What is an Equation?

Equations are mathematical statements with two algebraic expressions flanking the equals (=) sign on either side.

It demonstrates the equality of the relationship between the expressions printed on the left and right sides.

Coefficients, variables, operators, constants, terms, expressions, and the equal to sign are some of the components of an equation. The "=" sign and terms on both sides must always be present when writing an equation.

Given data ,

Let the number of hours worked by Anthony = A

Let the number of hours worked by Josh = J

Let the number of hours worked by Dominic = D

Total number of hours worked by Anthony , Josh and Dominic = 7 hours

So , A + J + D = 7   be equation (1)

Now ,

Dominic worked twice as many hours as Anthony did with an extra hour

So , D = 2A + 1   be equation (2)

And ,

Dominic worked 5 more hours than Josh did

So , D = 5 + J   be equation (3)

Simplifying be equation (2) and be equation (3) , we get

2A + 1 = 5 + J

Subtracting 5 on both sides , we get

J = 2A - 4   be equation (4)

Now ,

Substituting the values of equation (2) , equation (3) and equation (4) in equation (1) , we get

A + 2A - 4 + 2A + 1 = 7

5A - 3 = 7

Adding 3 on both sides , we get

5A = 10

Divide by 5 on both sides , we get

A = 2

Therefore , the number of hours Anthony worked is 2 hours

Now , Substituting the value of A in equation (4) , we get

J = 4 - 4

J = 0 hours

Therefore , the number of hours Josh worked is 0 hours

Now , Substituting the value of A in equation (2) , we get

D = 4 + 1

D = 5 hours

Therefore , the number of hours Dominic worked is 5 hours

Hence , The number of hours worked by Anthony , Josh and Dominic is 2 hours , 0 hours and 5 hours respectively

Addison works at a pet store. She worked less than 40 hours last week.
Create an inequality that represents the number of hours, n, Addison worked last week.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of hours she worked last week be n. If Addison  worked less than 40 hours last week, this is expressed as:

n < 40 here < represents the less than sign. This means that Addison cannot work for any hour that is 40 and greater, she can only work for hours less than 40 e.g 39, 38hr etc.

The correct inequality expression is n< 40

dai is comparing how many trading cards he has with his friend maura. initially they find that dai has four more cards than twice the number maura has

Answers

Answer:

B) [tex]2n+4[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The question states that Dai has 4 more cards than twice the number of cards Maura has.

"more" - add

"twice" - multiply by 2

Let n be equal to the number of cards that Maura has.

Let D be equal to the number of cards that Dai has.

When we translate this into an equation, we would get something that looks like...

[tex]D=2n+4[/tex]

Since Dai has four more cards than twice the number of cards Maura has, 2 times the number of cards Maura has plus four is equal to the number of cards Dai has. Hopefully this is easier to understand written like an equation!

Therefore, the expression would be [tex]2n+4[/tex].

I hope this helps!

The table below shows the relationship between the number of cars sold and the amount of money earned by the car salesperson. Is the amount of money earned, in dollars, proportional to the number of cars sold?

Answers

Answer:

No, it is not proportional.

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be determined by looking at the first two items in the chart. I have looked at them all to find a certain pattern, but there wasn't any. The salesman earns $250 for one car sale, and he also earns $600 for two car sales, while this seems like it's just adding a $100 bonus, if you look at the third item on the chart adds a $200 bonus. You could be thinking that this is just adding a $100 bonus for how many cars were sold before, but then you move onto the fourth item on the chart. Which would give you $1,300 if the pattern was continued, yet instead the amount listed is $1,076.
