Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction

Rewrite the whole as a fraction using  3  as the denominator :

   6 =  —  =  —————

Equivalent fraction : The fraction thus generated looks different but has the same value as the whole

Common denominator : The equivalent fraction and the other fraction involved in the calculation share the same denominator

Adding fractions that have a common denominator :

2.2       Adding up the two equivalent fractions

Add the two equivalent fractions which now have a common denominator

Combine the numerators together, put the sum or difference over the common denominator then reduce to lowest terms if possible:

When a fraction equals zero :

5.1    When a fraction equals zero ...

Where a fraction equals zero, its numerator, the part which is above the fraction line, must equal zero.

Now,to get rid of the denominator, Tiger multiplys both sides of the equation by the denominator.

Here's how:

 3y+7x+18

 ———————— • 3 = 0 • 3

    3    

Now, on the left hand side, the  3  cancels out the denominator, while, on the right hand side, zero times anything is still zero.

The equation now takes the shape :

  3y+7x+18  = 0

Equation of a Straight Line

5.2     Solve   3y+7x+18  = 0

Tiger recognizes that we have here an equation of a straight line. Such an equation is usually written y=mx+b ("y=mx+c" in the UK).

"y=mx+b" is the formula of a straight line drawn on Cartesian coordinate system in which "y" is the vertical axis and "x" the horizontal axis.

In this formula :

y tells us how far up the line goes

x tells us how far along

m is the Slope or Gradient i.e. how steep the line is

b is the Y-intercept i.e. where the line crosses the Y axis

The X and Y intercepts and the Slope are called the line properties. We shall now graph the line  3y+7x+18  = 0 and calculate its properties

Graph of a Straight Line :

 

 

Calculate the Y-Intercept :

Notice that when x = 0 the value of y is -6/1 so this line "cuts" the y axis at y=-6.00000

 y-intercept = -18/3  =  -6  

Calculate the X-Intercept :

When y = 0 the value of x is -18/7 Our line therefore "cuts" the x axis at x=-2.57143

 x-intercept = -18/7  = -2.57143  

Calculate the Slope :

Slope is defined as the change in y divided by the change in x. We note that for x=0, the value of y is -6.000 and for x=2.000, the value of y is -10.667. So, for a change of 2.000 in x (The change in x is sometimes referred to as "RUN") we get a change of -10.667 - (-6.000) = -4.667 in y. (The change in y is sometimes referred to as "RISE" and the Slope is m = RISE / RUN)

   Slope     = -4.667/2.000 = -2.333  

Geometric figure: Straight Line

 Slope = -4.667/2.000 = -2.333

 x-intercept = -18/7 = -2.57143

A catering business specializes in catering wedding receptions. They charge $400 for setting up the buffet and an additional $7.50 per guest. Mr. and Mrs. Smith want to spend no more than $1600 on the catering. Write and solve an inequality to determine the number of guests that can be invited to the reception.​

Answers

Answer:

x<=160

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given data

Charges= $400

Additional charges= $7.5 per guest

let the number of guests be x

let the total cost be y

the model for the situation is given as

y=mx+C

Step two:

given that y=1600

we can solve for x as

1600=7.5x+400

1600-400=7.5x

1200=7.5x

divide both sides by 7.5 we have

x=1200/7.5

x=160

Therefore the expected guest should not be more than 160

x<=160

What is a function?

Function is a type of relation, or rule, that maps one input to specific single output. An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more numbers and variables.

The absolute value function always gives a positive result, which is;

Steve invested money in the stock market. In the first year, his stock increased 50%. He paid his stockbroker $350 and then lost $400. He withdrew $300, and then his remaining investment doubled. Steve's investment is now worth $8100. How much was Steve's original investment?

Answers

Answer:

Original amount invested = $3400 .

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the original investment of Steve = $x

Stock increased in the first year = 50% of amount invested

Therefore total amount after one year = x + 0.5x = 1.5x

Commission paid to the stock broker = $350

Amount lost by him = $400

Amount withdrawn by him = $300

Total amount decreased from the amount after 1 year

= 1.5x - (350 + 400 + 300)

= 1.5x - 1050

This remaining amount is doubled, so the final amount

= 2(1.5x - 1050)

= 3x - 2100

This final amount is equal to $8100

3x - 2100 = 8100

3x = 8100 + 2100

3x = 10200

x = $3400

Therefore original amount invested in the stock market was $3400 .
