0.375

Step-by-step explanation:

In the question, it is asking for the constant rate of change.

This can be found determined by the graphs:

x  |  y

5  | 15

8  | 24

12 | 36

24 | 72

From what is shown, on x's side, we can see that:

5 · 3 = 15

8 · 3 = 24

12 · 3 = 36

24 · 3 = 72

This means that the constant for the first graph is m = 3x.

x  |  y

2  |  [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex]

4  |  [tex]1\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

6  |  [tex]2\frac{1}{4}[/tex]

8  |  3

If you change the fractions into decimals:

[tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] = 0.75

[tex]1\frac{1}{2}[/tex] = 1.5

[tex]2\frac{1}{4}[/tex] = 2.25

   = 3.00

(The change is + 0.75)

0.75 + 0.75 = 1.5

1.5 + 0.75 = 2.25

2.25 + 0.75 = 3.00

(But what about multiplying it?)

It is found that 0.75 DOES NOT work with muliplying, BUT we can find the rate of change if we divide 0.75 by 2

[tex]\frac{0.75}{2}[/tex] = 0.375

This would be your rate of change!

Which expression is equivalent to negative one half open parentheses three minus two fifths close parentheses?

negative three halves minus one fifth

negative three halves plus one fifth

negative three and one half minus one fifth

negative three and one half plus one fifth

Answers

Negative three halves plus one fifth

The correct option will be B that is "Negative three halves plus one fifth" as the expression is -1/2(3-2/5) as defined "negative one half open parentheses three minus two fifths close parentheses".

What is expression?

A finite combination of symbols that are well-formed in accordance with context-dependent rules is referred to as an expression or mathematical expression. No, a mathematical expression cannot be solved because it lacks the "equal to" sign $(=)$, but it can be simplified. Mathematical expressions consist of at least two numbers or variables, at least one math operation, and a sentence. It's possible to multiply, divide, add, or subtract with this mathematical operation. A number, a variable, or a combination of numbers, variables, and operation symbols make up an expression. Two expressions joined by an equal sign form an equation. For instance: 8 plus 3 is the sum. The result of adding 8 and 3 is 11. written as 8 + 3.

Here,

-1/2(3-2/5)=negative three halves plus one fifth

As the expression is -1/2(3-2/5) as defined by "negative one half open parentheses three minus two fifths close parentheses," option B, which is "Negative three halves plus one fifth," will be the correct answer.
